I made a guess based on limited information that turned out to be wrong. I have no problem admitting that. As for who's the slappy, probably anyone still in the tank for HRC as a champion of feminism after last week's NYT article. Is that you or can you finally admit maybe she was a bit flawed?

I don't think so (at least I haven't seen anything like that mentioned before).

Yeah, not like d10 would ever...

There are thousands of posts in this forum about what a flawed candidate she was.

I admittedly almost never watch any cable news. Tonight I decided to record both Hannity and Maddow and intend to watch them both.

My plan is to watch Hannity first because I do not want that to be the thing that lingers but I am open to suggestions on the appropriate order. Obviously I do not mind those telling me not to watch Hannity, or Maddow for that matter, but as of right now I plan to do it just because....

Got to admire the chutzpah of drumming up unfounded controversy and then saying yea it was unfounded but we still might have to fire him because the controversy existed.

I assume the target of letter-numbers unrequited love. So it is creating some confusing feelings.

You just don’t get it. Literally everyone here knew the memo was a smoke screen that they would use as a reason to fire RR

everyone but you.

Also. Why in the **** are you talking about Clinton. She has 0 relevance to this story.

Given that the memo seems to be regarded as a dud, are people (that's non-Trumpkin people) glad that it was released rather than be withheld after the speculation that suggested something way more substantial? Or is this just part of normalising the obscene / distorting reality /confusing the masses etc that has a wider goal?

Seems like a bad day for Trump on the face of it.

Yeah, I always regret it if I catch some of it. It is seriously depressing.

The division was already bad in your country, but by this move your congress officially sanctioned that facts no longer apply to even the most important of politics and that it is not congress' responsibility to hold a president accountable.

The partisan aspect is bad, but it's when you ignore it the true horror of this situation becomes clear. It's basically congress giving the executive office free reigns.

They took a huge dump on your founding fathers idea of people making the system self-governing and officially went for self-serving instead.

The question was "who's the slappy?" Loki is well known for his HRC hero worship. If you don't understand the context of the conversation feel free to stay out of it.

If a mod of this forum wants to engage in a discussion about who's the slappy, figuring out who's the slappy isn't an ad hominem attack is it? See above.

Remember, it never ends for the right wing outrage machine:

Just two weeks ago, Donnie jr was endlessly retweeting #ReleaseTheMemo, lest we forget.

Wasn't it the DOJ IG report that was the catalyst for McCabe to go on leave/exit? I don't remember for sure, but whatever it is will no doubt be part of the next round of right wing hackery

Anyone tracking the Dow at all or equating it with the market in general would be well advised to put all thier money under thier mattress. You simply don't know enough to invest.
