Trump has moved from denying his participation in multiple felonies to defraud the public onto faulty excuses, his MO.

FACT: Multiple witnesses have testified that payments to mistresses were meant to win the election. Even by Rudy Guliani on Fox News.

washingtonpost.com/news/politics/…
FACT: Breaking campaign finance laws can be civil infractions, but not if the perpetrator knowingly conspired to break them, as Cohen, Pecker and SNDY prosecutors contend Trump did.

nbcnews.com/think/opinion/…
FACT: Breaking the law out of ignorance, or because of advice of counsel is not a valid excuse. As this contention would also wave attorney-Client privilege, it’s also a very dumb one to make.

Impeachment in the House is possible, but toothless, as 20 GOP Senators would need to defect.

I’ve been convinced we would have to wait out Trump’s full term. I now think it increasingly likely that Trump will be forced to resign, perhaps in a deal to avoid prosecution.
On the most recent #PodSaveAmerica, @jonlovett had a worrying warning. Trump is undeniably scared, and that is when he is most dangerous.

What happens when he realizes his Presidency is unsalvageable? We may see the full extent of the cruelty he’s capable of.

The Trump admin cut the advertising budget for the ACA by 90%.

FOIA obtained emails show this was knowingly designed to harm enrollment, and they repeatedly lied about that fact.

Dem House oversight puts an end to the sabotage. Remember what they did when they had the power.
On a call w/ reporters, in response to whether HHS had studied the efficacy of advertising, an official said, “We haven’t done a specific study related to the public awareness of the program.”

It was a lie. They had, & knew it would harm enrollment.

huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-ve…
The day open enrollment began, the Trump administrator of ACA benefits wrote a tweet designed to scare Americans away from enrolling.

Now that Dems have won House oversight, she’s promoting enrollment. Oversight stops the sabotage.

Marathon Petroleum, largest US oil refiner, is running a secret campaign to push the Trump’s proposal to lower vehicle emissions standards.

We have so much oil, you see, we don’t need to conserve!

Climate scientists give us 10 years to cut carbon or suffer untold misery. 🤷‍♂️
Man made climate change is warming the arctic at a pace that is “unlike any other period on record.” It’s warming TWICE AS FAST the rest of the planet’s average temp, according to NOAA.

The hour is very late.
Our doom approaches,
and we’re regressing.

cnn.com/2018/12/11/wor…
A doomsday cult alliance of the Koch Bros and the oil industry worked behind the scenes to increase their wealth at the cost of the next generation’s lives.

They know climate change is real, they just won’t survive to suffer it’s greatest misery.

@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump This President is the most divisive president in the History of the republic. #TRUMP has publicly stated that he enjoys the chaos and conflict he causes in his administration, the Congress, and in the coutry. He stated that turnover, resignations, and turmoil gives him pleasure
@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump This proves his psychopathic mental illness and is dangerous and destructive to a democratic republic whose strength is in its UNITY and the RULE OF LAW that protects the least of us through equal treatment under the law. Our president routinely attacks BOTH, as AGENT OF RUSSIA!
@pollsofpolitics @MiamiPapers @NancyPelosi @POTUS @realDonaldTrump #POTUS has laundered money for #Russia for DECADES. It is the ONLY reason he was able to come back from multiple bankruptcys. He is on Russia's pocket, and they KNOW it. It is why he is fearful that he will be poisoned. He should have learned the moral of his #snake allegory.

Leslie Stahl did a bang-up interview of @POTUS #Trump last night. Here's a key part:
STAHL: Do you still think that #climatechange is a hoax?
TRUMP: I think something’s happening, something’s changing, and it’ll change back again. I don’t think it’s a hoax...[MORE]

"I think there’s probably a difference. But I don’t know that it’s man-made. I will say this: I don’t want to give trillions & trillions of dollars. I don’t want to lose millions and millions of jobs. I don’t want to be put at a disadvantage.

1/ Whenever I ask for evidence of Trump-Russia collusion, I get this circular-reasoning response:
How do you know that there was no collusion?
My answer: I'm NOT claiming there was no collusion, but I see #ZEROEvidence that Trump colluded. SHOW me your EVIDENCE!
2/ If I were to claim that you murdered someone, I would need to provide evidence of this. My claim does not make it have some sort of merit. If you insist you did not do this and want me to stop pushing such as accusation in public b/c it really did not happen, that makes sense.
3/ Would an innocent person remain silent in the face of a massive campaign by those who don't like that person making unsubstantiated claims? Would they not want to put an end to it? If I were #Trump, I would want this thing shut down too as it looks to be a witch hunt.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
