President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Why are you linking a WaPo story that's almost a year old?

 

I guess @Inky_Wretch isn't concerned about her imprisonment of a minor. Especially if the minor had an American name.

 

Because allowing ICE to arrest women while they are seeking protection from abusers will limit their willingness to seek such help.

 

And then it will be that much harder for her to effectively imprison minors in the future.

 

Because Felix Sater's name has come back up to the surface ...

A week before Michael T. Flynn resigned as national security adviser, a sealed proposal was hand-delivered to his office, outlining a way for President Trump to lift sanctions against Russia.

Mr. Flynn is gone, having been caught lying about his own discussion of sanctions with the Russian ambassador. But the proposal, a peace plan for Ukraine and Russia, remains, along with those pushing it: Michael D. Cohen, the president’s personal lawyer, who delivered the document; Felix H. Sater, a business associate who helped Mr. Trump scout deals in Russia; and a Ukrainian lawmaker trying to rise in a political opposition movement shaped in part by Mr. Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort.

I wonder if, in 20 years, conservatives will even allow conversation about what happened to their party back in the late teens. Most conservatives I know who are embarrassed by Trump and his minions hide behind, "Well, Trump isn't really a conservative, but Supreme Court" and leave the conversation at that. And Yiannopolis isn't even on their radar screen.

 

Never got a response on this, so he must have agreed? Oh maybe I missed the rebuttal.

 

Still waiting for the difference between proficiency and growth.

 

There's something fascinating about a man who is willing to become a Nazi merely based on the opportunity to wear more epaulets. He's like Wernher von Braun, except his bag is military fashion instead of rockets.

 

You could be concerned that she was picked up in the court while seeking a protective order so that other undocumented women are less likely to seek help for fear they would be deported.

 

Are you concerned about the minor she imprisoned?

 

I don't know. You could get that charge if you were keeping a kid away from his abusive parent. Or if you were running a child sex ring out of a pizza parlor.

Do you have more details?
