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.

Almost 30 years and not much has changed.

Are the same that burn crosses"

 

 

 

Now you know why the rioters were treated so gently. Cops generally tend to be small-c conservative anyways and much more so in the US where usually half of police forces are ex-military, some with significant war trauma.

If true and I have heard stories about this then the enemy is within, if I am a cop and or military member I would be **** scared of being outed right now.

Any one caught doing stuff like that should get 20

So do you think this anything will happen to this guy on the right?, how did he get a flack jacket with police written on it and how about the shield, also does he live off the land with all those pelts he is wearing, anyways back to the original question do you think anything will happen to this guy? how about if I tell you that his dad is a Brooklyn Superior Court Justice

Let's hope there is actual political fallout for his deplorable actions.

Republican senators now regret not doing more to contain Trump
https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/533280-republican-senators-now-regret-not-doing-more-to-contain-trump

So, after enabling, kowtowing to, and playing galley slaves to an amoral, mendacious and crazed narcissist for 4 years......they actually have some regrets?   Worried about long term damage to the party?
Shut up, please shut up, just shut up....

Or to put it another way.....shut the hell up.

 

 

it is amazing how little they got done under  mcconnell the senate has been reduced to not much more role  than the canadian senate. 

complete waste of the years he has been in charge.

he is mediocre at best.

Mich had one solitary objective - cram as many right wing judges into the Legislative Branch.   As far as actual legislation in the Senate, or any initiatives to help anybody else.......forget it.

Dominion Voting Systems has filed a defamation lawsuit against Sidney Powell for claiming without evidence that the voting machine company rigged the 2020 presidential election.  Appears that they are suing her for 1.3 Billion.

Dominion has also sent warnings of potential litigation to the White House, Fox News, Newsmax, One America News and a number of Trump-allied individuals, including his lawyer Rudy Giuliani, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News personalities Sean Hannity and Maria Bartiromo, conservative attorney Lin Wood and Melissa Carone, who Giuliani has pushed as a witness to the purported election fraud.

Powell:         Release the Kraken!
Dominion:    Ok

A spineless power hungry snake. There is no depth that guy won't sink to for a little bit of power.

Who could of seen this coming well this guy did, also proves the Trump and his a hole supporters have no idea what January 6th is about, Trump needs to impeached for what he did on that day and the phone call to the Georgian Sec. of State a second impeachment will stop him from running for office ever again.
