The Presidency of Donald J. Trump, Episode VI: No Witnesses, One Defector, No Checks or Balances

Why is this a game changer? What the fuck are people thinking? Nobody gives a crap about this stuff. Or, rather, everybody who gives a crap about this stuff already knew the stuff that Parmas is saying was true.

If he admitted to trying to kill the Ambassador on Trump’s clear direction (captured on tape), then it might be a teeny tiny game changer.

Lev just said Hyde got into some thing with Pence’s brother and that the secert service and a hitman were after him, after the thing???

:relaxed::relaxed::relaxed:

We got a QT film here…

No you’re the puppet!

It’s not any kind of game changer but it may make it marginally harder for Moscow Mitch to turn the trial into a complete shit show—marginally harder, the smart money is still on shit show.

These idiots somehow think Trump is just a random guy out there doing the crimes, subject to an unbiased prosecution, or something.

Seriously, how fucking stupid do you have to be to think any of this matters?

I would love to see Clownsel cross-examine Lev.

so, what % of this country will ever hear about this dude much less understand anything he said?

This interview is pretty wild. his lawyer seems to be totally okay with his client going totally YOLO on national TV. Jesus Christ that lawyer is a scary looking mofo.

I have two theories about Lev Parnas: one is that he’s making a show of getting everything out there in order to get clemency when he’s sentenced for his crimes. The other is that Putin wants to introduce some chaos and he’s telling Lev to spill the beans or else. The only other explanation is that everyone is just pressing buttons.

Get the shit out in the open before they murder you to keep the shit from getting out in the open? A la Epstein?

fwiw, the Parnas indictment claimed a ukraine official is why parnas tried to get rid of the ambassador instead of trump.

we’re gonna find out eons from now some of the interview is true and some of it is BS purely to muddy up the waters and lol trump wins aren’t we?

There has kind of been a pattern of that before with Trump’s people right?

I get the WAAF viewpoint. I really do. That doesn’t mean just suck your thumb and move to country X. They (Ds legit media, SDNY etc) have to try to expose, indict, impeach) best they can. Who gives a crap if some fraction of the base gets further galvanized. Getting hold the nose trump voters to switch or just stay home while at the same time energize people to vote D is the game. Heck it may be hacked. But the point is they have to try. Conviction is a pure bonus. One could argue its better to keep Trump as the nominee to run against and drag down the whole ticket.

So it seems a lot more productive about how and maintain some hope that there is a path. Nihilism is a pointless philosophy.

Nihilism is a psychological crutch.
