10. This is a BS post if ever I saw one. You manage to slam and smear two great Dems with falsehoods...

May 2018

Both Governor Howard Dean and President Barack Obama are out of office, in case that escaped your notice.

The events in question -- and the investigations that are bringing them to light -- were either discovered or happened after they left office.

Howard Dean was governor of Vermont, and not in a position to arrest anybody. In fact, neither Presidents nor Governors are in a position to wave their scepters and tell their private police forces to arrest and jail anyone -- this being the US and that being a separate function of government from theirs.

Donald Trump only wishes it worked that way, but so far, he is wrong.
