Unfortunately, weather prevented a #114th golf game today, so 45* got on the Twitter-Blower.
Idiot Trump seeks another ‘Obama tapps” diversion as Mueller gets more incriminating information about a second meeting at Trump Tower where foreign influence in his 2016 campaign was auctioned off to multiple nations.
As I’ve said before, I intend to wait until Mueller presents his findings before I draw conclusions about what has gone on.
-
Russia hacked the election, which is a problem whether or not the outcome was affected.
-
-
If his son Donald Trump Jr. didn’t collude with Russia, he certainly wanted to.
-
And Donald Trump’s desire to shut down “this Russia thing” led to his ham-handed firing of FBI Director James B. Comey, which in turn gave us the Mueller probe.
-
No deep-state conspiracy, just Trump’s own blundering, according to sometime adviser and confidant Stephen K. Bannon.
It has been said many times: For a man protesting his innocence, Trump sure does act guilty. And that, more than anything, creates the air of mystery shrouding this topic. But at least we now know what he’s likely to say if and when we learn what he is hiding.
Feds set me up.

The tweets are riddled with misinformation and, in some cases, outright falsehoods. Taken together, Trump said 11 things that aren't true. Here's the breakdown -- tweet by tweet.
1. "Things are really getting ridiculous. The Failing and Crooked (but not as Crooked as Hillary Clinton) @nytimes has done a long & boring story indicating that the World's most expensive Witch Hunt has found nothing on Russia & me so now they are looking at the rest of the World!" (9:04 am)
Trump is referring here to an
article in the Times published Saturday detailing a 2016 meeting between Donald Trump Jr. and a liaison for two Arab princes in which the emissary made clear that his clients wanted to assist Trump's campaign.
Trump is hanging his conclusion on this one sentence:
"A year and a half later, no public evidence has surfaced connecting Mr. Trump's advisers to the hacking or linking Mr. Trump himself to the Russian government's disruptive efforts."
What that sentence makes clear is
a) no public evidence yet exists and
b) the investigation is ongoing.
