Trump Falsely Claims Constitution's Article II Let's Him Do Whatever He Wants | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Traitor Trump is back on his authoritarian fantasy. I see prison in his future…
@Albert Green They NEVER have evidence….Only feelings. And they keep getting butthurt.
@Zep Tepi
Yes, I did read the report. You are completely incorrect. I will quote the report.
*Page 2:*
*THE INVESTIGATION DID NOT ESTABLISH* that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian
government in its election interference activities.
*Page 2*
We applied the term
coordination in that sense when stating in the report that *THE INVESTIGATION DID NOT ESTABLISH* that the
Trump Campaign coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.
*Page 5*
Although the investigation
established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts, *THE INVESTIGATION DID NOT ESTABLISH* that
members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its
election interference activities.
This important line is repeated throughout the report on pages 7, 10, 66, 95, 131, 144, and 173
Please tell me where in the report that it reads, “it simply concluded that there wasn’t enough evidence to bring charges”.
As I read the report, there was no evidence of this. Please help me. Seriously, I need to know why people are saying this.
uyg kjyglyg fact,,,It’s definitely the other way around. Trump supporters are in the minority so goodbye fool,lol
I see a noose in his short future !!
Trump must have been imagining an Article that says he can do whatever he wants to women, like grabbing them by the p…
Mueller time! means: it’s time to Go to The Villages.
Can MSNBC or any of you Democrats give us the address to the federal building of exoneration?
Annnora C he said the want him too, never said he did
Trump hasnt read a book in his adult life. He believes he is a king because he is ignorant and arrogant….. he is just a treasonous, criminal fraud.
Default Name how bout proof that you’re not Russian!
Fool!
Default Name You’re on the Internet, so use it moron!
ruth depew I would posit that his obstruction of the investigation into election meddling by the Russians could qualify as working against our country’s interests.
trump had to put down his craylon while he was doing his in the line pre-k colouring book he looked up at that moment not for clarification, or understanding, but more so he wanted everyone to see his great coloring.
Historical side note: Except in the Middle East, there are no monarchs with absolute power, just dictators.
Failed comment again by ruth depew, still voting Trump in 2020 here.
@Robert The Bruce Bobby the Brute is back, providing nothing, but his zombie allegiance to Tyrant Trump. BTW, how was rehab?
Forget the Mueller report,Trump should be Impeached on so many other things that the american people should not let this hearing be the final thing that suggest should he be Impeached or not.
wow trump tards and russian trolls out in full force today
Trump has always thought he could do what he wanted way before he became president.
Facts to Trumpies is like sunlight to Vampires.
Apparently Donald studied constitutional law at Trump University.
Lol so true
And flunked out
But he do…everything he want. That’s the problem. How to impeach this president.
Trump loves Putin because Putin has all the power and say so in Russia. Trump’s trying to silence everyone against him.
We all know what happened to Charles I when he said ‘I do what I want.’
Trump has a 4th grade education in a old old mans body.
Look at Trump’s success wow forth grade so you what grade did you complete.
A typical trump: Yaps like a deranged nutcase over a constitution article he never has and never will read. 😂
Trump believes that Article II provides for Evmxeutive Power, which is, in his mind, God’s power. So he believes he is above the law and above the constitution. Barr would not correct him. But rather he encourages Trump to further his Executive Power. With that, Barr has committed the crime of obstruction of justice.
DUMP has decided he WILL do what ever he wants, who is going to stop him?? he has dis-empowered the congress by ignoring subpoenas, instructed his henchmen and women to ignore anything (he will protect them) he is just short of the Military being on the streets checking ID.
So now trump is going full “I did it but you can’t touch me” lol trump time is ticking
With the support and collusion of the Republican Senate and the Republican High Court Chump is effectively king for four years.
We live in an Democracy NOT a Dictatorship and Trump can’t do what ever he wants!!!!!
