President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Reminds me of this:

 

Ha, our office is across the street from a Kum & Go. They are gas stations. They also sell t-shirts, hats, etc. (How the hell have I never thought to include that in a Secret Santa package?? I guess you just get used to it.)

They're honestly probably the highest quality chain of gas stations in the area, but they're nothing special. Just clean, well stocked and 24/7. The one across the street shares a building with a Subway that employed a woman who spent a few years in jail for killing her two kids. The Subway workers also sometimes pull the bread for your sandwich out of a bucket sitting on the floor.

 

A few years?!?

 

Two years. She left her kids in one running car and went and had sex with her boyfriend in another car.

We didn't realize who she was or that she was working nearby (the deaths took place in the region, but not locally.) TV news tracked her down, though, and billed it as "mother who killed her children now working at a Bumblefuck sandwich shop!" We were all ready to play detective and figure out which sandwich shop, then she popped on the screen for her interview and she was wearing a nametag, a hat and a shirt that said "SUBWAY" and she was standing out in front of the restaurant.

So, we thought that was pretty funny ... uh, not the children part. The Subway promotion part.

 

Texas is heeling. Now he just needs to get the rest of the country to heel.

 

Some people believe that constantly being in a tit-fot-tat with a country possessing 8,000 nuclear weapons is against our best interests.

Some people believe constantly threatening the security of a nation possessing 8,000 nuclear weapons by NATO expansion on its borders and other European and Middle East meddling is against our best interests.

Some people believe that sanctions are nothing more than attitude in place of real policy, and that real policy is a better alternative.

Some people believe working WITH a country possessing 8,000 nuclear weapons is a better alternative than working AGAINST them. Especially when the "against" part really has nothing to do with "American interests" (Syria, Ukraine) but simply is taking the opposite side just because, well, that's what we always do (see Afghanistan, 80s).

 

One of the cashiers at my local gas station did two years for manslaughter in her son's death. Left her kids unsupervised with a loaded pistol in her closet. Kids were playing with it and the 12 year old killed the 9 year old.

She seems nice enough and I sort of feel bad for her every time I see her in there. The two surviving kids got moved to foster care. She worked there before going to prison and the owner re-hired her when she got out. Compared to most felons, I suppose she's lucky in that regard. But I can't imagine living with the pain of losing all of your kids, one to a gunshot, because you were to stupid to lock up your guns.

 

Remember when one of his original excuses for firing Comey was that he was too rough on Clinton? That's ok, neither does Trump.

#lookoverthere

 

Then brought up a nothingburger right before the election, helping Trump win.

You falsely claimed that Democrats were flip-flopping on Comey, but you are absolutely doing it now.
