ORIGINAL: DaddySatyr Lewandowski and Bossie Reince Priebus I will agree with you, to a degree: If President Trump survives all this bullshit and the economy keeps going the way it is, he's almost a shoe-in in 2020 The economy is exploding Taking off like a rocket Except, what you are failing to comprehend, is that the economy is booming under programs and acts by his predecessor, not any of Trump's efforts. You know, kinda like Obama was blamed for the poor economy in his first year, that was basically under bush programs. And, strictly speaking, the president has little to do with how the economy is going, unless his proposals are accepted by congress, who as history proved with previous presidents of both parties, congress (even a congress controlled by one's own party) can fuck an administration, and seems to take pride in doing so. Bush sr got fucked by congress on his 'no new taxes' promise, simply because there were enough Republicans that sided with dems during his term. Bush two got fucked a couple of times on good economic programs he proposed, and by the end of his second term, the economy had tanked. Obama got fucked by his own party on a few programs, that started as good ideas until spend happy dems in congress got them, and then got the repubs on board to help fuck him over good. And unfortunately, Trump doesnt care who he pisses off, which is why the Obamacare repeal tanked, his tax bill is getting fucked over, and congress is going to fuck him on the budget. As for his overseas bank accounts, the simple fact is that we will not know if this was a desperate fishing expedition until the records are made public, at which time you will either be saying 'I told you so' or you will be saying "the fucking bastard lied." Or you will be in denial. The worst thing about this who thing is that even if Trump is innocent, his bullshit tweets are making him look like either he is guilty and is trying to cover it up, or he did nothing wrong and he is making himself look guilty and acting like an idiot. Oh, and his lawyers claiming that the President of the United States cannot obstruct justice better go back and look at the Nixon/watergate case, one of the charges considered against president Nixon was obstruction of justice due to his firing of the first special prosecutor.
