US Politics

Lets see if we can keep this thread a little more civil.

I found this interview very interesting.  A lot of soft balls thrown at Trump, he explained his back pedalling on his more extreme issues as a lot of his claims as opening bids for negotiation purposes.  Which .. whatever .. I still think that those are insincere claims he used to get elected.

He does now come across way more presidential then he did prior to the election.  A lot of his noise, yelling, and rhetoric has been scaled back.

Do respect this one though:

Quote

 

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

unbelievable.  How could a president of the US be so stupid?  sharing such a sensitive bit of information with an essential enemy?   How did he honestly think this was a wise thing?   Not to be overlooked is how he was basically bragging about firing Comey and how it took the heat off himself.   Just unreal.  He never ceases to amaze me in how completely idiotic his decision making has been.

One thing I've learned over the last year.

There is Nothing Trump does,  or says, no matter how spectaculary stupid, that he can't come up with something stupider, almost immediately.

He makes George Bush jr look smart.

he's attained the  infinity of dumb.

He doesn’t even Pretend he’s not trading on fear and racism. He’s inciting it openly.  I’m sure the people of Egypt are reassured now and appreciate the Presidents kind words. 

As if people in Egypt are preoccupied with Trump's  WALL and the BAN, right now........

What an atrocity of a President. 

The video is so embarrassing 

 

 

This full assault on media is pretty transparent. He’s desperate to create doubt in the face of federal investigations.

hes pretty persistent in trying to strike down any media outlet that refuses to showcase him in only a positive light..  its sad really.

Watching Sanders squirm is always great but the disdain in her voice in answering reasonable questions from the media is getting gross.  Sure, she's doing her job but have some personal pride.  How she can look herself in the mirror is beyond me.

The thing is.....to perform as this White House Spokesperson, to relay the adminstration's message and stance on everything, accurately ................by definition, she has to be a serial liar.

Can hardly wait for her memoir to come out after all of this nonsense is over with.   

Flynn accepts a sweetheart plea deal in exchange for...?  Well he knows where many of the bodies are buried. I guess we know why trump went nuts this week...

 

And the alternate reality version:

But even fox has a little something worth considering:
