You elected Trump as your president, just fucking deal with it.
Like, how in the fucking world aren't you doing anything about it? This is a joke, the US and it's citizens are a fucking joke at this point.
LOL

At least 27% of Americans love fascism, especially when it hurts minorities and make liberals cry.
That's the problem.
That has always been the problem.
"Let's see what happens."
I'm almost confident the GOP are compromised. They won't impeach him because Trump is exactly the type of man to throw everyone including his own kids under the bus to make a deal.
Yep. Our only hope is that enough democrats are fired up enough to vote this November. That's all we need.
I'll explain it again.
Donald Trump has 90% approval with republican voters. That's a historic high for in-party support, topped only by bush following 911.
Republicans in congress will never do anything substantive against him unless that number comes way down, and the chances of that happening any time soon are very low.
Two things to remember here:
Sanders isn't great at press sec stuff
She's never going to give outright denials

You're ignoring that actual numbers of Republicans have greatly dropped, even more so since Trump took office. So you have more fanatical people left.
in any case he's untouchable. Republicans are afraid of being attacked by Trump and buried by the base.
If I was McFaul, I'd be getting the McFuck out of the U.S.A right now and into a safer country.
If this is about Bill Browder, then this is sad.
*edit*
yep
The United States has been one of the few countries that has consistently defended Browder against Kremlin attacks over the last 5 years. He's been illegally detained in almost every country around Europe, because Russia has abused their Interpol status to compel Interpol to arrest him, hold him for 12-24 hours, and then finally release him of course with no charges because the Kremlin charges are all ridiculous (Literally, Russia charge's Browder with the death of his own lawyer, who was killed by Russians while he was held without charges and starved/tortued in a Russian prison, while Browder was 3,000 miles away). The only Western country that this consistently hasn't happened in, is the US, which has consistently called Russia's bull shit Interpol abuse tactics. Reversing this would be a travesty.
If you're not familiar with Browder's story, I'd suggest listening to Preet Barahra's interview with him from ~2016 or 2017. He's ben a frequent guest on other shows too, but it's a good interview in general:
The Death of Sergei Magnitsky (With Bill Browder): https://www.wnycstudios.org/story/death-sergei-magnitsky-bill-browder/
If you like this episode, I'd recommend following that up with Preet's interview with Garry Kasparov: https://www.wnycstudios.org/story/putin-pawns-and-propaganda-garry-kasparov/

No they'll start by listing off Democrats they think would be good candidates.
Americans don't let this to be the new normal. something needs to be done. Riots and disorder if needed to get that fat fuck out of there!
We lost our instantly eject most power political leader button, sorry.
Get out of here with this shit.
This is a joke. But Trump has already planted the seed for this. When he was talking up Russias "tippy top" nuclear aresenal. While saying ours was old and crappy
I honestly don't think he can just tell the police to arrest a man who hasn't committed any crime in the US.
I'm down for some riots, this shit has gone on for way, way too long
Good, let's ship all their asses to Russia with no take backs.
The US elected a damn pathetic person as President. Despite being the "leader" of the most powerful country in the world and having a nearly unshakable base supporting him this fool continues to act like a damn puppet. If he had a hint of courage he should just fucking ignore whatever bullshit Putin and co have on him and yell fake kompromat 24/7. Though I imagine that there is a bit of greed involved too.
I can hear you wringing your hands like Uriah Heep. Stop carrying 45's water.
By and large, thankfully, the US has been the one Western country that hasn't stood by while Russia abused their Interpol status to attack and disparage Browder.
Trump's base will do whatveer he wants, but reasonable minded Americans haven't stood for it before, and hopefully they won't going forward. A problem here is also that Russian espionage bots are starting a campaign to convince Americans that Browder donated $400,000 to the Hillary Clinton campaign. This is a lie and it's not true. Browder donated no money to Clinton, if anything, Browder is a neoconservative.
But the disinformation campaign has started against Browder.
PSA: If you read any stories about Bill Browder donating $400,000 or $400,000,000* to Hillary Clinton they are lies spread by Russian intelligence bots to try to soften Americans up to attacking Bill Browder, one of the world's chief Putin/Kremlin critics
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-m...-pants-fire-claim-about-400-million-donation/
*$400,000,000 -- Literally the Russian kremlin bots are spreading false rumors that Browder donated $400million to Clinton's campaign......... 400 million. ...... They toned that back to $400,000 because the million number was even too ridiculosu for them.
Keep stroking yourself while ignoring national protests, Trump losing the popular vote, Russia aiding him, etc. At least you can waltz in here braying about and manage to gain a feeling of self importance. You clearly need it.
Let's just get this out of the way: Republicans don't love America. They're all supporting this man either because they actually like him and want to follow him, or are too shit of people to stand up and say anything.
Republicans love themselves. They love their "ideal" America, one without liberals. As such, I agree, they don't love America. At least not the current party in charge or anybody still supporting Trump. Trump is the president of Republicans.
Dude, spare us your sanctimonious bull shit, please, because it doesn't help. Virtually nobody still on this forum, or in these threads, voted for Donald Trump, most of us have attended protests and rallies against him, donated money to candidates and causes against him, and work hard every day to oppose his presidency and return some sanity to the White House.
Unlike you, this is a story (Browders) I've been following closely for years. You just heard about it today because it's a thread on your favorite videogame forum. I petitioned my congressmen and senators to support the Magnitsky Act five years ago, back before smug people like you gave a shit about Putin or Russia, when Russia was a punchline for a joke during the US Presidential Debates (meanwhile, they were gassing up the tanks to roll into a European democracy to overthrow their government while the rest of Europe hemmed and hawed about how Putin would never do such a thing -- he's preparing to host the Olympics!).
We don't need some sanctimonious smug internet genius calling us a joke in every thread. It's not doing anymore to get rid of Trump or to slow down the spread of far-right populism in North America and Europe.

Yeah, it's getting quite tiresome. It's especially lazy for the armchair revolutionists to criticize others for not doing the rioting for them.
