    @YankeeFan only expects Trump to get things done that actually get done. Everything else - what do you expect? He is just like Obama.

    Its a clever message board strategy gambit.

    Remind me, who was the special prosecutor in that case?

    Or, did the FBI and DOJ handle it on their own?

    Oh good Tebow. An investigation based on probable cause? Then no case ever could be investigated because no investigation could meet that standard. You start with a crime or possible crime. You investigate. That investigation leads to probable cause which leads to things like warrants. Warrants lead to more evidence.

    It's a Republican Congress. He's a Republican president. They have a clean run at whatever they want, pretty much, and they can't do it. Minority governments in parliamentary democracies get more done. Without a tenth of the shady shit. It's incredible.

    Sorry - I missed in this post ...


    .... where you were complaining about only about investigations led by special prosecutors.

    I mistakenly thought you were complaining about using investigations as fishing expeditions to try to create some smoke. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

    Good effort, but not quite. "Rise in the oceans began to slow" is not the same as the oceans receding.

    You were fooled by the youtube title.

    He didn't say that. You know that. Stop doing this.

    I dunno. That bank is tiny. It doesn't take much of a mortgage (and we know what the loan is for) for it to equal a decent percentage of its loan portfolio. That is the kind of bank that couldn't service Bill Gates or Warren Buffett. It makes the Bailey Building & Loan look like Citibank. There may be something shady there, just because we're talking about Paul Manafort and the guy oozes shady. But the loan itself isn't proof of anything. That kind of portfolio, while reckless, probably isn't as uncommon at the community bank level as you are thinking.
