Yeah thread is full of wolves atm

Or they could just read the ****ing 14th amendment

Completely lost on these dullards is the alternative: Nothing a politician utters matters, ever.

What time do results start coming out in Montana?

I'm starting to think this is the only play for the rest of the world. We need to basically ostracize the US until this cancerous administration is removed by whatever means.

I disagree with much of this. "The Media" is better now than it's ever been, but only if you're a savvy consumer. Since the advent of the written word journalism has been bastardized massively in order to influence public opinion in the direction of what conglomerates/pols want. Hearst built an empire on it, but he was by no means the first.

What scares me is the notion that now not only can facts be spun in any direction (like always) but we have a huge % of our population who can't (or won't) even grasp what the facts even are.

Polls close at 10:00 PM EDT. Results are expected to be slow, expect a long night if it's close.

That's what it seems like. If I remember Trump did send out a similar letter previous to being president. Someone must have gotten the letter and did a photoshop job with the updated info or simply faked the whole thing.

How fast do you think Trump would throw his SiL under the bus? It'd be a funny look having Kushner in jail while Trump is Prez.

He would throw his wife and all his children under the bus. He is a pure narcissist. He cares about thing on earth, himself. Nothing else matters in any way.

I hate to say something that could be construed as praise for Trump, but I think his immediate family (Jared too) is safe. If Jared is going to go down, I think Trump is sure to try to commit some kind of massive unconstitutional power overreach prevent it.

Rob Ford is absolutely an apt comparison. He once railed about Government waste because staff were watering plants at city hall... except the problem being that the plants were fake and nobody watered them.

Rob Ford thought rules shouldn't apply to him. Was vastly under qualified for his job. Refused to acknowledge basic facts that were inconvenient to his position and was a compulsive liar. Oh, he also was at least somewhat racist/homophobic.

And the idea of him being immune to corruption is blatant bull****. He frequently misused city resources for his personal life and his family business.

Edit: Oh and of course Ford was well known for attacking the media when they were accurately portraying many of his scandals.

Just trivial speculation here of course: I think Melania could be cut loose pretty easy, but not his kids aside from Tiffany.

Maybe not Ivanka.

Remember when america lost soldiers fighting to save europe, and now trump's just like **** europe and people are supporting that?

I think trump will at first try to save Jared too without any regard for laws as microbet said.

I didn't really follow this, but did you bury the lead or are you really going with the plant watering thing?

He'll need her to repopulate the Earth once he destroys nearly all of us.

He isn't an apt comparison. He didn't go from reality show > office. He went from office > office. He at least had some sense of protocol unlike Trump from his previous office. I cannot recall him making inflammatory comments that even come close to what Trump said on the campaign trail. Maybe you could compare him to some GOP member, but not Trump. He was also a heckuva lot younger than Trump.

The two bare little resemblance of one another as politicians other than that they created sideshows.

Is it too much to ask for one of these treasonous cock pumpers to be led out in cuffs?

The real funny part is Chris Christie tried his best to hitch his fat ass to the Trump Train. And this is AFTER he threw Kushner's father in jail.

Hah, I buried the lead. I was just going to start with the anecdote about how clueless and dumb Ford was, but the more I started thinking about him the more I remembered how horrible he was as a politician.

This is ridiculous. The media has been the absolute strongest check on Trumps incompetence and inability to lawfully execute his office. The Washington Post got a compromised national security advisor fired and news of the Comey memos and other reporting has forced an independent investigation of the whole administration.

I'm not at all sure about that and even if true, it's much easier said than done. Not sure how many times you've been under arrest, but cops have all kinds of methods of putting a ton of pressure on you and I'm not even talking about physical stuff.

I'd be willing to bet that a well played good cop/bad cop interrogation would have most people talking or saying things they shouldn't. It's not so easy to lawyer up. Especially after hours when you're almost certainly looking at spending the night or getting transferred to county.

Just because he's not a perfect copy of Trump doesn't mean it's not an apt comparison.

Edit: My post is full of ways the two were cut from the same cloth.
