The president told the New York Times on Wednesday that any digging into matters beyond Russia would be out of bounds

The U.S. special counsel investigating possible ties between the Donald Trump campaign and Russia in last year’s election is examining a broad range of transactions involving Trump’s businesses as well as those of his associates, according to a person familiar with the probe.

He just can't stop shooting himself in the foot. What a fucking moron.

He just can't stop shooting himself in the foot. What a fucking moron.

They asked him what he thought about the possibility of the investigation digging into his family on issues not connected to Russia, and with nothing really specific being looked for, just fishing. What do you think he said to that?

Or you can go with your fake news version of events.

He is the goddamn President of the United States. What kind of fucking moron would you have to be to tell the Press that an investigation into your business matters is "off limits"? How could you possibly think that's not going to blow up in your face, even if you did have nothing to hide?? He is the single least self-aware human being outside of a mental ward.

Lol, grumps is totally pissed that we didn't elect a professional liar like he wanted. What's the world come to when the president doesn't tell you exactly what you want to hear. There ought to be a law!

[Dand]

It literally is not blowing up in his face. There is no story.

The progressives seem upset today more than usual.

I know Trump's transcripts are pretty rough, but his answer didn't seem super unreasonable to me. I would prefer a little more eloquence from him obviously, and if Mueller feels he has to investigate Trump's finances to support his investigation, well then I guess go for it, Trump is a public servant and I couldn't really give a fuck about his expectation of privacy, but I don't blame him for not immediately surrendering all of his financial information to some FBI hack

SCHMIDT: Last thing, if Mueller was looking at your finances and your family finances, unrelated to Russia — is that a red line?

HABERMAN: Would that be a breach of what his actual charge is?

TRUMP: I would say yeah. I would say yes. By the way, I would say, I don’t — I don’t — I mean, it’s possible there’s a condo or something, so, you know, I sell a lot of condo units, and somebody from Russia buys a condo, who knows? I don’t make money from Russia. In fact, I put out a letter saying that I don’t make — from one of the most highly respected law firms, accounting firms. I don’t have buildings in Russia. They said I own buildings in Russia. I don’t. They said I made money from Russia. I don’t. It’s not my thing. I don’t, I don’t do that. Over the years, I’ve looked at maybe doing a deal in Russia, but I never did one. Other than I held the Miss Universe pageant there eight, nine years [crosstalk].

SCHMIDT: But if he was outside that lane, would that mean he’d have to go?

[crosstalk]

HABERMAN: Would you consider——

TRUMP: No, I think that’s a violation. Look, this is about Russia. So I think if he wants to go, my finances are extremely good, my company is an unbelievably successful company. And actually, when I do my filings, peoples say, “Man.” People have no idea how successful this is. It’s a great company. But I don’t even think about the company anymore. I think about this. ’Cause one thing, when you do this, companies seem very trivial. O.K.? I really mean that. They seem very trivial. But I have no income from Russia. I don’t do business with Russia. The gentleman that you mentioned, with his son, two nice people. But basically, they brought the Miss Universe pageant to Russia to open up, you know, one of their jobs. Perhaps the convention center where it was held. It was a nice evening, and I left. I left, you know, I left Moscow. It wasn’t Moscow, it was outside of Moscow.

HABERMAN: Would you fire Mueller if he went outside of certain parameters of what his charge is? [crosstalk]

SCHMIDT: What would you do?

[crosstalk]

TRUMP: I can’t, I can’t answer that question because I don’t think it’s going to happen.

[Penner]

yeah, they're gonna destroy it.

They already did with season 4. What a disappointment.

South Park has already stated they won't do any Trump jokes next season: http://us.blastingnews.com/showbiz-tv/2 ... 26101.html

Arrested Development is going to be extremely late to the punch and probably unfunny like Season 4.

Season 4 was okay but I felt like that in some place it stalled.
