If Pelosi feels like being an utter boss, she could let the Democrats introduce a spending bill with border wall funding and add a rider that Trump release his tax returns from the past two decades. The orange Don might blow a fuse.

Would be a bit pointless in the end since Mueller almost certainly already has Trump's taxes
 
That is until one earns a Republican presidential nomination and evangelical leaders are convincing their flock to vote for a particular party.

Billy Graham's lurch towards Mitt Romney risks his legacy

--They are sending out a message that says God is on the side of the white, conservative Mormon rather than the black, liberal Christian.--

I have no doubt it. I was responding to the other guy saying that Romney will take away the Evangelicals from Turmp in a primary, which is a fool's errand.
 
It's not about Romney winning its about him pre occupying trump and weakening him in the general. No republican incumbent that has been primaried won re election. Plus as I said it would be funny.

I'm aware Romney is a Mormon. I didn't say he was evangelical. Trump as far as I recall isn't evangelical either. They however could certainly back Romney over trump if he has his same policy on Israel and on moral matters that matter to them. They hate trump but tolerate him because he can get them what he wants. They actually like Romney

Why do you think he didn't start attacking Romney like. Everyone else. Such a measured calm response. Romney could really rattle him and I think that niche of voters would be key

What in the general? Romney wouldn't stand a chance in the primaries. Trump will take him our pretty easily. As we have seen in the last 2 years, Trump's base (which is pretty significant) is fully behind him. They do not care about the Russia scandal or his corruption or anything for that matter. All they care about are the cultural issues and he is acing it for them in those regards. It's the dilution of the American society that they are worried about and Trump is a living embodiment of Fox news in a president.

Romney is positioning himself as such in case Trump doesn't re-run for president. He is a new senator, who is not in any danger as his term will last well beyond Trump's first term (and only) as president. It's pretty safe from him to attack Trump and try to get decent republicans voters (if there are any) on his side early.

what are you going on about ? feck calm down. I said it would be funny to see romey primary trump. I know he would lose , they all would, thats not the point it would be FUNNY! You went on a tangent about romney and being mormon therefore he wouldnt get evangelical vote. Thats garbage and i showed why. Trump would sill win the primaries but it would be... say it with me FUNNY if romney primaried him. All what you have spewed about fox news president and people not caring about russian scandal is so irrelvant to what i was even saying.

Why would it be funny? It doesn't make any sense.

You showed me nothing. You said he'll take out the core evangelical support from Trump and I explained to you why he won't.

You clearly have little understanding of American politics and the American populace in general. But yeah, it would be funny. He he he!
 
Russia was in Afghanistan because of terrorists coming into Russia....

"A lot of these places you're reading about now are no longer part of Russia..."

Trump just read about Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, etc. for the first time this morning.
 
Why would it be funny?

becuuse i find things that make trump annoyed funny

and also any form of contested campaign would only help the dems and be expensive and slow process. That also would be funny to me. I find these things funny

You said he'll take out the core evangelical support from Trump and I explained to you why he won't.
Not seeing where you said that . I honestly dont see what trump has done for the evangelical base other than Move the Israel embassy to jerrusalem. Yes he appointed conservative judges but thats bascally more to do with mitch mcconell than him. He has accomplished very little but chat and they are starting to notice. No wall, no johnson amendment etc. Trump is actually extremely poor at getting things done and big players like Fox and Ann Coulter are starting to call him out on it. Its not crazy talk to think a republican could primary him and weaken his support with the evangelicals. God may tell Jerry Falwell that trump is no longer the second coming of christ after all , and he loses some buzz.

well now im just hurt :(

People laugh a lot at the rubes who are given their red meat of anti-abortion social conservatism by Republicans and then willingly swallow the side-effect (the destruction of the welfare state.)
Are they any more gullible than highly respected Influencers(TM) like Ezra Klein?

Trump says he would have made a ‘good general’ while trashing Mattis’ service and claiming he really fired him
https://www.businessinsider.com/tru...e-a-good-general-while-trashing-mattis-2019-1

Says

  • He would have made a good general.
  • He fired former Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis: "What's he done for me? Not too good"

It was unfortunate that he had a life-threating medical problem, "bone spurs." If not for that, he would've single-handedly ended the war much earlier!

BTW, did he have bone spurs problem 5 times? Had it been miraculously cured after the war?

Ahahah! I deserve it :lol:
 
Whose Twitter is that?

I have no idea, just some random person who keeps getting retweeted by people I follow like Aaron Rupar, Michael Moore and Jake Tapper. I just thought that was a pretty spot on observation regarding the hypocrisy around Romney. Like Eboobies says, there are no good Republicans. Just because one speaks out one time doesn't mean he suddenly deserves credit and adulation and to be welcomed to the resistance like some kind of modern day Saint.

Ah fair enough, wasn't sure if it was 'someone' if you know what I mean. I had a peruse of her feed, don't know how anyone would have got 'pro Trump' from her!
 
Draft deferments aside, is it not possible to be both a white man born in to money and a good person?
 
At least Romney is not a complete moron. He's actually really bright, and doesn't seem like a bad person. Id take that at this stage!

Yeah, I got what you meant. She has some pretty famous followers like Moore and Tapper so you never know. I also can't get how anyone would think she's pro Trump either, obviously none of the new followers checked her profile :lol:

You will awaken the Eboue with this comment. Be prepared to have you're view of mittens eviscerated. Did you know he has an elevator for his cars?

I have no problem with someone exceedingly wealthy being president, that doesn't necessarily mean they can't govern in a way that is best for a country.

To be honest, from all I've seen of the world the most progress is made under a benevolent dictator. Problem is they generally don't exist.

He agrees with all of Trump's policies. I'm glad that it's ok to get the same shit, as long as it is delivered by someone with functional literacy!
