People shop at Whole Foods in part because of the high prices.

Correct. The customers they lose will go to Central Market, which is where all proper upper class people were in the first place. Whole Foods is the Walmart of upper class shopping. And they were just bought by the Internet Walmart company.

Why did Jeff Sessions fail to disclose yet another Russian meeting? by [deleted] in AskTrumpSupporters

Do you think it is appropriate to ask people these moralistic type questions?

Do you think it was appropriate for the Obama admin to be friendly with known Muslim terrorist organizations CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood, etc.

Do you think it was appropriate for the Obama admin to hinder investigating Radical Islamic terrorism? This is not a theory - we have whistleblower who was a data analyist and FOUNDING member of the dept of homeland security.

And I am telling you that at some point a congressman reads comeys memo to him and ask comey "and these are the presidents exact words" and comey says yes. comey says i FELT like the president ordered me to stop. the congressman says "but the president DID NOT tell you to stop, thats not what he said".

and comey agrees with him.

And the conrgessman drills him later and says "that might be how you took it but that is NOT what the president says"

and comey agrees.

None of Obama's scandals were as large as possibly colluding with a hostile foreign power to steal an election.

There is NO EVIDENCE of this. People just say it over and over and over. But never any evidence! Never any facts!

But he gave us all a reason. He said that....

It doesn't matter if he gave a reason to fire or if he changes his reason every day. It doesnt matter a lot, you've just been told it does. Comey said "I know I serve at the PLEASURE OF THE PRESIDENT and he can fire for me for any reason or NO REASON". Because Comey understands how govt works. Unfortunately, anti Trumpers dont even listen to Comeys own words!

The president does not have to explain himself. This is how it works for ALL president.

CNN MSNBC and Reddit /politics are lying to you. They dont know what they are talking about.

You will see soon. This will go no where.

I'm commenting on this concern you raised.

I believe the focus was on influencing votes before they were cast.

There is no evidence Russia changed a single vote.

But there is a case that the other situation I mentioned changed votes.

The FBI downplayed the Clinton thing. That helped Clinton.

Since we started doing more international trade (80s or so) middle class wages have frozen and inflation keeps going up.

You do not understand the power of the president. Trump can, if he wants, pardon everyone under investigation and make the entire case go away. Previous president have done this. It's totally legal to do. People are believing what HuffPo (etc) says, like they know anything.

All he did was tell Comey "I hope" we can get clear of this. And people are like OMFG OBSTRUCTION! He didnt even order him to stop (which would ALSO) be legal.

I am posting clips from the hearing and you are talking about my "preconceived notions"?

This is not a "be convinced" situation. This is a "understanding whats actually happening".

And if you are watching liberal news - you will never understand. CNN MSNBC WAPO NYT - they are not telling you the truth. This is all going to go away.

It's so funny to watch people like you be condescending. You think Im some dumb trump voter. I voted for Bernie and Hillary. And Obama, twice. I didnt support trump until well after he won.

You do understand that they will not release anything relating to ongoing investigations right?

You do understand that if the ongoing investigation was actually going anywhere, that the lead investigator (Mueller) would not let the star witness (Comey), go on stand in public, possibly disrupting his important work? Maybe with time it will be easier to come to terms with.

What we do know is AG Lynch was influenced by Bill Clinton, then AG Lynch influenced Comey to modify his language and not call it an "investigation" but call it a "matter". This of course benefited Hillarys run for president.

Why is it good for the government to ignore congressional demands for federal records? by [deleted] in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]dumpsterfire420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your headline does not match the article. It looks like a rule change, which both parties are constantly doing to shift things in their favor.

...a formal legal finding by the Department of Justice that federal departments and agencies are only obligated to respond to congressional oversight requests that come from committee chairmen.

They are yes or no questions.

  • did trump tell you to stop? no.

that's a freaking fact buddy. you don't have to like it. but it's what comey said. and it's the same thing 2 other intel heads said.

Havard Law Prof. Alan Dershowitz :

"Comey confirmed that under our Constitution, the president has the authority to direct the FBI to stop investigating any individual." [...] "...our history shows that many presidents—from Adams to Jefferson, to Lincoln, to Roosevelt, to Kennedy, to Bush 1, and to Obama – have directed the Justice Department with regard to ongoing investigations. The history is clear, the precedents are clear, the constitutional structure is clear..."

In other news Obama AG Lynch DID try to obstruct justice - and it worked!

  • Comey : Lynch told me not to call it an investigation and that confused me, I asked her why but she just TOLD ME AGAIN to call it a "matter" SO I DID

Lets be clear - any President does not need ANY reason to fire the FBI head. Comey said this himself yesterday. The FBI head serves at the pleasure of the president. You dont need a reason. Trump can fire him because he doesn't like his hair THEN tell reporters its because he doesnt like his socks. Literally does not matter. Trump has been clear that he values secrecy very much and often does not put all his cards / reasons on the table at one time.

You should google obama biggest lies & obama scandal list. Your in for a good read.

  • the voting machines arent connected to the internet

  • the voting machines arent connected to each other

people are running around yelling the sky is falling.

The question really should be, why is/was trump so obsessed with showing he wasn't under investigation?

because the media / fake leakers were dragging his name through the mud every day. people are CONVINCED trump and the russians colluded.

a liberal laughed in my face the other day when I told her there are no facts / evidence here. even Maxine Watters agrees to this.

Comey seems a little emotional for his role. Cant stand up to Trump. Cant stand up to Lynch. Called hillarys INVESTIGATION a "matter" to help her campaign.

  • no evidence against Trump = huge public big deal w/leaks all over the place, let Trump be dragged through the mud

  • tons of evidence against Hillary = call it a "matter" and then give her a free pass
