Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: meself Date: 03 Dec 17 - 11:29 AM While I'm happy to see chump's tweets used against him, I really don't think that if he says something like "I fired him because he lied to the FBI" we should think that that means anything beyond "blah, blah, blah". It's just noise from someone who can't stop making noise. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: gillymor Date: 03 Dec 17 - 11:31 AM Of course they're denying it. On CBS this morn they reported that the WH claimed it was drafted by one of his lawyers. If that's the case his counsel is as dumb as he is. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Jeri Date: 03 Dec 17 - 12:30 PM He will continue to "stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody" and not "lose any voters." He will do this until his voters start getting shot. His followers are common-sense stupid, and possibly insane (but that doesn't much matter). Republican are boned. This rush-through-before-anybody-can-read-it tax bill may be the final nail. After being stationed in the ROK twice, I've wondered what it would take for them to ask the US to leave. This pissing contest with Kim might be it. Trump can walk on the edge of war because it wouldn't touch him if he jumped off. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: meself Date: 03 Dec 17 - 02:23 PM I don't know - if I were a leader of the ROK, I think I would want as many Americans there as possible - it's likely having hostages - |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 03 Dec 17 - 02:40 PM Korea sounds like tough posts Jeri. Constitutionally Trump is bruised but not critically wounded. Politically he is dead ONLY if Dems get the House and Senate back. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Greg F. Date: 03 Dec 17 - 05:43 PM Politically he is dead ONLY if Dems get the House and Senate back. Not so - he's only really dead when his "racist, xenophobic, feeble-minded","semi-literate", "common-sense stupid, and possibly insane" followers are dead as well. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 04 Dec 17 - 05:45 AM I hope not. You know 1/2 of Americans know for a fact the sun circles the Earth. As the long standing policy of favoring educating only the wealthy continues, the dumbing down trend will only get worse. New tax policy will make a masters degree more than 20,000 dollars more expensive for anyone. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 04 Dec 17 - 06:49 AM Media is being coy. They are asking Why did the Trump team lie and why were the Russian sanctions their biggest issue? I reported a year ago the answer to those questions. It was the multi trillion dollar deal to open the 63 million square mile Siberian oil fields to Exxon drilling. Who bought the secret 20% share of the Russian State oil company? If Mueller can prove it was a Trump consortium, the government may not want America to know the true scope of this treason. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 04 Dec 17 - 07:24 AM Russian oil is the source of the original Koch fortune. Koch the father opened oil fields for Joe Stalin. This was the capital the Koch bros used to create their empire today. It appears Trump has failed to become a permanent oil magnate. He may have to sell his Russian holdings to cover his losses. Or Rex Tillerson seals the deal by having Trump successfully withdrawal all Russian sanctions. Not gonna happen. Congress has not allowed it. Trump is understandably pissed. It has been particularly hard for Trump to be the criminal mastermind. That Award goes to Putin. Despicable |
Subject: RE: : TALIBAN Trump From: Donuel Date: 04 Dec 17 - 09:15 AM The Taliban loves to destroy archeological sites - SO DOES TRUMP Bear Ears National Monument Park in Utah may be reduced by 75% which will leave Hopi and Navaho ancient sites open to desecration. Trump is smug that he is doing something President Jackson would like. At the last attack on National Monument Parks Joe seemed to be on the other side of the fence from my opinion. I wonder if he is still. Trump thinks giving lands of Ancient Indians away is like taking candy from babies. We will see. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 05 Dec 17 - 12:30 PM I heard prophetic words 55 years ago Those words I have found again here https://www.mprnews.org/story/2013/11/25/mpr_news_presents 53 minutes You now know who and what has shaped my identity and politics all my life since I first heard this when I was an impressionable 10 year old I entrust this thread to the big 5 who have chronicled Trump best of all. Thank you. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Greg F. Date: 06 Dec 17 - 10:58 AM Hope the brain-dead working stiffs who voted for this piece of shit are happy with this: Trump Plans To Kill Regulation Protecting Restaurant Servers It's illegal for employers to take tips from employees. But, the Department of Labor (DOL) is proposing a new rule that would allow employers to take their workers' tips as long as they earn at least minimum wage.[Huffington Post, AP, et. al.] And, I guarantee the same idiots STILL support him and would vote for him again. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 06 Dec 17 - 12:48 PM Everything in those prophetic words has come true from the showmanship sale of the Presidency to the selfish me based patriotism and a foundation of violence that demands my way or the grave. Today Congress responded to the Vegas and most recent church mass shootings. Laws to preserve background check loopholes and expanded gun carry rights are approved. Bump stocks are relegated to a two year inquiry and investigation before anything can be decided. Declaring capitols of foreign countries for embassies or redistricting quarters of Jerusalem is not an American first policy. Jared might give the Christian quarter the Armenian quarter and share half the Muslim quarter with the Jewish quarter. It depends upon the spin of the wheel of misfortune. