MarSolo Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 So I’m curious who the sources for Buzzfeed were, because this is pretty bad.

skillzdadirecta Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 A pundit on CNN made a good point this morning... that the Mueller Investigation has been very disciplined when it comes to leaks and that a breach like this would be uncharacteristically huge given how quiet and tight lipped they've been.

ThreePi Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 If anyone is planting false stories its Giuliani. Trump's too dumb to plant believable false stories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massdriver Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Ahh that’s what I get. The first time I got semi excited and interested in Trump’s alleged crimes and it ends up being false. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_m_b_m_b_m Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 So how many articles need to be posted about Trump wanting to do X but is told he can't because it's illegal? And gets pushback from people who worry about a career after Trump. Now imagine that but you have a weak willed guy who isn't used to scrutiny, just does what Trump says because that's what he's done the majority of his adult life?

Jwheel86 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 So what are realistic possibilities for what happened? It has to be somewhere between they made it up and it was a planted story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
