President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Are you seriously going to focus on the marginalia and ignore what the transcript says? If so, then you too have sold out your allegiance to America and the Constitution and are just as un-American.

 

Privately, the president had often talked about fortifying a border wall with a water-filled trench, stocked with snakes or alligators, prompting aides to seek a cost estimate. He wanted the wall electrified, with spikes on top that could pierce human flesh. After publicly suggesting that soldiers shoot migrants if they threw rocks, the president backed off when his staff told him that was illegal. But later in a meeting, aides recalled, he suggested that they shoot migrants in the legs to slow them down. That’s not allowed either, they told him.

“The president was frustrated and I think he took that moment to hit the reset button,” said Thomas D. Homan, who had served as Mr. Trump’s acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, recalling that week in March. “The president wanted it to be fixed quickly.”

Aside from the semantics of global politics, we are agree with the remaining list of total foreign policy failures

 

Say what you want about the Clinton's (I have always found Bill to be a total dick) but there has never been a political family put under a microscope like they have. So fuck every Republican alive today.

 

Meanwhile, back at Rancho Republican

 

Christian Family Values.

 

Death by prolonged torture on national television is the only just fate for Trump.

 

Disgraced and penniless is my hope.

 

Two Guantanamo, that's the whole ballgame.

 

W!T!F!
