Re: The Trump Presidency Thread
This quote from a CNN article left me scratching my head:
Whoever hasn't "called into question his credibility on a whole range of issues" by now is either willfully ignorant or a complete moron.
Ummm OK. So after the nearly daily easily disprovable bald-faced lies Trump tells, *this* is going to be the one that changes the party's mind? Yeah right.By issuing such a blanket denial, Trump leaves himself very little wiggle room. In order for Trump to emerge unscathed, there can be no evidence that emerges that props up Comey's side of the story. Anything that shows Trump was not being entirely truthful with his "no, no, next question" response calls into question his credibility on a whole range of issues and could well lead to open revolt from within his own party.
Whoever hasn't "called into question his credibility on a whole range of issues" by now is either willfully ignorant or a complete moron.

It's not great, and only rhymes if you don't think about it, but it's all I got.
The rest of your poem was fantastic, btw.

Re: The Trump Presidency Thread
Sorry, I'm still trying to catch up with everything. I didn't realize the McCarthy/Ryan conversation that was recorded happened a year ago. I knew it wasn't recent, but I didn't realize just how old it was. That means someone has been holding on to this the whole time and just waiting to release it. I'd think it could also means they have other things recorded - meetings or discussions that were taking place between June and let's say January of this year. If there's even a remotely possibility of that being true, I'd imagine there are some pretty nervous people right now and that this whole thing is much larger and broader than anyone currently realizes. I guess the current thinking is the recordings were possibly from Evan McMullin...former CIA agent McMullin. I can only imagine what a former CIA agent would do if he was around politicians intimating that Russian money and influence was flowing into the U.S. political process.Skinypupy wrote:The plot thickens...

But she has branded it as her achievement in line with her faux-feminist image. By Trump logic, it's blood money however it's used.

Re: The Trump Presidency Thread
You can always count on Trump being Trump:
President Donald Trump sought to rebut claims Monday that he damaged Israeli intelligence capabilities by revealing highly classified information to Russian operatives earlier this month.
"Just so you understand, I never mentioned the word or the name Israel," Trump said ahead of a bilateral session with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Trump is accused of disclosing the information during an Oval Office session with the Russian foreign minister and the Russian ambassador to the United States on May 10. The information centered on attempts by terrorist groups to load bombs into laptops in an attempt to blow up airliners.
The accusations, however, never suggested that Trump told his Russian visitors that the information came from Israel. Instead, the information Trump revealed is thought to have been so specific that its origin was clear.
Standing alongside Netanyahu on Monday, Trump nearly escaped answering questions about the intelligence dust up. He appeared to walk away from his Israeli counterpart before shaking hands, and then returned to finish the photo-op.
In a chaotic moment, reporters began shouting questions about the matter, leading to aides urgently trying to remove the press from the room.
Trump himself quelled the frenzy, extending his hands to to quiet the shouting and declaring, twice, that he didn't mention Israel in his conversation with the Russians.
