Trump has entered Phase 2 of his legal defense strategy: All-out war with Congress

[longknife]

One can expect a headline like this from “America’s Newspaper” with its ultra-left bias. However, the gist should raise the spirits of every American who support this president. It means that sitting back and doing nothing during the Mueller Farce is over.

We are seeing Phase 2 of Donald Trump’s legal strategy to defend himself against government investigations. It’s called, “We’re fighting all the subpoenas,” and it amounts to an all-out war with Congress.

The Mueller investigation turned out to be a fool’s errand from the start. As Barr has stated repeatedly, prosecutors make “binary” decisions: Charge or don’t charge. Except here’s the trick: When investigating a president, given DOJ policy, the only possible decision is don’t charge. In other words, heads I win, tails you lose. Cooperation is easy when you can’t be charged.

And, of course, USA Today is calling it “an escalating accumulation of obstruction.”

You have to realize that the idea of just reporting the news has been long dead. The idea of telling everyone what to think about what is being reported has taken its place. The idea that emotion sells better then news has been a proven idea in advertising sales. If you can link emotion and news then the advertisers wile follow. Profit goes up.

In the end profit is the driving force. The problem is trying to understand wether to sell a negative emotion or positive emotion with the news story.

That's what I admire most about Pres.Trump.

He never gives up and he never quits fighting when challenged. ...

True. In the dog eat dog world of NYC real estate and after surviving a business career, its not surprising that Trump knows how to survive challenges. When he first took office, Morning Joe said that "leaks would sink his presidency". He prosecuted the leakers, and is still after them. Then the bogus Russia collusion investigation and coup attempt, and then that petered out. Now he has global issues to deal with, like NK, Iran, Russia, China, Venezuela, and he's hanging tough for the US workers.
Can you picture Joe Biden driving the bus? He'd probably be like Obama, "those jobs are not coming back".

The "war with congress" probably doesn't even make his radar...
