That kind of thinking has been the downfall of many leaders. The truly successful leader studies his enemy, learns his tactics and how he thinks. Only then can he develop a solid strategy to defeat him. Any less and he's stuck in reaction mode and lives behind the power curve.

What are they? The enemy.

Done.

Mueller charges Russians with meddling in 2016 race
https://apnews.com/07a296e605fb4ac3b485 ... -2016-race

The indictment alleges that the Russian conspirators want to promote discord in the United States and undermine public confidence in democracy. "As you can see with the FBI indictment, the evidence is now really incontrovertible and available in the public domain” that Moscow interfered in the race, stated Trump’s national security adviser, H.R. McMaster today.

Does Mueller indictment mean Clinton campaign can now be indicted for Chris Steele.

In other Trump news. Playboy Playmate story comes out. This is on top of Blonde Porn Star story. Apparently all happened around the same time after Barron was born. So I guess 10 years ago.

As LA times points out ho hum, no one cares. Don't you think Bill Clinton cares and is very jealous right now?

So what?
The former occupant of the Oval Office openly interfered with elections in other countries, even making visit to one in support of existing leader’s opponent.
We’re supposed to be indignant and demand accountability because someone did the same thing to us?
Mueller is a swamp dweller and a moron. We don’t have a democracy and I want the people in Washington to start remembering the difference.
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

Hundreds of years from now. HIstorians will research Mr. Cotton's forum to find the candle that kept freedom alive in the United States. They will need to see the onslaught faced by ordinary Americans from the evil main stream media and the daily bombardment received by their President who stood up against the tide of gun confiscation. :txflag: :patriot:

Is this another example of the Potato Paradox mentioned earlier?

"Although not a true paradox in the strictest sense, the counterintuitive Potato Paradox is a famous example of what is known as a veridical paradox, in which a basic theory is taken to a logical but apparently absurd conclusion."

MSM may create some "news" and exaggerate but colluding with Russia? Really??? Are we as gullible as the Russians seem to think?

Do you have a Facebook or Twitter account ?? If so the answer should be obvious.

:iagree: This exactly. We run around bawling like a new calf because Russia, who isn't exactly a friend, is doing to us what we did and probably still do to others. I am not exactly in the know, but I can name several just sitting here; Israel, Ukraine, Libya, Tunisia, Egypt, Chile, South Korea, South Vietnam, Greece, Italy, FRGermany and the list goes on I am sure...

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics ... -las-vegas

Headline says Trump directs Justice Department to ban bump stops. This apparently is his response to the Las Vegas mass shooting. However the timing is for the Parkland High School shooting. There was some talk today that he really has no power over the Justice Department. So maybe this could be viewed as a suggestion.

Actually, the questions were rhetorical ones with the obvious answers being "no"...

The word "collude" is used very casually these days but remember that it does mean "to act together secretly or illegally in order to deceive or cheat".

The word "gullible" is defind as "someone who is easily persuaded to believe something". Yes we hear about successful spams involving gullible folks but more likely we believe what fits our beliefs.

Sorry if I repeated the obvious...

I'm not sure how viewing CNN helps develop a strategy for dealing with hysteria but if it works for you, carry on.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
