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:

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.

Trump is abysmally stupid- dumber than anyone thought. And  the deterioration in his statements and actions in the past few days are an indicator of worsening mental stability. He is almost certain to do or say something really, really stupid soon, but that will be difficult to notice apart from all his other idiocies of late..

There’s a bit of a Republicans for Biden movement. They say country over party. Hopefully it gains traction.  Influential Republicans can make a difference.

As Republicans see that Trump has no chance in Hell of winning and that impacts their own chances of re-relection, we will probably see more and more rats deserting the sinking ship. I don't think that Trump's overt racism, stupidity, corrcuption and fascism bothers them- its all about their self-interest in hanging onto their jobs and power.
 

Yeah. Saw this on Face the Nation. It’s indicative that whenever a reporter brings up “gassing the protesters” they’re corrected with “that wasn’t tear gas”. 
And again on Face the Nation, Barr at least twice corrects the interviewer and says pepper spray is not a chemical irritant. The interviewer looks like she’s biting her tongue to that as Barr smirks his way thru an uncomfortable period of re-tuning the truth.

Any predictions in what, if anything, happens to this man once Biden has officially won the election?

I know what I’m hoping for.

Yes, but he needs to made and example of, he has made a mockery of the AG position and the DOJ

I’d have to strongly suspect he’d be investigated. If the Dems win senate control then you may see senate hearings on the trump admin and Barr would get caught up in that.  But he may skirt actual criminal wrongdoing.  He’ll certainly be remembered as an enabler of a wannabe fascist regime and the architect of chemical attacks on his own people.

Holy hell.

That is bad. Real bad.

This ad was paid for “the re-elect Donald Trump no matter how bad he is committee.”

So there going to run on “it can’t get any worse. Stick with us” 

Pepper spray is not a chemical irritant...? Well, it's official: Barr is a ******* idiot.

And Barr is not even a lawyer- he has an honourary law degree only.

The scary thing is that Barr is not low IQ (as far as I know, but its an open question)- he is actually and knowingly doing harm, but doesn't care. That's sociopathic behaviour and puts him in the same group as Charles Manson and Idi Amin.

It’s as though, when asked valid questions, he, and his fellow cronies, can’t bring themselves to not lie. 

How I wish they all had Pinocchio-ism.

Former Harvard psychiatrist Lance Dodes: Trump is trying to "turn America into a police state"
Dr. Lance Dodes: As Trump sinks into "paranoid rage," he will likely seek to cancel or overturn 2020 election


The protests sparked by the police murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis on Memorial Day continue. This people's uprising against police brutality and social injustice have spread far beyond Minnesota Minneapolis to all 50 states and around the world.

Donald Trump is a destroyer, not a healer. Given his tendencies toward authoritarianism, even fascism, Trump is only capable of sowing more division in a nation convulsing in pain and anger over the murder of George Floyd, the resulting explosion of police violence and what that reveals about our extreme levels of social inequality and broader culture of cruelty.

And add the 3 plus years of all the other shite he and his administration have caused prior to the George Floyd murder to the vented up emotional disdain people across the world have for this deranged human being and the equally deranged GOP. The anger, frustration and anxiety is bursting at the seams. The sane part of the world is in desperate need to breathe. In my lifetime I’ve never seen anything at this level and we’ve seen a lot pre Donald Trump as president of the United States.

Vote the lot out. Come November we will all breathe together and watch with enthusiasm what happens to the list of people who need to be held accountable.

Well, that’s perfect. Trump has provided a canvas for all the people he hates to post everything he’s afraid of and despises.
