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.

Yes, but with that being said, the clip is short and we didn't see what happened after. Perhaps they were flagging more police?

They will have a lot of company.

The Capitol Police force has 2000 plus members 500 were working yesterday you would think that when the Mayor was refused National guard troops the night before it would of been all hands on deck, have a perimeter around the Capitol of cops talking to the protesters and right behind then another perimeter of cops in riot gear just in case the protesters get any funny ideas, what they got was a small force who kept backing up and finally turned tail and ran back towards the Capitol, that's when the protesters became terrorists and they knew they had the green light. 

now there is a photo of an armed  terrorist inside with zipties of the type  that are used to handcuff prisoners.

would post it but dont know how, its at getty images. further shocking, this was not a half assed effort.

Trump lawyer suddenly repudiates the president — says he was used to 'perpetrate a crime'

   
In Philadelphia, one of the cities where President Donald Trump's legal team has been making baseless and debunked claims of widespread voter fraud, Trump campaign attorney Jerome Marcus has asked to withdraw from one of the campaign's Pennsylvania-related election lawsuits.

Marcus made that request following the violence that occurred on Wednesday in Washington, D.C., where a violent mob of far-right Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol Building hoping to prevent the counting of President-elect Joe Biden's Electoral College win. Although a joint session of Congress was delayed and members of the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives feared for their safety, it resumed on Wednesday evening — and the Electoral College results were affirmed by Congress. Biden's inauguration is set for January 20.

On Thursday in Philadelphia, Marcus told U.S. District Judge Paul Diamond his client "used the lawyer's services to perpetrate a crime and the client insists on taking action that the lawyer considers repugnant and with which the lawyer has a fundamental disagreement."

Larson quotes Marcus as saying, "I believe that the filing of that and other cases was used by President Trump yesterday to incite people to violence. I refer specifically to his urging people to come to Washington for a 'wild' protest."

I saw that picture last night, there was talk that some of the terrorists wanted to take hostages 

Seems like the friendly sort. An M & M sort.

This is good news!

 

Why is it that politicians always seem to be more often held accountable by the forces of capitalism than their constituents?

She recited the Trumpian gospel, took no questions and sprinted off stage as soon as she was done.

Why even bother, she will forever be known as a liar who spread lies and has no soul, much like her employer who like her will be out on their asses hopefully sooner than later
