The Trump-Putin Summit in Helsinki, coming so soon after Trump’s ally-crumbling display in Britain and at the EU, is still sinking in. Let’s just say: he’s in all kinds of shit. All the kompromat.

Not OTT, Across, actually heart breaking, as it is part of you both. Really sad.

PerkingFaintly · 27/07/2018 19:47

Oh Across, I'm so sorry to hear that.

Across, I so hope there is unexpectedly good news for you. That's so sad. Flowers.

Oh thank you all so much. We're praying for the city and the people. All friends there are not in the danger zone. It's not looking good right now.

Fuck Scrotus and all his climate change deniers. They are why this is happening.

lion, I missed your earlier post about returning to Trump Tower, hope that extra bit of curse omph worksGrin

Oh good mimi. Maybe he'll stay in Moscow since he seems to like Vlad's company so much.

@jeffzeleny
Cabinet officials and others invited to today's NSC meeting on election security are leaving White House now. The meeting was set to start at 3 pm. If it started as scheduled, the president's meeting on election security was less than 30 minutes.

When you look at the language of Goldstone's email to Trump Jr. on July 7 vs Trump's speech later that day, the similarity is remarkable. I had forgotten Trump specifically raised Russia.

#TrumpTower was trending by the time I got back an hour later, ohmy. It was a good idea. Grin

So sorry Across. The fire is ferocious.

I'm so sorry, Across.

Gumpendorf · 27/07/2018 23:16

Across. I'm so sorry. It must be heartbreaking for you and the people now living in the fire path. ThanksThanks

I really don't understand Trump and the other climate deniers.

I'm not getting excited about the Trump Tower stuff or Cohen or anyone. It's too hot and I need proper linkages and indictments now. Circumstantial evidence is too easily talked away and his base believes him. Angry

'Separated from her mother by Trump’s zero-tolerance policy, the child was forced to sign a statement confirming that she understood it was her responsibility to stay away from her abuser.'

There was more than one instance of abuse?

AcrossthePond55 · 28/07/2018 00:01

Circumstantial evidence is too easily talked away and his base believes him. 

So true Gump. I've given up on his base. Nothing will change them. But you're right about circumstantial evidence. This in Congress who are sheltering Scrotus will be only too glad to argue it away. We need something definite that will stick. A smoking gun.

It's what I've always worried about. That Scrotus has been canny enough to put so many layers between himself and illegal activities that nothing will ever point directly to him.

lionheart · 28/07/2018 00:02

Yes. Sad
