Yea I saw that this morning when I got into the office. I'd say it's pretty appropriate. I think it's getting much harder for people to say with a straight face that this president isn't compromised with Russia. I'm starting to feel the ones staunchly defending it (Rand Paul) are tied to it some-way that could be incredibly damaging to themselves.https://www.politico.com/story/2018/07/ ... oll-728977Pretty much spot on. I think this is why I'm so invested into this Russia thing. My family is pretty hardcore red, I've never really followed that path, to begin with, but I can't stomach the things that have been happening recently and be so willing to toe any line. Corruption is everywhere, but getting caught up in this is huge.I think Morkle and MR25 were both somewhere between apolitical and lean right pre-trump.
I think that's a sign that truly independent people are being pushed away from the Trump GOP, to a place where they'd vote against Republicans for the time being.
I saw this today, and I think your post speaks to it.

Rand is an interesting character. According to 538, at least on voting, he has one of the strongest independent streaks, but his public statements have been very Trumpy. Like his whole line item budget analysis turned into "look at all these anti-trump things we could defund".

SHS at the press briefing today left open the possibility that Trump would turn over former Russian Ambassador Michael McFaul to Russia to face phony charges.
I really hope this is a bridge too far for Republicans.

http://thehill.com/policy/international ... esident-inFormer Montenegrin President Ranko Krivokapic on Wednesday hit back at President Trump’s suggestion that defending Montenegro could get the U.S. drawn into a world war.
Krivokapic, who served as president of the country of fewer than 1 million from 2006-2016, told the BBC that Trump was the “strangest” American president ever.
"He's the strangest president in the history of the United States," Krivokapic said.

That is astonishing. The White House press secretary stated openly that they are weighing the possibility of turning over a former ambassador to an adversary.
This is one of those kinds of things that can outlive the Trump presidency, however long it is for the world. This is the kind of thing that gets people to not seek government service as a career. This is the kind of behavior that prevents foreign nationals from deciding to work with the US. This is a serious breech of faith.

McKees Rocks own John Kasich. There will be other challengers. For instance Pittsburgh (Mt. Lebo) favorite Santorum will run, but, well, Santorum.If he can get by the midterms without losing both houses (and maybe even if he does lose both), then he's almost assuredly going to be the R candidate in 2020, in which case there's no way any R's are going to put the White House at risk of Cory Booker or the Ghost of Joe Biden or whatever pink-haired communist has shad's goat this week.I think he's bullet proof until he's an electoral liability. At some point he will become bad for the brand and he'll lose most of his support in the legislature.
Who in the great and numerous and powerful Never Trump ranks is going to challenge him? Ben Sasse?

Yeah let’s try to go from One party rule to one party rule. Excellent idea.I'm kinda surprised Freddy wasn't all over this one.This Republican Congress has proven incapable of fulfilling the Founders’ design that “Ambition must ... counteract ambition.” All who believe in this country’s values must vote for Democrats this fall. Policy differences don’t matter right now. History has its eyes on us.

Whether something is technically legal or not is a bad threshold.

Sort of the closest I heard someone got to defending Trump's performance in Helsinki Monday was, "Well, it doesn't meet the legal definition of treason, so..."Whether something is technically legal or not is a bad threshold.

That's not a good look.

So you would like the American government to punish organizations that are abiding by the law?Whether something is technically legal or not is a bad threshold.

Public scorn and/or condemnation is a totally different subject and debate.
