President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

He's already blatantly attempted to interfere/obstruct Mueller. Basically committed the offense on live teevee.

To the extent, in fact, that Mueller pretty much has to hit Fucko with something big -- or it'll look like Mueller cowered and knuckled under.

 

It takes two-thirds of the senate - so as long as he has 34 in his pocket - he's fine. The up side of Trump decimating the GOP is that those left will absolutely dump an incumbent in a primary.

 

Gerrymandering is one of those things that work great until it doesn't. A real electoral swing and it costs you seats rather than holding them. Note: Not predicting such a thing, just that the idea it's an unbeatable scam is incorrect.

 

That's where the voter suppression kicks in to salvage things

 

That was funny

 

I demand impeachment!

 

One thing about Trump/Russia is that it is seldom boring. Who will break the big story this week, and what will it be?

Things are to the point that I expect to get a couple every week.

 

As our favorite residential righties always say ... you can't gerrymander a state. And voter suppression doesn't happen everywhere.

 

Trump's approval: How low can he go?

An interesting read. The takeaway is that barring a shift to the middle - or left - his approval/disapproval is likely to stay where it is. And figure a move to the middle would bring lesser approval from the right. It isn't even that's he's lost THAT much support, it's just that he's lost support in every sector and demographic.

 

Doesn't his pet snake count?

 

Does a toady count?
