President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

He is the president. You can delude yourself and throw tantrums about it like a child if you want. I would rather focus on what needs to be done to get him out of there, which is informing myself and others as best I can.

 

I don't understand why people continue to use that as a criticism. So you call him President Trump. Who the fuck cares? It's not like you're demanding I call him President Trump.

 

Trump wearing a mask keeps the Roger Stone story at 24 hours. We're on to the next thing already. Wow, the president is wearing a mask! On Sunday morning, someone in the administration will say something stupid, and that will be the next thing. We should still be talking about Russia putting bounties on the heads of U.S. soldiers, but we're always on to the next thing. Always.

 

Flooding the zone. The Gish Gallop.

 

Because the White House press corps can't stay disciplined.

They made Khashoggi a footnote in this.

 

Exactly. I tend to be very respectful of people's titles and I respect the office even though I don't respect the man at all. I would like to see people respect the office once he is going, so I think it is fair to respect it myself despite the despicable man who holds it right now.

That said, I certainly have no issue with others referring to him just by his last name or whatever other term they choose.

 

I will not feign any respect for "the man"

 

Nope. Here's an op-ed from Mueller re Stone.

You’ll really like the part when Aaron Burr becomes a spokesman for peanut butter.

 

Let me guess. He's concerned.

 

I want to know the line that broke him down to wear it.

Or it was a body double in a mask.
