538 has looked back at three of the biggest scandals in recent political history in the US, and it would seem that if we're hoping for the party to turn its back on him... it probably won't, and our hopes are in vain.

Quote of the night:
A senior official in the Trump administration, who previously worked on the president’s campaign, offered a candid and brief assessment of the fallout from that string of bad press: “I don’t see how Trump isn’t completely strawberry floated.

Apparently Fox News/Hannity, Brietbart, et al were leading with the real news... of Hillary ordering the assassination of a DNC staffer who was in touch with WikiLeaks before DNC got hacked.

Comey better hope that Trump doesn’t see that story or else he will end up trying to prove that he is the best assassin, just a tremendous assassin, the best, Hillary is just sad.

What is just utterly unfathomable in this is that it is Trump himself that lay the ground work for everyone believing the details of the memo. Not only did he suggest there were "tapes", with all the echoes of Watergate, but he made it clear even before this story broke that there were conversations between him and Comey that were obviously going to be problematic.

Every now and again i like to look at the_donald to see their reactions, and yeah, the entire subreddit was nothing but this story yesterday. Apparently the Comey stuff is fake news to distract us from the real story about Hilary ordering this hit.


It's just so weird how Trumpettes view the world. Even if Clinton was a criminal mastermind that orders hits on people, it doesn't change what a strawberry floating useless president Trump is.

They seem to believe that proving that Hilary did something wrong means Trump didn't do anything wrong.

Weird weird people.

Hannity will still be cheer-leading for Trump even if he gets impeached by his own party.
He makes ultra hardcore sports fans look impartial and the idea that someone that deluded is on a major news channel is rather scary.

The worst part of this is that the Rich family have begged these people multiple times to stop turning their son's death into a conspiracy but they keep at it. Poor guy was a passionate democrat and he's become a nazi conspiracy theory in his death.

The conspiracy banana splits are still hounding the parents of the kids murdered at Sandy Hook. Despicable banana splits.
