    1. What has this got to do with Trump Jr and Kushner? Both are heavily involved with the conspiracy with the Russian governors and will be dealt with accordingly. There is no escaping the Special Counsel's investigations. They will be jailed.

    Words are meaningless. What you're saying about them being jailed is opinion not fact. And as I already said, I'm willing to bet on it.
    2. As I said, Trump has not implemented any influential legislation to change Obama's policies so this is Obama's tenure continuing unhindered into 2018. Obama did one hell of a job, his Presidency continues unimpeded into year 10, must be the longest period of uninterrupted policy in US history.

    Well this is nonsense. The Iran deal, the TPP, the paris climate accord, affirmative action, individual mandate, war on coal, Dodd Frank deregulation, pipelines, religious freedom, fuel economy standards, Israel embassy etc. I don't agree with some of them but to say he hasn't had a huge impact in under 2 years is being straight up disingenuous.

    This is just bizarre.

    https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1058388700617498625

    The Presidency is just a ratings game to him. He's treating it like a TV show. I doubt he even knows GoT. It is probably the idea of some stupid staffer and Trump loved it. FFS, what a child!

    Have to say, I did have a small luas lol which got some strange looks when I read Samantha Bees reply

    In terms of wage growth & job creation, this is generally expected in a growing economy. Massively increasing your deficit, etc... are not seen as normal at a point of growth, and that's fully attributable to Trump & Republican policy

    I'll engage with you when you answer the question of whether you condemn the racist rhetoric of Trump and if not, why not. I've asked you at least twice.

    Until then, your viewpoint is contaminated by an implicit acceptance of racism and hate speech.

    I don't know what you're talking about. I don't dwell on your posts or anyone else's because they are of little importance to me. I've never said I agree with all of Trump's rhetoric or anything like it, go back a couple of days and you'll see I condemned him for that body slamming comment. There's no doubt some of the other stuff you'll deem racist I don't agree with either like for e.g. the Mexican rapists comment, but you're not going to shame me with your hate speech spiel for having different political opinions, try it on someone else. And fwiw calling Don Lemon an idiot isn't racist, that's what he is.

    Bet offer Trump is gone by Xmas stands if you want to make it, like I said 10/1. Can donate to charities if you wish.

    In a normal functioning Government, this would be enough to impeach Trump. I live in Australia, not the model of democracies, but we are on our third PM in about ten years. A tweet like this, you're out of office overnight. This is a real, serious well paid job. There is no tolerance for bull**** like this, playing the ****ing maggot. Out, out, out, out out.

    It is just unfathomable that he thinks this is ok. Also, the 15,000 soldiers sent to an empty border over Christmas all have a vote. They are not his toys. They are human beings sent to patrol an empty border during the holidays, thanksgiving and Christmas. They are being treated like filth, and I tell you now they will not stand for it.

    Saying someone never has anything of value to offer. No more discussing mod warnings on thread please.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    You could say I'm doing a Trump. Calling it like it is and if the snowflakes don't like it, TS. ;)

    Cut out the inflammatory tone please.

    It's an embarrassment, a global embarrassment. And while the Chinese markets smile and the Russian markets settle, the US is in a constant state of turmoil.

    The US continues to capitulate to its foreign owners.

    OK...

    It will be interesting to see what happens after the midterms. It looks like the Dems will take over the house and that could make for interetsing times. Especially interesting for Donald.

    The phrase "a wounded animal is most dangerous" comes to mind especially if he is feeling the pressure from Mueller and probably a House with a Democrat majority.

    Yes, what'll be potentially really interesting is if the take the house & then subpoena his tax records. He will absolutely lose his sh1t

    That'd be glorious to see! How he's gotten away without releasing those for so long is anyone's guess.

    I think he's already lost that battle. He's just lost his appeal for a stay in a "foreign and domestic emoluments" case taken by the AG's of DC and Maryland and will now have to allow discovery of all kinds of documents. I'm ptobably over-simplifying, so here's the meat


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,315 ✭✭✭✭prawnsambo


    Oh, and just for those who think Donny's words don't have consequences (and yes, you have to be a psycho to do this in the first place) but does he have to be an alibi for every reactionary in the world?

    Are any of those things things that needed a bill through congress ? The poster said trump had no significant legislative wins. None of what you have stated as an achievement is legislative.

    A piece in Vanity Fair from Cohen claiming Trump made a number of racist remarks.

    Reality is, unless there is tape, it'll be dismissed

    You seriously can't want to get rid of liars while not giving out about the commander in chief?

    You say two more to go. What evidence do you have that Ford committed an offense? The right was all about evidence (without allowing an investigation) against Kavanagh so they won't like you referring to Ford as a liar without proof.

    So, given that you posted the twitter dump and the related letter, what exactly are you saying? Like, what does "Anyhoo, 2 liars down.. one to go" mean? I'm sorry but I don't get the point you may be trying to make..

    Do you really think HC is a racist and trump is a man of the people?


    I'm no fan of HC but when you say "2 liars down ....one to go"

    that describes the GOP.

    "there was a tape of Hillary's racist remarks" Which as piss poor as she was was it was clearley taking the p out Trump.




    There are tapes of Trump talking about sexually assualting women and saying how he could get away with it because he was "A star".

    How any parent ..sibling/parent tlk that right?

    Who are the other two people you are claiming to be liars and do you have evidence against them was the point being made.

    You have certainly not answered this.

    (Yes the woman you quote is an idiot. I would certainly never vote for her ...)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,109 ✭✭✭TomOnBoard



    So, now that you've followed up with yet another twitter dump, accompanied by a statement "You shouldn't have to.... but I accept" that, frankly, I cannot decipher, I ask again: what exactly are you saying?

    I'm no longer sorry as it seems to affect you so much, but I still don't get the point(s) you may be trying to make.. Like, do you have a point that you would like to make? Do you have an opinion?

    Or, are you simply going to play ping pong with twittercrumbs and as they arrive on your desktop, you will ping them back out to us? That's hardly debate, or objective reasoning... Nor are the freakotwitterato burps of all kinds of sleazoid Twitter contributors helpful as part of the debating forum on here... If you want to ping your pong without any assessment or reasoning, I'd suggest that you stick to Twitter and stop polluting this forum with your non- reasoning and Blah!! emissions.

    Even if there was a tape, it'll be described as "locker room talk". Everyone knows Trump's a racist person. The people who dislike Trump will add it to their reasons to dislike him and his supporters will love hm for "telling it like it is".


    Trump's racism is best ignored. Giving it any attention just plays into his and his supporters' hands.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,025 ✭✭✭vetinari


    It's been known for years that Trump is a complete racist.
    It's not really news at this point.
    His supporters are okay with that.

    Looks like the lawsuit brought by some states, regarding adding a citizenship question to the 2020 Census, can proceed, per the USSC:

    Trumpy might not be happy with Wilbur Ross today. Oh well. As it is, another cabinet member might not be long for the Administration:

    That letter appears to refer to a rape in the back seat of a car. Was that raised in the SC hearings? I've never heard that accusation before. Who is the second person you refer to?

    Qualfiications? Not needed in the Trump WH. Relevant work experience? No. Loyalty to Trump - the job's yours:

    Is there any way of twitter finding out [through their origins] who made the application of the thousands of twitter accounts it has deleted as fake asking democrat voters not to vote in the Nov elections, seeing as how twitter has stated that the accounts were opened from within the US? Would I be correct in thinking that the source/s can be found, even if they and the persons behind them cannot be fully identified before the mid-term elections.
