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.

What is with these Trump Press Secretaries?

Spicer
The Mooch
Sarah Sanders (who "wanted to be known as an honest person")

And now this windup kepi doll, Kayleigh McEnany, who's tenure as WH Press Secretary started with the statement "I will never tell you a lie"....and has been all mighty uphill, since.

After the Trumpet declaring that houses of worship were "essential" and urging governors to allow them to reopen.  (Dems against Christ, or something) he walked off, without taking questions.  She dismissed as "hypothetical'" reporters questioning what power Trump had to compel churches to reopen

McEnany then called on Trump's favourite press galley stalking horse - Chanel Rion of One America News (OAN), who asked if Trump had considered pardoning former President Obama for the unfounded allegation that he wiretapped Trump Tower and other unspecified crimes.   Then she whips out a series of prepared slides that included questions she wished the media had posed about the Flynn case, including why Flynn's identity was leaked to the press and why Flynn was "unmasked.

Another press conference, that felt like watching Kabuki, in the English language.  Pravda has nothing on these folks.....

Biden has the charisma and zest of a Vegemite sandwich.   Harris may be a good pick, to add some youth and pop to the ticket and drive Trump even crazier.

Read an interesting article in CNN last week about Biden’s potential VP candidates, an interesting angle on why Warren may not be considered because of the Senate majority being in play. I suspect Harris has more national name recognition than Klobuchar, but since this VP is the de facto President in waiting In 4 years for the Dems, they need to be much more than a window dressing pick.

Two of the three appeals judges are trump nuts.  You can see what’s happening here.  Judge Sullivan (Flynn’s judge) won’t be happy.

And ironically they hide behind Judicial independence to wreak havoc on the very meaning of impartiality. There are so many people that need to be held accountable for their actions once this nightmare is over. Just another bad president, yea right.

Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos admitted that she was trying to use the ongoing coronavirus crisis to push through her private school choice agenda during a Tuesday radio interview. DeVos made the comments during an interview with Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the archbishop of New York, on his Sirius XM show. The interview was first flagged by the nonprofit education news outlet Chalkbeat.

They are so confident that people don't care enough to switch sides and that there are no checks on powers they aren't even pretending to not be corrupt. 

That is the state of American today.

Twitter needs to do something about it. But their values.....

Trump has tweeted so many lies and made so many inflammatory comments not mention the childish name calling that he should of been booted off tweeter years ago 

Edited May 23, 20205 yr by bustamente

She is just a stupid as those that have come before her unless this is a fake cheque, also didn't Trump say that he would not take a salary as President

 

Good for Biden but he needs to watch what he says, still waiting for Trump to apologize for telling the 4 congresswomen to go back to their own countries

The good thing is the gop have a guy that can’t stand up to any debate, be it pandemic response, race relations, or anything else.
