We will hear today more details of the Russian investigation.

So Trump is on the attack.

James Clapper and others stated that there is no evidence Potus colluded with Russia. This story is FAKE NEWS and everyone knows it!

The Democrats made up and pushed the Russian story as an excuse for running a terrible campaign. Big advantage in Electoral College & lost!

The real story that Congress, the FBI and all others should be looking into is the leaking of Classified information. Must find leaker now!

What about all of the contact with the Clinton campaign and the Russians? Also, is it true that the DNC would not let the FBI in to look?

Bill must be wondering wth did Hillary's campaign managers get so wrong...couldn't get laid in a whore house basically.

Apparently he'd been warning them for ages about the white working class and the upper midwest.

FBI investigation into Trump's campaign, collusion with Russia, and Russian hacking is now confirmed.

Oh kinell. The President of the United States' election campaign is under investigation for collusion with a hostile foreign power. The GOP congressmen would rather talk about classified leaks which have prodded them into having a congressional investigation they didn't want to have. Priorities.

I want to know the answer to the question Senator Grassley is currently tweeting. Is Trump himself a target for investigation here? Feinstein (on same committee and getting same info) ducked the question on impeachment this weekend and suggested emoluments clause is going to be the trip up for Trump. Mmmm.

The desire to criminalise reporters for reporting leaks, plus the implied threats to FBI and NSA over legislation, are really not going to go down in history well when Trump's stood there in the corner ablaze in a dumpster.

So you're rulling out someone coming into hearings with a tape or trumps election war room with all the crowd in there and someone saying "I have a guy, ok he's Russian, but I have a guy, nice guy, best guy there is, who says he can sort things out. Everyone ok with that? Ok, Johnny, set up a meeting."

Because, insane and tin-foil-hat-esque as that sounds, I would not be one bit surprised that they would be stupid enough to do it, stupid enough to get caught doing it and the FBI stupid enough to sit on it while doing their bit to torpedo Clinton.

Actually, very little would suprise me about the current WH encombants except the ability to govern one of the most influential nations in the world.

He is so predictable. When under threat, he throws out a lot of shit to distract, to make us focus on something else. When he does that, he always accuses someone else. And let's remember that this time, one of the things people discuss is HIS previous distraction about wiretapping. He brought it up. It's nonsense. So let's force him to admit he had nothing. And/Or keep asking questions about it. It's a very serious accusation. Why did he say this? Shouldn't he apologize to Obama? Should he be taken to court? How come he is so poorly informed? How come he shows such poor judgement?

And... how about the millions of illegal voters? Where is the proof of that? He is possibly undermining the trust in the entire system, ironically the same system that made him President. Which of course calls for the question, is he legally the President? Should there be a new election?

And when put together, since he is so out of touch with reality, is he sane enough to fulfill his duties?

This is dated from yesterday, not sure if it's been covered by other posts concerning Trump's approval rating but he's hit another new low apparently.

Trump’s Approval Rating Hits New Record Low

Two months into his presidency, Donald Trump’s ratings continue to fall. The commander in chief’s approval rating fell to a new low over the weekend to 37 percent, :o according to the latest Gallup poll. That marks a sharp drop from the 45 percent of a week earlier and comes as Trump’s disapproval rating hit 58 percent, also a high point since the real estate mogul was sworn into office.

Needless to say, those are the worst numbers for any president this early in his administration in the history of modern polling.

Steven Dennis‏Verified account @StevenTDennis

Trump approval drops to 37% - the worst Gallup poll any president has ever had this early in their term.



Steven Dennis‏Verified account @StevenTDennis Mar 19

Bill Clinton also saw a 37% approval rating in his first year, but not until June 1993. (It was lowest approval rating of his presidency.)

Gerald Ford's all-time-low approval rating was also 37%.

Suffice it to say, Gallup approval this low has correlated with big losses in midterm elections.

Josh Jordan@NumbersMuncher

Gallup- Job approval upon hitting 60 days in office:
Carter 75
Reagan 60
HW Bush 56
Clinton 53
W Bush 58
Obama 63

Trump... 37

Josh Jordan@NumbersMuncher

Gallup- Job *disapproval* upon hitting 60 days in office:
Carter 9
Reagan 24
HW Bush 16
Clinton 34
W Bush 29
Obama 26

Trump... 58



The dip in Trump’s approval rating comes after a tumultuous week in which the president struggled to sell a plan to repeal and replace Obamacare and questions continue to swirl about Russia’s involvement in his campaign.

The Independent points out that Trump mocked Obama for his “record low” 39 percent Gallup approval rating in August 2011, a level he has now surpassed.

The latest Gallup numbers come on the heels of another poll that showed 57 percent of young Americans see Trump’s presidency as illegitimate. GenForward’s poll found that only 22 percent of 18-to-30-year-olds approve of the job Trump is doing as president, while 62 percent disapprove.

Spicer says that Manafort had a 'limited role in the campaign'. Says he came on board in June.

He was literally the GOP equivalent to John Podesta, as campaign chairman. He started in March.

And he's been *literally* living in Trump Tower for longer than Melania has.

He called Flynn a campaign "volunteer" too. :D

I had to pause for a moment to take in just how bonkers it is that the second in charge (and most senior civilian) at the NSA goes on public record to the BBC to call what his President is saying "arrant nonsense" and to have that followed by the head of the NSA (and Admiral) say today that he hopes the USA's allies have a strong enough relationship with the US to avoid permanent damage from Trump's fuckwittery.

And that's barely going to get a line in the write-up from today.

In family business news:

Quote
Ivanka Trump, who moved to Washington, D.C., saying she would play no formal role in her father’s administration, is now officially setting up shop in the White House.

The powerful first daughter has secured her own office on the West Wing’s second floor — a space next to senior adviser Dina Powell, who was recently promoted to a position on the National Security Council. She is also in the process of obtaining a security clearance, and is set to receive government-issued communications devices this week.

In everything but name, the first daughter is settling in as what appears to be a full-time staffer in her father’s administration, with a broad and growing portfolio — except she is not being sworn in, will hold no official position, and is not pocketing a salary, her attorney said.

Ivanka Trump’s role, according to her attorney Jamie Gorelick, will be to serve as the president’s “eyes and ears” while providing broad-ranging advice, not just limited to women’s empowerment issues. Last week, for instance, Ivanka Trump raised eyebrows when she was seated next to Angela Merkel for the German chancellor’s first official visit to Trump’s White House.

As her role in the White House grows — a role that comes with no playbook — Ivanka Trump plans to adhere to the same ethics and records retention rules that apply to government employees, Gorelick said, even though she is not technically an employee. But ethics watchdogs immediately questioned whether she is going far enough to eliminate conflicts of interest, especially because she will not be automatically subjected to certain ethics rules while serving as a de facto White House adviser.
