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.

Good news, Jesse Ventura says he's seriously considering running for President in 2020.  I think it was the Green Party that he said had reached out to him.  He has zero chance but I'd love to see him do the debates.

I want him to debate wearing this

One only need to look at the 200 or so times Trump spent at a Trump resort during the Presidency to show how he's personally profiting.  What must it cost to have him and his detail/staff there so often.

Not to mention his gold digging wife who spends money like a drunken sailor when see goes aboard

....to say nothing of "Javanka" and that doofus Don Jr.

Trump and his spawn should just stop talking, at least get your story right,  there is nobody in this world that thinks they are smart or ever tell the truth

No connections to Russia!

No collusion! Witch hunt!

Never went through with a deal with the Russians!

Collusion is not a crime! 

How does asylum in Argentina work?

His messaging is totally on point to the base that would belief anything he says.  Collusion is not the legal expression.  Conspiracy is.  Let him declare conspiracy is not a crime and see how far he gets.

If Don Jr's meeting was perfectly legal, why did they lie about it?  Even if that meeting could be considered "bad form" but not criminally liable, the cover-up could be.  The lies will sink them all.  

One day, Trump will hit his limit and fire everyone and pardon everyone and he'll sit back and basically say "I did it.  So what.  Come and get me." and he will dare the DOJ, Congress and the Supreme court to try.

Of course this is happening. 

Oh hey, look no witnesses either- how convenient 

 

 

And if there are any recordings of this meeting, the Russians will be in control of it, just like last time. But there's absolutely no collusion with Russia at all 🙄.

Such a bad liar. Oh well, at least it looks like Mueller is going to air out all of the Trump families **** in public at some point so let's just sit back and watch.

Trumps two best friends.  They are so happy because they have the president of the USA in their back pocket  

 

Incredible. “He should have shown me all the evidence so I knew what I could lie about and what I couldn’t lie about”

this is exactly why his lawyers wouldn’t let him do a sit down. Cause mueller would have him under oath or have an FBI agent do the questioning

 lying to the fbi is a felony and trump have committed an indictable offence right there. Which would have guaranteed his impeachment.

Wow that there is someone special... can't keep from lying with all that kid glove handling 

You couldn't get this script made in Hollywood. No one would watch a movie about a stupid President, surrounded by stupid people, doing stupid, illegal things. Unwatchable. 

Unless Leslie Nielsen was the President and Inspector Clouseau was the investigator.

I read an article about House of Cards where they said the joy in watching it when it debuted was how absurd it was.  And the despair in watching the last couple seasons is how it seemed all to real.

There is "idiocracy". It's not that far from what we have now.

"During the 2016 presidential primaries, writer Etan Cohen and others expressed opinions that the film's predictions were converging on accuracy, which, during the general election, director Mike Judge also said.[40] At the time, Judge also compared Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump—who later won and became President of the United States—to the movie's dim-witted wrestler-turned-president, Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho"

President Camacho is in no way comparable to Trump, Camacho put the smartest guy in the world in charge of fixing things, Trump only hires people dumber than himself.

Laughing at Trump.  

An interesting breakdown of what is going on down south:

The noose is tightening': 5 takeaways from Michael Cohen's plea deal — and what it means for Trump

 https://www.cbc.ca/news/thenational/michael-cohen-plea-deal-trump-takeaways-1.4926513

I love that Mueller is so meticulous, weaving everything together. Trumpers continue to cry foul but even neutrals must see how the everything is unraveling. 

 

Mueller is probably laughing at how easy this is for him. Trump can't keep his fool mouth shut about anything. 

So Cohen is now cooperating with the NY AG about the Trump foundation, the new year fireworks are going to be the best ever
