President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Note that Paul is going to Moscow to meet with Kosochev, who is under U.S. sanctions.

 

If they're going to eat American fast food over there, hopefully they banked American unionized wages for awhile beforehand.

 

Sad it took this long for platforms to stand up to the vile hatred and lies of Alex Jones. Sandy Hook wasn’t enough? Hope he loses every dime. But I’m sure his cult will follow wherever he ends up.

Of course, now we have QAnon and that bunch of nuts. Saw a brief clip of some true believers being interviewed a couple of days ago. Yikes.

 

I'm still holding out for the dream presidential ticket: Rand Paul/Ron Paul.

Well you can't have a centralized economy if your kommisars can't play favorites, now can you?

Watergate had tapes. Trump has tweets.

 

Manafort trial. Rick Gates takes the stand and admits the crimes that he plea bargained against, and then talks Manafort.
