The reversal came Thursday in a podcast interview Trump did with journalist Geraldo Rivera, who asked, “Was it strange to send Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine, your personal lawyer? Are you sorry you did that?” Trump responded, “No, not at all,” and praised Giuliani’s role as a “crime fighter.”
“Here’s my choice: I deal with the Comeys of the world, or I deal with Rudy,” Trump said, referring to former FBI Director James Comey. Trump explained that he has “a very bad taste” of the US intelligence community, because of the Russia investigation, so he turned to Giuliani.
“So when you tell me, why did I use Rudy, and one of the things about Rudy, number one, he was the best prosecutor, you know, one of the best prosecutors, and the best mayor,” Trump said. “But also, other presidents had them. FDR had a lawyer who was practically, you know, was totally involved with government. Eisenhower had a lawyer. They all had lawyers.”
Trump had previously denied that he sent Giuliani to Ukraine. Asked in November if he directed Giuliani to “do anything” in Ukraine, Trump said, “No, I didn’t direct him,” but went on to call Giuliani a “great corruption fighter.” Giuliani says he’s exposing legitimate corruption in Ukraine, even though his claims about former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden have been widely debunked.

I just don’t understand why Val Demings is tweeting about this. Or rather, why ONLY Val Demings is tweeting it. 47 Senators and 232 Congresspeople should have all tweeted this within five minutes of each other. This should be the answer to every question the press asks of Dems for the next.
Reporter: Senator, what do you think about the new spending bill?
Senator: I’m glad you asked me. Senate Republicans have blocked THREE election security bills that would require reporting of foreign election interference and would make voting machines harder to hack.
One thing to be thankful for at this point is that there are relatively few federal police. Most of the monopoly on violence inside the USA is under the command of states, counties, and cities.

We already see massive tampon fraud as Oregon residents with no sales tax ship thousands per year to California. Lots of California women would be forced to use homemade napkins if not for this.

It is truly amazing, but as much as I’d like to agree with the prediction of disaray, I just don’t see it.
Nixon, Reagan, the Bushes… none of them left the party in shambles. The party supported their crimes on Monday and on Tuesday couldn’t remember they were ever President and had fallen in love with the next con man.

I totally unironically thought that people like Vindman not getting fired during the impeachment fight was a good sign.
I’m not ready to join WAAF quite yet.
When I come to believe the chance for a D to be elected President in a particular election drops below 20%. Not including the period after the nominees are selected.
