Dan Rather: "Hurricane Vladimir" Is "Approaching Category Four" For Trump Presidency
Real Clear Politics ^ | 8/31/2017 | Tim Hains

Posted on 08/31/2017 6:44:57 PM PDT by Republican Wildcat

On Wednesday's edition of 'All In With Chris Hayes,' former CBS News anchor Dan Rather discusses the president's "fear" over the investigation into his alleged ties to Russia.

DAN RATHER: This is unique like so much with President Trump's presidency. First of all, we have never had a first-term president get off to such a chaotic, unsteady start as this. The general pattern is the president is most popular when he first comes into office and then in the nature of things, his popularity declines.

But what you're seeing with President Trump -- and I think it's very clear, Chris -- it's not a Democrat or Republican assessment. It's not a biased assessment. It is just looking at what is happening here.

Donald Trump is afraid. He's trying to exude power and strength. He's afraid of something that Mueller and the prosecutors are going to find out...

A political hurricane is out there at sea for him, we'll call it Hurricane Vladimir if you will, the whole Russian thing.

It's still pretty far out at sea, but each day... this hurricane, this political hurricane... is building in intensity. It started as a category one, now it is a two. It is approaching category four. I don't want to stretch this metaphor too far, but that's what is on Donald Trump's mind.

Dan Rather finally found a Commie who scares him.

Of course when Putin was in the KGB (or when there WAS a KGB) Ratherbiased wasn’t skeered.

Mr. Rather, no one believes you anymore. You took a shot, lost, and now your credibility is gone.

my Lord. these commies lie lie lie lie lie and they have the mass media to mislead the public, too

if there were ever any evidence of any wrong-doing, it would have been posted, published by NOW, especially by liars like DanR

instead he just talks and produces NOTHING, so at least so far it is all lies lies lies

such people deserve imprisionmment, imho

This is yet another fool who doesn’t realize that we don’t need to start filming the pro-Trump re-election campaign commercials for at least another two years.

We’ll keep this on file ‘til then.

P.S. Dan - didn’t you get the memo? This week it’s Trump is unbalanced. Last week it was Trump is a racist. He hasn’t been a Russian collaborator for over three weeks!

Please be sure to read your talking points each morning!
