[h=1]Carl Bernstein: It would be 'very, very damaging' for Trump if he knew about Trump Tower meeting beforehand[/h] By Morgan Gstalter - 07/27/18 02:02 PM EDT

CNN analyst Carl Bernstein said Friday it would be “very, very damaging” for President Trump if he knew about his son’s meeting with Russians in Trump Tower before it happened.
Bernstein, the former Washington Post reporter who broke the Watergate story, reported on Thursday that Trump’s former longtime attorney Michael Cohen says Trump had prior knowledge about the June 2016 meeting between his campaign officials and Russians.
“It would be a stunning development if the president of the United States — then about to become the nominee of his party — knew of that meeting in advance because the meeting itself that did take place suggests a kind of collusion in the sense that those present expected to receive information from the Russian participants,” Bernstein said.
“If the president knew about this in advance, it is a very, very damaging piece of information, especially while he and his campaign are under investigation by the special prosecutor,” he added.
The June 9 meeting at Trump Tower was set up by Donald Trump Jr. after a Russian lawyer promised dirt on Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort attended the meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya.
Trump Jr. was told by music producer Rob Goldstone, who arranged the meeting, that a Russian lawyer was poised to offer information that “would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father.”
Trump has said he had no knowledge that the meeting was taking place, and in a series of Friday morning tweets accused Cohen of making up the story.
"And so the Fake News doesn’t waste my time with dumb questions, NO, I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don jr," Trump wrote on Friday.
Bernstein suggested that either Trump or Cohen could be lying.
Although Cohen is looking for a “get out of jail free card” by cooperating with special counsel investigators, Bernstein noted that Trump often finds “wiggle room” when it comes to the truth.
“Sometimes he’s been truthful about some matters, but he also sometimes finds some wiggle room,” Bernstein said. “Whether any wiggle room is possible here in the two versions, I have no idea.”

Watergate Figure John Dean Warns Trump: 'I Don't Think It Is Boding Well For The President'






Ed Mazza,HuffPostJuly 27, 2018

https://www.yahoo.com/news/watergate-figure-john-dean-warns-084702589.html


One of the central figures in the Watergate scandal that took down President Richard Nixon has a warning for President Donald Trump.
John Dean, the White House counsel to Nixon who ultimately cooperated with prosecutors, said Trump could be in big trouble if longtime personal attorney Michael Cohen flips and helps special counsel Robert Mueller.
“I don’t think it is boding well for the president,” Dean told CNN. “It’s clear, as I read the situation, that Michael Cohen is looking for a deal and he is upping the stakes.”


Earlier this week, Cohen released a secret recording of himself and Trump from 2016, which prompted attacks on the attorney from the president and his supporters.
That’s a situation Dean knows well.
“When I became a witness, there was a huge effort to discredit me,” Dean said on CNN. “It was just my word against Nixon’s until the tape came out, and they worked mightily to try to discredit me.”
Dean, who the FBI once called the “master manipulator” of the Watergate cover-up, has long been critical of Trump.

It is ludicrous that the DNC with the blessing of Obama and Clinton can
pay for a fake dossier and then use said fake dossier to obtain FISA
warrents to spy on Trump and no one blinks an eye.

Yet when Trump Jr. attends a meeting where nothing transpires it's criminal.

Yes folks our judiciary is that fucked up.

Two decidedly different viewpoints.

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “At This Hour,” House Intelligence Committee Ranking
Member Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) stated that if Michael Cohen’s reported claim
that President Trump knew of the Donald Trump Jr.-Russia meeting, “it effectively brings
the issue of collusion or conspiracy right to the president’s feet.”

Really?

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “AC360,” Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz stated that
if Michael Cohen’s claims about President Trump’s knowledge of Donald Trump Jr.’s Russia
meeting are true, it’s “a big deal from a political and public relations point of view,”
but it isn’t a legal issue.

And the wheels on the short bus go round and round.

the meeting took place, everyone knows this, and NOTHING happened to the participates

What difference does Trump knowing about it make? His son was there, he was questioned, it's a non issue. Trump knowing about a meeting where nothing wrong happened means what again?

The left is a bunch of lying losing fucking idiots that miss all the suck they brought to the world. They're a genetically inferior species

Dershowitz' views on what can or cannot be done to a sitting President are shared by very few in the legal community, and I'll take the legal opinion of former LA prosecutor Adam Schiff over AD's every day of the week-and, the fact that Dump's Dummies are reacting so, uh, outraged, at Cohen would seem to indicate that they don't think the issue is not particularly important, lol. But, as I've asked countless times before, if Dump is innocent, why does he give a rat's ass if Cohen flips?

