Not quite unbelievable, but leaning in that direction.

Goes along with the push to eliminate child labor laws.

Trump’s accusations are all confessions of his personal guilt and culpability. He’s the kind of moron who only misuses pronouns, especially when his ass is hanging out. It is a condition he suffers from more and more acutely with every passing day.

I sure hope Trump follows through on his threat to sue Schiff and other leading dems!

Bubble babies, back in diapers, go, “Wah, wah, wah”.

No need to read Kiid or Red’s posts till the dumbass is deposed.

To a fragile narcissist with a hammer, his head looks like a nail.

Don’t get hammered like trump.

How you gonna trust the police when you can’t trust the police?

Yes, that killing is what led to the stupid Bambi post.

Nah, my post was in response to what I saw on Law and Order.
Girl in toilet getting terrorised by killer.
If only she'd had a gun, knew how to uses it, had it strapped on and ready to fire at a moment's notice.

Never call the cops.
This is what can happen.
Arm yourself to the teeth and deal with things yourself...better off.

White Aussie woman called the cops, thought she could save someone...Black cop shot her dead.

Now the above killing appears on my computer news;

Indeed.

You can stand on "if we hadn't left the Turks would not have come in" - but that was not this president's belief.

So the “president” believed that a “nato ally” was going to attack despite the presence of US troops in the region conducting a mission vital to our interests and that there was nothing the man elected to be the President of the United States of America could do about it but retreat?

I mean, we all knew Trump’s tough guy thing was an act, but for a Trumpist to so casually concede the point is telling.

The discovery process will be hilarious.

[NeedsAdjustments]

Maybe they were

But we have a country to run.

I would love to hear what compelling national interest you think justified stabbing the Kurds in the back.

Still waiting to hear a response.

After news that we managed to secure two high value ISIS detainees out of dozens before Trump's retreat.  Two.

And he justifies sending 1,800 troops to Saudi Arabia to protect their oil fields because they are paying "us."

[NeedsAdjustments]

For over eighteen hours now we have known about a disgusting video that depicts Trump violently committing mass murder against perceived political and media enemies.  We now know that not only was this video shown at a meeting of Trump supporters at his resort, it was produced by a right-wing web producer who attended the White House Social Media Summit and met with the "president."

And yet the man who is the subject of the film and who live tweets FOX News has thus far declined to disavow it.

And next time there is a credible threat from a supporter against a media organization or political foe of Trump, kiidcarter8 will deny his "president" bears any responsibility for this.

Every time you think they can't go lower...now they've got hold of that digging machine in the Jules Verne novel.  I join with Needs in committing to always deploy quote marks around president or potus.

Conway's well researched article on Trump's personality and mental and emotional fitness, also delving into the Constitution's provisions for dealing with violations of public trust, cognitive breakdown, and so on.   A long read that puts it all together well and makes you wonder how the holy hell are he and Kelly Anne a couple.   

For those of you here who have "looked away," it may be worth your while to let George peel away some of the veils for you.

And now the Kurds are turning to Damascus and Moscow for help with the Turkish invasion.  Putin just keeps winning, with minimal effort on his part.  He must be thinking that election tampering money he appropriated three years ago was best money he ever spent.  As Julia Davis wrote in the Daily Beast,

“Trump is moving down Putin’s wish list, fulfilling the Kremlin’s aims at a rapid pace. He is chipping away at U.S. sanctions against Russia, deepening America’s internal divisions on the basis of race, faith, sexual orientation and political affiliation, vocally undermining confidence in our elections, intelligence agencies and institutions, all the while empowering our foreign adversaries and undermining NATO alliances. Trump’s claims that Ukraine—not Russia—is somehow responsible for the 2016 election interference fall right in line with conspiracy theories the Kremlin has been propagating for years."

Kellyanne and George:  you hear about "Trump divorces," but the couple you would think have been first in line have somehow stuck it out.  I'm sure I'm not the first person here, or anywhere, to say "the sex must be terrific."

I’m not a fan of Conway because for all the shit he says if there were any other guy in the presidency making every policy move Trump has, he'd be pleased as punch.

He’s one of the people who prepared environment that gave rise to Trump.

The GOP donor class built this monster and unfortunately for us, it got out of the lab and the village folk with any sense of context are out there after the monster with rakes, pitchfork and torches.

You don’t see them out with the villagers, do you? Once he completely breaks shit they’ll throw him away...

All that talk about “rebuilding the military...”

I think they’re on the same team and this shit is strategic.

If any other president put forth the policies of Trump George Conway would be perfectly fine with that.
