    Considering who he is - I'm kind of suprised there haven't been any revelations about Trump's love life. Knowing how messed up this country is - people would either make a bigger stink about it than the Ukraine stuff, or play the "Clinton card" - and the evangelicals would still love him and blame Melania for not keeping him happy.

    That was an astonishing shitshow, even by his own scary standards.

    The end game. Begging and berating a reporter to ask the president of Finland a question, then not letting him answer.

    Who wasn't on the call with Ukraine's president?

    Good for that reporter trying to hang in there with the president of the United States harranging him like a bar thug.

    He asks a question (What did you want the president of Ukraine to do specifically, with regard to Joe Biden?). ... Trump gives 4 minutes of unadulterated, beligerent bullshit. And the reporter says (paraphrasing), "Back to my question, can you please answer what I actually asked you?" Followed by more beligerent, rambling mess.

    Here’s the thing — he has no desire to govern, he just loves to pick fights and spew shit. But the gravity that he has done something wrong/is in way over his head appears to be weighing on him hard.

    I believe it is the Roy Cohn idea that when you get caught being a dishonest slimeball, act beligerent and come out throwing punches at everyone and anyone to try to create a smokescreen.

    The problem is that honestly, Trump isn't even that good at it. The "Adam Schiff made up stuff" maybe had the legs for one tweet. It's a ridiculous mischaracterization of what happened, but fine. If that is going to be the entirety of his bullshit, though, he's getting impeached. Not even the unwashed masses are that complacent and stupid.

    My skepticism isn't so much for Bernie per se. It's more about where the hell were the Gang of 22 candidates then that we saw this year? Only three made it out of October 2015, and only two lasted past Iowa.

    In other words, he did everything but answer the question for him. And, yes, it was a helluva question.
