Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Bloomberg is donating $50,000,000 today to Johns Hopkins for cancer research in junction with a total of $125,000,000 donation to fund immuneology cancer cures.

He's already donated 1,200,000,000.00 to Hopkins. Trump? Doesn't believe in cancer. Only likes people who aren't sick

 

And there's video of the campaign manager grabbing the reporter - something he denied doing.

 

In many ways, that just doesn't matter.

Is it simplistic? Sure.

But, is bringing home troops from Japan, and Korea, and letting those nations pay for their own defense a losing issue? Really?

It's to the left of Hillary, for one thing. And, it sounds pragmatic, not "crazy".

Telling the Saudis that they can go fuck themselves isn't a losing issue either. Again, to the left of Hillary. We're fighting proxy wars on behalf of the House of Saud. If we're going to continue to do that, the Saudis should either put up some troops, or put up some money.

Instead, they fund Madrasas in Pakistan and fundamentalist Mosques in America. They export Wahhabism.

The public is not going to be offended by Trump standing up to the Saudis.

And, when folks like Andrea Mitchell have an on air meltdown about how stupid Trump ideas are they show how out of touch they are.

No one -- on the left or the right -- outside of the beltway establishment, and the folks paid to ensure these policies are left in place, is in favor of the status quo.

 

The Times interview also supposedly included a huge "gotcha" on how stupid Trump is about foreign policy.

Trump was criticizing our deal with Iran, coupled with the fact that Iran just bought a fuckload of Airbus planes.

The Times was quick, and proud, to point out that due to sanctions still in place, Iran cannot buy Boeing planes. Gotcha!!

How dumb is Trump??

Well, how dumb is it that we did this big deal with Iran, and gave them back billions of dollars, and did not include a provision, and a waiver of the sanctions to allow it, forcing them to purchase planes from Boeing?

It's absurd. It's exactly the kind of weak deal Trump talks about, and the media thinks they just made him look stupid.

 

Very.

“Perhaps she made the story up. I think that’s what happened.”

 

Wasn't it Jeb's Turn™ this year?

The party is in absolute disarray. So much so that no one's talking about the very real and possibly disastrous rift forming in the other party.

 

The rift in the Democratic party isn't even one-tenth as severe as the one between Obama and Clinton supporters in '08. They managed to patch that one up without much trouble.

 

People who struggled to formulate opinions pre-Internet want to tell me how dumb Trump is.

 

Gee, the Obama-Clinton rift was competitive, not ideological.

Plus, Hillary is not even 1/100th as likable or unifying as Obama is.

Look more closely at the Bernie Bros. I'm telling you - they mean business. Dangerously ignorant business, but business nonetheless.

 

Donald Trump’s campaign manager was just arrested and charged with battery

 

Pick up your bong and fight for this country!

 

Don't ever change.
