Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, now running for a U.S. Senate seat in Utah, told a group of GOP donors that Trump will “easily” be the party’s nominee and go on to beat his Democratic rival, Politico reported.

"I think that not just because of the strong economy and the fact that people are going to see increasingly rising wages, but I think it's also true because I think our Democrat friends are likely to nominate someone who is really out of the mainstream of American thought and will make it easier for a president who's presiding over a growing economy," Romney said.

Democratic US senators seek probe after Trump’s payroll tweet

Several Democratic U.S. senators urged federal regulators on Friday to look into potential data leaks after a tweet by President Donald Trump last week that some market participants viewed as a tip about the big monthly U.S. payrolls report ahead of its public release.

The lawmakers, Elizabeth Warren, Ron Wyden and Michael Bennet expressed their concern about Trump’s comment and called for investigations in letters to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Spokespeople for those agencies declined to comment.




Trump’s tweet that he was “looking forward” to the government’s monthly jobs report was seen by some as an indication the numbers would be positive.

The president traditionally is briefed on the report the night before, but government officials are barred from discussing the data until after it is released.

Petulant, Whiny Trump Cuts Short G-7Early, France Effectively Declares U.S. Irrelevant (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/6/8/1770311/-Petulant-Whiny-Trump-Cuts-Short-G-7-Early-France-Effectively-Declares-U-S-Irrelevant)



WASHINGTON — The White House said President Donald Trump will cut short his visit with the Group of Seven economic powers in Canada this weekend, announcing that

he would to leave the summit early after sparring with other world leaders on the issue of trade.

By leaving after a session on women's empowerment on Saturday morning,

Trump will skip meetings on climate change, energy policy and oceans.


It’s no surprise he’s skipping the session on climate change and energy policy.

He’d be laughed right out of the room. On camera, at that.

And that’s the real reason for this tantrum.

The last thing Trump wants is the optics of being lectured by someone who actually knows what he’s talking about.

“Prime Minister Trudeau is being so indignant, bringing up the relationship that the U.S. and Canada had over the many years and all sorts of other things,”

Trump posted.

“But he doesn’t bring up the fact that they charge us up to 300% on dairy — :lol

hurting our Farmers, :lol

killing our Agriculture!” :lol


Assuming Canada was actually “killing our agriculture” with its duties on some dairy products, the G-7 would provide the ideal forum to iron out that dispute.

Macron suggested earlier Thursday that the U.S. could be excluded from the group’s agreements.

“The American President may not mind being isolated, but neither do we mind signing a 6 country agreement if need be,” Macron posted on Twitter.

“Because these 6 countries represent values, they represent an economic market which has the weight of history behind it and which is now a true international force.”

“No leader is eternal,” Macron wrote earlier.

CNBC’s John Harwood Concerned About Trump’s ‘State of Mind’ After Presser: ‘He Did Not Look Well’

press conference this morning at the G-7 summit was so stunning to the panel on MSNBC’s AM Joy that they wondered if the President is well.

Trump today stood by his call

to reinstate Russia in the G-7,

blamed Barack Obama for the annexation of Crimea, and

he also got in a few shots at the “fake news,” CNN in particular.

“I’ll be honest, as a citizen, I’m concerned about the President’s state of mind.

He did not look well to me in that press conference.

He was not speaking logically or rationally. :lol

It sounded as if he was making stuff up, saying, you know,

China told me nobody’s ever talked to us or saying,

‘Oh, you know, I talked to Justin Trudeau,’ and

he can’t believe he was getting away with so much trade stuff. I don’t think those things are true.

There was something about his affect which was oddly kind of languid from him.

I don’t know what it means, but he did not look well to me.”

“I think Steve Schmidt said this the other day, that Donald Trump comes off like a moron…

I think he came off like an idiot today.

I was almost shocked at the way that he spoke with utter contempt of every president that preceded him.”

“This man wouldn’t qualify for the nuclear weapons control system to allow him to be anywhere near the nuclear control… keys or even guarding them.”

“He came off like Mad King Donald,”

“If you were talking to me this morning the way we just heard Donald Trump talk,

I would ask you if you’d taken any medication,

advise you not to operate any heavy machinery.”

So yes, when President Trump confronts the failures of the “rules-based international order” directly, after decades of pusillanimous acquiescence by his predecessors, you could describe that as “unprecedented.”

But doing things that are “unprecedented” is the very definition of Donald Trump’s mandate. That’s what he was elected to do. To shake things up. To change things. When you do something new, it is unprecedented. That’s literally what it means.

