You obviously know sfa about the US Justice System. None of these were criminal charges, only civil cases. These cases are pretty hard to defend against so the rich will just pay money to make it go away instead of fighting an expensive case against someone who is given free legals.
Your first paragraph comes across as a person who is keen to slander someone. Any proof?
If the article linked on msg 9444 is wrong I am sure Trump would have sued.

This whole Russian nonsense now has merely weeks to run before evaporates or even flips onto the democrats.
Mueller will soon announce the end of his investigation, exonerating Trump. Where as the Democrats may escape any consequences the FBI reputation is already in tatters and will need some rehabilitation.

I can't vouch for my colleagues but I will try not to gloat too much and sincerely hope we can finally expand the discussions regarding Trump into more fruitful directions.

Anyway, I am feeling a little sorry for you poor sods - you've had a tough 18 months. But it will all be over shortly.

LOL , CNN only reporting half the story yet again.

The DNC lawsuit will most likely be dismissed as frivolous. However, in the event it is allowed the proceed the Trump campaign can stand to gain a great deal of information during the discovery phase. The Trump team respond:

[…] If this lawsuit proceeds, the Trump Campaign will be prepared to leverage the discovery process and explore the DNC’s now-secret records about the actual corruption they perpetrated to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. Everything will be on the table, including:

♦How the DNC contributed to the fake dossier, using Fusion GPS along with the Clinton Campaign as the basis for the launch of a phony investigation.
♦Why the FBI was never allowed access to the DNC servers in the course of their investigation into the Clinton e-mail scandal.
♦How the DNC conspired to hand Hillary Clinton the nomination over Bernie Sanders.
♦How officials at the highest levels of the DNC colluded with the news media to influence the outcome of the DNC nomination.
♦Management decisions by Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Donna Brazile, Tom Perez, and John Podesta; their e-mails, personnel decisions, budgets, opposition research, and more. (link)

I too did LOL at the lawsuit but not for the reasons your favourite website cites.

I question... how do you sue a country, Wikileaks? What damages were caused - loss of election? Compensation? Another election?:p

Surprised if gets past first base.

Think this is a poor and expensive ruse to try and get hold of the same people that Mueller is questioning. They are as bad as Nunes and Co leaking memos to media before announcement to congress. Then again they love leakers and liars.

Hope that their broken political system doesn't come here.

It does sound silly, but apparently a similar law suit was successful off the back of Watergate.

LOL, another post that will be proved wrong, but by the time that happens there will be 20 other hypotheses telling you what's 'really' happening so you will just spin crap about them instead.

Only if they update the CNN article to add the response. I don't know about you , but I actually like to hear BOTH sides of a story.
From the article you're (again) bitching about:

"This is a sham lawsuit about a bogus Russian collusion claim filed by a desperate, dysfunctional, and nearly insolvent Democratic Party," campaign manager Brad Parscale said. "With the Democrats' conspiracy theories against the President's campaign evaporating as quickly as the failing DNC's fundraising, they've sunk to a new low to raise money, especially among small donors who have abandoned them. "

Parscale predicted the lawsuit would be dismissed. But if it goes forward, "the DNC has created an opportunity for us to take aggressive discovery into their claims of 'damages' and uncover their acts of corruption for the American people," he said.
The victim mentality of Trumpians is as pitiful and as baseless as every other opinion they hold.

I do know about you, so I know what you just wrote is BS, because there isn't "BOTH" sides of a story. Most stories could have MANY different interpretations at many different points as to what is happening and may happen. But you are narrow-minded, so you are only thinking in daft, binary ways.

Also, your comment didn't make sense as a response to what you quoted so there's that level of daftness too.

Also, what Jeff just said, which reveals a huge level of daftness from you.

They only skimmed the edges , left out all the discovery points.

My point stands and no amount of insults is going to change it.

IB4 North Korea and Trump's success. Think I might wait a few years before applauding as this has been going on since 1985.

For years, the United States and the international community have tried to negotiate an end to North Korea’s nuclear and missile development and its export of ballistic missile technology. Those efforts have been replete with periods of crisis, stalemate, and tentative progress towards denuclearization, and North Korea has long been a key challenge for the global nuclear nonproliferation regime.

The United States has pursued a variety of policy responses to the proliferation challenges posed by North Korea, including military cooperation with U.S. allies in the region, wide-ranging sanctions, and non-proliferation mechanisms such as export controls. The United States also engaged in two major diplomatic initiatives to have North Korea abandon its nuclear weapons efforts in return for aid.

In 1994, faced with North Korea’s announced intent to withdraw from the nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT), which requires non-nuclear weapon states to forswear the development and acquisition of nuclear weapons, the United States and North Korea signed the Agreed Framework. Under this agreement, Pyongyang committed to freezing its illicit plutonium weapons program in exchange for aid.


Following the collapse of this agreement in 2002, North Korea claimed that it had withdrawn from the NPT in January 2003 and once again began operating its nuclear facilities.

The second major diplomatic effort were the Six-Party Talks initiated in August of 2003 which involved China, Japan, North Korea, Russia, South Korea, and the United States. In between periods of stalemate and crisis, those talks arrived at critical breakthroughs in 2005, when North Korea pledged to abandon “all nuclear weapons and existing nuclear programs” and return to the NPT, and in 2007, when the parties agreed on a series of steps to implement that 2005 agreement.

Those talks, however, broke down in 2009 following disagreements over verification and an internationally condemned North Korea rocket launch. Pyongyang has since stated that it would never return to the talks and is no longer bound by their agreements. The other five parties state that they remain committed to the talks, and have called for Pyongyang to recommit to its 2005 denuclearization pledge.

The article goes on to detail the chronology of U.S-North Korea talks/agreements.

What discovery "points"?

You posted someone's opinion. An opinion so far from reality why would CNN (or anyone else) publish it?

The Judge will make those determinations if the claim gets that far but the nonsense you quoted, shows a complete misunderstanding of that process. Or given the source, it is someone being typically disingenuous because Trumpians believe any shit provided it can be used as propaganda for the Orange Emperor.

For example, how the DNC treated Bernie Sanders is completely irrelevant to this claim. There is enough legal precedence to know any judge would laugh at that suggestion (well, not literally "laugh").

What you quoted is pure propaganda designed to reinforce talking points. It's not legal opinion. So why would anyone quote it in the context of the legal justification? They may as well publish "liar, liar, pants on fire".

My point stands and no amount of insults is going to change it.
Of course you'd double down on paranoia and stupidity.

You're a Trumpian.

How many times can you be so wrong and keep returning with the self same nonsense to be again shot down in flames by reality?

Impeach impeach impeach

The possibility that the Dems will actually proceed with such a case is mindbongingly insane.

It is one thing to have an independent investigator like Mueller who can do as he pleases.

But a court case! That’s is a bitch fight you cannot control. And against a sitting president with all the resources at his disposal.

And their going to sue Wikileaks!

This is either someone’s idea of practical joke - or the Dems have entirely lost their marbles.

Consider that everything negative re Trump is old news. Pursuing such a case becomes entirely a free kick to expose the Hillary campaign and the Obama teams shensnghans


In the cold light of day - even the Dems will realize it would be a train wreck.

But good on them for not conceding defeat - a bit like the knight in the holy grail who despite losing all his limbs continues to challenge his opponent with spittle.

Why bring impeachment into it when it was never mentioned? It's like you are substituting an argument that was never made so you could then ridicule it and shoot it down. You're clutching at straws, man.

If I was big orange I'd be more concerned how Republicans are refusing to answer if they'll back Trump in 2020.

Are they starting to sharpen the axe? :rolleyes:
