confusing chart, you're confused
49%, aka less than half, of Repugs think that, even after their boy Trash was handed the WH by Assange and Comey, the country is in wrong direction, as guided by Trash.
Where on this chart does it specify Republicans?
What I see is Texans believing the country is headed in the right direction increased by 17%, and "wrong direction" decreased by 18%, since the previous poll which happened during the Obama Presidency and when Clinton was expected to win the election.
‘He was in business with the cartoon caricature of corruption’: Maddow breaks down Trump-Azerbaijan report
“there is a reason we should expect this White House to do everything in his power to keep secret his finances and his business dealings.”
when WikiLeaks was instead just wholesale dumping U.S. State Department cables into the public domain, one of the things we learned was actually about a funny thing that happened to this giant company, Bechtel,”
Adam Davidson’s New Yorker piece published Monday that explained the relationship between Trump, Azerbaijan, and oligarchs tied to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard (an Iranian military organization that low-key provides financial support to terrorist organizations).
the company that landed Azerbaijan’s road contract “is a company that is believed to be controlled by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard”—an Iranian military organization that preserves “internal order” in the country and “wages war on behalf of Iranian interests.” As Maddow pointed out, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard is a “supporter of international terrorist movements” and “deeply sanctioned by the U.S. government.”
it’s often “awkward, hard” and “illegal” for companies that sponsor terrorists “to move money around,” adding it’s important that monetary transactions “appear to be legitimate business transactions.”
Maddow then turned to the never-opened Trump International Hotel & Tower Baku, a planned building in Azerbaijan that “on the surface makes no financial sense.” The hotel was planned miles away from any other major luxury hotel, with no access to the Caspian Sea.
“It really just doesn’t make sense on the surface,” Maddow repeated, later asking “why was this built, how could this ever make financial sense?”
Trump family “abandoned this project” a month after Trump’s election, but “not before [Trump] received millions of dollars in that deal”—a deal forged between Trump and billionaire transport minister Mammadov (the same Mammadov that helped the Iranian Revolutionary Guard launder money to terrorist organizations).
Maddow said while U.S. companies are free to do business with any company in the world, they are not free to conduct business if funds originate from companies tied to terrorism. “You have to know,” Maddow explained. “Looking the other way is not a defense.”
“You are expected to do your due diligence,” she added.
“Trump and his family were in business with the cartoon caricature of corruption,” Maddow said of the president’s ties to Azerbaijan’s Mammadov. The host pointed out, “It is a violation of U.S. law” to do business with a company that helps fund terrorism.

DONALD TRUMP’S WORST DEAL

You’ll never guess who tweeted something false that he saw on TV
The segment aired sometime before 6:30 a.m. Trump tweeted at a little after 7.
But notice what the segment doesn’t say: That those detainees were all released by Obama. Because they weren’t.
Donald J. Trump
✔@realDonaldTrump
122 vicious prisoners, released by the Obama Administration from Gitmo, have returned to the battlefield. Just another terrible decision!
6:04 AM - 7 Mar 2017
But the critical detail — added by Trump on the fly — is that the vast majority of those who’ve reengaged were released under George W. Bush.
As you see, 122 of those released have reengaged — 113 of them released under the Bush administration.
Another 86 are suspected to have reengaged — 75 under Bush.
And one of the nine for whom Obama should be culpable? Killed in Yemen. Another one was already killed, according to the DNI report, along with 29 of those released by Bush.

Hey Trash fellators, y'all elected one of a PVLoser so-called Pres.
Trash refuses NatSec briefings because he's so smart, but watches Fox as a guide to his so-called Presidency.
Read again, boutons. Maybe you're posting too many articles too fast - that chart doesn't do your side any favors.

Another TRASH LIE
Busted: Trump met and ‘warmly greeted’ Russian ambassador during 2016 campaign
Despite repeatedly denying that he met with the Russians during his 2016 campaign, it has been revealed that Donald Trump spoke with and “warmly greeted” Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak prior to giving a foreign policy speech on April 27, 2016.
“A few minutes before he made those remarks, Mr. Trump met at a VIP reception with Russia’s ambassador to the U.S., Sergey Ivanovich Kislyak. Mr. Trump warmly greeted Mr. Kislyak and three other foreign ambassadors who came to the reception,” the Journal reported.
The Journal reported that Trump used the speech to praise Russia, saying he looked forward to working with President Vladimir Putin.

