The Trump Thread

Published

I confess to back pedaling into Trump territory when I wanted to leave discussions about him in the garbage can.  My thread on the read-only break room site has 9,600 replies so I thought I'd bring up a new one.  

He's not going away.

Haberman's book is out based on interviews.  I won't read it, but the excerpts are interesting.  Especially what he says about McConnell, a description that's against the Terms of Service here, but I actually don't disagree with.  LOL

Quote

“At one point, Trump made a candid admission that was as jarring as it was ultimately unsurprising. ‘The question I get asked more than any other question: “If you had it to do again, would you have done it?”’Trump said of running for president. ‘The answer is, yeah, I think so. Because here’s the way I look at it. I have so many rich friends and nobody knows who they are.’ … Reflecting on the meaning of having been president of the United States, his first impulse was not to mention public service, or what he felt he’d accomplished, only that it appeared to be a vehicle for fame, and that many experiences were only worth having if someone else envied them.”

Derp. You should explain how the liberal reporting failed the country relative to Trump's campaign interacting with Russians in 2016. Maybe they didn't highlight how dangerous that was for national security? You should explain if you can. 

The coverage of the laptop is pretty simple.  The hard drive came from Giuliani.  It contains no evidence that incriminates Joe Biden.   You must want more damming speculation and inflammatory language?

Yeah, collusion is a trigger word for Trump supporters because they didn't read the Mueller report or listen to his testimony and, therefore, have a misguided understanding of what the term means relative to Trump.  Can you define it for me while considering what the Mueller report and the Senate said about the matter?

 I'm struck that now you want to rehash what Durham couldn't prove and go all the way back to the dossier. Are you pretending now that the Russian interactions with Trump's campaign didn't happen and that the FBI should ignore stuff like that?

Good Lord. 

I haven't rehashed anything.  I've mentioned two stories in response to a question you asked, and then provided links in to satisfy your request for specific examples.  You keep wanting to start a discussion about the specifics of each story.  Discussions we've already had.

I do find it amusing that you still want to criticize me for not reading the Mueller report.  Thanks for the chuckle.

Willful ignorance? How very Republican.

OK, no rehashing.  You just offered up garbage for examples in your point about liberal media.  Garbage. 

I also find it amusing, in a sad way.

Trump asks to dismiss suit as attorney general says he inflated worth by $2.2 billion

This is an infrequent problem with the site.

Perhaps there's a problem with the platform and my cell phone again.  Maybe the moderators can fix it. Otherwise, you may have to find the content on your own should you be inspired to read it.

Hmm ... new marching orders, I see.

As for your question, why wouldn't she, if she's got the evidence?

While one can waive trial by jury and have their case heard by a judge only, I belive he or she still has the right to a jury trial.

Not your phone as I've had this problem as well.

An efficient AG that has a bunch of incontrovertible evidence of the corrupt behavior that brought them to court. What kind of a man enjoys so much clear public evidence of his bad judgment and dishonesty and still claims innocence?

Both parties have requested summary judgement, per the cited article.
