Have you read thisfrom the transcript of the phone call with the Mexican President?

And interpreter, I think Enrique understands everything I said, unless you, Enrique, feel you want an interpretation for this, please continue to go forward, is that okay?


PEÑA NIETO
Yes, I will be okay.

TRUMP
Because I have been with him – he speaks better English than me – so we will just go on.

At least he's honest :lol:
 
Comparing anyone to Hitler generally means you've lost the argument.

Oh and BTW, he's not a fascist and calling his voters deplorables is the sort of snobby elitism that helped Trump win the election in the first place.

Yea, don't call them deplorables. Call them, uneducated, developmentally challenged, sibling shagging rejects.

:)
 


Sounds like more trouble at Trumps latest rally. FFS, what's the betting Trump asked the Police to "remove their hand" when putting the protestors in the cars. :rolleyes:
 
This is exactly how Trumpy America started!
 


:lol:

Also, Tucker "Two Faces" Carlson is doing his best to completely ignore everything that's happening, and to focus on smearing and mocking CNN and Acosta and Cuomo. He's calling them all a joke and an embarrassment. He's doing this with his usual two expressions and without a hint of irony.

:lol:



:lol: Trump's big announcement completely and utterly forgotten with all the breaking news stories coming out tonight. He is going to be fuming, it's usually him playing those types of games. Twitter should be fun to wake up to tomorrow morning.



While we are on the subject of breaking news stories, here's one that was lost in the huge stories breaking earlier today. This one is just as important and will be just as humiliating for Trump, and it's nice to finally see a bi-partisan fight back from the Senate. Has the tide finally started to turn? Huge drops in support and poll numbers, and he's hovering dangerously close to 30% approval now, the investigations, the constant attacks on the Republicans and the Senate, the constant lies, the really upsetting announcements such as the Transgender Tweets and then the embarrassments like the recent conversations with other world leaders and then being caught out with lies and politicising a Scouts Jamboree. Is it now finally too much? And is this the beginning of the fightback? The fact Pence has been so fecking quiet leads me to think he's busy planning an inauguration.
 
His "big" announcement was that the Governor of West Virginia stopped pretending that he's a Democrat after being a Republican until 2015?

:lol: he's having a hard time "winning"
 
You have a good point indeed. I don't think deplorable myself but I do think they live in cuckoo land. Anyone who even entertains the notion that someone is capable of offering them "the best healthcare with a fraction of the price" can only be the most adorably hopeful optimist.

I still think of it as the Great Swindle. That he a born elitist managing to convince people that he's working for them. In days since his presidency, then only actual tangible benefit has gone to Trump hotels and golf course.

Imagine the kids -- they are either entirely all in or they will be completely disappointed with their Dad the scammer in chief.
 
I don't disagree, I was just making a crack based on John Oliver's piece on Jones the conman.
Organic but not organic, no gmo but has gmo and is only found on comets and blueberries. The nut cases have well and truly taken over the asylum.
 


Some sanity in the midst of the madness.


YOu have a grand jury and then the selection of the 21/23 jurists.

How do you get people who go in there with a blank slate with this marmite president? Secondly, if you do find those blank slate jurist, arent they then likely to be low information folks, who would then be Trump supporter's profile?
 
You should understand that under all that pussy grabbing comments, he promised jobs esp in coal/steel sectors, less immigration, better healthcare etc and came across different to the sneaky political operator that Hillary came across as. He has a fair share of extremist nut supporters, but many were swayed by promised benefits to their lives.
I gave this analogy to a girl-friend last year who was trying to make sense of the 2 candidates. It's like 2 kids, one's a teenage girl and the other's an infant. You will love either one if s/he's yours. With the teenage kid, you know she will be up to no good. You expect her to be sneaky behind your back, breaking a few curfews and whatnot. Potentially she can cause very big problems but you know at the core she's sensible enough to not go overboard.

