Irritating....
You've got Jim Comey leaking his (classified) memos to the press to get an investigation started, you've got Mueller's team leaking like a sieve every time they think they have something (also feloniously), you've got the DOJ and FBI working to circumvent real investigations as long as the day, and somehow I'm supposed to think it's Donald Trump that should be in trouble for paying off a whore.
Criminal, the lot of 'em! If we had a press worth anything, the reality of all of this would be made obvious, but we don't.
I was wondering this morning, why on earth would a man with Donald Trump's track record even bother trying to cover up an affair through payoffs? I'm not saying I don't believe he did that, but it's not like the country didn't know all about his proclivities before they voted him into office. Even Melania should have known what she was getting.
It's a really stupid and unnecessary snare he laid for himself.
Well, he's more or less admitted he did the payoffs, I think, but agreed that the nation knew what it was getting. We were getting a ladies' man in the White House, or we were getting the woman who enabled her own ladies' man in the White House.
Come to think of it, that probably explains why the Clintons used to get along with the Trumps so well, no?
