Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

The debates could make things interesting

 

Only if you enjoy seeing dumb animals mercilessly beaten.

In anything remotely resembling a legitimate debate, HRC busts Fucko like a piñata.

Instead, Fatfuck will yell something like "your butt smells, I win!!"

 

I'm loving every damn second of it, especially the part about the GOP imploding on a national scale and splintering back into a handful of inconsequential interest groups. The "conservative movement" has been exposed as the lie it always was. It's just been a loose coalition of rich people who hate to pay their fair share, angry left-behind white people who want their factory jobs back, cowardly isolationists, outright racists and a libertarian branch that thinks all problems can be solved by closing their eyes and doing basically nothing.

Plus Hillary will be a great president. She's smart, well prepared and determined.

 

You're becoming a parody.

 

Are you trying to convince us, or yourself?

Constantly repeating it doesn't make it true.

 

Logically the GOP as a whole would expect to suffer a heavy penalty for handing its nomination to a deranged fool but I don't see that happening. Republicans should hold the House and the majority of governorships and state legislatures (which should help them solidify their hold on the House past the 2020 census). They're slight underdogs to hold the Senate, but likely to take it back in the 2018 midterms. Long term demographics and a run of left-leaning federal judges are cutting against them, but they aren't collapsing and they have some time to turn things around.

 

LOL. I forget, do you like Hillary or not like Hillary?

 

Given he's gone full alt-right by hiring Breitbarters to run the campaign, I'm guessing he will be quadrupling down on the crazy.

 

Trump advisers waged covert influence campaign

WASHINGTON (AP) — A firm run by Donald Trump's campaign chairman directly orchestrated a covert Washington lobbying operation on behalf of Ukraine's ruling political party, attempting to sway American public opinion in favor of the country's pro-Russian government, emails obtained by The Associated Press show. Paul Manafort and his deputy, Rick Gates, never disclosed their work as foreign agents as required under federal law.

The lobbying included attempts to gain positive press coverage of Ukrainian officials in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Associated Press. Another goal: undercutting American public sympathy for the imprisoned rival of Ukraine's then-president. At the time, European and American leaders were pressuring Ukraine to free her. ...

Manafort and Gates have previously said they were not doing work that required them to register as foreign agents. Neither commented when reached by the AP on Thursday.

"Lock him up! Lock him up!"

 

Hmmm ... FBI notes reveal Hillary said Colin Powell told her to use private email.
