[FONT=&quot]Cohen’s admission makes it harder for Republicans to claim that Trump didn’t violate the law. But it doesn’t really matter. For many Republicans, Trump remains uncorrupt—indeed, anticorrupt—because what they fear most isn’t the corruption of American law; it’s the corruption of America’s traditional identity. And in the struggle against that form of corruption—the kind embodied by Cristhian Rivera—Trump isn’t the problem. He’s the solution.[/FONT]

such crap. "traditional identity" unless you mean crappy trade agreements, NK being kicked down the road.. an unresponsive and bloated bureauracy only cranking out regs, and unable to serve vets.

I am trying to think of this awful felony...conspiring to pay off bimbos? maybe with campaign money?
Is that it? Ir it what what the definition of "is" is?
OMG the horror.

What’s a matter noisy, did you see yourself? Harsh reality of being a Trump supporter.

ROFL. it's the same crap as "white nationalism" when it's really economic nationalism.
The color that is important is green -not white.

when I start listening to racists charges from the left -stick a fork in me -i'm done

That’s your problem, you don’t listen or learn, you were done a long time ago.

What a load of crap. If you want to know what libs are up to, pay close attention to what they accuse other's of.

No need to get that deep with it -- they know Trump is corrupt -- they just don't want to admit to a bunch of libs that he is corrupt and that libs were right.

To help them stomach his corruption, they like to partake in fun whataboutism pursuits like "but Obama" or "what about Hillary" -- sometimes when they get bored with that, they like to take solace in the fact that as long as Trump pisses off the libs, then it can't be wrong.
 
ITs the best way Ive seen to explain how in the world they think HRC is more corrupt than Individual-1.

I have nothing to add to this most excellent post, ... just want to bump it. (sometimes, reading something twice helps it sink in more)
