President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Yes, it does...as any reasonable adult would fairly state.

Meanwhile, curious as to which one of these investigations do you find to be completely baseless?

 

I loved that book. Great cover art, too. I would imagine that Trump's garbage is rat heaven, except that King Idiot probably doesn't leave behind a lot of leftovers.

 

Whatever you think of Obamacare, it was an honest effort by President Obama to help these people. Even his detractors didn't doubt his sincerity. They doubted how we'd pay for it or its effectiveness (valid questions given the outcome). In fact, that's how it was attacked. Its naivete.

This is where the currency comes from. Trying vs. not trying. That means something to a lot of people. That's not coolness. That's called recognizing a human vs. non-human approach. It was Hoover vs. FDR all over again, with both sides left to argue over which was more effective while one approach won the hearts and minds of the country because it was HUMAN.

Otherwise you could say pre-ghost-visited Ebeneezer Scrooge is the most charitable man because he recognized the inevitable plight of the poor and didn't waste our time by trying to find a solution.

And maybe that's actually true. It's horrid to think, though.

 

I’m sure YF would say they’re all fake news.

 

Without reference to "liberal media," Trump is the one who made - and makes, daily - immigration the centerpiece of his campaign and his administration.

That a 7-year-old girl died in custody is news.

 

With all due respect, no. Obamacare was an honest effort to cover millions of uninsured people. It was not an honest effort to curb opioid deaths. Now, I do not agree with the argument that Obamacare has increased opioid deaths - and that's an argument out there - but, whatever rhetoric is out there, Obamacare was designed to do other things first.

 

The seven-year-old who passed away in CBP custody arrived at our southern border dehydrated, and water was made available to her and the other 160 immigrants, including a couple of dozen unaccompanied minors.

Whether jugs of water were or were not available on the U.S. side of the border had no bearing on her death.

 

It is. But Trump's not a murderer. Further, the statement put out after the fact was not "dripping with cruelty" as Chris Hayes suggested.

I picture Bill Clinton's garbage being a good source of the same. And, for that matter, southerner Al Gore.

 

Read what I quoted again. That paragraph had no reference to opioids. It was about the plight of rural Ohioans, West Virginians and Kentuckians.
