its incredible how he's been rich his entire life yet trump still behaves like an over the top parody of a rich man
His age is shorthand for "inexperienced and unqualified" in this situation.You do know that George Stephanopoulos was exactly the same age when he held that position for Bill and Joe Johnson wasn't much older..
Nobody who is that age should be serving in that kind of capacity. I don't care how smart they are.
Daniel Pfeiffer for Obama wasn't much older...
32 or 33 isn't really all that young for that position, it is just that the president himself is a clown...
Even then I don't think it's a good idea.
At least those people were genuinely impressive instead of this deadeyed campus fascist.

I don't even know how a Jewish fascist works.. How does a guy like that team-up with Richard Spencer?

By blackace Go To PostNow that Trump has decided to jump on board with the 1 China agreement.. China really doesn't need NK to fuck that up for them. Kind of interesting how this has played out so far.. It could have been SO much worse..I'm of the same opinion.
Gotta be luck.

Seems like an easy excuse for it.. Could be it tho..

In the highly contentious battle to extinguish public worker rights, Iowa Republicans have attempted a divide-and-conquer approach to pit unions against each other. Their legislation splits public workers into two groups, one that’s “public safety workers,” and one that isn’t. The idea was to strip away nearly all collective bargaining rights from most public employees, but keep most of it for police and firefighters, who are politically more difficult to go after.
It didn’t work.
Hundreds of helmeted firefighters have flooded the Statehouse in the last week and police officers and sheriffs have lined up at committee hearings to speak against it. They don’t trust that this carve-out for their jobs will last long, nor do many of them feel it’s appropriate to deny the bargaining rights they have to fellow workers who have also had them for over 40 years.
“It’s collective begging, that’s what it is,” Thomas labeled the bill at a subcommittee hearing. “Half of law enforcement folks I work with are Republicans. And we voted for Republicans because of conservative values. But we didn’t vote for Republicans to get stabbed in the back while we’re trying to dodge cars and bullets.”

The press needs to relentlessly grill GOP lawmakers on whether Trump's conflicts of interest should be allowed to continue.
It is utterly obscene that people are able to pay for direct access to the president's private club.
He can use Camp David like every other president.
Something tells me he'd rather resign than give up Mar-a-Lago though.

By Perfect Blue Go To PostMy dude Justin beside Trump lol geez. No one seemed to embarrass themselves at least.
You sure about that.....
Also we now know Trump does some weird handshake thing where he pulls your arm (and displays his old man strength) to make himself seem like a alpha and intimidate people which is stupid beyond comprehension but whats new? Apparently its now a thing and Justin came prepared but you could see Trump try and yank his arm......
and then Trump ever the 12 year old tried to do it again....

It feels like the walls are closing in on Flynn.
Which is great. He's a damn snitch and if he gets fired, rest assured there will be hell to pay.

lol
By Enron Go To Postlol, let the unraveling begin
As soon as Pence claimed Flynn lied to to him, I thought this was coming. What's funny is not even 24 hours ago Conway was claiming Trumps full support of Flynn. Petraeus being floated as a possible replacement just shows the lack of self awareness.
MSNBC basically saying for the last hour that Flynn's entire phone conversation was about sanctions:
A. Flynn can't do anything regarding sanctions bimself
B. He doesn't make that cal without approval from higher up

There's absolutely no way Stephen MIller isn't into weird sex stuff
NO WAY
don't give him any meaningful power just in case. Or better yet, give him Weiner's hacked phone

My guess is everyone on Trump's team is in on it. Probably would take months before it really starts to unravel though.
Lol @ Trump making fun of DNC for having such bad security that Russia was able to hack them during the campaign, then hiring a secret Russian as his national security advisor.
I would be shocked if the Russians haven't hacked Trump and/or the RNC as well. They have leverage of some kind.
And yes, the obvious question with Flynn is why the hell wasn't he forced out a month ago when the acting AG alerted the White House to his phone call?
It seems to me that he likely did it with the blessing of superior(s) and they thought they could ride it out when Trump took office.

Besides potentiality the whole administration going down in flames, is there any chance Republicans can go down with the ship too?. Would love to see the GOP finally get what's coming to them.
By Nelo Ice Go To PostBesides potentiality the whole administration going down in flames, is there any chance Republicans can go down with the ship too?. Would love to see the GOP finally get what's coming to them.Not with gerrymandering and voter suppression efforts.
I would say that the fundamental question of US politics (and the US's future as a whole) is what's going to become of the cancer that is the modern Republican Party. I don't see any easy answers there.
With Flynn resigning because of the Russian scandal, what's one of the stupidest thing the Trump administration can do at the moment?
