Paddler. Just one picture of a gun with you. Or something that you hunted. Maybe even a fishing pole. Heck even a sling shot. Trump is not in any trouble. So you are going to tell me that the District Court of NY is going to indict a sitting POTUS. Mueller is even on dangerous ground. The 25th amendment is a provision but is it really in effect with the passage of the Patriot Act that has declared that the US is in a state of emergency that gives POTUS Trump war powers as long as we are threatened by terrorists.Do you think he wouldn't declare these Democratic Deep State Dip schit hardliners not domestic terrorists attempting a de facto Coup? Do you know what happened with Roger B. Taney told Lincoln that he couldn't go suspend the writ of Habeas Corpus during times of emergency?Well Lincoln explained to Taney in Ex Merryman on his July 4th Address that in times of emergency that he didn't even need the approval of Congress. The POTUS has Fiat powers that are greater than those enumerated in the Constitution. His duty is to the American people and his power is determined by their support. So lets compare Trump at 41 % approval to Nancy and Chucky who are in the 20s % according to Real Clear Politics. Sure Trump could step down but he hasn't stepped back once. He would fight it unlike Clinton or even Nixon. So you are stuck with Trump for at least two more years buttercup.

Okay. Here's fishing:
Hunting:
That's a 28 gauge with #6 steel, BTW. The next is a 20 gauge Beretta SP V, which I just got back from my gunsmith yesterday, 3/4 ounce of steel 6s:
Just as sure as I caught that albacore 45 miles out of La Push in my 20' Hewes, or that chinook is over 30#, or that those birds were killed hunting on the ice locally, the Dumpster is in a heap of trouble. Now we know that Trump was in the room when paying off McDougal and Stormy was discussed, despite repeatedly lying about it. He's increasingly isolated, aides are leaving, I'm sure he's suffering. A lot, I hope, and things are only going to get worse for him and his family. Trust me.

Hey dip schit.....What's up with the heavy assed rods and fighting belt for Washington coast Albacore?? You must think you're going to catch a 500 pounder. In all the years I've fished for them and the hundreds I've seen landed not a single one went over 40 pounds, and most were considerably under 30 pounds. Mid to upper teens and low 20's is more common. Normal medium weight salmon rods an 25 pound test line is plenty. Unless, of course, your va-gee-gee gets to hurting you!
But you are an MD and know more than anyone else (although I've heard rumors that the nurses that know and work around/with you would argue against the validity of your medical schooling, but would totally agree that your are an arrogant ass in the extreme).
Things are not looking good for Robert Mueller, next time he better tell his bud Comey to keep his mouth shut before a judge rules on a case.. I think the end is coming for Mueller, this is the same judge that tossed the ted Stevens conviction..

Yeah, those reels are plenty for our albies. They're 6/0 Senators and Daiwa SLD30's with Lamiglas BFC rods, which I started with in 2006. But I've since upgraded to Daiwa SLT 50W's, Shimano Tiagra 30W's and Calstars. Running the Shimano's off the gunnels and the 50W's off the corners and shotgun. Why, you ask? Because it's fun. I use Shimano Convergence mooching rods with Islander MR3's for salmon, too. I could go cheaper, of course, but the Islander's are very nice. My gear choices are really none of your business, though. Read my signature line over on ifish. And read my lips, too, the Donald is in deep doodoo.

Former FEC Commissioner Hans Von Spakovsky debunked the argument that President Donald Trump broke campaign finance laws by paying women he allegedly had affairs with prior to becoming president.
The president’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, was sentenced to three years in jail on Wednesday for a litany of crimes, including making an illegal campaign contribution amounting to $130,000 to Stormy Daniels, who alleges she slept with Trump in 2006, so she would keep quiet about the affair.
Despite the guilty plea, Spakovsky said that Trump should not be worried because it would have to be a “campaign-related expense” for the contribution break any campaign finance laws.
He also pointed out that the only other time the Justice Department tried to say payments like these were campaign-related expenses was with John Edwards. Donations to Edwards’ campaign actually went to paying his mistress, a woman who worked for the campaign and ended up having his child. (RELATED: Trump Hits Back At Michael Cohen, Justice Department Claims)
A jury, however, ruled that Edwards’ donations were not a campaign-related expense.
Spakovsky went on to say that Trump has nothing to worry about and that the U.S. attorney’s office is being “overly aggressive” in their pursuit of the matter

Libs feel about Trump like I do the Clintons. I don't want to hear the Clintons are going to prison, I want to see them in prison. The wait continues.
Never happen. For the Clintons. Could happen for Trump. Several in his orbit have or are going to prison. It's called reality. Your dreams are fantasy.

Hey Paddler, WTF? Can't answer a basic question? I've asked you three different times on your Op's to tell us what crimes Trump is being charged with.

