Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

The conclusions of the article you linked: We don't have a clue, but we think these restrictions are bad so we're going to use some bad math to make it sound as if they could have made a difference.

 

Gotta admire his devotion to "the cause," right?

 

Newly released State Department emails help reveal how a major Clinton Foundation donor was placed on a sensitive government intelligence advisory board even though he had no obvious experience in the field, a decision that appeared to baffle the department’s professional staff.

The emails further reveal how, after inquiries from ABC News, the Clinton staff sought to “protect the name” of the Secretary, “stall” the ABC News reporter and ultimately accept the resignation of the donor just two days later.

 

He's like that guy Joe Johnston encountered post-Civil War who proclaimed that the South had been "beaten but not subdued." Johnston asked him what command he'd been under and the guy admitted he hadn't been in service at all. "Well, sir, I was," Johnston said. "You may not be subdued, but I am."

 

This just might be the nail in her political coffin. Yep, I bet this one will be the end.

 

Neither is Trump.

 

You know that the FBI thing isn't going anywhere when they recycle a 2012 scandal that they tried to smear Obama with.

 

Haven't you heard? Every district won by a Republican was "gerrymandered."

 

Fire up the Supression Seeker!!!

 

Three Obama approval rating polls came out today: +9, neutral, and -6.

 

I have an in-law who fancies himself a politics expert. Recently he was bemoaning all of this gerrymandering leading to all these Republican governors and U.S. senators. I didn't have the heart to ask him how that was possible.

 

Two things:
1. Voter idenfication. What is wrong with showing a photo ID with a voter registration card, or putting a photo on a voter registration card we're already supposed to have? Why is that racist rather than a focused attempt to prohibit what would seem to be a very easy voter fraud?
2. Obama's Fallon appearance. I remember Reagan, Clinton, Bush, all doing the late night circuit as sitting presidents. Never did I recall it being anything other than light comedy and at least an attempt to keep it from being overpoliticized. That last night, even to the most biased liberal, had to look like a political advertisement.