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Steve Shaw Date: 06 Dec 17 - 01:12 PM Trump now seems to be ratcheting up tensions in the Middle East by "recognising Jerusalem as the capital of Israel." Apart from the extreme controversy surrounding that issue which I'm not getting into, it is a blundering and stupid step to take and could harden the stalling of the peace process. Well, unless there isn't really a peace process at all... |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Greg F. Date: 06 Dec 17 - 01:31 PM So Trump is a complete and utter fuckwit. This is NEWS??? But hey, he's got a 45% approval rating. Trump is NOT the problem. His brain-dead supporters and gutless wonder Republicans are the problem. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: SPB-Cooperator Date: 07 Dec 17 - 07:17 AM His one trick seems to be not giving a toss about the other 6 billion people on the planet, or the planet itself. I am guessing that the risk of escalating carnage in the middle east is a price worth paying to further support/funding from pro-trump/republican lobbyists. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 07 Dec 17 - 07:24 AM Cooperator, I am surprised Jim Carrol has not shared his thoughts of this Jerusalem issue. What does it mean for the old city? The Dome of the Rock? The Armenian quarter? the Muslim quarter? |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Jim Carroll Date: 07 Dec 17 - 08:39 AM "Jim Carrol has not shared his thoughts of this Jerusalem issue." Apart from one posting I've tended to avoid this issue for fear of drawing the trolls from under their bridge I think this mindless intervention goes far beyond the local effects and is now encompassing the whole of the Muslim world - the immediacy of their response must have broken the world speed record. It's just been announced that violent protests have broken out in Gaza and Bethlehem and Hamas has called for another intifada. Time for to call in the marines and dust off the B52s PROTESTS Jim Carroll |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: robomatic Date: 07 Dec 17 - 11:14 AM I want to thank Donuel for providing this one thread for much of the Trump invective. It is a useful effort to keep other threads from disintegrating into many divisive petty battles. And this thread hasn't been all that bad. I didn't want to add heat unnecessarily so here is my contribution. I think there is a great likelihood that we, in this thread, disagree on the Jerusalem issue but we can agree that the delivery of the Trump 'message' on this issue is calculated to divide, not unite, and confuse, not enlighten. He has a gift for sowing chaos and keeping a constant attaboy refrain from his very own Amen Corner. And keeping a never-ending chorus of outrage from multiple corners. He can keep on doing this, he thinks, as long as his Amen Corner is united and his outraged opponents are uncoordinated. One of the many troubles of the times is that he is not providing any real useful leadership services in the meantime. We are not getting anything we can build on. The key to surviving him is to 'keep calm and carry on' with a consistent message of rational thought and judgment, EVEN and ESPECIALLY through our disagreements. If you can viddy "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" one of Rod Serling's Twilight Zone episodes you'll get the picture. But let us not forget that Donald Trump is not playing with a full deck. In the end, he won't have been good for ANYBODY. This thread has been moderated to keep it on topic; trolling has not been tolerated. The Israel question has been addressed sufficiently. ---mudelf |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 08 Dec 17 - 01:18 PM Everywhere I have lived (or posted) have an aspect of Maple Street. Not only a favorite episode, Rod Serling was a favorite neighbor in Binghamton and Interlaken NY. when they had twin Irish Setters, then at the very end in Rochester. Maple St reminds me how fear makes us more tribal than we need to be. |

Trump has no way to pardon Flynn because of the way Mueller made the plea bargain on federal, state AG and local jurisdiction. *no really, to the best of my recollection I do not recall under executive and lawyer client privilege THAT won't work wha...Then I'll take the 5th.

Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Greg F. Date: 09 Dec 17 - 05:17 PM Well, this explains a great deal - bullshit in, bullshit out: Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One during his trip to Asia last month, Trump dismissed the idea that he has time for the tube. "People that don't know me, they like to say I watch television, people with fake sources. You know, fake reporters, fake sources. But I don?t get to watch much television. Primarily because of documents. I'm reading documents." But Trump spends up to 8 hours in front of the TV each day, according to a new report. "Around 5:30 each morning, President Trump wakes and tunes into the television in the White House's master bedroom," the Times reports. "There's a 60-inch TV in the White House dining room that Trump keeps an eye on during meetings." No one is allowed to touch the remote except him and technical staff. And if he misses an important segment, he watches it later on what he calls his "Super TiVo" - Fox News, Jeanine Pirro, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Fox and Friends... |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 10 Dec 17 - 09:53 AM Trump did a Roy Moore Rally Trump tweeted the morning after his rally in Pensacola, Fla. “Need your vote to Make America Great Again! Jones will always vote against what we must do for our Country.” These guys should be on the naughty list although Moore may be on a registry. snl note to reporters; do you think anyone doubts that Roy Moore watches Young porn? Look for RollsRoy69 |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Stilly River Sage Date: 10 Dec 17 - 09:55 AM From last week, Kelleyanne Conway discussed Trump's "high moral standards." And that's why he supports Moore, in a state that (as one of the Twitter remarks this week said) would evidently prefer to elect a GOP pedophile over a Democratic district attorney. We shall see on Tuesday. |
Subject: RE: BS: Trump is a one trick pony From: Donuel Date: 11 Dec 17 - 05:04 PM When I was a kid, people in the deep south had a saying in a slow drawl that excused every cruelty, every sin and every depravity: "Well that's just their way". Trump's slurred speech lately may be a new denture that is too thick or it could be an ischemic stroke. It's not a dry mouth. The nonsensical patter is a degree worse however. |
