Not the first Trump-related dinosaur erotic novel he wrote either

He has a point, Trump's going to Trump but the real aholes are the guys allowing it just to give a tax break to their billionaire buddies.

I love that the press actually stuck together on that "so called judge" tweet and didn't let Spicer weasel his way out of it.

Has any press secretary ever name dropped the prior administration in pure examples of whataboutism as often as Spicer?

Tell it. Seriously **** em in the hole.

Chaffetz: Quit it with the conflicts of interest and money grubbing or I might do nothing like I was always going to do.

I can't believe I'm saying this but that nuclear treaty story has got to be fake news, right?

Not to be Debbie Downer, but my counterpoint would be that a lot of the Tea Party types probably had significantly more free time? Being older, with established relationships (or confirmed bachelors/spinsters), less demanding social lives, etc. So they probably had more free time to do it. And they were doing it as a labour of love, on the back of ~four decades' worth of propaganda. My worry is that millennial outrage may have a short shelf life, especially if the administration makes some minor shiny-object concessions.

HIYOOOOOOO

Ezra Klein made the point on the weeds that the haphazard extremely blunt Breitbart ideological way of running the Presidency is going to make it hard for Democrats to accept concession if/when he does make them. If he keeps going on the white nationalism / demagoguery then Democrats can't accept a concession without angering their base because who wants to be the one who made a deal with "Hilter".

I'm like 3 months of being into politics (and not really educated prior to that) and I could've written that article. Just from reading pretty much just solely this thread and some news pieces I've gathered that the only way to stop Trump and his administration is if the republicans turn on him. But they won't because they care more about money and/or power than the country. That much seems incredibly obvious and it's even more depressing to think about.

I'm slightly skeptical simply because the small number of people present in the room during the call is so small that leaking seems dangerous, but:

- The Reuters reporters (cited in the Vox piece) are generally pretty good

- We know Trump has waived off a lot of the standard briefings, so the notion that he didn't get the typical pre-call refresher that would have highlighted the treaty issue doesn't seem outside of his range

- Similarly, we know from the "nuclear triad" debate question that, at a minimum, he didn't have a great knowledge of nuclear policy language. Given that, MAYBE, he didn't have to get full coached up about the details of NEWStart, but simply reminded that that was the name of the nuc treaty (still bad obviously, but I'm trying to come up with something that will at least let me sleep at night...)

Judges under heightened protection because of threats. jfc

Not sure whether to hope he's right or wrong, to be honest. Interesting point, though.

LOL Lindsey Graham said that the problem with the Democrats is that theyre being "pushed by the most extreme forces in their community... Their party is going to lose its way." MOTHER ****ER YOU JUST DRAGGED A HARMLESS MOM OUT OF THE COUNTRY IN A VAN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. NO YOU.

Lol travel ban took a **** on TRUMPs head. Judges say TRUMP has to stay 100 yards from anyone with brown skin.

woot

Meh, he settled a dispute by actually boxing a dude and beating him pretty bad.

Orange man is gonna get someone killed naming them on twitter but he will never get his account banned.

A victory for The People! Never stop fighting!

How long until Cheeto face erupts in a volcano of Twitterblab?

2018 GOTV vote effort better be all hands on deck. I'll be doing something - money, time, or both.

YES!!

This is such a joke. Ruling based not on the constitution but on politics. This country is so finished

We need to run a candidate in every single district in the country, that would be a start.

Sweet, sweet alt-right tears

SC will overturn it anyway so it won't matter

yeah I'm not trying to be a jerk but that's just wrong. not really sure where to start but... no.
