It sure would seem that way. Question...What would the political fallout be if Trump did pardon people who were guilty? I'm assuming the reaction would be significant enough for him to not be reelected. Also, would that prompt the GOP to find another viable candidate to run against Trump if that were the case? My personal opinion, it won't change much unless he is impeached as a result of all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly even if he is impeached it wont mean much. Politics has replaced sports in this country. People watch it more than sports and they root for their side to win more than they do sports. The people still for Trump will literally always be for him unless he personally strangles the life out of their child. And even then its unless the kid is a liberal. They have been effectively brainwashed. The GOP is already looking for viable candidates to run against him. They said that a while ago actually. And they would be crazy not to. Dude cant win another election if the people vote. His popularity is at 40% AFTER 3 natural disasters (which typically improves your favor-ability as it can never be your fault). And this Vegas mess is going to finish him. His base will be livid if he changes gun laws at all. And if he doesn't the rest of the country will use this to destroy him. Its that simple.

LadySkinsFan Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Give them an inch and they'll take a mile. This is why Trump's and his administration's love affair with Putin and Russia is so dangerous, not only to us but to the whole world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I always find it strange how some Trump supporters or conservatives complain about Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, etc, but have few issues these days with Russia and Putin who aids and supplies them all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadySkinsFan Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Kaspersky antivirus software, the perfect stealth backdoor program. I had it for a bit a long time ago, and when I got a new computer, didn't install it because I found out it was Russian tech. Why didn't our government not install it? Who is responsible for that?

DogofWar1 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Jeebus. We needed to be way more on the ball with Kaspersky. That we weren't is worrying. Basically, ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING, person, item, software, hardware, anything MUST be considered compromised by the Kremlin and intended as a tool for Kremlin surveillance of other targets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Kaspersky used to routinely go on sale with a 100% rebate (essentially making it free as long as you did the paperwork). Can't help but wonder if that was part of a long con. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogofWar1 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 This is why SIC hit a wall on Steele. Steele is basically going to Mueller exclusively it seems, which makes sense. After the shenanigans the House GOPers pulled with those staffers, and the tremendously high likelihood that a bunch of stuff would leak, Steele figures any more cooperation should be with Mueller and Mueller alone. Mueller's report is going to be the dooziest doozie that ever was. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
