What a fkn moron. He thinks he is an emperor.

1. He is unhinged and dangerous.

[iluvtennis]

3. Indeed. And with some Mueller indictments to likely drop this week, he's even more dangerous.

[gratuitous]

2. Considering what the government has been accomplishing these last couple of years

That's really not much of a threat. Sort of like telling a litigation specialist, "I'll see you in court!"

5. +1 EOM

[Wintryjade]

19. And if it keeps him not accomplishing anything the next two years, I am good with that.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

4. Investigate? How? For what?

He can't do any of this.

[Autumn]

6. WHO is going to launch his retributional investigations? Nancy Pelosi? Maxine Wwaters?

Adam Schiff? Richard Neal? Jerrold Nadler? I think not

7. Further down the thread

8. Love it.

9. Don't take the bait. Let him spout off all he wants

Do not become his foil. Can't do anything until Jan. Keep quiet. Make a plan and launch at the right time

10. The next few weeks (or even days) will be a sight to behold

trump is horrified by what is coming. A coward with power is dangerous, but fortunately for us, he is a hateful idiot. Mueller and a Democratic Congress. A country that hates him (Hell, the world hates him). Be afraid orange boy. Be very afraid!

11. GOP Senators running in 2020 Might have other priorities

Other priorities than being pawns in Trump's revenge fantasies and threats.

12. If you've felt discouraged today because of a lost race

Indeed, it's hard to feel optimistic about everything, and some of the losses yesterday really stung. But take heart and be of good cheer as you watch Trump and his Republican toadies eat their shriveled little hearts out today. We didn't run the table, but we sure took 'em to the cleaners in a LOT of places and races.

13. Col. Nathan Jessup.....at the end - the court scene...

I'm being charged with a crime? I'm --
that's what this is --
I'm being charged with a crime? I'm --
that's what's happening? This -- I'm --
this is funny, you know that, this

And JESSEP lunges at KAFFEE, and KAFFEE would be dead but
for the three M.P.'s who've leapt in to restrain JESSEP.
SAM and JO have come to their feet and stand behind KAFFEE.

You fucked with the wrong marine.

16. how apropos nt

[MyOwnPeace]

17. NICE! But............

he also said, "You can't stand the truth!"

"Truth" is a word that IQ45 doesn't know, has never heard, and certainly doesn't understand.

[duforsure]

15. He's now threatening the whole country!

If anyone holds him accountable. Make no mistake this guy is the greatest threat to us all this country has ever had. Come on Mueller !

[Stuart G]

18. Trump doesn't have a clue..He doesn't know.

Because of what Trump is, and what he has done with his money and his "associations" this will make the investigation into Hillary's emails look like a mild dusting of a table top...

..There is something real to investigate with Trump. Look at who has been indicted and made deals with Mueller..Why do you suppose "deals were made?" Because these people are guilty..and they are looking for a "deal" Give it time, indictments are coming soon....I ain't in charge..but that is what I think. We all know that indictments are coming and guess who will get indicted???

[Johonny]

20. THe government is already at a standstill. He's done nothing in two years.

There's little chance he's suddenly going to do things other than golf, make signing statements, pull out of treaties...

[smirkymonkey]

21. Right now, he is still in a state of denial.

Wait until things really sink in.

[GoCubsGo]

22. Go ahead and shut it down, you asshole.

Nobody is going to blame the Democrats for that, other than you idiot cult followers. And, there are way more of us who don't belong to that than do.
