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:

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.

Vladimir Putin Suggests Jews Were Behind Election Interference

.....a headline in today's Breitbart.     I go there often, just to take a break from "fake news"

I didn't know that Putin is Jewish.

Learned something today.

 

Hell, I thought there was no election interference.....so I learned something as well.

:rolleyes:

She should wait til trump denies the affair under oath. It would be hilarious to see the GOP reaction to trump being impeached for the same thing as Clinton.

Breitbart.     I go there

Just went there.

Quickly became stupider, just by reading a few things.

Won't try that again.

Yup, my social experiment of briefly posting there, still gives me the willies..

In that vein, you would love Infowars and The Daily Caller, as well.

 

Those Breiitbarters must have been cheering this:

 

They do wear it.

If nothing happened let here talk, plus she'll make huge coin if she is aloud to talk and has pictures or videos.

The "populist" (racist) movement is much older than Bannon is saying if he said 10 or fifteen years old.

He's nauseating.

I read that the  National Front  are trying to spiff up their image. 

Great start people.    :D

It seems like something trump would brag about and probably does privately. The issues for him are that it means he’s a liar about conduct with women and that reignited the 19 sexual assault/harassment allegations against him.  

Plus campaign finance issues. And he can’t afford to give Mueller even the smallest legal issue to pounce on. 

It would be something if paying off stormy sinks him in the end.

Kinda damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario.

at this point I don't think anything can sink Trump.  He seems completely untouchable.

What makes you think that?  He barely won the Presidency and has been bombarded on an almost-daily basis with controversy and scandal.  He has a special counsel investigation currently going on.  I'd say his presidency has been an historic disaster, mostly of his own making. 

He's already up to his neck in water.  The only thing keeping his head from sinking is his constitutionally protected position.  His two greatest threats are the next election and Mueller.  But Trump is hardly untouchable.  He's been touched by scandal and humiliation more than most Presidents (perhaps all but Im not a historian lol).

and yet he's still standing.  And he probably will win the next election.  Even SNL admitted this last Saturday.  I'm not defending him, I'm just saying that he doesn't seem to be touched by anything, he just keeps right on going.  No one seems to even care about this Stormy Daniels thing, other than people who want him gone anyway.  He didn't really barely win the election either.  I know Crooked Hillary got more votes, but that's like saying you win a hockey game if you get more shots.  The shots that count are the ones that go in, and those are electoral college votes.  By that metric Trump won by a pretty large margin.

Well, I think STILL being President a year+ after the election isnt really an accomplishment.  Is that the measure of someone's success? lol  It's true he's surpassed James Garfield and William Harrison but they both died.  But I guess its something!

Possible Trump scheme 

1. make an attempt to get something with N Korean. (not possible, which is part of the plan)

2. Attack N. Korea, saying he tried everything, and attacking N Korea has to be done, cause of nuclear threat.

3. Other than destruction of Korean peninsula........ aftermath.... who knows.  maybe martial law.

When does the man behind the Jets play in overtime get hired at the White House?

He dared to criticize the Russians, on a regular basis.  Not a Trump Team player.
