@WilliamHMusic-oldschool I'd say he's the most successful criminal president in history -- successful in his criminality. And how much cash is he investing in Republican Senatorial campaigns as bribes/jury tampering?

Vanadyan Leave out "career," as the Founders were career politicians. And there was corruption in the Continental Congress during the "revolution". Elbridge Gerry, of Massachusetts, invented gerrymandering -- which was a huge scandal. (He was also one of three who refused to sign the Constitution.) And Hamilton was a corrupt snake. During the "revolution," due to lack of money, the Congress paid some troops with IOUs. After the war, there was a depression, and the veterans needed cash, so Hamilton and his friends went around buying up the IOUs for pennies on the dollar, then turned them into the gov't for 100 pennies on the dollar.

Dersopwitz premise is hogwash. There are politicians who get elected for their own benefit, not for the public interest.

@AntiAtheismIsUnstoppable Except that it is what Dershowitz was saying. He said that the illegal campaign efforts -- they are illegal in Federal statute -- by Trump vis-a-vis Ukraine are not impeachable. And, in fact, he also said that to be impeachable an act -- not a "motive" -- must be a violation of actual statute, which he denies happened. In short, Dershowitz is a bald-faced liars, and you LOVE lies so long as they protect Trump from the rule of law.

@seriously6654 Clinton was attempted payback for Nixon, moron. They were attempting, in their own current words, to overturn that election. That was an abuse of power by the House, as a private sexual affair does not subvert the Constitution or threaten the gov't/system of laws. And how CORRUPT was that abuse of power? Henry Hyde, who lead the mob, was at the same time having an extramarital affair with a woman whose marriage he broke up. And at the same time, Gingrich was deposed as House Speaker in part because of his extramarital "dalliances". He was to be replaced by Johnston, but Johnston was Outed" as having an extramarital affair. It wasn't the Democrats who exposed the illegal quid-pro-quo; it was the anonymous whistleblower, who essentially reported that the military aid to Ukraine was being held up. In order for that to have been LEGAL, Trump would have OBEYED THE LAW and informed Congress at minimum as to WHY he was withholding it. He didn't, so violated that LEGAL REQUIREMENT. He also violated the Congressional authorization, which direct the aid to Ukraine, and stipulated when it MUST be delivered, which authorization he signed -- then violated. You Trump supporters are most tiresome because you're all so stupid. You don't know relevant from irrelevant, can't handle a whole fact when you can ignore the parts you don't like. You are supporting an effort to destroy the Constitution -- not that I expect you to understand the enormous consequences of that. If you anti-Americans succeed, prepare yourself for working in a coal mine with no pay.

@chadclemen The allergy is yours. Bachman does everything she can to avoid not only answering the question, but avoid the question itself. That's called DISHONESTY. DISHONESTY is the opposite of TRUTH.

Republicans as patriots: "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel." -- Dr. Johnson. "PATRIOTISM, n. Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name. "In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit that it is the first." -- Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary.