Here's a better photo of what the setup looks like offshore. In 2015, we were on a hot bite, and I had on rod in my hand when another one went off. I reached down to tighten the drag on that rod when the rod holder exploded. I watched helplessly as a nice Calstar with the Daiwa SLD 30 pitched overboard in 5000' of water. Unfortunately, Daiwa had discontinued those reels. I couldn't find one anywhere, so ended up replacing it and the other one with the Tiagras. That turned into a $1200 mistake. But now it's all gold reels across the back, which is good. I like symmetry.
I have resumed using the rod leashes to prevent a recurrence. The 50Ws have also been discontinued, so are irreplaceable. Really nice reels, they hold about 800 yards of 60# mono.
I've used 25# mono and caught fish on some old Squidders I cleaned up and replaced the drags with the HT100 carbon fiber drags. It's fun, but you need to be careful:
Oh, and about those gloves. If you don't wear them, after a few days of hard fishing your hands will be so cut up your fingers will swell so much you can't make a fist. If you catch lots of big fish, you'd already know that.

Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely
Anyone who isn’t more concerned with the fact that there are serious problems on both sides of the political spectrum - though not necessarily “for” because for some it apparently doesn’t matter, is missing some things.
The success that has been found in dividing the country - and it was carefully crafted by Obama - has resulted in a polarity that places ‘team’ well above integrity, truth, and right.
Sometimes, the air you 'let in'matters less than the air you 'let out'.

U!!! A doctor of ignorance and pure stupidity. Your two specialties.
Go read the Constitution. Go read Article 2. Go read about Separation of Powers. But NO! You like the corrupt media will never do THAT! It is purely based on hatred for Trump...
The LAW and the Constitution and Article 2 be damned when it comes to you Trump hating pathetic liberals.....

Before Newell reels came to the east coast we used to trick out Penn squidders for jigging schoolie tuna. Penn products have gone down hill and Newell went out of business. Daiwa and Shimano make great jigging reels but they are pricey. The Penn Baja Special is also good if you know how to upgrade the drag system.

I only use the Squidders on Calstar WC 270C rods occasionally to throw swimbaits after hooking up on the troll. Jigging with flat sided or butterfly jigs has become more popular over in Oregon and Washington. I prefer trolling, as I love to hear the reels go off. I also like using the handlines, it's really fun to pull them in hand over hand. Jigging is too much like work. I like using the heavy gear to get them in the boat quickly. Upgrading Penn drags is as simple as installing the HT100 drag washers. One of the reel gurus on ifish really stresses greasing those drags with Cal's or Shimano drag grease. I use Finish Line bike grease, works great and is less expensive.

Alan is the one I was referencing in my post above. I'm very familiar with his posts and have spoken with him on the phone. As I recall, he's a now retired pharmacist who ran a poison control center. I think he lives in Saratoga and fishes out of Monterey, the Bay area, etc. His SOP is to change the order of the Belleville washers to steepen the drag curve, grease drag washers but wipe off the excess drag grease to increase freespool times. As I don't fish live bait or cast much, I leave more grease on the drag washers in the interest of smoother drag. I don't care about freespool so much.

Oh, and about those gloves. If you don't wear them, after a few days of hard fishing your hands will be so cut up your fingers will swell so much you can't make a fist. If you catch lots of big fish, you'd already know that.
Before Newell reels came to the east coast we used to trick out Penn squidders for jigging schoolie tuna. Penn products have gone down hill and Newell went out of business. Daiwa and Shimano make great jigging reels but they are pricey. The Penn Baja Special is also good if you know how to upgrade the drag system.
I only use the Squidders on Calstar WC 270C rods occasionally to throw swimbaits after hooking up on the troll. Jigging with flat sided or butterfly jigs has become more popular over in Oregon and Washington. I prefer trolling, as I love to hear the reels go off. I also like using the handlines, it's really fun to pull them in hand over hand. Jigging is too much like work. I like using the heavy gear to get them in the boat quickly. Upgrading Penn drags is as simple as installing the HT100 drag washers. One of the reel gurus on ifish really stresses greasing those drags with Cal's or Shimano drag grease. I use Finish Line bike grease, works great and is less expensive.
The king of drag upgrades is a fellow by the name of Alan Tani. He's posted excellent reports on various forums online. I never met him but I am friends with offshore fisherman who have fished with him in southern California. Check out his posts.
Hold on now, I know Alan, he is a classy guy, works out of his garage in Los Gatos, why would you want to put Paddler upon him?
Here's a better photo of what the setup looks like offshore. In 2015, we were on a hot bite, and I had on rod in my hand when another one went off. I reached down to tighten the drag on that rod when the rod holder exploded. I watched helplessly as a nice Calstar with the Daiwa SLD 30 pitched overboard in 5000' of water. Unfortunately, Daiwa had discontinued those reels. I couldn't find one anywhere, so ended up replacing it and the other one with the Tiagras. That turned into a $1200 mistake. But now it's all gold reels across the back, which is good. I like symmetry.

