Trump thinking it's meaningful for authorities to state that he is not PERSONALLY under investigation and going to a lot of trouble to try to get them to do so is such an oddball, self-serving Trump thing to do.

It's really weird, actually.

Comey obviously stuck his own neck out to totally and completely vindicate Trump.

Chum, serious question. How often do you look up the daily political news?

Some days zero. Some days five times. Usually two or three. Here's the thing. With Trump, there's just ALWAYS some sensational news (fake if you prefer) to post here. Every time I look, there's something to post.

Michael Isikioff of Yahoo News reported that four top D.C. lawyers had refused to handle Trump’s defense.
...
Isikoff’s reporting suggests that a lifelong habit of skipping out on bills has saddled Trump with an attorney ill-prepared for the task ahead.

He's such a goddamn dipshit.

Most definitely, the 100% correct takaway here is that Trump's troubles are behind and everyone will be leaving him alone now.

There's nothing new under the sun.

We've seen the Flynn transcripts, he did nothing wrong.

The nation’s top intelligence official told associates in March that President Trump asked him if he could intervene with then-FBI Director James B. Comey to get the bureau to back off its focus on former national security adviser Michael Flynn in its Russia probe, according to officials.

Man if only Trump would just pull an Obama and cite Executive Privilege.

Are you trying to argue that Trump is dumber than Obama?

When I see the people in courtside seats at these Golden State games, I always think of how absurdly wealthy they must be.

Does anyone think that staying committed to the agreement was bad? Why? What's the rationale for leaving?

If people want to buy certain kinds of products over others, for whatever reason, why should amyone care? That's their business.

What's so special about today's climate? What if tomorrow's is better?

So, we should reverse course on previous decisions on the basis that we might like the alternative better? Wouldn't it follow that we should continually be reversing ourselves? Because there are continually alternatives we might like better? I don't think this is a very practical suggestion.

Or..... we could stop pretending we can really control the thermostat if only we spend enough money and raise the price of energy enough. I know this is difficult to grasp -  but one alternative is to just live our lives.

So, it makes you feel good not to pursue what you believe to be a fruitless endeavor. It makes other people feel good to pursue what they believe is not a fruitless endeavor. What is the reason to exit the agreement?

So now we're down to acknowledging this is nothing more than liberal butthurt feelings. Progress!!!

I'd put it this way. You say that all there is on the other side is liberal butthurt. Show me that you've got more than conservative butthurt on your side.

The juice isn't worth the squeeze.

You think staying in vs. exiting can be quantified? I don't.

Then how can we make any judgements for or against?

Is there value in being a part of the team rather than pissing off everyone else on the team? What sorts of values are there in exiting the agreement?