And yet the elites throw around that word “unprecedented” as a criticism. Nothing could be more revealing of their true beliefs: they actually loved the old order because they and their rich friends benefited from it. How disgraceful that they howl in protest when President Trump finally puts working people first.

So yes, when President Trump confronts the failures of the “rules-based international order” directly, after decades of pusillanimous acquiescence by his predecessors, you could describe that as “unprecedented.”

But doing things that are “unprecedented” is the very definition of Donald Trump’s mandate. That’s what he was elected to do. To shake things up. To change things. When you do something new, it is unprecedented. That’s literally what it means.

And yet the elites throw around that word “unprecedented” as a criticism. Nothing could be more revealing of their true beliefs: they actually loved the old order because they and their rich friends benefited from it. How disgraceful that they howl in protest when President Trump finally puts working people first.

Well, if he doesn't completely crashes the economy before he leaves, he'll be an outlier, tbh...

So far it's been Reagan (who apparently now would be a lefty commie, considering he raised taxes, EMTALA, massive illegals amnesty, put everything on the country's credit card, etc), Clinton and Obama receiving less than ideal (sometimes terrible) economies, and handing out stable and sometimes booming economies to a (R) who proceeded to screw up.

At the same time, he's glossing over aspects of the U.S. economy that don't support his faulty contention that it's the best it's ever been. The complexities of health care for veterans are also set aside as he hails a new era in the Department of Veterans Affairs' system.

This, from CNN's own Harry Enten, captures why breaking with Trump in any real way creates real political peril for a GOP incumbent:
"The problem that Trump's Republican adversaries are learning is that it's not 2016 anymore. Even as Trump was winning the presidential election, his net favorability (favorable-unfavorable) rating among Republicans in an average of polls was just +50 points. That's far short of the maximum +100 point rating. You could, in other words, oppose or critique Trump as a Republican (as Sanford did in 2016) and not get chased out of the party.
"Today, it's totally different. Trump's net favorability among Republicans is up to +71 percentage points on average. There are very few Republicans who disagree with Trump. Trump's approval rating (a slightly different measure than favorable rating) stands at 87% in the latest Gallup poll. To put that in perspective, only two other presidents since 1950 have had higher approval ratings among their own party heading into a potential presidential primary.

President Donald Trump’s net worthhas fallen to its lowest point since the 2016 presidential election, according to a new appraisal by*Bloomberg. It currently sits at $2.8 billion, down $100 million from last year.

The Bloomberg analysis attributes the drop to falling revenue at his golf courses and resorts and Trump Tower in Manhattan. Among the properties to report losses is Mar-a-Lago, the Florida compound dubbed “the Winter White House” where Trump has held a number of high-profile meetings since taking the Oval Office.

While a number of Trump’s properties have depreciated since he became president, the new Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., a haven for lobbyists and administration officials, has reported profits. In its first year open, Bloomberg reported it was valued at $100 million — up $30 million from last year........"

A senior White House official just defined the Trump Doctrine, “We’re America, Bitches”

“The Trump Doctrine is ‘We’re America, Bitch.’ That’s the Trump Doctrine,” the official explained.

Another described it as “We’re America, Bitches.”

“People criticize [Trump] for being opposed to everything Obama did, but we’re justified in canceling out his policies.

There’s the Obama Doctrine,

and the ‘Fuck Obama’ Doctrine.

We’re the ‘Fuck Obama’ Doctrine,” said the friend.

An ex-wine blogger is reviewing State Department staffers for their loyalty to Trump (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/6/13/1771735/-An-ex-wine-blogger-is-reviewing-State-Department-staffers-for-their-loyalty-to-Trump)

here's a story about State Department staffers being rigorously vetted to measure their personal loyalty to Donald Trump.

And they’re being vetted by a Trump-appointed ex-wine blogger, because everything is stupid now (http://foreignpolicy.com/2018/06/13/trumps-vino-vixen-compiles-loyalty-list-of-u-s-employees-at-u-n-state-mari-stull-political-appointee-state-department-international-organization-united-nations-political-retribution-chaos-dysfunction/).

Mari Stull, a former food and beverage lobbyist-turned-

wine blogger under the name “Vino Vixen,” :lol trash!

has reviewed the social media pages of State Department staffers for

signs of ideological deviation.

She has researched the names of government officials to determine whether they signed off on Obama-era policies

— though signing off does not mean officials personally endorsed them but merely cleared them through the bureaucratic chain.

