    Don t know what that has to do with my question but Ill answer you anyway, she displayed awful cowardice there and clearly did so because she didn t want to upset her political ambitions I ve never had time for the Clintons,,...now what do you make of Trump's denial of the death toll in the Puerto Rican hurrican or perhaps you believe his claim that the death toll was fake news put out by the Dems as he s claimed.

    That's my point.
    It's as relevant as the whataboutery earlier about puerto rico.

    Trump is the president and this thread is about him. How is discussing things about him not relevant?

    The Trump supporter obsession with Hillary is bizarre.

    I think some of it might be sexual.

    The official death toll is only an estimate, nobody knows the real figure. The official estimate is less than 3000, so he is not wrong in that sense. It is quite possible that deaths unrelated to the hurricane were factored into the estimate.

    No thanks.

    The official estimate is 2,975. So yeah, lower than 3000 but we all know he isn't being pedantic if he talks about how when he left there were something like 16 fatalities.

    Or Donald Trunp raping his own wife and bragging about sexual assault... I mean this thread is about him after all.

    Don't worry... its not like they are defining l FEMA (disaster relief) to go towards ICE who have been kidnapping, drugging and torturing cholden, including hose of US citizens, hundreds of which have mysteriously "gone missing" or anything.

    But what about Hilary?

    It's the standard response. She's not on the scene anymore and his supporters still go back to it.

    It's getting to the stage where liberals are breeding with inanimate objects. They are supposed to hate the POTUS but cannot even spell his name.

    Sorry what was your post yesterday complaining about insults?

    Now if you can get beyond the fact I had a phone typo, are you going to answer the questions or not about Trump having to settle out of court (something he has bragged about hating having to do and that his spokesperson has said innocent people simply do not do) for raping his wife and bragging about sexual assault or not?

    Well the insults continue from the liberals and do not receive moderation so I shall continue and respond in kind.


    Any proof of these unfounded (yet again) allegations?

    Mod: Take a day off, enough backseat moderation.

    'muh liberals'

    Trump can't even pronounce 'anonymous', I doubt some guy on boards has to take lessons there.

    Have a read of this when you get the chance , it ll give you a better indication why you re just as much of a **** as he is if you don t for once call him out on gas-lighting the experiences of an entire nation. Imagine if someone minimised the experiences of the Irish famine how would you be ok with that too.

    At this stage, if you support Trump you are a troll, a simpleton or a scumbag.

    To quickly point out on Trump raping his wife and settling out of court: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivana_Trump
    The Trumps' divorce proceedings appeared on New York tabloid newspapers' covers for 11 days in a row, and Liz Smith wrote about nothing else for three months.[16] Their divorce, in a deposition for which she accused him of rape and of pulling out handfuls of her hair, was settled in 1991. A condition of settlement was that she not talk about their marriage without his permission.[17] The divorce was finalized in 1992.[18]

    His bragging about sexual assault (which is what "grabbing women by the p*ssy" is) we already know all about as it's been replayed on video thousands of times, though his followers don't care whatsoever and most simply refuse to acknowledge it.

    And, again, as I already went through in detail in another post in this very thread, the fact that under his administration children (including those of US citizens) have been systematically kidnapped, drugged and tortured:

    And that with 3,000 Puerto Ricans dead from a lack of disaster relief and with the current hurricane in North and South Carolina, that the Trump administration is diverting funds from there to the same program that has been doing said kidnapping, drugging and torturing of very young children: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2018/09/12/politics/ice-more-money-fema-dhs/index.html

    What's the word for when a group people blindly follow 'the leader' to the point that they completely ignore reality, refuse to even answer to it, and become openly hostile to those that point it out to them?

    Anyway, this might explain Trump's sudden change of heart - after being found guilty of the first bout of charges, the chairman of Donald Trump's presidential campaign (Paul Manafort, who just by sheer coincidence I am sure was also an adviser to Putin's puppet Prime Minister in the Ukraine that got overthrown in 2014 as well as having a lot of close ties to many of the oligarchs at the centre of the Russian/US election investigation) has today plead guilty to a litany of charges, including obstruction of justice and conspiracy against the United States: https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/9fryl8/extrump_campaign_chief_paul_manafort_agrees_to/

    Question about the terms of these plea-deals:

    Do the only benefit if the information is deemed accurate, or the information results in a prosecution, or no such terms?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
