President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

This is not about political strategy this is about ego driven score settling. Acting director of ICE replaced.

This is why Bannon replaced him.

Even at my most pessimistic, I never would have suspected such a complete and utter shitshow so quickly under Trump.

 

How is it fake? He *IS* registered in three states.

 

What do you think of this?

 

Real mystery how the guy had so many bankruptcies, ain't it?

 

This is what I'm finding so shocking. How quickly it's all going to hell.

 

Is this accurate? Because, if it is, wow.


(6) Finally, I want to highlight a story that many people haven’t noticed. On Wednesday, Reuters reported (in great detail) how 19.5% of Rosneft, Russia’s state oil company, has been sold to parties unknown. This was done through a dizzying array of shell companies, so that the most that can be said with certainty now is that the money “paying” for it was originally loaned out to the shell layers by VTB (the government’s official bank), even though it’s highly unclear who, if anyone, would be paying that loan back; and the recipients have been traced as far as some Cayman Islands shell companies.

Why is this interesting? Because the much-maligned Steele Dossier (the one with the golden showers in it) included the statement that Putin had offered Trump 19% of Rosneft if he became president and removed sanctions. The reason this is so interesting is that the dossier said this in July, and the sale didn’t happen until early December. And 19.5% sounds an awful lot like “19% plus a brokerage commission.”

 

Nor I. I had it in my head it'd be a series of trivial victories that would be completely oversold as Yuuuuge!

 

Just going to leave this here, to cap a day that began with this poor man being accused of murder, and certain members of this board somehow finding reasons to gloat for that:
