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.

makes sense to me. The thought process is fire him now and deal with the consequences when you control Congress or risk losing the House in the fall and having less control. 

Or having even less control of Mueller returned indictments against Kushner and/or recommended impeachment against Trump himself. 

Watching Trump's legal beagles with the Stormy and Bunny business.....these guys actually remind me of Mafia retainers.

There will always be openings with the Trump legal team.   Simply check in your dignity, integrity, self respect, and ethics at the door.

My guess, and it's only a guess, some of them didn't have any to start with to check in.

For some of these people, they can't blame Trump in who they are.

Dung attracts flies.....

So the NRA nut jobs who were going on about the good guy with a gun talk after the Maryland school shooting probably weren’t expecting this:

 

Wasn’t he just saying he wasn’t firing mcmaster? Lol

 

This was barely a week ago. His denials on McMaster were around the same time too. The media reports these things, are called liars and fake news and then proven correct. 

 

Perhaps his plan is Armageddon 

 

why does he need money when Mexico is paying for the wall?  Also if he’s the greatest deal maker of all time why is he wasting tax payers money on Dem giveaways to get their concession when he controls all level of government? Must be a lousy deal maker. 

In Trump's first year, counting this budget......around 3 Trillion bucks added to debt.   Now he is starting a trade war with China, who holds the bulk of the paper on existing US debt.

 

With this Karen McDougal interview airing tonight, his aids are probably desperately trying to hide his cell phone. 

meanwhile in Winnipeg Patrik Laine is playing on a bruised bone

Watching News today, then checked into fox "news" and I swear- they are in a different reality than everyone one else...

Everyone is covering the March for our lives... not one mention of it on fox... If it doesn't fit our narrative... it doesn't exist.

At least Breitbart, Daily Caller, Infowars, et al. are covering it.    Too bad all those hundred of thousands of kids,  are funded, organized, and brainwashed by leftist fanatics.....

Update:   

The winning headline comes from good ole Alex Jones and Infowars...and is as follows:

‘Hitler Youth’ Student Gun Control March Invades Washington:
Follows in footsteps of Nazis who disarmed Jews before the Holocaust

:rolleyes:

They own about 7% (2016 figure) of US debt.

Stand corrected, thanks...... China and Japan are both in for a Trillion, for a total of 15% of the debt.    Gotta check more than one webpage (sigh)

That isn’t even trying hard.

and the coward trump leaves town the day before the marches. 

I really hope these kids can make a different. I hope some gun nuts and nra puppets get voted out. I really do. 

Strange, when a porn star is more upfront about screwing people.......than the President of the United States.

US .....EPA head Pruitt radio interview 2005 .... Does not accept basic science.

Quote

 

Pruitt, who at the time was a state senator, also described the Second Amendment as divinely granted  :lol: and condemned federal judges as a “judicial monarchy” that is “the most grievous threat that we have today." 

“There aren’t sufficient scientific facts to establish the theory of evolution, and it deals with the origins of man, which is more from a philosophical standpoint than a scientific standpoint,” he said in one part of the series, in which Pruitt and the program's hosts discussed issues related to the Constitution.

I'm  a Canadian, and I know more than this guy about his own system of government.  And I don't know much about it.

How pathetic is that?

It’s a good example of why the separation of church and state is so important.  

shockingly the US is also expelling diplomats.  I guess that stormy interview really bugged trump and he felt the need to look legitimate today. 

Various countries announced they were making the same move in solidarity on Monday. These are:

  • US: 60 diplomats
  • EU countries: France (4); Germany (4); Poland (4); Czech Republic (3); Lithuania (3); Denmark (2); Netherlands (2); Italy (2); Estonia (1); Croatia (1); Finland (1); Latvia (1); Romania (1); Sweden (1)
  • Ukraine: 13
  • Canada: 4

I guess had Putin had 60 diplomats in the US he wanted to bring back