After Trump's bad weekend, online betting site says he probably won't last the year
British betting behemoth, Ladbrokes is speculating that Trump may not even finish out the year in office, offering 2 to 1 odds that Trump is replaced before the end of this year.
To put it in perspective, those are the same odds that he’ll be replaced in 2021 (meaning Jan. 20, 2021).
There’s even money that he’ll serve his full term — meaning noPresident Mike Pence— and 4 to 5 odds that he’ll leave office before the end of his term.
As an added bit of trolling, Ladbrokes give 6 to 4 odds that he’ll visit Russia before the end of the year.

Trump Team Asked About ‘Military Tactical Vehicles’ For Inaugural Parade: Emails
“Such support would be out of guidelines,” one Pentagon official wrote.
The month after Donald Trump won the presidential election, his staff asked the Pentagon to send photographs of military tactical vehicles that he could include in his inaugural parade,
Trump, who has spoken favorably of public displays of military prowess, looked into deploying heavy military equipment in his inaugural parade. Asked in December about plans to use military equipment during the occasion, a Trump aide refused to address the matter on the record

‘Let someone else run the country’: Trump supporters revolt against president’s excessive tweeting
http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/let-...e+Raw+Story%29
sooner or later, the Repugs will "let somebody else run the country", aka, Pence.
i doubt trump is running the country now.
Repug establishment is running the country ... down, and they're unstoppable. Stolen elections have consequences.
35% approval rating. Sad!
Shocking Poll Shows Majority Want Trump To Resign If His Campaign Colluded With Russia
If the Trump campaign worked with Russia to sway the 2016 election, the American people want the president to start packing his bags.
http://www.politicususa.com/2017/03/...iticus+USA+%29
I'm sure the Repugs want him gone ASAP, since Pence would be less distracting and would sign everything, just like Trash does.
I saw a different compilation of Trash bullying inanimate objects, hilarious.
Trump's next scandal is already starting to simmer.
Back in February the petulant man child told reporters that he “had no dealings in Russia.
Trump and his companies have been associated with at least 10 wealthy Russians that have alleged ties to criminal activities and money laundering, they include;
• A member of the firm that developed the Trump SoHo Hotel in New York is a twice-convicted felon who spent a year in prison for stabbing a man and later scouted for Trump investments in Russia.
• An investor in the SoHo project was accused by Belgian authorities in 2011 in a $55 million money-laundering scheme.
• Three owners of Trump condos in Florida and Manhattan were accused in federal indictments of belonging to a Russian-American organized crime group and working for a major international crime boss based in Russia.
• A former mayor from Kazakhstan was accused in a federal lawsuit filed in Los Angeles in 2014 of hiding millions of dollars looted from his city, some of which was spent on three Trump SoHo units.
• A Ukrainian owner of two Trump condos in Florida was indicted in a money-laundering scheme involving a former prime minister of Ukraine.
Notice the heavy interest in the Trump Soho property?
Now, there is certainly no crime in a real estate developer having investors and in selling units in his property, that’s how they make a living.
But the catch here is the investors and buyers themselves.
Buying foreign real estate is a well known practice for money laundering and protecting illegal or ill gotten gains from seizure back home.
Trump has never even been accused of any wrongdoing in these deals, much less charged.
But the subject of money laundering is an uncomfortable one for Das Donald, since he’s already admitted to it and paid a fine in the past for it. To quote the report:
Money laundering was an issue for Trump's Taj Mahal Casino in Atlantic City, which was fined $10 million in 2015 for failing to report su ious transactions.
Federal rules are designed to protect the U.S. financial system from being used as a safe haven for dirty money and transnational crimes, Jennifer Shasky Calvery, then-director of the U.S. Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCen), said at the time.
It was the largest penalty the agency ever levied against a casino since reporting requirements began in 2003, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Hmmmm. This is by no means any kind of indictment, but it is an interesting starting point for an investigation.
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/0...to-being-outed
I think the money laundering, seen in do ents, is much easier to prove than collusion. But I'm counting on Flynn to take Trash out to the dumpster.

He's not giving the senate anything to be worth offering immunity, so don't bet on that happening.
Mr. Trump can pardon him now.
Pence would be a best case scenario for the GOP. He would be nothing more than a yes man, and would probably increase their chances in 2020 by a whole lot. If Trump were to somehow stumble his way through four years there would be a very slim chance he even sniffs re-election.
If Dear Leader goes under he's taking the GOP down with him in 2018 and 2020. You think Jimmy Carter could have ever gotten elected without Watergate?
