Thatās not a fair comparison. Capone wasnāt stupid enough to self incriminate himself on tax evasion on national television by calling himself smart for getting away with it (at 1:08)

Actually, the investigation into illegal activities by the Trump campaign has been extraordinarily punctilious and judicious.
Drumpfās chief strategy seems to be brazen braggadocio about his and his co-conspiratorsā crimes.

45 wasnāt operating on a global stage under a gigantic microscope, either.
Thatās been one of of the most disquieting consequences of his disastrous presidency; how much everyday white collar corruption has been exposed because of it.
Had it not been for the orange buffoon, many crimes and unethical practices would have never come to light.

Finally, the tally is complete in Ohio.
At 104,328 to 102,648 votes, after outspending the Democratic Party 4 to 1, and Trump helicopter-stumping for Troy Balderson, I think that heād better enjoy his next 76 days while he can.

I fucking hope thatās the case, because I think that might actually have an impact with his evangelical base. Or not, because heās giving them conservative judges who will likely oppose womenās rights.

I donāt expect it to move the needle. The forced-birth movement isnāt about protecting children, itās about controlling women.

Take a wild guess where the illegal immigrant who allegedly killed that woman Fox News couldnāt stop blathering on about the past week was living?
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) ā A top Republican fundraiser whose firm works for several prominent immigration hardliners is the partial owner of the land where the Mexican man accused of killing Iowa college student Mollie Tibbetts lived rent-free, a farm spokeswoman said Friday.
Nicole Schlinger has long been a key fundraiser and campaign contractor for GOP politicians in Iowa and beyond, including this cycle for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Virginia Senate candidate Corey Stewart.
Schlinger is the president of Campaign Headquarters, a call center that makes fundraising calls, identifies supporters and helps turn out voters for conservative candidates and groups. Her business is one of the largest in Brooklyn, the central Iowa town where Tibbetts disappeared while out for a run on July 18.
