One of HanAssHole's reddit posts mentioned that he was a teenager in the 1990s.
Supposedly, yes. Saddam posted an image in the post I'm responding to. But, if we're trusting unsourced screenshots of now-deleted posts, we're going to be trusting a lot of fake shit.

The subredit it's posted in.  (found the fucker)

https://www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/5b7g8l/after_20_years_of_construction_the_james_webb/d9nbc4l/?context=3

Could it still be fake?  Sure.  But it's far less likely.  I mean, pretty big coincidence that the text is identical AND the name is deleted.

If you are going to DebOOonK an expert then you have to at least provide a source with credentials of equal or greater relevance. Even then, it merely shows that some experts disagree with each other.

HanAssHole sounds like the handle of a 15 year old. On the other hand, this is Reddit.

My only minor contention here is that someone *could* have deliberately sought out deleted posts to generate the screenshot. But yes, I agree that this at least merits consideration. Perhaps CNN is blackmailing an adult man rather than a teenager.

Yeah. :/

Though stupidly, the moderators of TheDonald subreddit erased his apology cause evidence keeping just isn't there thing.

No, Trump said they're talking about it.  Given how prone to exaggeration, I'd wager it was really:
"Why the fuck did those morons let their emails slip? Because now we have to deal with this asshole."

It's very complicated, this stuff. Did you know that Taiwan was once part of China? I had no idea. Believe me.

Trump: Did you hack the DNC?
Putin: No.
Trump:... ok, I believe you.  Wanna help me electronically secure our next election?

Fuck it. I'm starting some sort of turbo-fascist technocratic state and taking over the world. Anyone wanna join?

Sure.
I'll play to my strengths.  I'll be the opposition that sounds really stupid and annoying so you look way better by comparison and everyone flocks to you.

In fairness, Donald jr. had no god damn idea what the laws were and he saw "ohh, dirt on Hillary, I'll take that" but since he didn't do anything, all this shows is potential intent to manipulate from a single person who may or may not have done it on behalf of the government.

And, of course, there was no incriminating evidence so either
A) That part is a lie and there was something (or they talked about helping)
or
B) This was just an attempt to get face time with the campaign to promote a repeal of a law.  Lobbying, basically.

And I'd say "Wow, you'd have to be an idiot to support someone's proposal when they lie about what they have" but that's basically Trump's entire campaign platform: Promise vague shit but have nothing actually done on it.

Is Donald Trump Jr. a literal moron or something? Apparently the Times informed him they were going to post these E-mails, but still, if he didn't post them, he could at least deny it. He probably just admitted to breaking federal election law.

The Trump supporters also seem to be pivoting from "There was no collusion!" to "If there was collusion, it wasn't illegal!"

Just speculating there, but if he's guilty, it's probably better to fess up at this point than deny it in the face of evidence.

It's called opposition research, and everyone does it. Hillary's team met with the russians peddling the Trump-Stripper-Pee story. How is this any different?

I thought the guy that released that story was British, not Russian? I also thought the story was released to the media and not to the Clinton camp.  I could be wrong about both though.
