MSNBC's Chris
Hayes, Rachel Maddow and Larry O'Donnell were amazing last evening. This
is the greatest political show on earth I have ever seen and will be
studied for decades in colleges, universities, the Ivy Leagues and in
high schools too as it is much much more serious and complex than
Watergate. It is similar to Watergate in many ways but on steroids.
I
was addicted last night and couldn't stop watching -- Three things sum
it up that Larry O'Donnell illuminated: FAME, MONEY AND SEX. That is
the essence of Trump's character or lack of it. That is what he wanted
from the presidency he did not think he would win. Why on God's earth
would anyone with as much nefarious baggage as he had want to win the
most fishbowl office in the world? It was a business deal he wanted
with Russia for decades and went there numbers of times to cultivate.
Now his family and many others Trump touched including counsel are in
the soup. Ironically, Trump loves gold and it is his symbol but
everything and everyone he touches turns to dust.
This will be to be
continued tomorrow, tomorrow and for many tomorrows to come. Much more
will come out and Mueller the Magnificent has it all without leaking a
word. This is the most amazing story ever told!
The so called president of these United States is a horrible man of zero
character and even less honesty. He is everything evil that our nation
has produced -- inside and out ugly beyond words!
Here is what one blogger wrote which I thought has merit:
The possible bribe (50 million dollar penthouse suite in Trump Moscow Tower) offered to Putin
himself to help this deal go through. American companies that offer
bribes [any valuable item, favor or such] to foreign officials to grease
the wheels of a deal, is considered a breach of the The Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act. Trump is claiming the Russian "deal didn't go through".
Well, under the FCPA, it's the mere act of offering or even knowing
about a bribe to a foreign official, even if that bribe is
turned down, that can be enough for an indictment. His ignorance of
this law is amusing. Maybe, he figures that as POTUS, he is immune to
indictment. I suggest he talk to a competent attorney about the 7 year
statute of limitations. Cohen says Trump knew about the deal to offer
Putin valuable favors, including a multi-million condo in the building,
in return for approving. That offer, even if turned down, can be
considered a violation of FCPA.
