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.

" If anyone has the tiniest shred of doubt that Trump has committed crimes while in office, I, rising Republican star, Ken Buck,  staunch Trump backer and ally, will remove them!!!"

Can't make up stuff this stupid.

Sad/scary/funny thing... this is actually believable.

I watched msnbc, CNN, global, cbc and fox for commentary and breaking news about the Mueler hearing... 4 had a grip on reality... 1 was waaaaaay off base and delving into alternate reality cuckoo narrative land.... I will let you, the reader, guess which one is not based in reality.

 

So ****** up... the propaganda network....

White House officials on Thursday were baffled as to why a doctored presidential seal — including an eagle clutching golf clubs in its talons instead of arrows — was projected on stage at an event at which U.S. President Donald Trump spoke.

The seal was displayed on Wednesday at Turning Point USA's student summit, where Trump gave a raucous 80-minute speech and was greeted warmly by the youthful audience.

The image included a two-headed eagle, instead of just one head, which closely resembles the bird on the Russian coat of arms. The eagle is holding golf clubs in its left talons, instead of the traditional seal's clutch of arrows, and cash in its right talons, instead of an olive branch.

The actual seal says "E Pluribus Unum," which means "from many one" in Latin, on the banner above the bird's head. The altered seal said, "45 es un titere," which in Spanish means "45 is a puppet." Trump is the 45th president of the United States.

In addition, the shield on the bird's chest has hammer-and-sickle symbols on it.

WH incompetence in full view once again, Democrats need to keep this in their back pocket, if Trump can profit from straws maybe they can make shirts they would sell like hot cakes.

Put this image in the front of a t shirt

Wow... out as press secretary and still lying.

 

 

Good Lord- this should never happen.

With the current Democrat leadership? Highly unlikely. They're hoping the Wizard of Oz will grant them some courage. 

House finds Barr and Ross in contempt, DOJ will not prosecute them,  I think the leaders of the Democrats feel that even if they have an impeachment inquiry and eventually impeach the Emperor it would never get thru the Senate and Trump would use that to his advantage politically, he has insulated himself very well with the leaders of the GOP and AG Barr

It's complete abdication of their duty to not proceed with an impeachment. What possible defence could they possibly have? How does it "win" voters over for the Dems to allow their country to be led by the criminal?

Agreed- people blast the republicans for being cowards and caving into their political base and always calculating what is the best political step to take, not what is best for their country... the democratic party is guilty of the same and should be admonished for that as well.

Impeach. And hope more ppl dont believe the lies. There is nothing to lose. Clinton got impeached for getting a BJ ffs.
