Thank you for providing even more material for the defamation suit we are actively considering filing against you and your colleagues. Stay tuned.

In response to Trump's Tweet:
DOJ just issued the McCabe report - which is a total disaster. He LIED! LIED! LIED! McCabe was totally controlled by Comey - McCabe is Comey!! No collusion, all made up by this den of thieves and lowlifes!

He has never understood anything, at all.

Not business, not politics, and least of all the law.

ALL of his businesses fail, which is why he owes Putin 1.7 billion

Its a translation form Spanish (El pez muere por la boca), and it is attributed to people who talk too much, and get in trouble because of their mouths which they have a very hard time controlling, just like trump. They don't even know that when they open their mouths too much they tend to incriminate themselves just like trump did during the Lester Holt interview, which by the way, in my mind is the one act of obstruction that should be very solid as he admitted the reason for firing Comey was because of the Russia investigation. I don't understand why the media doesn't not bring that up more.

You really aren't supposed to get away with calling people liars and criminals like he does routinely, and someone besides the brave but underfunded Servos should sue his pants off. He's going to have a hard time proving that he's telling the truth when he says these things about everyone.

...but he's got bigger things on his plate right now. Once the pension is secured and unfair firing has been proven, McCabe can turn to other things. But by then Trump will be in prison, so maybe McCabe will just let it go.

A guy who can fire anyone he wants, talk shit about anyone he wants, lie about anyone or anything he wants, pardon anyone he wants, spend as much government money as he wants, vacation as much as he wants and grab whatever pussy he wants.

Nice job America. We'll never be the same after this shitshow.

Too many people stayed at home in 2016 - look where that got us!

Trump's tried to corner credibility. Amazing the stable genius doesn't seem to have this angle locked down. Temper usually does in a bully.

"Der hat nicht alle Tassen im Schrank." This translates to "He does not have all of his cups in the cupboard." This is usually said of people who have completely lost it. A permanent Brain-Fart. Opposite of a "very stable genius", by the way...

I have been exposed to a lot of narcissists in my life. Narcissism is far more serious than some people make it out to be: It creates significant distortions in your perception of reality. And this can be dangerous...

Viola!
