The Russia probe is not a hoax

Excellent tweet:

You have invested millions in Russia. Russians have invested millions in You. Your family met with them when they offered “dirt.” You invited them to hack. They hacked. You amplified what they stole. I don’t know what that is exactly. But it’s not a hoax. #TrumpRussia https://t.co/Gt34NnqwGq

Trump only cares about his base

Trump only wants to be president of his base. He doesn’t care about the rest of us. For a dinner this week with the president of France, Trump ignored tradition and didn’t invite Congressional Democrats or the media.

He did something similar last year for Hannukah.

It’s clear he has no interest in uniting the country. He doesn’t want to be my president and I look forward to the day he isn’t.

Sad!

Presidential values

Good tweet on the photo below.

It doesn’t say anything about the contrast with Trump. It doesn’t have to. Sad!

Each president in this photo did things I disagreed with politically. Quite a lot, in fact, for most of them.

And yet I never doubted that every single one of them acted based on core values, including love of country—not, primarily, love of self. pic.twitter.com/N19fV1zPoD

Trump is wrong when he said North Korea agreed to denuclearize

Trump claimed North Korea agreed to denuclearize but that’s not true. They have stopped testing.

Did Trump lie? Did he misunderstand? Is he capable of grasping the facts?

Sad!

Excellent tweet on the federal Cohen investigation in New York

When prosecutors uncover evidence of a serious crime, they are obligated to investigate it. Mueller went to Rosenstein for guidance and now federal prosecutors in Manhattan are investigating. That’s how the system is supposed to work. https://t.co/JSk7OuvCtq
