How upset will he be when he doesn't get the Nobel Peace Prize that he clearly wants so desperately?

I never count a bet as a winner until it actually wins. And if, and it’s still a big if, they get a legitimate deal, we all win. But I think we all are skeptical of any deal unless it has enforceable inspections.
That all said, it’s nice to see something most Americans approve of according to a new CNN poll. Which may or may not be Fake News😀

Trump admitted yesterday that he considers negative news coverage of him as fake. By that definition alone, this is not fake, lol.
What's funny to me is when Obama said he would sit down with dictators without pre-conditions, he was ridiculed and called naive. Now, when Trump is doing it, those same people that criticized Obama are celebrating it.

To be fair, we don’t know what, if any, conditions were negotiated before this meeting. But I am more with you in that we can assume he doesn’t.
But this is no different from both parties talking out both sides of their mouth based on the President at the time. Easy to find an issue almost every politician has been against before they were in favor of it.

Except Trump said there are no pre-conditions. Rocketman is gonna give up his nukes either by agreement or force.

Umm, that's exactly what Obama said.
Except that neither he nor the acolytes can reconcile the glaring disparity between the testimony three weeks ago and the supposed news this week. Isn't it not surprising how stories are changed without any recognition of defective past testmony.Quote: rsactuaryBut so far every prediction that Avenatti has made has happened. Sounds like he knows something. I'll wait while you find some text on a website to respond with.

Who is paying Michael Avenatti?
http://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/387088-who-is-paying-michael-avenatti
From the beginning, this has been fishy. Daniels’s previous lawyer advised her to stick to her agreements. In contrast, Avenatti OK’d her violating with impunity her nondisclosure agreement on 60 Minutes despite a binding arbitration judgment against her. She has acknowledged on Twitter that she is not paying for her lawyer. So who is? And did he indemnify her against all multimillion-dollar penalties?
But this release of a “report” by Avenatti also raises the question of where and how did he get this detailed financial information because he didn’t find it on Google. This is the kind of information that would have been known only by the Treasury Department, his banks or by prosecutors, raising some serious questions about what kind of operation Avenatti is running. Is there a team of people digging this up? Are they paying off sources? Is Fusion GPS involved? Are there political donors behind making this campaign work? He can’t be both an attorney and then participate as an officer of the court in trafficking illegally obtained information.

Are you asking us why Cohens lawyers perjured themselves and said they only had three clients? That is between them and the courts.
It may well be true, though, as most of his clients seem to have ditched him.

Gotta love an "article" that asks more questions than provides information. Fusion GPS...lol. At least it checked the standard conservative "it must be a conspiracy" box.
There's a few logical explanations about how he could've gotten this information. Suspicious Activity Reports is one that's totally plausible.

Let me guess. The Russians did it. Putin is paying the tab.

Defective past testimony from COHEN'S lawyers.
Why are you trying to act like that's Avenatti's fault? Are you confused?

Quote: aceofspadesWaiting for the Left to somehow claim Trump getting the hostages released is a bad thing
I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. I don't think anybody is upset that hostages are being freed.
The worst I've seen from the left is mild criticism that Trump isn't working hard enough to get other Americans freed being held hostage in other parts of the world, but nobody is upset about the N. Korean hostages.

Quote: aceofspadesBabs - I love ya but, that is not how this works - parties to civil litigation to do not have access to ongoing Federal criminal investigation materials
I said he didn't have investigator access. But he was admitted to the case with standing because of the NDA being negotiated by him and the money being paid by him
What that means in practical terms I'm not pretending to know, but he's being allowed to see and hear some things that we aren't. That's all I'm saying.
It was a ruling the judge made that Friday maybe a month ago that let him in there when they revealed who Cohen's 3 clients were.
"Mark Penn suspects the same thing is happening here, that this is a nothing burger, that in accordance with the media — complicit with the media — it’s turning a Stormy Daniels story that’s about nothing into something that makes it look like Trump’s lawyer was colluding with Russia to help Trump."
And now it's unraveling, as of course it
had too. Oh well..

Because one would be hard pressed to find anything political you have said in the past 4 years that has turned out correct. You begged Trump to run, begged the GOP to nominate him and have been wrong about him every since. But I give you credit, you keep trying and he keeps getting more popular.
And you still can’t come up with one thing he has done that has personally hurt you.
Quote: EvenBobRush says
Yawn. Another copy and paste from EB
I get you can't figure out the news yourself so you turn to Rush.
A lot intelligent people on this board the dont need Rush to explain things like you do.
Some of us remember when "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country " was a mantra we, as a people, actually lived by. Some of us still do. Too many others have been seduced by "greed is good" and other such nonsense.

Once in awhile the long shot wins the horse race. Most people get it wrong, in fact. I don't think anyone but long shot bettors would have bet on Trump.
In fact, I see no reason, to change up expectations based on long shots coming in once in awhile.
Perhaps changing up expectations on Trump is in order because he is a specific case. But then again, we have yet to see what happens in the midterms.

Has Trumps approval ever been over 50%
Has he ever gotten more the 50% of the vote
No
No

That's why this is so much fun. Ams laughed
and laughed and BEGGED Trump every step
of the way to run against Hillary. He's the most
politically wrong person I've ever encountered,
yet he keeps going like he's always right. He's
the frat house pledge in Animal House, bending
over and yelling "Thank you sir! Give me another!"
Very entertaining.

is paying the Dem operative, a former Rahm

Avenatti's dry cleaning bill, let alone his attorney

I know who wishes he had paid him. That would be Trump.
