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.

What do you think stops criminal and evil?  Hugs and Kisses from princess Justine?

There were 346 mass shootings in the US in 2017. There were 15,594 gun deaths that year.

The US must be overrun with criminals and evil compared to every other country in the developed world.

Mulller just filed MORE charges against Manifort. 

In the 37-page indictment issued in Virginia, prosecutors describe a "scheme" in which the two longtime business partners allegedly laundered $30 million, failed to pay taxes for almost 10 years and used real estate they owned to fraudulently secure more than $20 million in loans.  

Some of the charges Gates pleaded guilty to, have now been added to the previous indictment.

 

I wonder why they always announce charges on Friday?

I (Trump) was at Mar-a-Lago and we had this incredible ball, the Red Cross Ball, in Palm Beach, Florida. And we had the Marines. And the Marines were there, and it was terrible because all these rich people, they’re there to support the Marines, but they’re really there to get their picture in the Palm Beach Post… so you have all these really rich people, and a man, about 80 years old—very wealthy man, a lot of people didn’t like him—he fell off the stage. 

Trump explained that this was a $100K-per-table fundraiser at his Mar-a-Lago estate and the Marines, he admitted, were given "the worst table in the whole place" at the very back of the room in the corner. 

When the old man fell in front of Trump, there were two completely different responses---one from the Marines, and one from Trump: 

The Marines ran up front, picked up the man, covered in blood, and formed a human stretcher to carry him out.  

Then there was Donald Trump: 

Quote

And you know what I did? I said, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ and I turned away,” said Trump. “I couldn’t, you know, he was right in front of me and I turned away. I didn’t want to touch him… he’s bleeding all over the place.
I felt terrible, you know, beautiful marble floor, didn’t look like it. It changed color. Became very red....His wife is screaming—she’s sitting right next to him, and she’s screaming.
I was saying “Get that blood cleaned up! It’s disgusting!”

Gotta read this. I'm pretty pro-gun-control but man, implementing a semiautomatic weapon ban in a nation where millions or tens of millions of such weapons exist ... that is a tricky one, and the implementation will really matter.

Other nations have done it. You do a buy back and amnesty program. That will get a ton of the weapons as the majority of people want to be law compliant. 

If it’s illegal to own it’s easy to get the rest. People will stooge off.  Normal investigations etc.  

Of course

 

Lol

 

Ya Trump would run towards the school and pull this after he fake trips

Trump actually suggested movies were the blame for violence among youth and suggested....get this, a ratings system. Huh? 

This guy doesn’t know movies have ratings?  Yowza
