Greg, I don't envy you your job, but I really appreciate you doing it. Especially since the two comments before mine are both saying "whatabout". /Em facepalm.

Whataboutism is entirely legitimate. To think otherwise is to maintain that only you can make accusations against others, but they can't make accusations against you.

Jesus said, "Judge not, lest ye be judged." Believe it.

All your reasoning is pointless. If I want to point my finger at you, I will point my finger at you. If you don't like it, tough.

That in no way addresses what I said, but thanks for playing.

We should note that the sword Trump seeks to wield was sharpened by others.

jabster's avatar

And the "others" could wield it in the future.

And so it goes. Back and forth, back and forth.

Yes, it was sharpened by the people who tried to use it on him. But now he's got it. As Shakespeare said, "Turnabout is fair play."

To summarize what you said: Trump is taking it back to you the way you took it to him, and you think that's unfair.

Show me where you expressed those concerns when Hilary screwed over Trump with Trump/Russia hoax.

Would care to give a rational, nonpolitical explanation for the first impeachment?

How about the second?

Do you understand the absurdity of those 34 felonies?

Do you recognize that the statement, "We can find no evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election to an extent that would have affected the outcome of the elections," is mostly qualifiers, with very little statement? Try to find any 'authority' who will simply state that there was no election rigging in 2020.

I knew Hunter's laptop was genuine six months before that CIA cabal wrote that idiotic letter trying to make people doubt it.

I don't know if it's even possible for Trump to go any lower than these vermin have already gone. Nothing he does to them is unfair. They've got it coming. And let what he does to them be a warning to any other cabal that attempts a bloodless coup in this country.

"It was also a complete hoax.": That's your argument? That's your proof? Your declaration? Excuse me if it doesn't put me over the top.

And you simply ignored the Trump/Russia hoax.

In fact, NONE of what you've said in any way indicates that you have any comprehension of any of this. I challenge you to make your own case, and not just tell us that you're satisfied with what someone else said. YOU have made no case whatsoever, not even a bad one.

Sadly, that’s where we have come to over the last 15+ years. I’m all for stopping it. Let he who began cease first.

Not disagreeing. I didn’t care for it when the IRS was selectively pursuing conservatives, when the government was “jawboing” and threatening social media companies about “misinformation “, much of it accurate, nor when they were arresting and prosecuting peaceful protestors in front of abortion clinics.

The time to stop it was in 2016. You had your chance; you blew it.

I fired Kimmel a long time ago. You can too!

As Neal Boortz said, every radio (TV) contains at least two controls that will do that just nicely.

Did I miss the Comey part? Comey only seems to be in the headline. The latest Comey case is very different from the Kimmel cases.

Very good list of Trump cases. (Now do Biden).

Cindy's avatar

I do think the stuff with Comey and Jimmy Kimmel is overreach. And I can say this even though I do not like these 2 people

And I do think that Trump himself was targeted as well.

So yes, it needs to stop. Unfortunately I don’t think it will

Of course it's overreach. Also insane. But... like Will Smith at the Oscars a few years ago, you don’t drag somebody's flame into the media melee if you are not prepared to get thumped by the boyfriend. Kimmel et al know exactly what they are doing and deserve whatever gets thrown at them.

I have yet to see Trump do anything that hasn't been done to him for ten solid years.

Progressives, read The Boy Who Cried Wolf. I stopped listening to you years ago.

I'm glad that there's now a presumption in case law that jawboning by a government authority always contains a veiled threat of "legal" action even if there's no clear law to be enforced or other "legal" pathway for action.

Now we need to find a way to enforce meaningful redress for process punishments, i.e., "you can beat the rap but you can't beat the ride". If someone in a government authority invokes arrest or other judicial powers in bad faith, etc., there needs a way to provide a sufficiently deterrent punishment on that government authority.
