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:

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.

T.Y.T.

A review of Federal court records for the month of July by ABC News shows 18 people have been federally charged for crimes related to the demonstrations in Portland.

Of those cases, 13 were charged as misdemeanours. 5 of the cases involved the alleged use of laser pointers against federal agents or officers.

Hey it's not a threat but you get the picture, I wont actually use the gun case I'm a chicken shiate but people know I'm a bad ass now

Solid video about what has happened in Portland

 

 

 

What a bunch of crap. Strong focus. Ha! He’s going flogging as usual.

Much else? That’s what we’re worried about.

It blew hard on the blowhard’s beautiful wall?

Not surprising. 
And I just watched a video, after Trump said 20 world class mountain climbers couldn’t scale the wall, of climbers, who accepted that challenge and easily climbed a Trump wall replication, in under 20 seconds. 20 seconds.

Then I watched an 8 year old girl do it. 

Oh wall, what’s a few billion dollars spent on this massive failure..

you can be absolutely certain that every last dollar that they appropriated for that border wall wound up in the construction.  no grift there.

In this sentence, we see but one reason Trump is a failed president:

“...senior advisers began presenting Trump with maps and data showing spikes in coronavirus cases among ‘our people’ in Republican states.”

He never viewed himself as representing all of the American people. - Adam Schiff 

This is totally going to happen:

Wouldn't surprise me if Trump himself exclaimed that he, himself created the vaccine and only people that vote for him will get it.

I think he will just keep escalating the 'crisis' in democratic cities...  he doesn't need any policy or success or anything to win - they just need to suppress the relatively small proportion of the population to rig the vote

I wouldn't be surprised at all if he now uses covid-precautions as an excuse to make voting nearly impossible for blacks and latinos.

 

Pretty much on brand...

 

 

Trump just read a prepared statement (with the usual misinformation).....then was asked by a reporter simply about current poll numbers...

Trump: 

He has polls showing him winning in all swing states....there is tremendous enthusiasm among his supporters, the reported polls are all fake....in 2006 nobody though he would win, but people were tremulously enthusiastic back then and even more so now.....there will be a vaccine soon, no administration has done what his has, in combating the virus......in fact no one has accomplished as much during his term as he.......the economy was the best ever seen until the Chinese virus forced him to close it down......the US was having the greatest year in their history, while the Chinese were having the worst economic year in theirs.....

This "answer" went on for around 5-6 minutes.   Trump then thanking every one for attending and left the room.

So informative, these updates....

Fixed it with sourcing.

Lewis didn't attend his inauguration, pay back time
