Who cares if there is a difference between the two? This conversation is dumb.

Only way to stop Trump is to get Lilu to issue a prop bet.

I've been doing that with a trumpkins I know, telling him to replace the name Trump with Obama and what would his reaction be. He was honest once and now he goes to the hilarious joke "doesn't matter because Trump replaced Obama."

I'm sure the Saudis won't mind a little light blasphemy.

So, with this leak, does this effectively neuter any patriotic rallying of people around trump if there is an attack on America?

Okay, I guess probably not because that would be a normal world... but maybe some people with a small amount of sanity left would be like, "this is trumps fault"

Surely he will remind them that they all secretly know who the "bad ones" are and need to report them.

"When they see trouble, they have to report it. They are not reporting it; they are absolutely not reporting it, and that’s a big problem,” Trump said when asked what his message was for British Muslims following attacks in Brussels.

“It’s like they’re protecting each other, but they’re really doing very bad damage, and they have to open up to society. They have to report the bad ones.”

So just like the GOP, she went into hiding.

Not sure we should be rooting for Trump to be impeached. At the very least all of the scandals and incompetence have made it harder for him to enact meaningful domestic policy unencumbered (they are still trying their best mind you). We put Pence in charge and the Republican train of tax cuts for the rich, healthcare destruction, criminal justice aggression, and far-right social policy starts churning like a well-oiled machine.

"They said I'd never be President, folks. And I won, bigly. Huge numbers, some of the biggest. And now a lot of people, a lot of people are talking and they're saying that I'll never be proclaimed the Twelfth Imam and lead the ummah to glory in the fields of Megiddo. Can you believe it? They think I won't lead the righteous hordes in glorious jihad out of Medina and on to the proving ground of Dabiq!"

Kellyanne Conway later clarified the President's remarks and expressed dismay at the leaking of their content.

I love Muslims. I love all the Muslims. Nobody knows about Muslims better than me. They run the convenience stores and bodegas in America. They take lots of time off throughout the day. They go on a really good diet for a month. They don't eat cows and the Dalai Lama is a tremendous role model for Islam. I think he is. I just made that up. I think I would be better. I've got two buildings being constructed in Riyadh. Not one. Two. It's more than one. All of the Muslims will have a place to pray because of my two buildings that'll have Trump on the top in gold letters.

I *think* I can get behind this Eric Swalwell guy if he can figure out how to stop looking like he's about to burst into uncontrollable laughter during every interview.

I agree that if I was guaranteed some sort of universe where I was promised Trump wouldn't nuke us all or some other terrible Trump-driven catastrophe, I'd take a full term of bumbling Trump over other alternatives.

Man, these tyrants really know how to play him like a fiddle. "I would like to congratulate President Trump on his legendary triumph in the aftermath of the election..." *Trump iterrupts Erdogan's speech to tip his head and say "thank you"*
