    Comey released his letter about Hillary’s emails and Chaffetz leaked it. It dominated the news and her lead in the polls decreased from that point on. It’s been considered a decisive factor in the outcome.

    At the same time there was an active FBI investigation into Trump team colluding with Russia. Someone in the FBI, likely with help from Rudy, leaked to NYT there were no connections seen, and they ran a story. That was actual BS and a misdirect. Meanwhile, Congressional leadership was informed and McConnel and Ryan wouldn’t let Obama go public with the Russia info. Harry Reid released a letter about Russia which the press dismissed but it’s turning out to be correct.

    There was an active effort to cover for Trump’s actual suspected crimes and to redirect the FBI spotlight on Hillary’s email server practices.

    McConnell and Ryan couldn’t prevent Obama from going public. They basically told him they’d turn it into a partisan issue if he did. Of course they did that anyway and Obama proved that in 8 years he never learned not to trust Republicans.

    I’m not reading all of that nonsense, but this was sad and funny:

    “It’s the sort of place where neo-Nazis and people who believe women shouldn’t have basic human rights used to meet before we started verifying them on Twitter and electing them to public office.”

    Did you not ready "the storm" above it was paid for directly by Clinton and Obama, they as well as all other dems are either under arrest or on tether and Trump has been playing it all along.

    Until jumping in the minimum wage thread, I had no idea someone could be dumb enough to believe in a meritocracy and simultaneously believe the estate tax is unconstitutional.

    The grasp of reality on the far right is.... disturbingly vapid

    Hindsight is always 20/20. That said, no one tells the fucking president what to do. See something, say something. It was a massive mistake by Obama not to address the nation once Republican cucks disagreed.

    Getting rolled by Mitch McConnell on this and Garland will go down as twin failures by Obama with one theme: allowing McConnell to flex and not doing enough to overcome it. Obama was always worried about staying high while everyone around him was going low. At least Obama can be proud he maintained principle.

    Think about the statement this makes about Mitch McConnell. He’s said his proudest work is Gorsuch, followed by the tax bill. He trashed norms and process with the knowledge that Trump was compromised by Russia, in order to make both these happen. He’s one of the worst Americans ever, after Robert E Lee.

    Trump pulls brakes on $13B Obama-backed rail-tunnel plan
    The plan, proposed under President Barack Obama in 2015, includes revitalizing a deteriorating Amtrak tunnel connecting New Jersey to New York City, repairing damage to a dual-tunnel conduit, and reconstructing the New Jersey railroad network’s aging Portal Bridge,

    What was the worst thing to happen in 2017?

    Charlottesville and the president’s reaction was probably the low point for me.
    Pulling out of Paris probably second
    The confirmation process for cabinet positions and federa Jude’s probably third (although the most painful in reality)


    What will be the worst thing to happen in 2018?

    Global war (Saudi -Iran) with us doing something probably immoral on behalf of the Saudis
    Shady election shit during the midterms
    Mueller getting shut down by the GOP

    Mitch McConnell and republicans over the past decade have led this country down a really dangerous path.

    That being said, I honestly wonder how much longer our country can survive with the hyper partisanship on a national level. There are a lot of things that should be non-negotiable, but what has been occurring isn’t sustainable. I’m not trying to say “both sides equally bad,” I’m just not sure what a feasible solution is at this point.

    yeah, but that will never happen in the United States. So how do we change what is occurring? Obama genuinely tried to work with the GOP on issues and got the middle finger.

    something has to reset the balance

    historically thats been war(not abroad proxy wars or us bombing a foreign country, one that shows up on our doorstep) or enormous domestic upheaval

    MAYBE, if you're being hyper optimistic Trump is that domestic upheaval, but I highly doubt thats enough
