President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Didn't Nunes recuse himself from all things Russia?

No matter. Whatever they find, regardless of party, is good with me.

Is it possible Mueller finds collision with Trump and the Trump campaign? Yes, it's possible.

I think a better bet is getting Trump for obstruction of justice.

Either way, the US needs to push back in a tough, meaningful way to stop them from fucking with our elections.

 

Dude has already taken down Trump and also has a near-fall.

This doesn't sound like a throwing-in-the-towel speech.

 

Flake follows Corker out the door. Pretty obvious he wasn't running again because he was willing to speak his mind and call out Trump for the unqualified moron he is.

What Bannon-backed, Roy Moore-style whackos will run for senate in Arizona and Tennessee?

Moore is a shoo-in to hold the Alabama seat.

But Dems could have a chance in Arizona and Tennessee if the republican candidates are Roy Moore-style crazy.

Dems need quality candidates in those races.

Meanwhile, Flake and Corker appear to be ready to battle Trump the rest of the way.

 

The bouts of conscience Corker and Flake are getting are all well and good, but the fact remains they're doing so because their opposition to the president is costing them their seats. That's not so well and good.

 

Investigating the dumbass internet conspiracy theory about uranium? Par for the course from that particularly dumbass corner of the House.

But continuing to make an enemy of the FBI? Yes please

 

This dingus apparently posed as a member of the media all morning until Trump entered the Capitol, and then threw a bunch of Russian flags at POTUS and McConnell while yelling about treason:

And to address the elephant in the room: Let's face it, McCain has one foot in the grave. Could Arizona get any redder?

People who live there could address this better than me ... but Arizona as a state — especially the Phoenix region — is a perfect example of the "two nations" phenomenon.

A huge group of (mostly white) older people moving there for the climate (both weather-wise and politically) and another huge group (majority non-white) working low-pay jobs to serve them.

Guess which group wins every election?

 

I'd call that fairly accurate. A lot of SoCal refugees in the mix as well.

 

I lived in Coconino County for eight years. It was the only blue county in the state. Not sure if that's ever changed. But Flagstaff is much more aligned politically and geographically with Colorado than it is with the rest of Arizona. Can't imagine that most of the Navajos are hardcore conservatives.

 

Hell, they're the only group that should be able to be Trumpists.

Their jobs really were taken by immigrants. There really was a conspiracy to kill off their race. They should've built a wall to keep the rest of us out. They make much of their money off casinos.
