Well, the racist president was informed at the magnitude of America deaths in Puerto Rico and his response was , Fantastic Job. Not an ounce of empathy or interest in the loss of life of fellow Americans.
Trump is truly a despicable racist! If this loss of life was in his favorite West Virginia he would lower the flags for a month and be holding more campaign rallies there.
Robert De Niro was right.
Just announced, the admin is now targeting passports of legal US (brown) citizens on the southern border including many who have served us in uniform. Between this and the recent insane posts regarding China and Hillary's email server (Benghazi, Benghazi, squirrel!!!!) I can only think that he's been made aware of some more impending bad news. C-mon Mueller. Please drop a deuce on this a##hat and his cabal, and forward as much as you can to SDNY, ASAP.

Rob,
I hope you'll pardon me saying that the watch doesn't mean an f-in thing. If a particular watch, or any other item, reminds you of the horour then that's all that's matters. Resale or any other consideration is immaterial to me. Ultimately, of course, it's your own thought process that rules the day.

Trump now claiming his taped TV interview with Lester Holt is not what he said and that NBC somehow changed his answer which of course, is proof he obstructed justice.
The reality TV fake president will soon learn the justice department is not reality TV.
Duty, Honor, Country. I’m not sure McCain’s voice has ever been heard as loudly as it has this past week.

Amazing disparity between McCain and many current politicians. Looking forward to W & Obama's eulogies.

A true hero indeed. With the good sometimes comes the bad.
and then the good.
Sarah P and the Prez were on the "Unvitation"
Rahm Emanuel 2020?
Trump’s own inside team take on Trump,
Idiot, unhinged. Understanding of a 5th or 6th grader. F’ing liar and will end up in an orange jumpsuit if he meets with Mueller. This from three people within his own inter circle.
Inter circle hid and removed items from presidents desk to keep him from signing documents. Got to protect the country.
Then, his OWN lawyers meet with Mueller and advise Mueller that Trump is incapable of telling the truth. He just makes things up Trump’s lawyers advise Mueller.

And now those senior staff are coming out one by one to deny they said or did any of that. No points for guessing who I believe! The fun is just beginning!

Unlikely. His approval rating in Chicago is under 50%.
I've always purposely avoided looking at this topic. Imagine my surprise to discover that it appears to be the only thread in which political discussions are allowed. Good.
PS, the great Frederick Wiseman's 2017 film Ex Libris: The New York Public Library is a must see on PBS.

Yeah, mostly a rhetorical question. But I’m pretty sure in a face to face debate, Rahm would have no problem telling the orange one to go f*** himself.
Have the Book on order

Trump's lawyers should be careful about what communications they share with Mueller or they are going to find themselves disbarred.
Save the Orca's!

That is the theory since it is an unusual word that Pence uses a lot. But someone like Coats or, apparently (via Bill Kristol guessing) — though I don’t know much about him — Kevin Hassett, seems more likely.
I’m guessing Jared.
My money is on Ivanka or Melania. The latter must be paid to be married to the buffoon.

Interesting. I’ll have to read the whole thing to see how plagiarized it looks.

I think that's a very good guess, though more likely someone largely unknown to the masses like me.

Is he even allowed in the Oval Office for anything but signature photo ops?

It’s a bit tiring going back and forth with some people here. A lot of this is a bunch of crap. Mattis and Kelly come out and deny and the media still reports as fact.
And the Dems at the Kavanaugh hearing are a complete embarrassment. They apparently don’t mind looking like idiots! Cory Booker is a giant A-hole. I read the documents that were released and they are actually quite favorable for the Judge.
During these hearings and previous SC nomination hearings, it’s clear why I am a Republican. These Dems are a bunch of clowns asking him to recuse himself....just a joke! Morons!
Feinstein has a Chinese spy working for her for 20 years and crickets! Double standard hypocritical group of hacks. There are a few people with integrity and they shine through.
I really like Ben Sasse.

your grasp of historical facts seem to be a bit off

i will also add that if you listened to past supreme court hearings not named goursch, you'll find a forward, enlightening and at times engaging discussion. It's a shame that this country under such poor leadership has devolved into a fucken reality tv show. This falls squarely on the orange buffoon.
Feinstein didn't know she had a chinese spy working for her, and when the FBI alerted her on the situation, she fired him. Compared to someone who discredits our nations intelligence and asks a hostile foreign power to interrogate our citizens.
Re: the Op-Ed piece, it's very telling when people feel obligated to say "It wasn't me".
Napa is correct, the SC hearings are a joke. The fact that they are trying to push this clown through without proper vetting, document releasing, and lack of transparency in answering questions being asked, is alarming.
Changing topics for a second..... The internet has this story about Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann on Gilligan's Island. Apparently, she was ill, is 79, has no assets, lots of debt, including debt to the IRS, and she has established a "go fund me" page to try to get back on her feet, monetarily speaking.
I don't understand why she can't just get a loan from Thurston Howell, III.
Speaking of GoFundMe. I'm amazed and the number of GoFundMe requests for basically every day stuff. I've seen several lately, even some from people I know, wanting money to help pay their child care expenses, rent, elective eye surgery, you name it.
Recently GoFundMe request for money to oppose project firm's client was developing -
GO FUND ME:
There is some, but not that much, oversight of charities. They have to register, file reports and disclose how much their overhead is, etc. Go Fund Me doesn't seem have ANY oversight.
This bothers me.
I can see the Walter White's of the world cleaning their money through Go Fund Me.

I saw that too. She apparently had some bad medical issues and other expenses that ate up most of her money. When you are 79, it's kind of difficult to make more, unless you are Stan Lee.
I hope she will be OK. Mary Ann was the quintessential cute "girl next door" on GI.

How do you hear about these gofundme requests other than a news report. There is almost nothing I would donate to other than a reputable charity like St. Jude's for example.
The internet just creates an easier way to beg than standing on the street with a cup.
As a side note, Obama's speech today at the University was disgusting and completely lacks Presidential protocol.
Yes I am aware of the current President in office.
