The NY Times knows who wrote this and eventually it will probably be leaked out, this and the Woodward book is really painting a bad picture of this presidency.

I doubt there's ever been something like this before. Wait till he's gone, and we find out the worst things. Cause I expect as bad as what we know is, it's probably much worse. Like He ordered a nuclear attack? That's been my biggest fear since day one. I remember the lefty bloggers writing that they were voting Trump, cause Hillary was an evil liar. They're still desperately clinging to that sewage. Edited September 5, 2018 by Mark F Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 Trump has been raging and trying to flex muscles he doesn't have, demanding the NY Times turn over the Op-Ed author for national security reasons. I suspect, if he tried anything crazy, his military leaders would talk him down. Barring that, they'd threaten to resign (which usually backs Trump down). Even the alt-right in his orbit want him out and want Pence in. if the Dems can take the House to a significant degree and assuming the Mueller Investigation will be damning, you might actually see the GOP Senators side with impeachment. Rudy G was on CNN last night and said its ridiculous because you'd never get enough GOP Senators....we shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudy G was on CNN last night and said its ridiculous because you'd never get enough GOP Senators....we shall see. Thinking past the midterms and how long Trump can hold out I wonder how this will impact the 2020 election? Normally, there would only be a fringe challenge to a sitting president's nomination as the presidential candidate. Someone who goes against the party to challenge the incumbent. I would think that there will a whole host of legitimate GOP candidates who are ready to challenge Trump for the presidential nomination this time. That being said, they need to work now to start building support and a network. Yes, they can come into the race later but without a coordinated team, there are plenty of risks. Will they have the time to do this if Trump hangs on for another year plus? How quickly can Pence get a campaign together? Is he too close to Trump? How fractured will the GOP be? Hooboy, what an interesting (yet terrifying) time in US politics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooboy, what an interesting (yet terrifying) time in US politics. Im sure there will be many twists and turns along the way. If the Mueller report is criminally damning, it will almost certainly lead to impeachment in a Dem-controlled House. If the Republicans are hurt badly in the mid-terms, they will start to turn on Trump and perhaps an internal movement to convince Senators to convict him (or pressure Trump to resign. Pence feels its his God-given destiny to be President...will he tie his can to Trump in 2020 if Trump looks like a lame duck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do or die Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 This Op-Ed in the NY Times has certainly existed a great deal of wild speculation. Investigations, lie detectors, and a lot of brave people insisting that they are not Spartacus. Having a great deal of practical experience with whodunits - have consulted my advanced tools, to help shed some light on this. I have now narrowed it down to a number of prime suspects: Colonel Mustard (Kelly) Mr. Green (Pence) Major Plum (Mattis) Miss Scarlet (Hicks) Professor Peacock (Pompeo) Mrs. White (Conway) Miss Peacock (Ivanka) bustamente, The Unknown Poster, JCon and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 This is interesting. The white power “okay” hand gesture was originally a hoax. But we’ve seen members of the alt right use it. Supposedly it’s meant to troll the left. I’m not sure if using a symbol people have come to regard as “white power” is really a shot at the left. Seems more like a confirmation of the people using it. So the second time this guys law clerk has used this on TV during the hearings. Is she trolling? Is she sending a white power symbol? Either way she’s an idiot and highly unprofessional. And making a farce of her boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question is why? Is she just an immature unprofessional troll? She’s not doing her boss any favours? Or has the symbol actually become a sign of the white nationalist movement? Oh and...ummmmm trump can’t tell the truth so he can’t be questioned. Hmmm JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
