H Wayne See, I was following you to start with there, but then you had to go and play the Nazi card. You know what Godwins law is? There are plenty of valid criticisms of Trump, I can entirely understand people being vehemently opposed to him, but the whole "He's an evil white supremacist" schtick is getting old. When you try and claim that, when he quite clearly is not, that just makes people stop listening to you.
To clarify: Of course Trump is doing all he can to resist the inquiry. His political opponents are doing whatever they can to destroy him, it would be naive to expect him to do otherwise. If he were passive about it, they would hang whatever half assed made up shit they could on him. Many people (yourself included it would seem) are ready to believe literally anything bad about Trump, and are eager to spread half truths and misinformation if it seems politically expedient to them.
Is Trump clean? Of course not, he's a politician, they're all dirty. All of them. My point, which I stand by, was that the left (of which I've been a part since the 90's) is now clutching at whatever straws they can, because they've doubled down on the Russia narrative way past the point of no return. If you want a card carrying progressives affirmation on this, I recommend Jimmy Dore. He's part of the Young Turks, that should be bona fide enough.

Below are the words Elizabeth spoke when she visited her troops in the field as they prepared for battle, during the nine-day onslaught by the Spanish Armada.
My loving people, we have been persuaded by some, that are careful of our safety, to take heed how we commit ourselves to armed multitudes, for fear of treachery; but I assure you, I do not desire to live to distrust my faithful and loving people. Let tyrants fear; I have always so behaved myself that, under God, I have placed my chiefest strength and safeguard in the loyal hearts and good will of my subjects. And therefore I am come amongst you at this time, not as for my recreation or sport, but being resolved, in the midst and heat of the battle, to live or die amongst you all; to lay down, for my God, and for my kingdom, and for my people, my honour and my blood, even the dust. I know I have but the body of a weak and feeble woman; but I have the heart of a king, and of a king of England, too; and think foul scorn that Parma or Spain, or any prince of Europe, should dare to invade the borders of my realms: to which, rather than any dishonour should grow by me, I myself will take up arms; I myself will be your general, judge, and rewarder of every one of your virtues in the field. I know already, by your forwardness, that you have deserved rewards and crowns; and we do assure you, on the word of a prince, they shall be duly paid you. In the mean my lieutenant general shall be in my stead, than whom never prince commanded a more noble and worthy subject; not doubting by your obedience to my general, by your concord in the camp, and by your valour in the field, we shall shortly have a famous victory over the enemies of my God, of my kingdom, and of my people.
Queen Elizabeth I - 1588
Following the defeat of the Spanish Armada, Britain became the dominant world power and remained so for centuries.

al karg Well there's a whole host of possible reasons. My personal favourites are:
Tribalism. Trump attacks them as "fake news", so he's perceived as a threat that needs to be vanquished. This is exacerbated by the fact that traditional media is dying, has been for over a decade, so Trump is a convenient externalised threat on which they can focus their ills.
Doubling down. They've dug the hole, and it's too late to back out. If they concede that they've been partisan to the point of bias, what little credibility they have left is shot.
Personal agendas. The decline of journalism as a lucrative career means that the majority of people are drawn to it for ideological reasons. The profession is beset with people who are there to promote their cause, and are actively trying to convince as many people as possible, by any means necessary. This precludes nuance and compromise; when you're attempting to sway large populations, issues tend to boil down to black and white, win or lose.
Corporate meddling. I know this is the one the right focuses on primarily, but it's still relevant. The MSM is bought and paid for, and they know who signs their paychecks.
Finally, and probably most importantly, revenue. Politics is boring. Trump gets clicks. Like I said, this business model is on the way out. They need to monetize whatever they can, as cynically as possible.

When did I say he wasn't? You started this pointless argument by trying to imply that the people he cited bore some responsibility. I've never defended this psychopath in the slightest.
You know, you're a fair bit smarter than most of the orange man bad tryhard trolls we get around here, but you always seem to come in with your prepared mental list of assumptions as to why all of us are wrong and dumb. Honestly, if you tried a less openly confrontational approach, you might get somewhere. Styx is a minarchist, former satanist, anti war, pro drug, pro gay marriage, we get all sorts of people here, not just mindless neocon puppets. You seem to let your preconceptions get the better of you. The best way to get through to someone is to listen to them. The best way to change someone's mind, paradoxically enough, is to agree with them. But hey, you do you.

ChuckE Cheese First of all, poorly spelled childish insults do very little to encourage people to listen to what you have to say or take you seriously. Secondly, if I were to choose, a Bush era neocon lawyer would be the last person I would pick for SCOTUS. But you know who really got him across the line? The inept, insane Democrats. Had they attacked him on the 4th amendment, there would have been a broad coalition of support, but noooo, they had to go for the most obviously fake, corrupt, underhanded, scandal mongering tactics they could. Whip up a little sexually prurient hysteria, and the mob will come screaming for his blood. Is that really a precedent that anyone with an IQ higher than room temperature could let stand? Don't like someone? Just throw some baseless allegations at them, no need for any pesky evidence or due process, it's just that simple! Please, try to think these things through before you come with the high and mighty allegations next time.
