President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

 

The pathetic part is, I wrote a short Python script to do it.


post = "Considering that: 1) A very politically sensitive search warrant was issued, because it tangentially involves the president of the United States, and 2) It involved potential attorney-client privilege. ... one can only assume that the judge who issued that warrant was slapped in the face with probable cause that couldn't be ignored. Because at the very least, in that case, tie was going to go to the runner. Add to that the DA in in the Southern District ain't going to ruffle feathers (and this was someone Trump himself appointed after he acted like a shit stain with Preet Bharara), again, one can only assume that they had VERY good reason to believe there is criminal activity -- whatever it is they are looking for. A witch hunt would be if the fourth amendment wasn't adhered to. It's rich coming from a dolt who has expressed his desire to infringe on the rights of various people and groups like it is a bodily function for him. ... as if loyalty to him and whatever corruption and lies he steps into is more important than the rule of law. Now, we are actually seeing the rule of law in action (however the challenge that is coming plays out, and whatever they find in what they seized). ... and he is going to play the victim. Right."
newPost = ""
afterSpace = True
for word in post:
if word==" ":
newPost = newPost + word
afterSpace = True
elif afterSpace:
newPost = newPost + word.upper()
afterSpace = False

print(newPost.replace(" ", ""))

 

After I posted it, I went to Ragu's post and noticed the initials.

I originally thought they were just a bunch of random letters.

 

Remember when Republicans complained that Hillary was going to be too emotional to be president?

Yep.

 

Letterman was a horrible interviewer, though. At least if you grew up on Carson. Letterman was so focused on his line of questioning that he didn't listen enough. A guest's answer would often just hang in the air for a great follow-up question, but Letterman was already moving on to the next question in his head. He had plenty of great interviews anyway, but he was such an awkward interviewer that he stumbled all over himself.

 

Inside the West Wing with Trump enraged

• Until now, when storms hit, Trump could turn to Hope Hicks to explain things to him, suggest wording, simmer him down. With her departure from the White House, we saw the president working out his fury in real time.

• The source continued: "This is the first crisis post-Hope Hicks. ... This was different: I've never seen him like this before. ... This is the president you're going to see more of from here on out: unvarnished, untethered."

• Another source close to Trump said: "He takes the Russia stuff as a political hit job. This was a personal affront. This was the red line" of intrusion into personal financial matters.

 

His lines of questioning were often interesting and, when he wanted to be, challenging.

Fallon is a fawning kid. And if you’re the right politics Colbert isn’t going to do anything to ya.

 

Letterman was good with Trump because he had such contempt for him and Trump didn't notice/care because he was so excited to be on national TV.

 

Looking out for the little guy.

Under Trump, a voice for the American consumer goes silent

 

Letterman became a better interviewer after 9/11 and his heart surgery when he no longer worried about Leno and had more guests, musicians, characters, newsmakers, oddballs on whom he was interested in than people just plugging something.

However, as that Trump clip shows, he wasn't terrible in the old days and he also fed off the energy of the smaller but rowdier crowd at the old NBC show who loved Dave and were on his side in those interviews (not just responding to the applause sign like the crowd at the CBS show).
