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.

Yup, Trump is not Putin.  

Donald can only fantasize about what he would really want to do.

Somehow appropriate that you are quoting Khrushchev, hopefully Trump has figured out how to properly handle that suitcase.

Trump pays for sex. 

Trump has small hands

shocker, very surprising to me! shows just how far inside truth media, the pinkos have wormed themselves!

Fox News has a credibility problem. Most critics of the cable news network will be well aware of that, but in this case the admission is coming from Fox News itself.

An internal research briefing obtained by the Daily Beast names four regular contributors to the network for peddling “disinformation”, particularly when it comes to the Ukraine scandal that led to Donald Trump’s impeachment.

Among those named in the lengthy document titled Ukraine, Disinformation, & the Trump Administration, put together by Fox News senior political affairs specialist Bryan S Murphy, are frequent guests Rudy Giuliani, John Solomon, Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova.

Solomon, a disgraced former writer for the Hill and a regular guest of Sean Hannity’s, comes under particular scrutiny. “John Solomon played an indispensable role in the collection and domestic publication of elements of this disinformation campaign,” the document explains.

 

Probably a fake internal report, obtained from the long sought Ukrainian server, and planted by hard left commies like.... Hillary Clinton, and so on.

I wouldn't be surprised if Bernie "Karl Marx" Sanders is involved!

Had read Solomon for a couple of years on Real Clear Politics.   Pretty obvious really - always a total front man for pushing disinformation and conspiracy theories.   Of course, Rush just got the Medal of Freedom, for "inspiring millions of people" 

Looking at the stuff that people continue to parrot on Breitbart, Daily Caller, InforWars, et al, shows how well these people have done their work.   With the Presidential seal of approval no less

Trump lied, said Bernie got married in Russia. This is supposed to be a terrible thing to do, although, owning a hotel there, is not.

Trump fans love them some Putin, at the same time, they can think that if Bernie got married in Russia, that makes him a pinko commie bastard.

Forty million of these cretins. forty million and one, if you count the one that posts here.

 Bernie, asked to respond, says Trump is a pathological liar. This is what is needed.

LolTrump 

Bloomberg’s ad campaign seems to be working well. 

Anyone with half a brain knows that Trump is a joke and always has been. Trouble is most Republican voters are either ultra wealthy and are getting just what they want from him or people with less than half a brain. 

 

I'm sure everyone is sick of the criminal President, and knows about this anyway, but

All four U.S. government prosecutors who backed a long prison stay for Trump ally Roger Stone resigned from the case, a stunning rebuke to the Justice Department after it cut his recommended sentence by more than half.

 

 

In court filings to the judge who will sentence Stone, the four prosecutors announced their withdrawal from the team that won a conviction of Stone for lying to Congress, obstruction of justice and witness tampering. Aaron Zelinsky, Adam Jed and Michael Marando quit the case, and Jonathan Kravis left his job as an assistant U.S. attorney.

 

 

This is what you get, when a mafia thug is President.

Not only will the Democrats have to win a rigged election, they will have to find a way to get Trump out of the WH when he loses and decides he wont leave, he has all the people in place to help him remain in power.

He's going to burn down Washington on his way out. 

Now in the USA, an Judge sitting on a criminal case, has to be concerned that if he rules in a way that Trump doesn't like, he will suffer for it.

Descent to banana state status is now complete.

meanwhile, in Oregon...

(TLDR: African-American dude complains to his boss that his coworkers are calling him Buckwheat and teasing him with confederate flags and whatnot.  Boss gets freaked out about a lawsuit so OF COURSE he enlists his fishing buddy, the police chief of a nearby small town, to send goons to shake down the complainant and file theft charges against him for leverage.  Alas, dude could not be scared off, the theft charges were dismissed and hisresulting lawsuits were settled for over a million bucks, about half from the boss' business, about half from the little town that supplied the police goons. Like many things in 2020 USA, this looks like the plot of a ******* Coen Brothers movie, or perhaps an episode of the A-Team. would love to see B.A. Baracus and Mad Murdoch inflict some wacky hurt on that bunch of crackers)

This roger stone stuff is incredible. Wow.  
 

I remember when W was president there were all these crazy conspiracy theories of him wanting to suspend elections and take Over etc. And we could laugh and say come on don’t be nuts. 
 

we are officially on the slippery slope to nuts becoming reality.  And these criminals will have to do anything they can to stay on power because if they are ousted they are going to go down. Hard.  

Biden, Yang, Warren are toast. Down to Che Sanders, Oligarch Bloomberg, charmless Kobluchar.

Spectacular fall for Warren. Media darling right up to the pre Iowa attack on Sanders then fell apart at the seams. 

Only one person can win and as I said earlier, Bernie does the anti corporate thing a lot better. 

I think Warren is probably the best candidate from an objective point of view, but can't deny that Bernie is good at sticking to the message and it resonates with voters. He's the best choice because a debate between he and Trump will be a lot of fun to watch.

Bernie rated higher against Trump then Hillary 4 years ago.

I think it will be Mayor Pete simply because Bernie is not a officially a Democrat.
