[QUOTE=rufuspaul]Objection Your Honor, conjecture.
Just because it's your subjective interpretation does not make it evidence.[/QUOTE]
Take a look at how prosecutors take down the mob. Do you really think they go around implicitly saying "go kill Fat Louie"? They talk in code. See how well the conjecture defense worked for them

Trump looked broken in the speech just now, paranoid and losing his mind. I think Trump has lost it, rambling on and on off-script

Trump can certainly argue that he was not suggesting that he would free up the money for Ukraine in return for help on this call. He also complained about how Germany was not helping Ukraine, and pressed Ukraine

He's always done that. Where have you been the last 3 years?

:facepalm[/QUOTE]
I did. Did you? Or did you just decide to highlight what fits your narrative?
[QUOTE]Before the memorandum of the Ukraine phone call was released, President Trump said that he did not provide any explicit quid pro quo. In his own words, he said “I did not make a statement that, ‘You have to do this or I’m not going to give you A.’ I wouldn’t do that.” The record that has been released suggests that this is true. Trump did not offer an explicit quid pro quo. However, he did say that the US had been “very very good” to Ukraine, but that Ukraine was not necessarily reciprocating, and later asked the Ukrainian president to talk to his personal lawyer Giuliani or Attorney General Barr about “look[ing] into” Joe Biden. This might - conceivably - be innocent. [B]However, we already know from Trump’s former lawyer that he doesn’t like to make direct demands, when they could get him in trouble. Instead, he prefers to communicate indirectly[/B].[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]As my research describes, this is the way that mafia bosses like to talk. They don’t want to say things directly when those things could be used against them, either by eavesdropping law enforcement agencies, or by other criminals. [B]When both parties to the conversation know that Trump is withholding funding for Ukraine, a threat doesn’t have to be made directly. [/B]Instead, the subtext: “it’s a very, very good relationship with Ukraine: it would be a terrible shame if something happened to it" can be readily understood by both parties.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen has said[B] President Trump “doesn’t give orders. He speaks in code. And I understand that code.”[/B] That’s the way that mafiosi speak to each other, in order to avoid trouble.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]Trump and his officials use different kinds of ambiguity to similar effect. When Trump reportedly told officials that he would pardon them if they broke the law in order to get his border wall completed, a senior official insisted that he was “only joking.” Perhaps so: but jokes may very usefully provide plausible deniability in indicating to officials what the president believes they should do.[/QUOTE]
By the way, re-read the last sentence of your own quote
[QUOTE]Certainly, people who want to believe him can believe him.[/QUOTE]
:oldlol:
[QUOTE=rufuspaul]He's always done that. Where have you been the last 3 years?[/QUOTE]
Usually he has energy and talking loudly. He didn't have that today in the speech just now. He is wore out from not sleeping or yelling at the ghost or whatever it is that he does when stressed out
trump is fine .. you want him to be amped up every single time he's doing some bs presser .. it's understandable if he's a bit tired from all this shit
Ukraine prime minister looked so awkward answering questions next to Trump today :oldlol:
[QUOTE=bladefd]Ukraine prime minister looked so awkward answering questions next to Trump today :oldlol:[/QUOTE]
He wants nothing to do with this drama lol
Yoooooo!!!!
Trump gives NO f*cks, he just threw Pence under the bus to threaten the GOP.
:lol
I told ya'll he gives no f9cks about anyone, he threw Rudy under the bus, Barr, he's gonna go down the line. He is shameless and is giving us a taste of how he is willing to sell out the country.
Some have theorized that he will not go out without a fight and all hell will break loose. If he's found guilty he will make sure to burn the country down, mark my words and bookmark this post.
He is dangerous and will burn down the country.
[QUOTE=rufuspaul]Sure. [/QUOTE]
So I'm going to quote from the Mueller report.
[QUOTE]In late July 2016, soon after WikiLeaks's first release of stolen documents, a foreign government [Australia] contacted the FBI about a May 2016 encounter with Trump Campaign foreign policy advisor George Papadopoulos. Papadopoulos had suggested to a representative of that foreign government that the Trump Campaign had received indications from the Russian government that it could assist the Campaign through the anonymous release of information damaging to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. That information prompted the FBI on July 31, 2016, to open an investigation into whether individuals associated with the Trump Campaign were coordinating with the Russian government in its interference activities.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]And the fact that Sleepy Joe's son was working for a company that the prosecutor was investigating is just a funny coincidence . Nothing to see here folks, move along.[/QUOTE]
Are you aware that the investigation into the company by the prosecutor Biden had ousted began and ended before Hunter Biden took a seat on the board? Are you also aware that other countries and many Ukrainian officials also wanted that prosecutor gone because they considered him part of Ukraine's corrupt past and knew that he was sitting on investigations? All these little tidbits and bits of context are trickling out. I hope they keep going hard at the Bidens. Trump and Giuliani are going to end up looking like even worse fools than they already do.

My mom has always theorized this as well. And I agree, Trump doesn’t have a loyal bone in his body. He’s clearly a narcissist, and will do anything to save his own skin.
