...the other was Hillary Clinton.

I would have hoped someone had the sense to keep tracking Trump's crimes in my long absence, at the very least adding no-brainers like obstruction of justice (however many total instances is open to debate) and witness tampering (tweeting re: Comey's testimony), but I'll just go ahead and add them myself for posterity if we survive the inevitable nuclear war.

Looks like those two are #28 and #29; the original list was supplemented by the revelations of Trump's sexual assault against various women (#23), obstruction of justice at Trump Org (#24), his daily violation of the Emoluments Clause (#25), and violating the Logan Act via Mike Flynn (#26). For simplicity I've just held out (#27) in reserve for a broad "campaign/Russia/WikiLeaks/foreign actor collusion" category.

If I've overlooked a Trump crime feel free to submit it. Otherwise, ramble incoherently at your leisure.

Because my Russiagate thread wasn't doing just that.

Oh, wait.....

TBH though, I've gotten so sick of the toxicity surrounding the whole thing, that I basically said "fuck it", and stopped updating that thread.

One shitty consequence of the dial only turning from 0-10 is that if someone turns it to "10" and keeps it there for long enough, "10" starts to feel like "5" for some people. That is unacceptable.

Perhaps it was. I haven't checked the forum in several months so honestly I really wouldn't know. I started this pre-election to blow the smoke away from the nonsensical claims that 1) "both candidates are the same/crooked/criminals" and 2) Hillary Clinton is the REAL criminal!, and as much as Trump is haunted by the 3-in-1 Russia scandal, it's important for people to realize that he's been breaking the law for 50 years. It's in his blood. It's his natural disposition. His lawbreaking is deeper than trying to worm his way out of being exposed on Russia.

If your thread cataloged instances of lawbreaking or even just Trump skirting the law, then by all means: share the links here and strengthen the list.

Clinton would win in an electoral landslide. I know people like to have fun discussing fringe candidates but anyone who would attempt to argue otherwise is clearly clueless regarding national and state politics. Clinton would receive at least 347 EVs, and could theoretically push into the 370s-380s if she was fortunate enough to have 6-8 months of campaigning against Trump as the Republican standard-bearer.

I'm not sure why you're still peddling that same tired angle. Every time you recycle that comment I made 16 months before Election Day, all you accomplish is validating that I was able to correctly envision the exact campaign dynamic we ended up getting, country-wide. The same would have been true for the Electoral College had the Comey letters never happened.

Every single entity involved has already acknowledged their decisive electoral impact, including Trump's own campaign staff (and on multiple occasions). I'm not sure what you get out of denying just basic facts that are agreed-upon by all parties.

Huffington Post has the best aggregate by far, the aptly-named "HuffPo Pollster,"

Your response after offering a tired angle that goes nowhere is to immediately pivot to another (yet different) tired angle, one of your misrepresentations that I've already completely refuted a half-dozen times?

Are you a bot?