As usual, Dumbo, you haven't the slightest idea wtf you're talking about: Avanetti has cleaned Cohen's(and Dump's) clock almost every step of the way thus far. As far as Dershowitz, he's almost as over the hill as his fellow septuagenarian, Looney Rudy:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...whats-happened-to-you/?utm_term=.0864d9b43c08

The senile schmuck left Harvard years ago, wake up, Dumbo. Meanwhile, Schiff made his bones as a prosecutor in LA:

After Harvard Law School, Schiff began working as a prosecutor in the Los Angeles branch of the U.S. Attorney's Office. While an assistant U.S. Attorney, he gained attention by prosecuting a case against Richard Miller, a former FBI agent convicted of "passing secret documents to the Soviet Union in exchange for a promised $65,000 in gold and cash."[SUP][4][/SUP] The first time Miller was tried, it resulted in a hung jury; the second time, it resulted in a conviction overturned on appeal,[SUP][5][/SUP] and the third time he was convicted.

Try again, Dumbo.

4.1 gdp growth


impeach that, comrades.

Lol, ANOTHER misinformed Twittler Twat. The key part of the following, showing that, as usual, Dump is a lying scumbag, "historic proportions," ROTFLMAO!!!!:

"Friday's announcement marks the nation's highest rate of growth during Trump's presidency so far, though it is not unprecedented, despite Trump touting it as evidence of an "economic turnaround of historic proportions."
President Barack Obama, whose first election coincided with a debilitating economic collapse, had four quarters of higher growth than this during his presidency. It would tie for the fifth strongest quarter under President George W. Bush and the 13th strongest quarter under President Bill Clinton.



Trump touts 'amazing' 4.1 percent U.S. economic growth

A surge in consumer spending and exports pushed the pace of economic growth to its strongest showing in nearly four years.
by Lucy Bayly and Jane C. Timm / Jul.27.2018 / 6:04 AM ET


The U.S. economy grew by an annual rate of 4.1 percent in the second quarter, marking the fastest pace since 2014.
A surge in consumer spending and exports pushed the rate of gross domestic product growth slightly higher than the 4 percent that economists had predicted, according to figures released Friday by the Commerce Department.







Trump takes victory lap after reports of strong U.S. economy performance

Jul.27.201802:14



President Donald Trump called the rate "amazing" and predicted further growth at the White House Friday.
"We're on track to hit the highest annual average growth rate in over 13 years and I will say this right now, and I'll say it strongly. As the trade deals come in one by one, we’re going to go a lot higher than these numbers and these are great numbers," Trump said.
Friday's announcement marks the nation's highest rate of growth during Trump's presidency so far, though it is not unprecedented, despite Trump touting it as evidence of an "economic turnaround of historic proportions."
President Barack Obama, whose first election coincided with a debilitating economic collapse, had four quarters of higher growth than this during his presidency. It would tie for the fifth strongest quarter under President George W. Bush and the 13th strongest quarter under President Bill Clinton.

The president repeatedly credited his administration for the growth — which had begun before he took office — and suggested that his trade policies had stopped other countries that had "stolen our jobs and plundered our wealth."
There have yet to be any new trade deals struck under the president, though he has raised tariffs and pulled out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Still, he argued that his trade negotiations had made a big impact.
"Perhaps one of the biggest wins of the report, and it is indeed a big one, is that the trade deficit — very dear to my heart, because we've been ripped off by the world — has dropped by more than 50 billion dollars," Trump said.





US economy grew 4.1 percent in second quarter

Jul.27.201802:55



The president was also adamant that this was the start of a consistent rate of higher growth. Most economists say the economy is doing well right now, though they do not expect this very high rate of growth to continue.
"We have added 3.7 million new jobs since the election, a number that is unthinkable when we went back to the campaign, no one would have said it," Trump said, taking credit for the final months of Obama's job growth along with the growth under his own administration.


The president actually promised far more than that: At his inauguration, he promised 25 million jobs over the next decade, or roughly 208,000 jobs a month for 10 years.
Historic low unemployment, a steady rise in wages, and a variety of tax breaks likely boosted spending by businesses and consumers during the April through June period.
Trump indicated on Thursday that he was expecting a strong number, telling a rally at an Illinois steel plant, "Somebody actually predicted today 5.3 [percent growth]. I don’t think that’s going to happen — but if it has a 4 in front of it, we’re happy."
"These are unthinkable numbers," Trump said at the rally. "If I would have used these numbers during the campaign, the fake news back there would’ve said 'He's exaggerating.'"
Trump has made economic growth one of the cornerstones of his presidency, pushing forward with a fiscal stimulus plan that includes tax reform, deregulation, and infrastructure spending to revitalize the economy after the Great Recession.
Friday's figures all but solidify the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will continue its plan of gradually raising its benchmark interest rate for the remainder of 2018 and into 2019. The Fed, led by Trump-nominated Jerome Powell, has raised rates twice by one-quarter of a percentage point so far this year. The current consensus is that the Fed will hike rates to 3.4 percent by 2020 in order to keep inflation under control.
