I agree. If an attorney can’t help their client commit crime-fraud, what’s the point of retaining them?
 
As Cardinal George once stated to this effect, once you’re able to label someone or something, it saves you the trouble of thinking. That’s his philosophy.

So throw out all the labels you want. They don’t prove a thing.

Republicans believe in anti-liberty? anti-individual rights as protected in the constitution?

It all makes sense now.

Yes, if the meeting is not about him, his attention span is that of a child’s.

Donald Trump has four-minute attention span, Nato briefed

Speeches at President Trump’s first Nato summit next week will be limited to four minutes, in order to keep him engaged. Nato officials may also adopt tactics f

“Focus”? No call to be ill-mannered.

Trump claiming this police state kind of activity is a misfortune for America is exactly correct. he’s not the only one to think so; Alan Dershowitz being only one of the better known. If the ones being attacked in this way were Democrats, there would be a media firestorm unlike anything this country has ever seen…and rightly so.

As I said, denying the proper use of labels is silly.
Then again, you may have a point. So I guess it depends on usage. For example, I’m all in favor of getting rid of race and “ethnicity “ labels on the census.
 
Yes. Just like the rest of the people on these forums, I spend time with Trump, HRC, Obama, the Bushes, etc in the White House, or at their winter and summer retreats.

You said: “Perhaps because Trump seems to pay more attention to what he sees in television than what happens in a meeting, even if he himself said it during the meeting.”

My question is how do you Know this? How do you know what he’s focused on, what he pays the most attention to?
 
Because he says things in televised meetings, then as soon as it is criticized on television, he changes his mind.

I think those meetings last far longer than the televised parts. Don’t you think it reflects a flexibility on his part to change his mind? I mean, Obama did on same gender “marriage “.

Wasnt ill mannered or perjorative…just you replied to me with a comment that was not related to my comments…i cant work with that.

So again, if you want to dialogue, focus on what i said…otherwise post without using the reply function, and if you feel the need, use the quote function instead.

Starting with Flynn and Manafort and up to Cohen today, Trump should issue blanket pardons to everyone that Muller talks to.
 
I don’t think you can pardon them until they are actually convicted of a crime. No future pardons allowed, I know Flynn entered a guilty plea, but has he been convicted yet. Manafort and Cohen haven’t been convicted yet, so they can’t be pardoned.

No. Telling someone to “focus” is ill-mannered unless you’re helping your child with math.

Begging your pardon, but you cannot dictate to me whether or not I can use the reply function.

And I actually did reply in a related way. But if you did not think so, the more polite thing would have been to simply ignore my post, right? You’re always free to do that without being ill-mannered.

Actually Mueller would like nothing more than for Trump to Pardon them. They would lose all Fifth Amendment Protection in Court when it came time to testify.

It is not within his powers to pardon before conviction is set in stone.

I’m no legal expert, but I think it is within his powers to pardon for things 'arising out of" an even or series of events or accusations.
