President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

I didn't even criticize him in that post. None of his critics (well, I have to except Star) are as mean to Trump as the people who work for him are off the record. It is the most telling evidence he's got nothing but dirtbags around him. They lack even the most basic elements of loyalty.

 

I've made it pretty clear how I feel about Trump, but that's not a strong argument. Yates was always going to be replaced once Sessions was confirmed and normally Preet would have been a goner, except that Trump had apparently previously told him he would stick around. There was no way that Preet was ever going to be allowed to stay in that high profile job.

Comey, on the other hand . . .

 

Don't you know that all liberals are exactly the same? One monolithic intelligence playing at being individuals.

Or maybe that is just the mindset of lazy, partisan fanboys like YF and QWFOS.

 

Well now you've done it ... EVERYTHING Trump does and has done PROVES how RIGHT the libs were about him. I mean, fuck, did you see the color of the pen he signed that EO with? And here you are poo-pooing the dismissals of Yates/Preet. Soon some leftys here will be wishing a fiery death on you.

 

"A lot has been made about the role of career professionals — what I call the permanent government, what Steve Bannon might label the deep state — in helping an impulsive, inexperienced, often fact-free, tweet-driven president to govern effectively. Today's events suggest that may require more bureaucratic courage than we may have anticipated, indeed perhaps more bureaucratic courage than the bureaucracy can routinely muster."

Optics, man. Optics. Perception becomes reality.

 

Does Comey's dismissal eliminate the possibility of his being jailed for violating the Hatch Act? Asking for @Starman ...

 

Yeah, but powerless libtards on post crazy things on Twitter. So the entire American left is the real unhinged threat to democracy.

 

Who's we? And how do they get shouted down with full force in the future?

 

No civil rights for white people, etc. @Michael_ Gee's got it all planned out.

 

Boy it's a good thing this didn't happen the week Melissa McCarthy is hosting SNL.....
