The president should confess his affairs, admit he wanted to keep them quiet and apologize to the public for his deception.
If it wasn’t obvious before, it should be now: President Donald Trump is in an impeachment fight.
It hasn’t fully ripened yet. That won’t happen unless Democrats take the House and do so with a healthy margin in the fall. But Michael Cohen’s statement that he committed campaign-finance violations at the behest of Trump makes it that much more likely Democrats will impeach him once they have the power and the votes to do it...
The American public has a nearly boundless ability to forgive. Wayward politicians have fallen back on it throughout our history, whether it was Alexander Hamilton pouring out his guts over his sordid affair with Maria Reynolds, or John F. Kennedy admitting error in the Bay of Pigs, or Bill Clinton (after a season of extravagant and increasingly tinny denials) ’fessing up to his fling with Monica Lewinsky.
It is in this spirit that Donald Trump should confess his affairs with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, admit he wanted to keep them quiet ...
Of course, all of this is fantasy, given Trump’s natural instincts. A pugilist who never admits error, he surely believes that he can bluff and improvise his way out of the mess, and wait to abandon elements of his current version of events until strictly necessary. He thinks, not unreasonably, that he can continue to make his investigators the issue and that so long as he has the vast majority of his party with him he has a brake against a removal vote in the Senate...

Lowry is always good for a laugh.
Rich Lowry = Douche Nozzle.
I don’t give two craps what Trump did 10 years ago. He needs to do no such thing. If he is having affairs now and it comes to light, that’s a different story. Then he’s doing it on our time.
Hillary should confess to all the murders she has arranged.
The #NeverTrumpers are really coming out of the woodwork now, eh?
Lowry is a Never-Trump A-Hole who knows damn well his opening premise is a big fat lie!
Meanwhile killary is teflon.
Rich Lowry = Douche Canoe...and a pimple on American Society’s a$$.
Lowry is advocating for a Lefty Supreme Court and a Lefty federal bench, filled with Lefty judge-presidents issuing nation-wide injunctions about everything.
I’d settle for him not lying about it under oath. It’s just sex, after all.
What will Mueller’s fag gestapo give him in return?
Take one good look at Melania and you know Trump never had any secrets. He is no saint but is implementing policies that are good for the American people.
You first, Dick Lowry! Tell us your political motives you democrap puke!
They’re getting all weewee’d up over the coming blue wave like the good masochists they are!
Lowery and his boyfriends are why the are Republicans will become a permanent minority party post Trump.
Good grief!
When is Trump in an impeachment fight? Who lobbed what charge?
These Marxist Liberal America haters can all go to Hades and stay there for eternity, IMO.
I care about the Supreme Court... so I really don’t give two spits about anything they throw at Trump... and I mean ANYTHING.
Not that the press has anything interesting to throw at him anyway.
Stormy Daniels was a one night stand more than a decade ago as was the Bunny. If they were running around in the White House it would be one thing but this was years ago, consensual, and I would be willing to bet both women made out quite well financially at the time.
He responded to threats, that blackmail, I think the FBI should arrest both of them and their lawyers for extortion. Oh wai, we don’t have an FBI that is even vaguely interested in pursuing crimes, they are too busy making up a case to impeach the president.
