    In 2005 politics thread one saw much the same conceit. Conservatives refusing to call themselves Republicans online and calling GWB a RINO, while backing his policies to the nth.

    There are more than a few posters here who say they don't like Trump, but defend every policy.

    and i'm always willing to hear most everyone out... the ones i've come across on the left though are long gone. it's odd to me because when i blindly voted against all things republican as a stupid 20 something people still debated each other. today, people just outright hate each other if your political ideologies don't line up. politics should never be treated like sports.

    i could be better at not making blanket statements but hey, show me 1 logical lefty and i'll show you a sea of extremists on the same side and a few now in congress.

    A comprehensive summary of the hole in which Trash and Repugs find themselves.

    Donald Trump Is Losing, And He Knows It


    President
    Donald Trump is feeling the heat.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4kWpi2HnPU

    That’s true legally,

    with regard to what we keep learning about special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe and

    the fact that Democrats in the House ―

    with outgoing Republican Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes no longer able to protect Trump ―

    will also now truly investigate the issue, even if Trump fires Mueller.

    But it’s also true for both Trump and the Republican Party, electorally.

    Trump and certainly his political aides must see that

    his greatest campaign weapon ― viciously assaulting immigrants and people of color with racist rhetoric and actions ― misfired spectacularly

    in the midterms and is likely to do the same in 2020.

    Without that, Trump’s pretty much got nothing.

    Attacking Obamacare won’t work any longer. The midterms proved that it’s now the Democrats’ issue to use against him and the GOP.

    Promising to cut taxes is empty, as the massive tax bill was a dud.

    Trump broke his promise to his supporters that he would “drain the swamp” by actually filling it up further:

    Now House Democrats will use investigations to exploit the corruption of Trump and his Cabinet, which will garner enormous media attention.

    Trump’s promise to protect Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid was exposed as phony when

    he allowed
    Republicans to say several times in the past year that they would soon make cuts to these programs.

    It’s clear Trump knows all of this, consciously or not, and

    the last two weeks have seen him behave more erratically than any period since he entered the White House.

    It’s sinking in for everyone both in and out of the White House that

    the midterms were a disaster for Trump and the GOP.

    He later
    admitted he probably “should have” gone to Arlington,

    but made it worse by offering the excuse that he was “extremely busy making calls.”

    Firing Jeff Sessions and replacing him with Matt Whitaker as acting attorney general immediately after the election further revealed

    his grave fears of the Mueller probe, and showed how far he’ll go to try to stop it.

    it’s his attacks on immigrants that may have done the most damage, outweighing any possible upside for him, by bringing so many more people into the political process.

    Assaulting immigrants also seemed to backfire in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, the three states Trump narrowly won in 2016, and which he’ll need again.

    Democratic senators up for re-election in those states won by big margins

    he seems to intuitively know that the

    issues he perceived as his magic bullets did not work

    ― and may not work again.

    along with the Russia probe and

    the specter of House Democrats investigating an array of questions potentially involving his family and finances,

    has

    added massively to Trump’s already considerable paranoia.

    The question now becomes:

    If Trump thinks he’s on his way to losing in 2020, what is he willing to do to win?

    Volcker, Greenspan. Bernanke and Jerome Powell, explained @ the link.

    The author seems keen to warn the market not to expect a government backstop next time around.



    For years, the standard metaphor for the Fed’s approach to monetary policy has been that of a punch bowl. In 1955, Fed chairman William McChesney Martin said the Fed is in the position of the chaperone who has ordered the punch bowl removed just when the party was really warming up. Spoiling the fun just as the party is getting going is one thing; tightening remorselessly until something breaks is another. In the last two cycles, the Fed made a different mistake by allowing asset bubbles to go too far. The last time it could possibly be accused of tightening too much and breaking something was 1990, and the result was a mild recession. Before that was the era of Paul Volcker, who is now enjoying encomiums of praise for his steadfast resolve in breaking inflation by raising rates aggressively, even if he forced a recession in the process.

    The Banker's Very Own Fed, and the Treasury (manned by bankers) will always bail out BigFinance, as often as necessary, with at least silent approval from BigFinance-owned Congress (both parties)

    Hatch Act violations may result from a flurry of recent contributions to Whitaker's 2014 Iowa Senate campaign.



