He was selling secrets to our enemies. They'll probably prove it when he goes to court facing espionage charges.

We've had some great presidents and others we aren't so proud of, but I never imagined that we'd have one who was selling our secrets to our adversaries. He not only needs to be punished to the fullest extent of the law - prison, solitary, I don't care - and there needs to be equal punishment for anyone who enabled him! He needs to be made an example of which scares his enablers in Congress witless!

You don't avoid punishment for espionage, unless you're found not guilty. He should never be free again.

No news bulletins, no retrospectives, no "biographies" - seven years of non-stop coverage was more than enough.

I figured I'd tune in again when the election was finally over. It never dawned on me that anyone would think of voting for this offensive blowhard. And he got three million fewer votes which needs to be brought up whenever anybody says he "won."

And it worked so well for him he can't give it up. Even when he was supposed to be serving in office, he still held his "rallies."

Some of that time was spent watching Fox, but I’ve always suspected that he was still running his business from the WH. Jr. was too much a coke head to be trusted with much and Eric appears to be dumb as a rock, so it’s doubtful Trump would fully trust them to run the business.

In addition, mornings are prime time to connect with people in Europe. Private phone calls with Putin with no aides around? MBS?

There’s that old saying that keeps stomping around in my mind’s ears: “we’ve established what you are. Now we’re just haggling over price.”

How much money did he whore for?

This nonsense that he kept them for bragging rights or because he likes to collect things or because he is a hoarder is just stupid beyond belief. This remains the 2 billion dollars (at least) question.
