Yikes. I was merely joking yesterday. And today it's all over the news about him threatening to end the briefings.

The whole sports thing is kind of weird, like, I would never have expected rich people not to know about sports.

I don't know a lot of super elite rich people or anything, but I do work on Wall Street with a lot of people that would be considered at least pretty rich and it's not like sports are viewed as some sort of distraction for the poors or something.

The Trumpsters eat up anything he does. The top comment on Brietbart's article about Trump threatening to end the press briefings:

Quote:

I AGREE. Written briefings are also less likely to be edited for spin. GO FOR IT PRESIDENT TRUMP!

Imagine if Hillary was president and threatened to end the briefings. The Brietbart commenters would be calling for her head.

Trump's 140 character tweets say exactly what he needs to say! He has nothing further to say on the matter! - Spicy

I love when Spicer says it's been very clear when clearly it wasn't clear or they would
Not be asking questions.

So Trump is using twitter to make threats against witnesses in investigations into him and his administration. I thought twitter said they'd shut down his account if he was using it to break laws?

Your saying TRUMP lied?

trump: comey better hope there weren't any "tapes" running during our dinner conversation!

spicer: the tweet speaks for itself. the president was simply stating a fact.

You don't need to bother with circumstantial evidence for this one any more.

He needs to get even more Democrat/Independent/Neutral voters motivated to vote and also hope a couple thousand Republican voters that didn't originally want Handel stay home.

I have seen very little campaigning since the first election, but it could be that they are waiting until the runoff gets a little closer.

Also, there's a state Senate runoff election next week. I expect the Republican to win that because I think everybody assumes that vote is at the same time as the Congressional vote.

If the sitting president is a Democrat, hold endless hearings and inquiries regardless of any wrongdoing. If the sitting president is a Republican, lol, do nothing, didn't happen.

Ossoff is behind in the polls. I'm fairly sure he will lose. There are probably just barely enough Democrats and Indies in the district for him to win, but he's gotta capture virtually all of them. Hard to do even for the best candidates, and Ossoff isn't all that inspiring.
