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.

less ******. south Korea, Guam, Japan, any thing with in reach of KJU's conventional arms will be ******- most other people will be fine. I don't see Canada being greatly affected by that. Just to clarify- most will be beside themseves with grief, anger, disbelief and so on- just not bombed the **** up.

The world would be plunged into an economic depression as the economy of South Korea would be destroyed. There would be untold millions of refugees. There would be radioactive fallout worldwide. Perhaps an atomic missile dropped on North Korea would escalate into a World war. Whose to say N. Korea doesn't launch a nuclear missile that impacts the Continental US? Canada would be greatly affected. We don't want to go there. 

White House to the publisher of the Trump book .............don't sell the book next week or we will sue,  publisher fine we will start selling the book tomorrow.

According to the NY Times, tonight............Trump ordered  White House lawyer Don McGahn .....to stop Sessions from recusing himself from the Russian investigation.   McGahn got himself off the hook, by lying to Trump, that Muller could only be fired by the Pres. for shown cause.

Smells like a wee bit of obstruction...

Trump has made a career out of threatening to sue people, and then not following through...........

It would be great if he'd actually sue someone.  The discovery would be tremendous.  Which is why he never does.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders,  addressing the media, yesterday:

“The president believes in making sure that information is accurate, before pushing it out as fact, when it certainly and clearly is not.”

So after Trump tweets this out and threatens to sue, they decide to release the book early and it pretty much sells out in hours.

 

Thanks for the free publicity.

I was surprised to see Trump claim he did not authorize access.  I know he's trying to paint the picture that the author made it all up.  But it also could be seen as Trump didnt want him around but he was around anyway.

I intend to buy the book as an iBook tonight (which would be my first e-book as I prefer physical copies but given the sold out nature...)

Saw someone on twitter post a screenshot of an Amazon gift order of the book to be delivered to Trump at Mar A lago.  hahaha.  If someone started a movement for all buyers to buy a second copy and gift deliver to Trump that would be outstanding.

I saw that too.

Doubly funny/ironic because of Trump's obsession with Amazon and Bezos.

 

There is now a federal investigation into the Clinton Foundation looking into whether donations were solicited in exchange for access to then-Sec. of State Hilary.  I sort of cringe at it because you know Trump and his minions will scream this from the roof tops.  If there was criminality, then great, find it, prove it and punish.  But this sort of seems far too convenient to Trump repeatedly demanding the DOJ investigate the Clintons.

Let's take one example of Trump - he spends most of his time the private club he owns where the membership fee was raised once he became President and where those fees allow members to interact with Trump.  That money is money in Trump's pocket.  How is that appropriate?

So... let's hope that the Clinton pay to play scheme sets precedence for the Maralargo side hustle. Then I would be a happy man...

Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the United States

 

Now that Russian collusion, after one year of intense study, has proven to be a total hoax on the American public, the Democrats and their lapdogs, the Fake News Mainstream Media, are taking out the old Ronald Reagan playbook and screaming mental stability and intelligence.....

....Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star.....

....to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius....and a very stable genius at that!

Welcome...... to the twilight zone.

Trump winning is an indication of a corrupt, rigged,  electoral system, and an electorate that is ignored, disgusted, disinterested, and often stupid.

 

Hes starting to crack. Hes not gonna last until summer

Word is there were three more sealed indictments in December,  

James Comey handed Trump the election...

Miller looked nuts in this interview. Clearly his agenda was to try to impress trump. 

 

How embarrassing 

 

Stupid people of America have their shining light.

he's living proof that being an absolute dolt, is not a barrier to every kind of success in America.

I watched this, comedy early Sunday morning is not bad especially when there is nothing else on.