And she has inquired about Americans employed by international agencies,

including the World Health Organization and the United Nations,

asking their colleagues when they were hired and by whom,

according the officials.


We've got a lobbyist turned wine blogger turned Delores Umbridge wannabe assembling lists of

which State Department and international U.S. government employees are sufficiently loyal to the Russian-backed traitor in the White House,

and which might need to be purged.

It's the sort of thing that would, all by itself, have rated as a mega-scandal in any administration before this one.

In this one, though, it's just another episode of wanton crookedness.

This hunt for those personally disloyal to Hair Furor, like those in other departments, is already having significant effects within the government agencies conservatives are trying to wreck.

Foreign Policy reports that three deputy assistant secretaries of state are "said to be on the way out";

it's implied that that's because they're fed up with the Trump appointees, not because they're being forced out.

And their source suggests "everyone" in the department is similarly "looking to bail."

Because that's the thing with incompetent, ideological, and dim-witted management:

it makes the competent people quit in disgust.

A FOX News host just blindsided Trump and demanded he fire a key White House cabinet member

President Trump’s

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross,

who is playing a key role in the administration’s recent tariffs on steel and other products, has blatant conflicts of interest that are so extreme that Fox News host Steve Hilton, in a segment called “Swamp Watch,” said yesterday that

he “is in a different league of swampiness.”

Hilton pointed out Ross got rich investing in steel companies and co-founded a shipping company, Nautical Bulk Holdings, that currently ships steel to the U.S. from

South Korea, which is one of the countries that has been granted a temporary exemption from Trump’s steel tariffs.


“He’s negotiating over South Korean steel imports while making money from importing South Korean steel,” Hilton said. (https://www.rawstory.com/2018/06/different-league-swampiness-fox-news-host-demands-trump-fire-wilbur-ross-sketchy-investments/)


Hilton also reported that

Ross’s chief of staff at Commerce is still listed as a director of Nautical Bulk Holdings despite claiming a year ago she resigned from the company.
Hilton points out that

there is no evidence that Ross has resigned from a number of companies that put him in a conflict of interest

even though he too made that promises more than a year ago.

Hilton also revealed that companies in which Ross has significant ownership also have ties to companies owned by or connected to Russia, China and Venezuela.

Ross is a part owner of Diamon Shipping, and once served as Chairman of the company.

Its shipping clients include Lukoil and Novatek, both Russian energy companies, Russian state-owned natural gas company GAZPROM, and PetroChina, which is owned by the Chinese government.

Trump is next targeting automobile and auto parts imports for tariffs

which raises another question about

Ross, who owns part of the shipping company TRF (Transportation and Recovery Fund), which imports lots of auto parts.

“Do you think,” asks Hilton, “that might affect Wilbur Ross’ handling of President Trump’s tariffs on auto imports?”


While the federal conflict of interest rules are fuzzy about what the president can do and own, they are explicit when it comes to cabinet members like Ross, who is clearly in violation of the law.

https://washingtonpress.com/2018/06/11/a-fox-news-host-just-blindsided-trump-and-demanded-he-fire-a-key-white-house-cabinet-member/ (https://washingtonpress.com/2018/06/11/a-fox-news-host-just-blindsided-trump-and-demanded-he-fire-a-key-white-house-cabinet-member/)

And of course, Ross bought into the Cypress bank that is used by Russian oligarchs and mafiya to hide/launder their $Bs.

FOX News host Laura Ingraham just called on Trump to fire top White House cabinet member

Ingraham, who was a lawyer before becoming a conservative author and broadcaster, let loose on the beleaguered Pruitt today in a tweet inspired by the latest stories (http://thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/392021-pruitt-had-aide-gop-donors-help-wife-find-job-report#.WyE0960l8PU.twitter) about his efforts to get his wife a job using his government position and government staff to help.

“Earlier this month, Republican Senator Joni Ernst said she would support his firing,”

Another prominent Republican, Senator Chuck Grassley,” add, “publicly speculated that the EPA was under the influence of the oil industry, in contrast to Trump’s earlier protestations about draining the swamp in Washington.”

Trump complains that oil prices are too high ... never mind that it's because of his policies (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/6/13/1771677/-Trump-complains-that-oil-prices-are-too-high-because-of-Trump-policies)

In mid-May, US crude oil futures topped $72 a barrel over concerns

related to Trump’s destabilizing the Middle East by breaking the Iran treaty,

re-implementing a sanctions regime, and

promoting the ongoing blockade of Qatar.

Prices were also driven up because Trump stiffened sanctions on Venezuela.

