Donald Trump is the symptom of what's rotted at the Republican Party over the last decade, i.e., they overreacted to Barack Obama, a good man who pushed for compromising solutions time and time again, to the dismay of his base. Did Hillary make mistakes? Yes, she did. Is the left EQUALLY to blame for electing a despicable human being as the role model for our children and leader of the free world?

Well, maybe it has been broken since you first voted. Guess I wouldn't know; that was a bit before my time. I really don't think most people were thrilled with the candidates. I know I sure wasn't. I heard the phrase "lesser of both evils" more times when picking candidates than I have ever before and that was speaking about with of them.

I watched the entire video. I was okay with it until the usual slant came into it--all kinds of stuff that sounds like H.R. 1 with nothing about keeping voting clean with respect to knowing that everyone who votes was eligible to vote, the vote was cast legally, and in the right place.
Maybe part of the answer is to stop paying retirement and great benefits to members of Congress, and the President for that matter (Presidents will make money from speaking and writing books anyway for the most part). Monitor how much wealth they gain in office to make sure they aren't selling themselves to the highest bidder. I hear at least one of them is trying to give Congress a raise in order to "increase diversity".
Quote:Federal judges have ruled against the Trump administration at least 63 times over the past two years, an extraordinary record of legal defeat that has stymied large parts of the president’s agenda on the environment, immigration and other matters.
In case after case, judges have rebuked Trump officials for failing to follow the most basic rules of governance for shifting policy, including providing legitimate explanations supported by facts and, where required, public input.
Quote:“What they have consistently been doing is short-circuiting the process,” said Georgetown Law School’s William W. Buzbee, an expert on administrative law who has studied Trump’s record. In the regulatory cases, Buzbee said, “They don’t even come close” to explaining their actions, “making it very easy for the courts to reject them because they’re not doing their homework.”
Two-thirds of the cases accuse the Trump administration of violating the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), a nearly 73-year-old law that forms the primary bulwark against arbitrary rule. The normal “win rate” for the government in such cases is about 70 percent, according to analysts and studies. But as of mid-January, a database maintained by the Institute for Policy Integrity at the New York University School of Law shows Trump’s win rate at about 6 percent.

And the Dem that survives the 2020 primary will regret the day the won the primary. They will be blamed for failing to beat the “worst” President ever. The problem will be they offered a vision for America only a few crazies actually believed in. Most legal Americans don’t want Free stuff, they want to earn what they have. They don’t think Republicans want to kill gays, linch Blacks and starve Grammy.
It’s a losing strategy and any sensible Dem candidate won’t survive the first debate where it will be a race to the bottom to offer the most free stuff.
I would like to think most people on here see that as well. But TDS is stopping them for thinking rationally.

Quote:President Trump on John McCain: "I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted, which as president I had to approve. I don't care about this. I didn’t get thank you. That's ok. We sent him on the way, but I wasn't a fan of John McCain."
Donald is bitter that John McCain didn’t rise from the dead to give thanks for allowing him to have a nice funeral.

I highly doubt that it did. McCain was a better man than that. And he didn't ask his Russian comrades for help...
But we can clearly see McCain's not inviting Donald to his funeral bugs him constantly seven months later.
Quote: ams288I highly doubt that it did. .
Yeah, that's why McCain absolutely
forbid Trump to attend his funeral.
Because McCain was 'such a better
man'.
He hated Trump and it ate at him every
day that Trump was elected and
McCain tried twice and never was.
People forget he was a big candidate
in 2000 and hated that Bush beat
him. It's why McCain was such an
asshat all the years Bush was president.

For AOC’s we should all stand around and do nothing other than perhaps fart in her honor.
For KamalToes we should all find a powerful person who can help our careers and s*** him off.

How many times do we have to go over this?
In June 2015, when he announced, he didn’t think he’d actually beat the other 15 GOP losers who were running. He just wanted the free publicity that he craves so dearly.
Once he realized he had a shot and then later when it became clear he was going to get the nomination, things changed.

Do you have actual evidence that he didn’t think he’d win, just wanted free publicity, and wasn’t taking it seriously when he first announced? Oh and Russia, too.

All I've seen are these hocus pocus articles that talk about nothing. If something's there, then get it out there and just write it. No need for wordplay if facts are on your side. A classic example, as I'm sure you've heard, there are a bunch of people who are certain Trump is hiding something in his tax returns, but they're unable to spell it out. Much logical!

No, it was at least the 2nd event to which any other President would have been invited. Trump was not invited to Barbara Bush's funeral. That was a big slight.
If they could have kept him away from GHW Bush's funeral, they would have, but he wasn't allowed to speak, which might have been a first for a sitting president at a former president's funeral.
I got the strong impression at the time that it was the McCain family that didn't want him there, as opposed to McCain himself. But I wasn't in the room, along with the rest of us that weren't. So, hard to say.
But it's really unnecessary to crap on McCain here. You guys have said your piece. Trump is making an ass of himself about it. Let that be enough rudeness, please.
The Justice Department and the F.B.I. are O.K. with that.

Trump's not a politician, they're tremendously
offended he entered their kingdom of ass
kissing and closed door deals without any
indoctrination or dues paying. It's not supposed
to happen at this level, you're supposed to
be owned by all kinds of special interest groups,
and owe tons of politicians personal favors.
Trump wasn't owned and owed nobody and
it frosts the Deep State every minute of every
day. Why would they want him at a Bush

a McCoy burial.

With release of the interviews of
Page and others, and a judge being
forced to release thousands of
documents this week, it's apparent
that Mueller bought into the fake

years, all designed to distract
from the real criminals in this
drama. The higher up's in the
Obama regime.

and technical resources, neither the Justice Department nor the F.B.I. have been able to produce one iota of verifiable evidence of U.S. aid to the Russian effort to influence our elections. Of course, that cannot include the $10 million or so Fusion GPS paid to assemble the Steele dossier or the crucial role of Facebook.

Maybe or maybe not. But McCain's involvement with the key Russian ally of Syria certainly raises probing questions.
Quote: beachbumbabsNeither of you knows anything about it.
Not true. Insiders have been leaking
for weeks not to expect any big
headlines from Mueller. Certainly
not of Russian collusion. Cohen
was Mueller's big witness, he went
after him weeks after his investigation
started. All because he totally believed
the fake dossier. A huge amount of
time was wasted on following Cohen,
listening in on every conversation,
screwing with his cell phone with
spy equipment, and they got zip.
The fake phony dossier was the sole
piece of 'evidence' Mueller had, a
piece made up by Hillary operatives.
Mueller was played, I wonder how he
felt when that finally became clear.
