With speculation that Michael Flynn is cooperating with Robert Mueller punters think Trump won’t serve a full term

With speculation that Michael Flynn is cooperating with Robert Mueller punters think Trump won’t serve a full term

This has the potential to be so much fun. 'A Split From Trump Indicates That Flynn Is Moving to Cooperate With Mueller.' https://t.co/gIpUfeW6An — TSE (@TSEofPB) November 24, 2017 Despite the Flynn speculation I won’t resile from my position that Trump will serve a full term because the Democrats won’t be close to having the two thirds vote to successful convict a President following impeachment. Plus the Republicans will only vote to convict in sufficient numbers if Trump is caught in…

Trying to understand why the Lib Dems aren’t doing better in the polls

Trying to understand why the Lib Dems aren’t doing better in the polls
