Yep we knew Flynn was shady but it says nothing about Trump. I kknow you leftie wankers want Trump to die but there are still rational people in this country

I don't want Trump to die.
I just want him voted out in 2020.
.
Edited to add - I just read about Trump's diet. He eats nothing but junk food!
His standard meal is 2 Big Macs, 2 filet o fish and a chocolate malted milkshake.
Otherwise it's KFC, pizza and coke.
.
Forget impeachment, he'll die of a heart attack before 2020!

United States President Donald Trump has launched a fresh attack on the credibility of the FBI and again denied asking its former director, James Comey, to stop investigating his now disgraced ex-national security adviser.
In a series of tweets, Mr Trump questioned the direction of the FBI and claimed its reputation was "in Tatters — worst in History!".
Former US attorney-general Eric Holder immediately hit back at Mr Trump.
"The FBI's reputation is not in 'tatters'. It's composed of the same dedicated men and women who have always worked there and who do a great, apolitical job," he wrote on Twitter.
"You'll find integrity and honesty at FBI headquarters and not at 1600 Penn Ave right now."
Mr Trump also tweeted that he never asked Mr Comey to stop investigating Michael Flynn, the President's former national security adviser — a statement at odds with an account Mr Comey himself has given.
Mr Comey, who had been investigating allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 US election, was fired by Mr Trump in May.
He told the US Senate Intelligence Committee in June he believed his dismissal was related to the Russia probe, and said Mr Trump asked him to end the investigation of Flynn.
"I never asked Comey to stop investigating Flynn. Just more Fake News covering another Comey lie!" Mr Trump said on Twitter.
.
First of all - the WORST reputation belongs to J. Edgar Hoover.
Secondly - it is just the same old thing! Trump seems to be going out of his way to piss off the FBI because they won't do things his way.
He simply cannot tolerate a lack of supreme power in every aspect of his life. To not be able to immediately fire anyone who does not immediately kiss his ass is so obviously infuriating for him.

Nope America needs to be completely rebuilt and Trump is the only possible way to do that

You need money to build stuff.
And the new tax bill just gives plenty of money to the rich and powerful and adds 1.4 trillion to the national debt.
Build all you want, but every day Trump is erasing more and more of America's role as a global power.
That's the problem with nationalism. It's hard to distinguish from isolationism.

Everybody who knows nothing about the tax system or how wealth is created and distributed claims the same crap.
There are some folks out there who do understand that people should be allowed to keep the money they have earned instead of giving it to the government.
The government doesn't build things, make things or create money. The government STEALS money

And what of those who DO know of these strange things you speak of? I trust you would believe them.
The three tax brackets are fine, but it's the deductions that are dodgy. And lets face it, if you're surviving on minimum wage, you cannot afford a kick ass accountant adept in finding all the loopholes.

I read once that his favorite meal is a well-done steak with ketchup.

Yeah,
A hundred dollar Wagu beef filet steak - very well done. Destroyed and doused.
There ought to be a law.

United States special counsel Robert Mueller is reported to have subpoenaed President Donald Trump's financial records from Germany's Deutsche Bank, as part of his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
In a statement, the bank said it cooperates with official investigators but would not discuss individual cases.
A person close to the matter said Deutsche Bank received the subpoena several weeks ago to provide information on certain money and credit transactions.
But despite multiple US media outlets reporting that Mr Mueller's investigation had expanded to include Mr Trump's personal financial records, one of the President's lawyers said that was not the case.
"We have confirmed that the news reports that the special counsel had subpoenaed financial records relating to the President are false," Mr Sekulow said in a statement.
"No subpoena has been issued or received. We have confirmed this with the bank and other sources."
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders also said the reports were false.
"This is another example of the media going too far too fast and we don't see it moving in that direction," Ms Sanders said.
During a photo opportunity with senators at the White House on Tuesday, Mr Trump declined to answer shouted questions from reporters about whether Mr Mueller had crossed a line by asking Deutsche Bank for information.
Earlier this year, Mr Trump said pursuing his personal finances would be a breach of Mr Mueller's role as special counsel.
Mr Trump has repeatedly denied any financial connections with Russia.
Deutsche Bank has loaned the Trump Organisation hundreds of millions of dollars for real estate ventures and is one of the few major lenders that has given large amounts of credit to Mr Trump in the past decade.
A string of bankruptcies at his hotel and casino businesses during the 1990s made most of Wall Street wary of extending him credit.
