embroiled in a high profile presidential scandal it was Olivier North.

(26,260 posts)I was very active in Veterans for Kerry. Max came to Flint to campaign and spent as much time as people wanted, talking and posing for photos. I consider meeting him one of the highlights of my life.

(5,124 posts)would lead to violence is a farce. For the life of me, I can't understand the cowardice of the Republicans to stand up to Dump. They are said to be afraid of what their constituents would do. These people have always been deplorable!! When Trump leaves, one way or the other. There will be another Republican hero these sad sacks will fall in love with and they will fall in line and continue doing deplorable shit. Then it was dishonoring veterans, now its siding with Russians and admonishing life long public servants for a has been reality show clown conman.

(7,947 posts)He was handsome-- straight out of central casting, as Trump would salaciously point out.
He helped sell arms to Iran to fund the contras (all illegal), and then lied to Congress, and got his young secretary to conceal evidence (literally in her panties) for him.
The GOP naturally made him a star. He was recently president or something of the NRA.
