Not that those couldn't be faked, but that'd be pointless given how simple it'd be for authorities to figure out whether he was in the US or not.

Twitter is awesome tonight. I think 'tinkle tinkle little czar' is my favorite.

Ah it's all to distract from the confirmation hearings.

There's no point in him posting every page of his passport.
He's a lawyer. Its his lawyerly way of saying "I have 100% proof if we go to court I can prove my alibi".

Yeah, but he was claiming he'd never been to Prague in that tweet with the picture of his passport. Given that Prague is in the Schengen Area, his passport can't prove that.

That information apparently came from John McCain about a month ago. So I'm sure they are looking into it if they haven't fully already.

Sure it can. If its not stamped at all it proves he never left the US.

Sure, but he already admitted that he was in Italy in the summer. Doesn't sound like it would fit in with the timeline in that document though.

I'm gonna have to insist on seeing his long-form passport before I'm prepared to accept his claim.

I think there really would be big money in someone/company creating a trademarked symbol that every verified news story had to get permission to use and it would be like a certification that the news story you're reading is real. Too many dumb Americans falling for fake news stories about Trump, good and bad.

I mean really, do you honestly believe Trump hired a bunch of Russian hookers to piss on a bed Obama once slept in? It literally reads like a ####post off a message board.
Not to mention that the "report" is littered with grammatical errors, spelling mistakes and doesn't follow typical intelligence report standards.
Hell, even the Buzzfeeds editor won't stand behind this, calling it "unverified and unsubstantiated".

Have I commented on the legitimacy of the intelligence report? No. Just using Zero Hedge as a credible site. They have no credibility. None. They have been caught producing bull####. One of their main producers had had enough and blew the lid off the joint, exposing it for what it is. That should have been the end of it. Except gullible people will still swallow anything so long as it comes from the internet and confirms their personal bias. I'm waiting for something credible to come out which confirms or denies the information. So far the most credible is Carl Bernstein, but I'm looking for a second source to verify that information. Zero Hedge is proof of nothing, even if they had the smoking gun.

Not quite.
I've been to many foreign countries that do not stamp my US passport, and the US does not stamp my passport when I return to the US.

When I regularly travelled to the US for work, I'd estimate that about 60% of the time they never bothered to stamp my passport.

Same. I use to fly through Seattle (had to go through US CUSTOMS both ways) when I would fly to the Middle East every month for 3 years. I think I have like 3 US stamps in my passport.

If it isn't Wikileaks helping him, or a school girl watching hentai leaking on his face, Trump isn't down with leaks very much.

Aaaand Trump has Godwinned the Internet.
Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to "leak" into the public. One last shot at me.Are we living in Nazi Germany?

Assuming he survives this, now he has the perfect excuse to clamp down on the media.

Nevermind that he's throwing his own son under the bus with the "I have no deals/loans with Russia". Besides impeachment, the likely heart attack he's going to bring on himself will also likely prevent a four year Presidency.
