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.

May we burn them?

"Fishing expedition" will be the new "witch hunt".  I look forward to the trump supports coming in here to claim they hate trump and then slipping up with their constant defense of him.  Its not like any of us are on the jury.  If you love the guy, admit it.  Stand and be judged.  lol

What I found about Trump this week apart from being a liar, fat, and stupid, he is about the laziest politician on the planet, who needs pictures during his briefings.

Donald Trump is a 5 year old. There is no other explanation.

I think most Trump supporters on this site are trolls- you just have to look at the more divisive threads and the same posters pop up, ****-post and ignore any information or facts. 

It is a free country(s).  People have the right to publicly support ignorance, dishonestly, mendacity and narcissism, as much as they wish..........

BTW.......don't simply assume I was talking in my above post about Donald Trump.   After all, I said nothing about grifters, con men, carny barkers, and an orange hued pestilence....... 

gone fishing again

And yet this is the party that knifed your boy Bernie in the back, and you say that they don't support dishonesty and mendacity? What was that you were saying about ****-posting and ignoring facts?

Are you a closet Republican?

It's not the closet that counts.  It's what's in it.

Only an alt right would pretend to be upset about Bernie Sanders not being the Dem candidate for president.

Easier said than done when the trolls in this sub-forum (not just this thread) twist what others post and have no valid counterpoints whatsoever. It's akin to basically feasting on garbage, which they seem to do gleefully.

Unless Harper's still hiding in there.

A fantastic read.  "By one estimate, more than $1 trillion now exits the world’s developing countries each year in the forms of laundered money and evaded taxes."

"In 2017, Reuters examined the sale of Trump Organization properties in Florida. It found that 77 of 2,044 units in the developments were owned by Russians. But that was likely an incomplete portrait. More than one-third of the units had been sold to corporate vehicles, which can readily hide the identity of the true owner."

"Angulo learned to drive backhoes and bulldozers, carving water hazards and tee boxes out of former horse pastures in Bedminster, N.J., where a famous New Yorker was building a world-class course. Angulo earned $8 an hour, a fraction of what a state-licensed heavy equipment operator would make, with no benefits or overtime pay." 

"Around that time, a licensed heavy equipment operator in central New Jersey would have received an average of $51 to $55 per hour in wages and benefits, according to union officials at the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 825 in the nearby town of Springfield."

“Many of us helped him get what he has today,” Angulo said. “This golf course was built by illegals.”

"The Washington Post spoke with 16 men and women from Costa Rica and other Latin American countries, including six in Santa Teresa de Cajon, who said they were employed at the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster. All of them said they worked for Trump without legal status — and that their managers knew."

Sweaty chrome dome is way over his head and was installed as acting AG to find out what Mueller has on Trump and those associated with Trump and report back to Trump. He has done this and now will be replaced by Barr who will not release the Mueller report. Time for the leaking machine to be started up.

I loved the part where he wouldn't answer if he talked to a third party about the Mueller probe

He was a mess wasn't he, like Hakeem Jefferies asked "how the heck did you become head of the DOJ"
