Media Refuse to Discuss Angel Families...because unlike those who pounce on the perceived political advantage afforded them by someone else's tragic loss, they aren't racists.

Has Donnie Jr. ever had a job outside of the family?

REDSTATEWARD's non-denial tells us that he actually doesn't care if Trump is a Russian asset, so long as the rich get their tax cuts. Trump's own non-denial tells us that he could actually be one.
[/b]
This question is sort of being stated in the wrong way. Trump is not working for the Russians (in the sense that he carries out their direct commands). The only person Trump has ever worked for is Trump. Now, if in working for the advancement of Trump, that means saying positive things about the Russians, or not saying negative things about them, then he certainly doesn’t care. What seems to be certain is that Trump has some sort of involvement with them, be it financial or ‘other’, that he really wouldn’t care to see revealed publicly. That this ‘involvement’, whatever it may be, just might be adverse to the interests of the United States seems to concern him very little. His delusional personalty is of such a nature that he is quite capable of papering over any such concerns (at lest in his own mind) quite easily. In the end the Prime Trump Directive remains supreme “If it’s good for Trump, then it is good”.

"Big game hunter" is not a job (even if it is for some folks in Africa).

And I think you mean Ivanka, not Ivana, this time around?

I continue to marvel at how he thinks Trump’s performance justifies the start of a long Trump Family Dynasty in US politics.

...coming from someone who claims to not be a supporter.

I thought the first line was referring to Mueller or Nadler and the rest was a list of pelts soon to be mounted in the trophy room or out on the fence or something.

They didn’t pick the most competent Russian spy, instead the picked the absolute worst person to serve as president. Here’s just another glaring example,

And so the new Congress takes charge with the spotlight on Nancy Pelosi and the democrat takeover of the House.
Funny how the fears of Trump fascism aren't talked about now since our democracy held serve in off-year elections like they normally do.
"Fascism: A Warning" by Madeline Albright, a New York Times Best Seller two years ago, is not even a seller now.
How did the Trump the autocrat derail democracy?  Uh, he didn't.  Nor did he try to.
Elijah Cummings, the new House Oversight Chairman, was on 60 minutes yesterday.
His priorities?
The high cost of prescription drugs and the misuse of private aircraft by Cabinet officials.
Sounds like business as usual in DC.
Remember " How Democracies Die" by Harvard intellectuals ?  Another best seller comparing
Trump to the autocracies that befell Hungary and Turkey.  The authors now admit " American  democracy is not dying". 
No shit.

And you got a booming economy, record unemployment, (especially for blacks and hispanics) 3 per economic growth, 3 per cent wages increase, and low inflation.  Thanks for asking.

If you're going to quote the Wall Street Journal you need to spell out "three" like they do.
Did I ask something? If you're going to try to out-snark me you should learn to read.
