President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

So, his detailed quote is based on his four year old memory of a conversation at a party?

I've read you on eye witnesses ability to recount such details.

Why would you believe he could put together this conversation so clearly?

And, why has he never used this line, which is a great line, ever before, or since?

 

Negotiator Trump off to an outstanding start:

After meeting with pharma lobbyists, Trump drops promise to negotiate drug prices

 

Apples and oranges. I'm talking about layman witnesses recalling the details of sudden events, like crimes. This wasn't a "fog of war" circumstance. It was a conversation between reporter and subject, or, really, two journalists.

Did the reporter repeat the conversation word-for-word? Probably not. But "I'm a Leninist" who wants to "tear down the State" might stay with someone.

I'm not going to spend the rest of the afternoon going round and round about this. We all know that you're like a pitbull with a bone. But I'm 99.99999999 percent certain that the writer didn't invent a quote in August for an inside-baseball piece on a doomed candidate's Hail Mary hire. There are zero red flags here.

 

Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.) was asked about Trump's order today by a reporter. His response? "That's above my pay grade." He's a fucking United States Senator. It's in the Constitution, Article I, that having an opinion on that is part of his job. What a gutless piece of garbage. Also stupid. A better pol would have some weasel words to duck the question.

 

Speaking of protesting, more than 1,000 Real Americans showed up in Helena to protest plans to sell off public land.

More than 1,000 rally against transferring or selling federal lands

It was in response to Rep. Jason Chaffetz, who introduced bills to sell 3.3 million acres of public land and eliminate the LEO divisions of the Bureau of Land Management and US Forest Service. His solution? Let the local sheriffs do all the work. (Because that's a great idea when you're miles deep into the backcountry.)

New House Bills Aim to Sell Off Public Lands and to "Get Rid of the BLM and U.S. Forest Service Police”

 

Just wait until we can do subtitles when Trump has his meltdown in the bunker.

 

‪If Steve Bannon is a Leninist, will the name of St. Petersburg soon be changed to Bannongrad?‬

 

Naah, that's what they'll call Mar-a-Lago.

 

It is raining in Bannongrad.

 

Bannon's a fucking liar. The end.

 

LMAO

 

You're failing to see the wheels turning here. In lieu of paying for The Wall, Mexico is going to pay for our drugs which, given the way things have started, is going to cost them much more in the long run.

The best deals. The best.
