When you're giving testimony it's a felony. Somewhat of a difference. yeah but it was perjury about some hummers, after Whitewater, the firing of travel agents, and misuse of FBI files fell flat. the whole thing was just to obstruct and smear Clinton. the point of my post though was to point out that the repubs have spent much time heavily investigating the 2 previous dem presidents and they sure as shite would have tried everything under the sun to obstruct Hillary had she won. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do realize, well, I guess you really don't.... that most people knew that Trump didn't mean that he was going to have Mexico cut a check. Most people knew that he was talking about things like the new USMCA agreement where the US would make more money at Mexico's expense, where as, the extra money can go for the wall.

I knew. Just curious why you fell for the pillow talk. Portions of the wall were built, under Trump, I'm sorry that fact fails to register, but there's nothing I can do about it. You can't just replace that debacle that Obama forced on us, you need time to get rid of it. If the Dems weren't all about impeaching him from before he even took office, it might have been done by now. Look, if you want to pretend that Obama's, and prior administrations policies have nothing to do with the increasing debt, then there's nothing I can say that will let you see the light. If you want to live in your own world, that's fine, I can't help you. Trump's trying to aid in the depletion of the debt, but again, then Dems what nothing to do with it, because that'll make them look bad and him good. What I'm seeing is that you "knew" very little, just "pretended" a lot. In 5 years, we'll see where you're at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
