President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

"The FBI, chico, they always lie." --Trumpy Montana

 

Ubu was the dog from Letterman's end credits. "Pere" is father, so...

 

This is the sort of parsing of sources that leaves many of us skeptical of your truthfulness.

 

I think that even when he preps he still says whatever pops into his fore-brain.

 

Abbott-
Everything about Miller screams overcompensation.
He falls just short of bragging about his conquests of women, unlike his boss who does so and has to pull out his wallet to have intercourse.
Miller appears more obsessed with hauling off Mexicans in paddywagons.

You guys laugh, but "lies, damned lies and statistics" show it to actually have merit.

Case in point: Many years ago, during Bush43, Hannity made the following "factual" statement when people were picking on the president about the economy:

"The average unemployment rate under Bush is lower than it was under Clinton."

And it was! But . . .

. . . that's because Clinton STARTED with the 7.4 left to him by Bush41. He eventually got it to 3.9, but his "average" was compromised by those 7s and 6s the first 12-18 months of his administration.
Bush43, on the other hand, STARTED with Clinton's 3.9. And even though it eventually grew to 7.3 in 2008, his "average" was indeed smaller than Clinton's.

The right LOVED Hannity's fact. The left was frustrated because "Dammit, I KNOW the economy was better under Clinton!"

Facts are, indeed, in the eyes of the beholder.

 

Letterman or "Family Ties?"

Everyone knows the end of Letterman is World. Wide. Pants.

Duh.

 

For years the Left blasted W and the Republicans for the WMD mess. Brennan was the deputy executive director of the CIA pushing that narrative. He was the Terrorist Threat Integration Center, going through data that went to W, information that was used to invade Iraq.

For years the Left blasted W for that war. Now the guy is making money using his clearance, and Trump is the bad guy for revoking.

If Trump came out against oxygen, I think many on the left would prohibit themselves from breathing.

 

Wut?

 

The Left is sidling up to a number of characters with questionable pasts.

I don't mind the hypocrisy so much. A douchebag like Trump will always make allies of strange bedfellows.
Only Trump could 'unite' people like Fart and Oop.
