Barely knew him.

Maybe someone with half a brain told him to shut up? I can't think of who that might be, though.

the Khashoggi murder?

I think he's going full throttle, bullying those that can't fight back. But, he's steering away from the big problems.

Man, he's like a kid who has to be cruel, just to relax.

Trump monetary ties to Saudi Arabia. Not Fox News - but some kind of Fox News Truth Checker deal.

I work from home and have news on in background all day. So, don't hear all the words - a lot of times, just the tone. Since Kavenaugh - he has definitely gotten cocky. Like, more than ever, he doesn't give a shit about obvious lies - just thinks he is so great - he can just say "lie !"

a cap - he doesn't deserve that keystroke.

Ever, even before he stole the Presidency? Even his new tagline is "He denies it very strongly".

be something he can't deny? If 10 people say he told them to hook up with Russia to steal the election....he will just call them all liars.

Even if Cohen has the money trail on bank statements of trump payment of some sort to Russia ?? wouldn't that do it?

I have always been pessimistic though. Unless someone actually taped him ordering a Russian collusion. There won't be anything in writing. If there was, he would have shredded. Besides, he probably can't write. His signature looks like a felon's.

AND I’M LOVIN IT

Maybe once again tomorrow he’ll mention AGAIN what a low-level PR guy Cohen was, but for now, maybe he’s scrambling to get out from under his Saudi fustercluck

Also, let us not forget that Manafort is sharing space with Mr. Mueller & Co quite frequently these days, as is that George Nader guy, and then there’s Allan Weisselberg HOLY SHIT and David Pecker and Gates is always giving up tasty tidbits...and a host of other peeps have said lord knows what to Mr. Muller & Co!!!!!

May IQ45 be getting no more than 2 hours of sleep nightly!!!

is acting like his pal (to further Mueller investigation)....or he's bought him off.

I haven't heard Tiny say anything bad about Manafort - has he?