    Last January and February, when Whitaker served as chief of staff at the Department of Justice, four individuals donated a total of $8,800 to the committee for Whitaker's unsuccessful 2014 run for a Senate seat in Iowa, according to Federal Election Commission records.
    "After years of being completely dormant and only after he joined Jeff Sessions' office as chief of staff, Whitaker's campaign started receiving a cluster of contributions,"
    A financial disclosure form released Tuesday showed that Whitaker was paid a total of $904,000 over 2016 and most of 2017 by The Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust, which received nearly all of its funding from a group called DonorsTrust, whose contributors are mostly anonymous.

    Trump’s incoherence is too much — and it’s getting worse

    his ability to maintain even the pretense of normalcy and rationality begins to crumble.

    That’s true on both foreign and domestic policy, giving the impression of

    a president teetering on the brink of a complete meltdown.

    Trump appears
    to all but his most deluded cultists to be in the Saudis’ pockets, remarkably gullible and/or a liar.

    On this
    he remains politically isolated against a united front of our international allies, Democrats, Republicans and our intelligence agencies.

    President Trump is demanding top advisers craft a plan to reduce the country’s ballooning budget deficits,

    but the president has flummoxed his own aides by repeatedly seeking new spending while ruling out measures needed to address the country’s unbalanced budget.

    his staff’s unwillingness to maintain any semblance of unity and loyalty suggests

    they no long think it’s in their personal interest to be associated with a president

    who makes mincemeat of one policy issue after another.

    He’s not so much leading as he is meandering —

    with aides racing after him to prevent bigger disasters and embarrassments.

    Republicans would be wise to forge their own course on a whole array of matters and

    to stop defending an indefensible president (as they are doing on Saudi Arabia).

    If not, the 2020 election will make 2018 look like a smashing success for the GOP.

    And Mueller's major MULTIPLE hammer blows have not yet begun to fall.

    Because obviously Chump/Pavlov doesn't play any part in the back and forth and it's a mistake to think he has over the past however many decades on here.

    These folks have already paid in full for the next few political seasons. They have no say in the outcome now since they vote straight ticket every election and the party they vote for had zero concern about earning that vote.

    Trump twice tried to convince Iraq's PM to hand over the country's oil



    To a Trump supporter, being “tough” apparently means never being afraid to commit flagrant war crimes.
    The same guy who reportedly asked a nuclear weapons expert why we aren’t using our nukes to blow up other countries has also

    frequently wondered aloud why we
    didn’t steal Iraq’s oil after we invaded the country in 2003.

    President Trump twice raised to the Iraqi prime minister the idea of repaying America for its wars with Iraqi oil, a highly controversial ask that

    runs afoul of international norms and logic,

    In March last year, at the end of a White House meeting with Iraq's then-Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi,

    he gets a little smirk on his face and he says, 'So what are we going to do about the oil?'”


    Trump was like, 'We're idiots,'"

    'What are we doing there, what do we get out of this, why don't we take the oil?'


    And then Mattis spoke up. Made the same point that H.R. [McMaster] made.

    There's no physical way to do it.

    It would be a violation of international law,

    Of course he does. That’s his gimmick.

    How stupid is Kori for responding to the game/gimmick he has been running tbh. Pavlov post two sentences and Kori responds with two to three paragraphs. Rinse and repeat. Easy to see who the idiot being played I tbh.

    Trash reckoned that the U.S. was paying top military leaders millions per year

    Chief of Staff John F. Kelly has told others about watching television with Trump and asking the president

    how much the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff earns.

    Trump guessed $5 million,


    Kelly responded that he made less than $200,000. The president suggested he get a large raise and noted the number of stars on his uniform.

    Donald Trump still wrongly thinks President Barack Obama wiretapped him in Trump Tower

    Neither Trump nor his allies have offered any proof of the claims and

    former FBI Director James Comey testified under oath that he has
    no information to support the president’s claim.

    Trump’s own Justice Department also was unable to find anything to substantiate the claim.
