The Chief Financial Officer for the Trump Organization, Allen Weisselberg, has been granted immunity by Prosecutors in New York. He testified before a Grand Jury after being subpoenaed last month.
He joins Cohen and David Pecker, the Chief Executive of the company that publishes the National Inquirer, in “flipping” on Trump, giving really good information and then either making a deal or being granted immunity for their crimes.
It’s like rats jumping off the Titanic.

Enjoy this time guys , in the not too distant future we will be discussing this same subject , not really believing this man and time ever existed . His quotes will appear in comic books with ' guess who said this ?' sections. We will know , we were there . . . . . . but not believing it acually happened .

Aye! This Trump "rollercoaster" has been surreal ever since he appeared on the political scene and somehow overturned the Hilary Clinton "bandwagon", absolutely bizarre!

His poorly educated base,...reacts emotionally and not with rational thinking.Their information comes from sources that reinforce their existing beliefs,filled with lies,distortions ,racism and propaganda.
Funnily enough like brexit. Wonder why that is?
Because the same people have fuelled it.

Senator John McCain passed away at the age of 81 last night. He was a six term Senator for Arizona and one of the last good, proper Republicans.
RIP Mr McCain.

Yes I agree , disgusting comments from Trump ( !!!! ) about him only being a war hero because he was captured !! No mention of being badly treated and assaulted .

McCain was one of those politicians who voted with his conscience on what he thought was right. We might not have agreed with his decision but you know he wasn’t just taking the popular line like so many other do. To think we could have been talking today about the death of a former President had he not made that poor decision to have Sarah Palin as his running mate in the Presidential Election against Obama!!!
RIP.

I remember watching an interview with McCain about the 2008 Election where he said that he chose Sarah Palin as his Vice-President due to pressure from the party to use a woman to get the women’s vote from Hillary Clinton supporters who didn’t want to vote for Obama. It turned out to be a major xxxx-up as Palin was a dreadful choice and the Hillary voters voted for Obama anyway.
It made for great content for Saturday Night Live though.

Picking a woman to try to get the female vote is a sound policy but the choice of Palin was such a bad one!!! The Republican Party used her to appeal to the far right base as they were so unsure about moderate McCain being able to motivate that base to bother voting. I think the woman thing was secondary, almost a by product of that, but it was something that looked progressive. Problem was the Republican base did turn out and vote, but in places that were always going to be red anyway, and the female independents or moderate Democrats also turned out but voted Obama, as there was no way they were voting for a women that far to the right.
