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.

Is this crazy or what?

 

An earlier tweet linked to a post on Cain's website written by his daughter, Dr. Melanie Cain Gallo in which she said she and others on the website's editorial team would be continuing Cain's legacy.

"We’ve decided here at Cain HQ that we will go on using this platform to share the information and ideas he believed in. He often talked about the site going on once he was ready to step away from it. We had hoped he could enjoy reading it in his retirement, but he made it clear he wanted it to go on," Gallo wrote.

The reporter after the one who asked about Trump lying should of asked him the same question, and the one after him and the one after him till you would of seen Trump's fat face turn red and he waddled from the podium

Of course they are, the King and Queen don't have time to vote in person, you peasants go stand in line and vote

 

Good Grief...

I weep for that country...

Here is a great run down of what the USPS crackdown is all about...

 

 

 

 

 

 

If people don't go to jail over what this administration has done and is attempting to do then I hope America burns.

This is the guy who brazenly asked Trump about regretting all his lies...

Why would they? the benefit huge from trumps corporate tax cuts and are going to reap the benefits of a USPS in tatters... If I was a souless corporate entity that is a slave to the bottom line... let the USPS tank and **** the USA.

Not possible. USPS is the only organization that has the legal authority to provide postage marks. It just doesn't work to have third party orgs pick up votes and drop them off on behalf of the voters. In fact, it makes this even more dubious. 

Remember, if there are alt-right, QAnon wackos on MBB, there are many more working for UPS, Fedex, etc.

Can you imagine trusting something like ballots to a for profit 3rd party? 

IN THE ROUGH
Donald Trump has poured hundreds of millions of dollars into his struggling Scottish golf clubs. Lawmakers in Edinburgh want to know where that cash came from.

...the self-proclaimed “king of debt” typically takes out large loans to finance the ventures he does bankroll. In this case, Trump’s company proceeded with the development on its own. And it says it paid for everything in cash.
Such was also the case for Turnberry, the historic golf resort, an hour south of Glasgow, that Trump purchased in 2014 for $60 million.
....
Like other Trump wagers, his Scottish gamble has so far not worked out. Both resorts are bleeding millions annually. 
....
If business was lackluster before, it’s dismal now that the coronavirus pandemic has all but halted the Scottish golf season, at least as far as international travelers are concerned.

Recently, a new—and perhaps bigger—threat to Trump has emerged in Scotland. Scottish lawmakers are pushing to peer into Trump’s finances using an anti-money-laundering statute typically employed against kleptocrats, oligarchs, and crime kingpins. Their question: Where did the hundreds of millions Trump poured into his Scottish courses actually come from?
...
This February, a group of Scottish Parliament members began making the case that Scotland should use an investigative tool under UK law called an Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) to scrutinize Trump’s transactions. It can’t be wielded against just anyone; it’s designed to make inquiries into the finances of “politically exposed persons” suspected of money laundering.

👁‍🗨And he still hates windmills.

Perhaps this is why Trump was so inconvenienced in the New Year to deal with something petty like a pandemic.

This article has everything ...Trump suing and losing, fake Scottish crests from Trump, windmills and broken promises...