With the baby, he can get all cute and lovable on first view and you lose all your good senses. But god, you will tear your eyes out when he shits all over the place, and it will be your mess to clean up.
 
Not sure if it's already been posted.



I don't understand how that isn't illegal, directly profiting from tax payers.
 
I think that's not his actual account, it's just made to look similar. Look at his followers.

This is the real one I think https://mobile.twitter.com/julianassange?lang=en


Real or not, 70% of 7000 odd voters think there will be civil war if Trump is impeached, and what's worse is many are actively calling for it. I bet many are actively preparing for it too. I sincerely think that is why everything is taking so damn long and why the press are drip feeding stories rather than dropping it all at once AND why no action has been taken yet. It's bad enough that there are not adequate cheques and balances in place to prevent an unhinged mobster and his family from taking over the country, let alone the fact that it's not safe to remove them because of their fanatical, gun wielding fan base. As I and many others have said before, the USA really does need to learn some very harsh lessons from all this and has to work out how to prevent it from ever happening again.

Anyway. Roger Stone is always good for a laugh...........

I was at a bar with some buddies at the beginning of summer and heard a couple 60+ year old Trump loving jackasses discussing this. One was talking about how he doesn't move as well as he used to, the other telling him they don't have to be mobile, just efficient. I wanted to lean in and tell them they'd be fighting people like me, and I'm pretty efficient at 400-500 yards with a .30-06, so their asses wouldn't make it.

The kicker..? I know the people. They are the husbands of women I teach with. This was after our high school's graduation ceremony.

At a CFB forum (one dedicated to my alma mater), you cannot make it through a single conversation critical of Trump without vapid threats of civil war.

And of course the standard 'Obammer something something.'

Jokes aside, do you not find that slightly frightening?

I'm here thinking about how crazy this all is but then I look at the news cycle and it's all shrugs and meh. 'Trump being Trump'

...meanwhile you have sections getting ready for a possible civil war, with the means to... Well, you know where I'm going. There was an interesting vox video about this hypernormalisation... I'll try and find it.

I always find the notion that a bunch of overweight rednecks can take on trained soldiers amusing. How are they going to 'overthrow' the government if the best they can do is holed up in their trailers?
 
Interesting... @Organic Potatoes @afrocentricity @InfiniteBoredom

I had a response typed out, it double posted, I deleted one, and both went away... lol

Anyway... Organic - I can totally see Oklahoma not being any better than SC in this regard.

Afro - It's always in the back of my mind, that there's an armed militia of a million or so ignorant rednecks running around here. Luckily, I'm like the SC version of the Liberal Redneck on YouTube, so I can blend in and gtfo when shtf

Infinite - I've wondered that myself. Also.. what are they gonna do when their Bud Light and Copenhagen supply runs out 2 weeks into the fight?

Bah, bloody fake Twitter accounts. The responses are still hugely troubling though.

Not sure if it's already been posted.

This is something I've mentioned in relation to his ever more frequent golf trips, all to his own resorts. Millions upon millions of taxpayer dollars going into Trump companies.

I saw a documentary by Morgan Spurlock where he looked a the 2A issue and spent time with gun lovers etc to challenge his own positions. The amount of rednecks buying shit loads of guns to be prepared to fight the government was as scary as it was dumb as feck.

I mean, ignore the fact that these idiots think they can take on the Marines, they're hoarding enormous amount of ammunitions and aren't the smartest people in the world. There was also a predictable amount of hate for Obama.

I wouldn't take those militia lightly.... Some of them will be fairly well trained, and it's not really them vs the military/government I'd be worried about. It's them vs the 'other', and however that may manifest itself...

Yea that was what I was getting at, although granted reading it back I didn't make my point very well.
 
The sad fact is, a great number of enlisted in the military would agree politically with the rednecks... hell, they ARE the rednecks.

I agree about the folks who've stocked up with guns and ammo in the plan of bunkering down and holding out.

I've got guns and I've got ammo, but enough to get the hell out of here with, not to stay.