Since then, oil prices have eased almost 10 percent over reports that

Qatar was mending bridges with Trump by giving Jared Kushner a $1.8 billion lifeline,

that Kushner’s pal Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was going to do Trump a solid by opening the taps a little wider

, and that Vladimir Putin was going to back that play by ignoring limits on Russian oil production.

This is actually how the world works now.

But the drop to around $66 a barrel makes Trump’s morning tweet a little … odd.

The average national gas price in October 2012 was $3.69. It’s currently $2.96. So

Trump can maybe lay some claim to not being at the level he set for presidential firing.

However, the price is well above the $2.37 that Trump inherited when he moved into the White House, and

it’s up by almost a dollar from where it was of November 2016.

But we're not talking about doing something that other people did first.

We're talking about one party displaying outrage about something, then the other party saying "wait, I thought this was bad" when the former's leader does it.

Republicans, for example, would be absolutely justified in reaming Democrats if the next Democrat President refuses to show his tax returns and Democrats don't say anything about it.

Petty partisanship? Maybe. But I don't think Democrats have any obligation to stay out of partisan mud-slinging when the party that controls every branch of government is currently setting all-time lows in that field.

Acosta refused to mindlessly buy into the farce, and called out a question to Trump, asking if they had agreed on a denuclearization deal. Trump responded that they planned to do so soon.

Acosta then followed up and asked if the two leaders had discussed Otto Warmbier, the American who was captured by the North Koreans and released only to later die from the stress of his harsh captivity. Trump, predictably, didn’t respond to the perfectly fair question

Trump’s campaign manager for 2020 Brad Parscale

has taken to Twitter in faux outrage to demand that Acosta have his press credentials suspended for simply doing his job.

It’s a deeply un-American thing to suggest and fits in perfectly with Trump’s broader war on the First Amendment and the Fourth Estate.

well of course the GOP wants Trump, he's the sitting president.

is there any case in US history where a party didn't pick the incumbent president from their own party?

President Donald Trump is more popular with his party than almost any other recent president, according to pollster John Zogby.polls two and a half years before an election don't have great predictive value, but you're certainly right about about DJT's intra-party popularity and almost certainly correct that if he's still standing, he will be the GOP nominee in 2020.

Making that call is such an easy one it shouldn't count as a prediction, tbh.

The AP just released a bombshell report about Trump and Cambridge Analytica’s 2020 election meddling plans

s AP report also confirms that the RNC has given a contract for the mid-term elections to a top GOP operative involved in the theft of 87 million Facebook profile in conjunction with the Trump 2020 campaign.

Former Cambridge Analytica data scientist Matt Oczowski (https://pimainsights.org/speakers/matt-oczkowski/)created a company called Data Propria (https://www.wired.com/story/data-propria-data-cambridge-analytica/) and hired some of the bankrupt Cambridge Analytica’s former employees, then sold his company to the penny stock company CloudCommerce

Trump 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale also sold his marketing company to CloudCommerce and now the two men are working together on CloudCommerce’s new data analytics division (http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/3792445).

Parscale denies that the Trump 2020 campaign’s current goal with Data Propria is to re-elect the President, but says instead to impact the 2018 mid-term elections. The AP reports (https://apnews.com/96928216bdc341ada659447973a688e4/AP:-Trump-2020-working-with-ex-Cambridge-Analytica-staffers):

“I am laser-focused on the 2018 midterms and holding the House and increasing our seats in the Senate,” [Brad Parscale] said.

“Once we do those things, I’ll start working on re-electing President Trump.”

Both Oczkowski and Parscale told the AP that no Trump re-election work by Data Propria was even planned, but confirmed that Parscale had helped Data Propria line up a successful bid on 2018 midterm polling-related work for the RNC, awarded earlier this week. Oczkowski called the contract modest.


Of course, you can’t put much weight into a denial from anyone connected to the Trump campaign,

least of all its campaign manager, who is raking in the cash through his deal with CloudCommerce.

Maddow guest explains how NY lawsuit against Trump Foundation is a backdoor for the IRS to nab him for tax evasion

The Chicago criminal tax attorney told the New York Times that “people have gone to prison for stuff like this” (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/14/business/trump-foundation-irs-attorney-general.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur) and on Friday she explained how.

“The New York AG would have difficulty bringing a criminal case here

but this is up the alley of what IRS criminal investigations would likely be interested in looking at,” she said.

“These are very potentially far-reaching allegations that go beyond just the president.

