Trump is on a person's mind and when asked whether it's Trump or Biden they say Trump! Then they ask "what was the question:? It's only Rasmussen which is not surprising because it's basically a junk poll meant to give Republicans talking points. In the last midterms, it said Republicans were up by 1 point in the popular vote for the House races. They lost by 8 points. And lost 40 seats. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's because she is one of those career state department employees whose only loyalty is to the constitution. I must admit like one of those US Embassy employees that I bad mouthed when they stopped issuing the Income Affidavits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becker Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Link: Republican congressman calls new details about Trump revealed in impeachment testimony 'alarming' "A Republican member of one of the House committees involved in the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump said Sunday that information provided about Trump during a closed-door deposition of a former National Security Council official "is alarming" and "not OK." "Well, of course, all of that is alarming. As I've said from the beginning, I think this is not OK. The President of the United States shouldn't even in the original phone call be on the phone with the president of another country and raise his political opponent," Rep. Mike Turner, an Ohio Republican, told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Trump draws his power from cutting through all the BS and saying it like it is. Theres a huge demand for it these days...it's called authenticity. The only downside to it is you don't always choreograph your words... and Trump has said things that have sounded unpolished. Have you seen Obama talk without a teleprompter...he sounds terrible.

Not a word said by the MSM about such blatant political 'intimidation' either - I wonder why?? You're right, in essence....however some will say he only fired all political appointee ambassadors and left the career foreign service personnel alone.

Big difference. And they received a grace period, see your articles, as was custom until Trump came in. Grace period makes sense so replacements can be readies, something Trump did not need obviously. You have a serious issue seeing Steven.

Sorry to see you forgot to read this " The mandate — issued “without exceptions,” according to a terse State Department cable sent on Dec. 23, diplomats who saw it said — threatens to leave the United States without Senate-confirmed envoys for months in critical nations like Germany, Canada and Britain. In the past, administrations of both parties have often granted extensions on a case-by-case basis to allow a handful of ambassadors, particularly those with school-age children, to remain in place for weeks or months. " or " “When you have people out there whose only reason for being an ambassador is their political connection to the outgoing president of a different party, it’s pretty logical to say they should leave,” said Mr. Neumann, a career Foreign Service officer who held ambassadorships in Algeria, Bahrain and Afghanistan. “But I don’t recollect there was ever a guillotine in January where it was just, ‘Everybody out of the pool immediately.’” " Edited November 18, 2019 by stevenl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im glad you corrected yourself to admit obama didnt sack all ambassadors. how this is in any way relevant to what trump did is a mystery. all he needed to do was fire her. He didnt, giuliano ran a campaign against her using dodgy characters whose claims have been debunked. The ambassador was known for fighting corruption. Trump doesnt want his own corruption investgated. so he doesnt just fire her as he can, he makes up a dodgy story then smears her good name in public, an ambassador who has biparisan support for her great work during both repub and dem admins. i know who is more believable and it isnt truthful don with 13000 lies in 3 years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why that is - eh?? Do it yourself - google it - not so easy to find anything negative about Obama or anything positive about Trump. And yet the truth is there if one is willing to just look a little deeper. Both sides of any political debate are right and both sides are wrong. But some things are self-evidently true. WAPO and NYT are biased towards Obama and biased against Trump. Yeah...I wonder why that is? An incoming president, replacing part of the personal, the president before him hired! Can't quiet figure it out....hmmm...I guess, I remains a mystery, why this is not frontpage news! One question, though: Did he also smear all of them and question their job- performance or work- ethics? No? Seems, that is not a common thing to do, unless...you are a little child, like....ahm...hmmmm...can't think of anyone, right now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopDeadSenter Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Well, well, well. Couple of months down the road. Impeachment fiasco never mentioned any more. Hardly a surprise. It's as if they can trash Trumps first few years in office with the mother of all hoaxes, and then just take a mulligans. Your ball went into the lake Ralph, don't worry play another ball no harm done. And their star witness, remember, the most credible witness, Marie Yovanovitch. Well, turns out she was lying. You just couldn't begin to make this stuff up. These impeachers will have a whole lot of worry on their plate now the worm has turned. Ex-Ukraine Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch may have lied to Congress about her knowledge of Burisma Holdings — with new documents revealing she received direct warnings about the Ukrainian gas company despite claiming to know little about it, according to a new report. https://nypost.com/2020/05/15/yovanovitch-may-have-misled-congress-over-burisma-knowledge/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
