Got a sick feeling in the pit of the stomach that Trump just sucker punched us. Again. That skeevy gun discussion round table, following the cancelling of the daily presser, was crafted for the sole purpose of drawing attention away from what was going on elsewhere. Dont look at Mueller. Dont look at Hicks statement about lies. Dont think about what any of that means. Just focus on an hour of live lies and distortions and pretense. His gross insincerity and feigned concern about shooting victims oozed out of the television and onto the carpet. Just like during the campaign when hed call news conferences to get the free coverage for himself while drawing it away from anyone else. Its the one thing he does masterfully.
Makes me sick that I fell for it, pearls clutched and all.

The Mueller team probably works best when the press isn't hounding them

(1,009 posts)I rarely pay attention to what he says. I dont watch his press conferences or any press conferences. I pay attention to whats actually happening. Whats going on with mueller...what policies are being enacted/destroyed.
Nothing out of that mans mouth is truthful. They all lie. Whats the point?
I think there also should be a journalist team who are actually reporting every day what is going on under our nose policy wise. The media is not paying attention. We need to know. Everything.

Mueller all set to take Manafort to Trial,Son in Law in deep shit with the State of New York. His office Pet announces she is leaving after the next Pay Period.

(7,501 posts)I've said for a long time. There are a lot of things Trump would rather talk about than Treason. Didn't go watch I knew it was a dog and pony show. Mueller wasn't distracted and that's what matters. Don't beat yourself up it's like drinking out of a firehose. None of this is normal.
