Brad GLuckman 518 Posted February 25, 2017 Let's cut the horsesh!t a minute. The your team vs my team crap. Look at the first month of this presidency. The absolute incompetent sh!tshow we have seen. You can't seriously tell me that you are 100% comfortable with having this bunch of circus monkeys in the situation room when things get real. And it's coming. Russia or china or Iran or someone is going to test this clown soon. All he's shown so far is irrationality and weakness. Jesus, i cant believe we are only a month in. Thats terrifying.

And the democrats will be scrambling for Florida, a state they should have on lockdown. I really want TrumpCo to 'splain to me how he cuts taxes. Like I've said before, even FOX nailed him early on in the primaries on this. It's the same shiit - he says he's going to 'gut' three agencies to balance the cuts. FOX added up the budgets of all three - and it's nowhere close. Now, just today, we've got Trump swearing to have a 'massive increase in military spending', he promises not to cut entitlements, build the wall, massive infrastructure spending - AND cut taxes? Yeah, Good luck with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted February 25, 2017 He hands one reporter his focking phone after typing on it, then she asks a question. Types again, and points to his phone to another reporter, who also asks a question. Just like Bigfoot. Tell you what Mike, let's go ask that staffer if he prompted those reporters with questions. He'll say "no," and you will be correct in Honcholand. Congrats on winning! Like I said, this is your kryptonite. I honestly don't think you even see it. Question for the audience: anyone else side with Honcho on this? Newbie, Sho, MDC, other libs? I highly doubt it but I thought I'd ask. Honcho wants video that actually transpired. Oh wait...........there is. Never mind. Just goes to show even if you have proof beyond a reasonable doubt they'll still poo-poo it because that's their mentality.

Like I said in another thread - Remember the RWers and TrumpClowns losing their absolute SHIIT when Bill spoke with Lynch on an airport tarmac? ABSOLUTE CRIME! LOCK HER UP!!! Now, we've got TrumpCo finally admitting what had already been reported before - that they met with the FBI to try and have them quash stories about an ongoing criminal investigation. And what will we hear from the clowns here (and everywhere else)? "Oh more whining! Do we really need a thread on this? Fake news! WAAAH!!! Like I've said repeatedly, some shiit's jsut focking wrong. Even Nixon's counsel is on record as saying the whole thing is shady as hell. It doesn't make your weener any smaller to admit some shiit is just effed up. the FBI met with them and told them that the NYC Russian ties story is bullshit, they asked if they would make what they told them public.

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted February 25, 2017 Is Trump banning those organizations that have been publishing leaks? CNN has an agenda so why the fock WOULD you invite them in? And wasn't the Administration asking them to downplay the story since FBI briefed them there wasn't anything to the story? "A White House official said Friday that top FBI officials told Chief of Staff Reince Priebus that the story that the agency is looking into ties between Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and Russia is “bull----.” The White House appeared to be responding to a CNN report that the White House asked the FBI to dispel media reports of the Russia story. A senior administration official told reporters Friday that FBI Assistant Director Andrew McCabe told Chief of Staff Reince Priebus after a meeting on an unrelated intelligence matter last week that the story about contacts between the Trump campaign and Russian intelligence was “bull----.” The official said Priebus asked McCable what could be done about it, because the White House was “getting crushed” on the story and McCabe said he would get back to him. McCabe later called back and said the agency would not be able to put out a statement, telling Priebus, “We’d love to help but we can’t get into the position of making statements on every story.” FBI Director James Comey later confirmed McCabe’s assertion, the White House official said, but also said the FBI couldn’t put out a statement. http://www.rollcall.com/news/politics/trump-blasts-fbi-as-totally-unable-to-stop-find-leakers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drobeski 3,061 Posted February 25, 2017 OMG OMG this has never happened OMG Oh wait, it has Media Outrage over White House Exclusion is Fake News CNNs media correspondent Brian Stelter accused the Trump administration from trying to cherry-pick questions, defeating the medias ability to hold the president accountable. Dean Baqeut, executive editor of the New York Times, said: Nothing like this has ever happened at the White House in our long history of covering multiple administrations of different parties. However, as the New York Times itself reported in 2015, President Barack Obama met privately with liberal reporters and columnists frequently throughout his tenure in office more than a dozen times. And although he occasionally invited conservative columnists, Liberal-leaning columnists from newspapers tend to dominate at Mr. Obamas secret sessions. Obamas private briefings for liberal members of the media, which excluded conservatives, were well-documented. A few: December 2012: Several journalists reported that MSNBC hosts were meeting privately with President Obama to discuss the impending fiscal cliff fight. May 2013: NPRs Ari Shapiro reported that President Obama was meeting privately with lefty columnists, but hastened to add that there was nothing nefarious about it. November 2013: President Obama met again with liberal journalists, as Obamacare struggled with the failure of healthcare.gov and other problems. March 2015: Politicos media reporter, Hadas Gold, reported that a group of journalists and columnists, all on the left, met privately with President Obama, but the White House refused to say who else was at the meeting or what was discussed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh let's be clear.........by your assertion and others it doesn't qualify as a terror attack, much less major unless someone dies. San Bernadino was Obama's fault: http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/06/politics/obama-oval-office-address-isis-terror/index.html Others: June 2009: Al-Qaida-trained Abdulhakim Muhammad opened fire on a U.S. military recruiting office in Little Rock, Ark., killing Pvt. William Long and wounding Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula. November 2009: Nidal Malik Hasan opened fire in an attack at Ford Hood in Killeen, Texas, killing 13 and wounding more than 30. Obama ruled it "workplace violence," not terrorism, even though Hasan was in contact with an al-Qaida leader in Yemen before the strikes and praised Allah as he mowed down fellow soldiers. September 2012: Terrorists with al-Qaida in the Maghreb attacked the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, killing the U.S. ambassador and three others. Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lied to the American people, blaming the attack on an anti-Muslim video when they knew it was al-Qaida. April 2013: Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev exploded two pressure cooker bombs near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, killing three and wounding more than 260. At least 17 people lost limbs. May 2015: ISIS-directed Muslims Nadir Soofi and Elton Simpson opened fire on the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, shooting a security guard before police took them out in a hail of bullets. No one died but still happened on Obama's watch. July 2015: Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez attacked a military recruiting center and U.S. Navy Reserve in Chattanooga, Tenn., shooting to death four U.S. Marines and a sailor before police killed him.

Guess that fits with his Drain the Swamp attitude. They've been afraid of him upsetting the apple cart. HTH Literally from day 1, when Trump said Mexicans were sending rapists, murderers, etc, the dude has been putting his foot in his mouth. Had he laid out his plan for immigration more eloquently there wouldn't have been the same reaction. And the media has admitted they didn't take him seriously enough from the beginning. So how exactly have they been attacking him from the start? The article I linked quotes Trump getting all butt hurt because the media wasn't devoting enough attention to him. That constitutes an attack? Seems to me they didn't really think he was a serious candidate. But they were scared he was going to upset the apple cart? While you've agreed he says stupid things, you've gone out of your way to make a lot of excuses for why he does. Obama....media....liberals....illegal IC leaks...swamp people...where are you Omarosa?
