I am a fool or will the truth ever come out?

We all know the smoke is getting thicker and thicker in Trump's world! But where is the real fire? I am waiting patiently and hope the probes will find something soon! I know it takes time, but the fact that Trump and his band of goons are still in control with our country's fate, well-being, and world relations, is scaring the bejeeze out me! Now, we hear that DT, Jr had meeting with a Russian lawyer who was to have info on Hillary, just after Trump won the nomination for the GOP! Wow, talk about nepotism? And to boot, there was two others of Trump's top advisors(if you can call them that) were at that meeting, his son-in-law Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort! They may be able to call this collusion, but I would say treason is out there! And to finish this, Trump has said that he never knew the meeting occurred? Horse $#!!, I may be a fool, but I am not stupid!

2. I think that the problem is that this isn't a conspiracy.

This is the way that Trump and his family have been doing business for many years.

The more things are examined, the more things will be found. Becoming President may be the worst business decision that Trump ever made.

I think they had no idea had badly their 'business acumen' would translate into politics and government

They are so fucked, but they will be the last ones to understand that (if ever)

6. My only question is, will they find ANY part of his business dealings which aren't kept floating....

by Russian banks connected to Putin.

I had heard that western banks had long ago abandoned Trump.....much like the contractors in NY who grew tired of being ripped off by him.

3. I'm trying to be patient and remind myself how long Watergate took.

But I keep thinking about Trump and co and everything just seems to roll right off of the whole crew. Nothing seems to stick to them and his supporters keep supporting. It's hard to stay positive. I'm not convinced right will prevail. They've gotten away with lies and corruption in their businesses for so long. Again, I have to focus on positivity.

The roaches will scatter for cover. It's only a matter of time before the hammer drops. There's to many dots for there not to be a connection. But, I have been wrong before. Never in a million years would I have thought this doofus would be elected President.

you know that he is lying. The man is simply incapable of telling the truth about anything.

I just hope Democrats get into power in Congress in 2018 and they're not too proud to set a perjury trap, the best way to get him out if his own party won't encourage him to quit.

Since the man cannot tell the truth, he won't fall into it, he'll jump.

10. There are so many on this site that remind us that Watergate took time.

Which I understand. With the speed of news and social media, we get info faster than ever. However, the system is not keeping pace with that and by now some of those immersed in it know how to game it. Some of the things that protect us also hinder us so I'll take a cue from the old-timers, be patient grasshopper. It's looking worse for the megalomaniac every day but it will take time to take him down. And I'll be smiling as we recover. Peace
