The Morning Rant

"So it looks like the Manafort trial wrapped it up yesterday. Turns out he's guilty on the tax evasion counts, for stuff he did back in 2005. This has nothing to do with Trump or any supposed collusion with Russia. Not only was that stuff not on the table, it wasn't even in the same room as the table. Also, Michael Cohen pled guilty to some campaign finance violations that were actually are smaller than Obama's. And this is a civil, not a criminal violation for which the Obama campaign had to pay a fine of $375,000. Which, again, has nothing to do with Trump or any supposed collusion with Russia. But the progs are all hootin' and hollerin' and giving each other high fives while going 'woo woo' as if they fully expect to see Trump in handcuffs by the end of the week. They're going to turn into tantrum-throwing two-year-olds when it finally dawns on them that it's all a big nothingburger with a side order of nada and a 16 oz. cup of bupkis -- with no straw. But by then they'll be on to the next scandal, which is looking like it's going to be some tape recordings Omarosa made of Trump burping after a meal. Of course, if she had anything really damning, she would've released it by now. My guess is that she's trying to squeeze every last dime she can out of the time she was with Trump before people catch on that she's got nothing."
