There you have it, folks! Time to leak another story about Ohio to the Press!

I'm sorry, didn't realize you lived in a drug den.

No reason to crowd the prisons, folks, when the IRS can give out extra bonus checks.

Good thing his friend is President of the US who has the power to pardon.

Trump never had the well-slicked apparatus that Hillary had, and he bungled thru numerous miscues. Every new business has the same issues. Do you think the Podesta's paid all of their taxes? Any CPA can tell you that every business owner can be audited knowing how complicated tax law is.

Hence my point that I don't want congress to be able to do these special prosecutor investigations of presidents unless it is a matter central to the US govt.

That's not true, they had two very sophisticated stealth helicopters. Where were the helicopters in the Stone arrest?
