President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

one day, in church, Little St. Don heard the priest speaking of someone named Jesus Christ, who was greater and more powerful than any one of us, paradoxically, through his very gentleness. Little St. Don, thinking deeply upon these things, reasoned thusly: “Gentle, sure, yeah, that’s great. Jesus sounds like a good guy. Pretty famous guy. Huh. Maybe kind of a wimp? Within our school, am I about as famous as Jesus was when alive? Now that he’s dead, sure, he’s super-famous. But, when alive, how did he do? Not so great, I bet. Anyway, I like Saviours who weren’t crucified.” - George Saunders, The New Yorker

 

A live look at Michael Cohen's bathroom mirror.

 

Surprised Guilfoyle is leaving Fox News to campaign with Don Jr. for the mid-terms. Won't she be more effective shilling from the set of her show?

 

I wonder if Putin met with Trump one-on-one for two hours and came away from the meeting with the personal understanding that Donald Trump is senile, or just mentally unstable.

I mean, it's pretty clear from the 2-minutes-at-a-time that we are exposed to him that he's one or the other. I suppose Putin walked away from his two hours one-on-one and realized the West is utterly fucked.

 

TMZ reporting Mueller has subpoenaed Kristin Davis a/k/a the Manhattan Madam. She has been associated with Roger Stone.

 

I don't think the tape of the discussion with Cohen will have any impact. Everybody knows what Trump is.
But it still hacks me off that the Christian right will never give him up but will continue to claim its moral superiority over the rest of us.

 

It has to be a crime for an attorney to record a client without the client's permission in most if not all states, right?

 

We are recording for quality control purposes

 

I believe more states allow one-party consent taping than don't.

 

Even between attorney and client?

 

Can’t remember for sure what our deadline was that night, 10:30 pm or 11, mountain time, but we did not get the final result and we cut it as close as possible looking for someone credible who’d called be race.

As I recall, it was called 20-30 minutes after we filed. So, 1-2 a.m. East Coast?
