>Donald Trump’s dealings with Russia could be a bigger political scandal than Watergate, according to one of America’s most experienced political journalists.
>“Watergate is the biggest political scandal of my lifetime, until maybe now,” former CBS news anchor Dan Rather said, in a post on Facebook. “It was the closest we came to a debilitating Constitutional crisis, until maybe now.”
>His comments come after the White House admitted the President was told several weeks ago that National Security Adviser Michael Flynn had not told the truth about a telephone call with a Russian diplomat—and chose not to fire him immediately. The news has fuelled broader concerns about Mr Trump's closeness to Vladimir Putin and the role Russia may have played in helping him get elected.
>“On a 10 scale of Armageddon for our form of government, I would put Watergate at a 9,” said Mr Rather, who won acclaim for his coverage, as a White House correspondent, of the scandal that led to President Richard Nixon's resignation in 1974. “This Russia scandal is currently somewhere around a 5 or 6, in my opinion, but it is cascading in intensity seemingly by the hour.”
>Mr Flynn handed in his resignation amid mounting controversy over his interaction with Russian officials, and a false assurance he gave that he had not discussed the issue of sanctions.
>Meanwhile, law enforcement and intelligence agencies reportedly found that members of Mr Trump’s campaign and other associates had repeated contact with Russian officials in the run-up to the election.

The Bushes, Clintons and Obamas have been wiretapping the country for years.

Dan Rather can swallow a bucket of cocks. He's a propagandist who is owned by Soros and Murdoch, and probably the CIA.

Fuck him in the neck.

Watergate? Really? Not the White Water scandal, where many witnesses "killed themselves" by shooting themselves in the back of the head or drowning themselves while completely bound? Cool beans, Dan Rather. I'd Rather you go kill yourself in a similar fashion.

"I was important and respected at one time and I have opinions now which are not based on facts that I can provide or evidence that is available. Just trust me ok?"
This is why they lost. This is why they continue losing. Even if he was right (I doubt it but hey, could happen) he is saying the same unsubstantiated nonsense that has been in circulation for the last 8 months.
If they had real, hard evidence of some sort of wrong doing I am more than willing to listen but this sort of "news" is really just another shovel full of dirt onto the casket of "modern" news.

Have to say that I agree. I've heard that Trump recently bought a large chunk of a Russian oil company. It seems that the Russians do have material on Trump too. And obviously the Russians were intervening in the last election. The only question now is who knew what and what about the contacts that were happening, and also what was the content of the contacts.
I suspect that this is the beginning of the end for Trump. All hail President Pence.

Blood in the water, sea full of sharks.
Same as the pre-election, take a story, run "Trump is a baby raping pedophile" across America and claim victory for months on end.
Lose anyway. They are the worst kind of subhuman scum, the kind smart enough to destroy civilization but dumb enough to not know they're being controlled to do it.
Dominic Russell
>deep state soft coup
I'm convinced they wanted to "give Trump a chance." After countless embarrassments to the country, obvious ties to Russia, and general ineptitude they deemed him a danger to the country, so they're taking actions to neuter him.
The deep state is a safety net put in place to take over when the president is incompetent, or compromised by foreign powers. Checks and balances and all that jazz. I'm actually glad they exist.
Remember, Trump lost the popular vote. Deep state could overthrow him, or legally impeach him, and the majority of Americans would herald the deep sate as saviors of the free America world.

>Watching someone defend the deep state on Sup Forums
Dusting off shitcanned Dan Rather as a callback to the days when the mainstream media wasn't openly named as a colluder with the deep state in order to mislead the public.
"Fake news" is really rattling the MSM if they're dragging out this geezer to lend their current shilling campaign a shred of credibility.

Dan Rather got an award for doing fake news. Not kidding. After his made-up Bush story, Rather got canned. The media got together and gave him an "achievement " award to whitewash what he/they did.
