With no new testimony, what then is the point of watching?

As long as the trial is short and dull, McConnell wins. Very few people even know who John Bolton and Mick Mulvaney are, let alone whether they avoided having to testify.

If the Republican Senators weren't toads, they would rid themselves of Trump over his handling of tariffs:

So here’s the story: Donald Trump has abused the powers of his office to threaten a U.S. ally. His threat is probably illegal; his refusal to produce documents about his decision process is definitely illegal. And his claims about the motivation for his actions don’t pass the laugh test.

You probably think that I’m talking about Trump’s attempt to pressure Ukraine into producing political dirt on Joe Biden by withholding aid, and the subsequent cover-up — you know, the stuff for which he has been impeached (and that half the country believes should lead to his removal from office). But there’s another, somewhat similar story: his repeated threats to impose prohibitive tariffs on imports of automobiles from Europe.

Granted, the auto tariff story isn’t as vile as the Ukraine story, and it poses less of a direct threat to a fair election. But it’s recognizably part of the same syndrome: abuse of presidential power, contempt for the rule of law, and dishonesty about motivations.

Some background: U.S. tariffs — taxes on imports — are normally set the same way we set other taxes, through legislation that must pass Congress and then be signed by the president. The law does, however, give the president discretion to impose temporary tariffs under certain circumstances, for example to give U.S. industries a breathing space in the face of sudden import surges, to counter foreign export subsidies or to protect national security (Section 232).

Until Trump, Section 232 cases were rare. He has, however, used the national security justification for tariffs with abandon, and zero regard for plausibility. Canadian aluminum poses a national security risk? Really?

And so it was that in 2018 the Trump administration announced that it was beginning a Section 232 investigation of auto imports, especially from Europe and Japan. Every trade expert I know considered the notion that German or Japanese cars constitute a threat to national security absurd. Nonetheless, in 2019 a report from the Commerce Department concluded that auto imports do, indeed, endanger national security.

What was the basis for this conclusion? Well, we don’t actually know — because the Trump administration has refused to release the report.

This stonewalling is clearly illegal. The statute requires that all portions of the Commerce report that don’t contain classified or proprietary information be published in the Federal Register, and it’s hard to believe that any of the report contains such information, let alone the whole thing. Furthermore, Congress inserted a provision in a spending bill last month specifically requiring that the Trump administration turn over the report.

Why won’t Trump obey the law and hand over the document? My guess is that his people are afraid to let anyone see the Commerce report because it’s embarrassingly thin and incompetent. To be honest, I have some doubts about whether the report even exists.

So in other words... America wants the Senate to handle this like adults after the children in the house did what children do.

Rather than sitting in anticipation Jack. Stewing, while awaiting others posts so you can challenge them. You should pay attention to facts that are being posted. Do this, so you don’t appear to be little more than an angry troll; ignorant to the truth.

Does anybody really question whether the President is capable of what he’s charged with? No one is really making the argument that Donald Trump would never do such a thing, because of course we know that he would, and of course we know that he did.

It’s a somewhat different question though to ask, okay, it’s pretty obvious, whether we can say it publicly or we can’t say it publicly, we all know what we’re dealing here with this President. But does he really need to be removed? And this is why he needs to be removed: Donald Trump chose Rudy Giuliani over his own intelligence agencies. He chose Rudy Giuliani over his own FBI Director. He chose Rudy Giuliani over his own national security advisers.

When all of them were telling him this Ukraine 2016 stuff is kooky, crazy Russian propaganda. He chose not to believe them. He chose to believe Rudy Giuliani. That makes him dangerous to us, to our country. That was Donald Trump’s choice. Now, why would Donald Trump believe a man like Rudy Giuliani over a man like Christopher Wray? Okay. Why would anyone in their right mind believe Rudy Giuliani over Christopher Wray?

Because he wanted to and because what Rudy was offering him was something that would help him personally. And what Christopher Wray was offering him was merely the truth. What Christopher Wray was offering him was merely the information he needed to protect his country and its elections, but that’s not good enough. What’s in it for him? What’s in it for Donald Trump? This is why he needs to be removed.

Now, you may be asking how much damage can he really do in the next several months until the election? A lot. A lot of damage.

What you mean is you're like every other Trump voter (excluding the rich ones): too slow, too incurious to learn what is happening all around you. Instead, you miss all the opportunities to make life easier that are everywhere in America, but only for those who pay attention, never for those who already know it all and are certain they have all the commonsense they will ever need.

A flash from the past - November 29, 2018:

The third remarkable thing about Cohen’s plea was its substance. The president of the United States’ personal lawyer admitted to lying to Congress about the president’s business activities with a hostile foreign power, in order to support the president’s story. In any rational era, that would be earthshaking. Now it’s barely a blip. Over the past two years, we’ve become accustomed to headlines like “President’s Campaign Manager Convicted of Fraud” and “President’s Personal Lawyer Paid for Adult Actress’s Silence.” We’re numb to it all. But these are the sorts of developments that would, under normal circumstances, end a presidency.

t-michael-cohens-plea/577015/

Trump, who has followed this drama obsessively, knew that his personal lawyer was lying to Congress about his business activities, and stood by while it happened.

A blast from the past – the 20th Century:

Year after year, Mr. Trump lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer when his results were compared with detailed information the I.R.S. compiles on an annual sampling of high-income earners. His core business losses in 1990 and 1991 — more than $250 million each year — were more than double those of the nearest taxpayers in the I.R.S. information for those years.

From 1986 through 1988, while his core businesses languished under increasingly unsupportable debt, Mr. Trump made millions of dollars in the stock market by suggesting that he was about to take over companies. But the figures show that he lost most, if not all, of those gains after investors stopped taking his takeover talk seriously.

Trump has filed lawsuits against his banks and accounting firm to prevent them from turning over tax returns and other financial records and therefore we can’t place a number on Trump’s more recent incompetence at running his businesses.

www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/05/07/us/politics/donald-trump-taxes.
html

Trump, at 73, is as financial incompetent and fiscally untruthful as he was in his 40’s. How can you know for sure, since he has 3 Supreme Court cases pending to keep his tax returns secret when laws say he is suppose to make his returns public? You only need to look at the accelerating National Debt to know that. If he actually understood money, and his business history says he does not, the debt would decrease during boom times, or at least decelerate the increase.

That's something that I've heard my entire freakin' life, but it's never been more true than it is today with $22 Trillion+ debt.


That being said, it's not idiots like you that I'm worried about, when stories like these come out. It's the rest of the world that somehow still thinks it's a good idea to base every other currency against ours, and those who would like nothing more than to untie the US dollar from Oil. (Russia IS on that list, BTW)


Because of this, Russ Buettner and Susanne Craig and the NYT in general are putting out propaganda that is tantamount to treason.

Bullshit dude. If fat, lazy, stupid Americans die from the CO2 that we've dumped in the air, than EVERY FUCKING BODY dies from the CO2 that we've dumped in the air.

Stay on point, retard.

If the ONLY thing keeping any value behind the US Dollar is faith, than articles like this serve only to destroy that faith worldwide.

What? Do you believe that Putin didn't read that fucking article, genius?
