🌎Donald Trump—🌪️Roger Stone—🔥Paul Manafort—🌬️Roy Cohn

📃Part Two

🕵️‍♂️2008: Eliot Spitzer🕵️‍♂️

villagevoice.com/2010/10/05/eli…
🔍Months before the scandal became public, Roger Stone tipped the FBI in a letter (written by Stone’s attorney Paul Rolf Jensen) that then New York Governor and former Attorney General of New York Eliot Spitzer had a “thing” for prostitutes.
🔍In March of 2008, details of the scandal came out—complete with Stone’s intimate details that Spitzer wore black dress socks while having sex.

🧚‍♂️The myth of the black sox appeared to be invented by Roger Stone.

😬Meanwhile, Spitzer was forced to resign in disgrace.

I have a few things to say about this piece that just dropped...

Why the #Bernie Movement Must Crush #BetoORourke
nymag.com/intelligencer/…
The insistence by white male writers that there is a two-white-man race out there between Bernie & Beto is so deeply, stunningly misogynist, it takes my breath away.

How is it POSSIBLE that these folks missed the blue wave which was fundamentally female--driven by women voters?
Not just driven by women voters, but driven by women candidates. Left-leaning women candidates, including WOC who ousted long-time older white male incumbents like....Bernie Sanders.

How is anyone missing this fact?
It's a major reason why Sanders' numbers have plummeted.

Bernie Sanders has a national political infrastructure, locked-in support from significant portions of the electorate, and an alternative media ecosystem that is intensely devoted to him. The fact that his 2020 chances are being so heavily downplayed is borderline delusional
He's most likely going to be running against a huge field of people who are very similar to one another in numerous respects, so even eking out a plurality would be sufficient in the early stages of the primary (as Trump demonstrated last time)
Of course it won't be easy and nothing is certain, but "the fundamentals" are absolutely there for a run that is on much stronger foundation than the conventional takes would have you believe. His political capital has not diminished since 2016, but grown

Please drop those sources.
I have found that there was 16 stories in a 24 hour period in Mar 2016. They were about Sanders but they were speaking the truth. If that is what he considers 'negative" then what would he call his supporters attacks against Hillary and Democrats for the last 3+ years?

Which we have been screaming since 2016.

I did an entire thread to the Manafort - Devine connection.

It was recently revealed that Devine was sharing polling data with Manafort during the primary. They are all in this together & the media ignores it purposely.
@MaddowBlog why?
1/ After it was revealed on @maddow that Manafort/Russia was working as far back as 2012 to smear Hillary Clinton it made more sense.

Think about this. Who was going to primary against Pres Obama in 2012? Bernie Sanders
2/ Why didn't #Sanders follow through? My opinion based on the timeline of events & the extensive research I have done on #TadDevine, is that Sanders was told to hold off until 2016 by Devine. We know that Devine was working with #Manafort on the Ukraine election during this time

This is not my post but I wanted to share it with you all. It came off a centrist Dem forum from a poster defending Bernie. It says it all. 👇🏽👇🏽

"The agenda is to diminish Bernie Sanders personally as a political force. The goal is to make him toxic as a 2020 potential
presidential candidate. Bernie Sanders the actual human being doesn't rank among the top 250 million factors protecting privilege in America.

To fail to note that Bernie Sanders has consistently been a loyal supporter of the legislative agenda of "angry blacks, hysterical women
and the like" for unbroken decades of his political career is a telling clue. To act like it is perfectly normal for one of the most popular politicians associated with a progressive (and yes Democratic) agenda for America to be treated like the Exhibit A poster child of

allow me to explain:

first thing to realize is that compromise usually involved splitting the difference (e.g. arbitration -- if you've ever been privy, you know exactly what i mean).

next you need to understate that starting positions matter
now we come to the republicans..

they know to start out WAY to the right of anything sane

democrats, being slightly more reasonable tend to open with somthing they thing will win the other side over to their POV.

... it ... will ... not ....

so this happens.
after a few years of this (say since 1980) you end up with both parties being FAR to the right of anything that a rational person would consider CENTER