It touches his campaign staff, his children, his business associates, his campaign donors.”

She said that what was exposed is “a hornet’s nest that could impact a lot of people.”

The IRS doesn’t have to do anything—but Johnson Ware thinks they will.

“I think the IRS would be inclined to look at the way this impacts a number of people and not just the president,” she said.

“Earned income is taxable.

So if you’ve earned money by doing something for someone, it’s taxable to you.

When I look at the Trump Foundation’s [990 forms] it looks to me like

business associates of the president were paying money into his foundation,

perhaps in place of money that they owed some of his business entities…

That means those people were getting a deduction for a 501(c)(3) charitable organization get a deduction for making a charitable contribution that isn’t real and

the entity that should have been picking up that income isn’t picking up the income and paying tax on it.”

Why the I.R.S. Should Go After Trump

By Philip T. Hackney
From 2006 to 2011, Mr. Hackney was an attorney for the chief counsel of the I.R.S. specializing in nonprofit organizations.

As a former attorney for the chief counsel of the I.R.S. who specialized in nonprofit organizations,

I believe Mr. Trump is also criminally liable for his actions.

If I were still at the I.R.S., based on the lawsuit, I would make a criminal referral, on charges of tax evasion or false statements on a tax return, or both.

On the tax evasion charge, the government must demonstrate that the defendant willfully failed to pay a tax he owed and acted to disguise or attempted to disguise that evasion.

For a false statement charge, the government must show the defendant willingly signed a return under penalties of perjury, making a materially false statement that he knew was false.

These are not easy charges to prove, but the Trump Foundation is a nonprofit organization that is entrusted with money to be used exclusively for public charitable purposes.

Any use of foundation money to benefit himself is akin to theft.

The government could anchor a

tax evasion and false statement case upon the multiple instances of self-dealing,

as cataloged by the New York attorney general, between Mr. Trump and the foundation.

The attorney general details occasions when Mr. Trump directed the foundation

to acquire expensive things like paintings of himself for himself;

paid $258,000 to settle two private lawsuits;

and made political contributions by paying $25,000 to the re-election campaign of Pam Bondi,
the Republican attorney general of Florida.

The attorney general also amply documents that in 2016,

Mr. Trump directed the foundation to operate as a political arm of his campaign.

These acts fail to meet the basic requirement of a charitable organization to operate exclusively for charitable purposes.

Yet

Mr. Trump signed tax returns (https://www.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2014/133/404/2014-133404773-0c00e5cc-F.pdf) year after year through 2014 stating that these expenditures went for charitable purposes.

Congress imposes rigorous rules on private foundations; for example, each of these self-dealing transactions probably subjected Mr. Trump to a 10 percent tax (https://www.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2014/133/404/2014-133404773-0c00e5cc-F.pdf) applied to the value of the transaction. In addition, he may owe other excise taxes and penalties.

The I.R.S. saves criminal consequences for notorious and continuous violations of the law.

And

the misuse of a charity for personal and political purposes over years — as alleged by the New York State attorney general — is in fact the type of case (http://www.philly.com/philly/news/special_packages/inquirer/fumo/20070207_The_Case_Against_Fumo_.html) that the I.R.S. goes after with criminal sanctions.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/15/opinion/trump-foundation-new-york-attorney-general.html?partner=rss&emc=rss

falsely signing IRS returns, not paying taxes on persona income taken from a charity, violating charitable org laws, etc.

Would the IRS "settle" with a non-wealthy person? fuck no, it would be fines AND prison.

What will the Repug-run IRS do with Trash, if anything?

when the president is an obvious crook like DJT, the remedy is impeachment and removal. once he be removed from office, no constitutional crisis is caused by criminal prosecution.

so long as DJT remains above the law, it's because the GOP allows it.

power in America has turned the rule of law into a mere myth.

Repugs still support Trash like at 80%+ approval,

so the Repug pols, fearing Trash's cultish, rabid mob, won't impeach him,

because he would run around the country throwing red meat at his mob.

I heard somewhere that America is fucked and unfuckable.

Drew Magary, letting it all hang out in GQ:


Wanna know how Trump wins re-election? This is how. It’s the same goddamn reason he won in 2016. He’ll win again because both the establishment media and the Democratic kingmakers are thin-skinned dipshits who will blame literally ANYONE for Trump but themselves. They will also recognize the Republican Party as legitimate and deserving of its power, when it has long since been exposed as a wholly criminal enterprise that needs to be destroyed.https://www.gq.com/story/this-is-why-trump-won
