Trump Sucks

...but at least he isn't Justin Trudeau

Dude. I don’t give even a little poop about Trudeau. Mueller’s probe is continuing to impress and track the assertions in the Steele dossier.

We’re getting to a point where I just don’t see how collusion hasn’t occurred. Before I said it was the most reasonable explanation of trump’s behavior, but I just re-read the dossier after reading about the latest charges against Manafort...

That dossier has so far accurately identified Page (surveiled by the FBI), Flynn (already plead out, cooperating with FBI), Papadopoulos (plead out, cooperating with FBI), and Manafort (huge litany if charges, close associate just flipped on him.). It also indicates that the hacking operations were farmed out by the Kremlin to organizations of the class of which the IRA is a member. It also accurately called the DNC hack as a Kremlin job, Wikileaks as a plausibly deniable vehicle for email release...

It also indicates Trump’s sketchball lawyer took over as primary liaison after Manafort’s departure. That’ll be an interesting legal thing, there, if true.

And on top of all of that, collusion remains the absolute best explanation of trump’s behavior. There is simply no other reason for his otherwise politically ignorant and apathetic ass to be so one-sided in positively treating Putin and Russia.

This shit is getting real. I am in shock and awe recipient mode. The schizophrenic Interwebs, of course, is following its standard M.O. of confident polarization, but the sane position, given this constantly increasing litany of charges, guilty pleas, and evidence complimentary to the allegation of corruption alongside increasingly desperate responses from trump and allies (Nunes memo, trump’s increasingly graspy-for-strawsy “no collusion” teeets) and absolutely no apparent disconfirming evidence AT ALL (you’d think at least ONE assertion in the Steele dossier would be disproven by now, but no)....

I dunno man. We might be living through quite a time right now.

I've tuned out this stuff, honestly, and am just waiting for Mueller's conclusion. So that's on me...but I just don't have the compute cycles to spare these days. I'll take your word for it that things are looking bad... I mean, Trump is pretty awful, so it wouldn't surprise me too much if he turns out to be guilty...

...but at least he isn't Justin Trudeau...

Trudeaux seems sincere, at least, and to care about people other than himself. Personally, I'll take a bumbling sincere person over Trump.

Yeah, I'm not saying that I wouldn't. Trump is a repulsive person and an embarrassment to the office...not to mention probably dangerous...

But Trudeau is representative of a kind of cultish insanity that--at its heart and if left unchecked--is actually worse than Trump. Trudeau himself is just kind of a clown. But what he represents is an evolving madness.