Alan is a smart guy, way too smart to buy the Trump/Republican BS. I'm sure he's not into the conspiracy theories and racism here.

Anyone who isn’t more concerned with the fact that there are serious problems on both sides of the political spectrum - though not necessarily “for” because for some it apparently doesn’t matter, is missing some things.
The success that has been found in dividing the country - and it was carefully crafted by Obama - has resulted in a polarity that places ‘team’ well above integrity, truth, and right.
Obama was inclusive. Trump has done everything possible to divide us. To deny the foregoing is to deny reality.
.......................Just the OPPOSITE Paddle PUSS. U lie thru yer teeth......Obama was the DIVIDER in chief and the worst damn president in modern US history....................
You're an idiot.
................Well as they say,,,,,,,It takes one TO KNOW ONE!!!!.........Sure is interesting Piddle Puss that in all of your posts, not one time have you cited any law that Trump has broken or violated......Not talking about all the manufactured crap Mueller and his merry band of yo yo's are spewing......Anybody can say anything. ....The real question is? WHAT specific laws and statues has Trump broken which can then be taken to court?? Cite for us all the specific statute or code BY NUMBER please already on the books.
Now try and leave emotions aside and program whatever brain cells you have left and answer the question.........

I am totally baffled that you could come up with such a thing. Obama is bad enough, but the former first "lady", is a hard line afro-centrist.
We conservatives and liberty loving patriots had to tolerate the racist, liberal, divisive, globalist scum bucket Obama’s and their ilk for 8 years. So Paddler, I guess it’s your turn in the barrel, Bud. Deal with it. Help me understand why the tolerant Left is spewing so much venom. Don’t recall the conservatives rioting and dressing up like a penis or whatever. Happy Trails

I predict that nothing that comes out over the next months or years will convince you that Trump is a bad actor. You and others like you are impervious to the truth, reality and facts. You will be shocked, outraged and very unhappy by what lies ahead. Enjoy.

You remind me of the guy in the outfield playing baseball. Guy hits one to him and he going. I got it I got it I got it but then it hits the ground and he says no I ain’t got it. Keep trying though. Ed k
Did anyone happen to see the December 5th article in The Hill by John Solomon discussing the email exchanges between then-FBI Director James Comey, key FBI investigators in the Russia probe and lawyers in the DOJ’s national security division showing that they all knew the Christopher Steele dossier was a sham and not worth the paper it was written on, yet they still used it to secure not one, not two, but four FISA court warrants to illegally spy on an American citizen?
Muller couldn't find any real crime so now he is making up one. The progressive fascist news media is lying to the progressive fascists followers and claiming that there is a crime when there's none.
Former Federal Election Commission member Hans Von Spakovsky said Friday that the hush money payments made by President Trump are not criminal offenses.
Trump's payments to Playboy model Karen McDougal and adult film star Stormy Daniels have been scrutinized and looked upon as campaign finance violations.
The president himself has refuted the argument, calling the payments a "simple private transaction."
Spakovsky said on "Fox News @ Night" that neither the commission nor its former chairs see the payments as campaign-related.
"It's a personal expense. It's the same as a business expense of a business owner. It's not related to the campaign," he said.
Former Democratic Chief Counsel Julian Epstein said that "the statute is not clear" when it comes to what a campaign finance violation is.
He added that he's "skeptical" as to whether the argument against Trump would hold up in a court of law.
"During the Clinton impeachment, I and a lot of Progressives and Democrats were arguing the president isn't above the law, but he's also not beneath the law and that Clinton shouldn't be prosecuted in that case because civil perjury in that situation would have never been prosecuted," he said. "Some of that reasoning stands here as well."
Both Epstein and Spakovsky agreed that people would be "celebrating too early" if they think a campaign finance prosecution against Trump would be a good idea.

.............................LOL>>>>LOL>>>>LOL>>>>LOL>>>>>.......Well Well!........Paddler! I knew that you would not answer the direct question because YOU CANNOT........All the Trump haters including you Piddle and even the Mueller GOONS are operating on nothing more than pure gutless and cowardice emotion....Well let us throw this crap up on the wall and see if it sticks. If it does not, then we will try this crap over here and see if that sticks. And on and on and on.
LEGALLY and the LAW are two words missing from yer limited vocabulary and brain cells.
This entire hoax is to do nothing more than bring down Trump's poll #s for 2020. After everything comes out Paddle Pussy, the word backfire will be shoved so far up your pathetic ass that yer eye balls will be a burning.
