He offered to provide DACA support in exchange for the wall, but it was DACA support that he took away in the first place, so more hostage taking, more bad negotiating, more nothing. Trump keeps showing us what a crappy negotiator he is day by day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let the guy finish his term and throw him out if he's not liked. Civil Libertarians should be very concerned about the actions of .gov here. Trump hatred blinds folks to the deep problems in the alphabet agencies that, if anything, are worse than the abuses of J. Edgar and the Cold War Years.

If the facts of the case corresponded to the alt-right version of events you subscribe to, you might have a point. But they don't so you don't either.

Before everyone starts screaming about due process, she told me this somewhat tongue in cheek, but also sighed and said it was largely true. yep and corroboration is key ... in this case, there's plenty of that including straight from the donkey's mouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goferman Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 23 hours ago, keemapoot said: Actually, both of these scumbags have little credibility. The difference is that Cohen is facing serious prison time, and cooperating might reduce that, as we don't know what other charges he might be facing, so he has less reason to lie. If he lies, it does him no good. Trump has every reason to lie. Corroboration is the key. If other witnesses to the Special Counsel credibly support Cohen's statements then you know who to believe.

Good question even if it was added as a "gotcha", to score a point and get a few gold stars. BuzzFeed went beyond the pale with their twitter and other sm nonsense. That's the problem with the resistance, they are their own worst enemy. So Mueller Time just gave Buzz Feed a much needed bitch slap for their teenage locker room banter. Maybe they'll straighten up. Maybe not. We'll see. And what about Fox News? The propaganda it pumps out on a daily basis overshadows this slight. Or perhaps you suck it up which helps explain how any reasonable person could arrive at such conclusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave up counting Presidential lies after "I am not a crook", "I did not have sex with that woman", "you can keep your Insurance plan" and my favorite "I didnt know she was using a private server under a phoney name"... All paraphrased of course. So if President Trump says his hair is real and his talleywhacker is bigger than anyone elses in the world, I yawn and look at my marginal tax rate as well as the promises he has kept. You can keep count if its important to you and rage rage rage rage on a Board dedicated to life in Thailand. Me, Ill just vote in 2020.

I'll be eagerly awaiting this revelation..... as far as the ridiculous unfounded "conspired with Russians" blather, again provide factual verifiable references that can show this amazing feat that "stole" the election. await you factual data with references of the evidence and verifiable sources. not opinions fueled by irrational emotional reactions, but actual real proof to back up your post. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
