The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: No smocking guns. - Page 4217 - Politics and Economics

I listened but tbh I couldn't really pay attention to all of it. It was just too much. I was afraid I was going to start ending all my sentences with 'allegedly.' Allegedly.

It gave a lot of good info and background on Trump and his progression and how he came to be. Definitely a very interesting listen. Also detailed accounts of him molesting women. Also his 2nd wife banged their body guard and later committed suicide.

The comedians were pretty annoying a lot of the time though, but also occasionally pretty funny.

Ivanka will get all the money. I've seen this play out many times.

As stupid and sick as everyone in this administration is, I cannot imagine that Melania would intentionally wear that jacket to that location to actually say that she doesn't care. That would just be the dumbest ****ing thing of all time.

She's got to be saying something about her husband.

In either case, it's insane.

I'm trying to look at it that way. It's possible she was forced to participate in Melania going to bat for the kids stories and then yanked out of the attic to go on this mission so she decided to wear this jacket as a middle finger to orange. But man, that's a stretch.

This does oddly seem like something the ol' base would eat up. The same people who froth and get spittle lipped about "the purity of marriage" or whatever will now near joyfully exclaim "Oh, she's in on it!" with a laugh and dismissive wave when asked about that sham of a marriage.

It does kind of help. Sometimes it literally smells like entire blocks in my neighborhood are smoking at once.

I think the jacket is a message directed towards Trump. Melania just wants to be left alone and do rich things. Dont get me wrong, shes a craven ghoul but shes also smarter than these morons running the show. She saves her public hate and vitriol for stuff like Obama being from Kenya.

That jacket is $40. She's used to wearing $20k shoes. It wouldn't surprise me if Trump said something like "Back me on this or you'll be homeless" or some stupid **** like that.

1. Wow Trump, way to spam the **** out of this thread (my immediate reaction was "oh ****, the bot's going haywire" but then I realized it was just Donald J. Trump having some quality executive time)
2. "Great victory for consumers" that they now have to pay sales tax on all purchases? I mean I don't disagree with the decision or anything but LMAO at trying to act like this is a "great victory" for anyone who buys ****

My theory is that the jacket is a shout-out to the deplorables.

Maybe Melania asked DJT if he was going to do anything about the child separation and he said "I really don't care, do you?" and she trolled him there. I guess that would be giving a lot of credit.

Has anyone parsed out the meaning of today's news about the change in border prosecutions? WaPo:

Quote:

A Justice Department spokesperson denied changes to the zero tolerance policy and said prosecutions would continue.

But the decision to refer migrants for criminal charges after crossing illegally rests with the U.S. Border Patrol, and the senior CBP official said the agency will no longer send parents who arrive with children to federal courts.

“We’re suspending prosecutions of adults who are members of family units until ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) can accelerate resource capability to allow us to maintain custody,” the official said.

Quote:

A spokeswoman for the Justice Department, Sarah Isgur Flores, said “zero tolerance” remained in effect.

“There has been no change to the Department’s zero tolerance policy to prosecute adults who cross our border illegally instead of claiming asylum at any port of entry at the border,” she said.

So is this...
- actually a change to the zero tolerance policy?
- a temporary measure while the government builds whatever concentration camps they need to cage tens of thousands of immigrants?

It's a "great victory" because it makes Amazon buyers pay taxes so this counts as a "win" for him in his war against Jeff Bezos.

Was hoping he was smart enough to tell trump that's also something Obama didn't want to do when I asked him about it and then if that didn't work just lie and say it's also 2 more R senators and house reps in congress.

This. She is only with him because of some pre nup **** involving Barron. Something she knows he can’t enforce ultimately but will be a complete **** about even if it is ****ing up his kid. She knows exactly what he is like and what he’s capable of. MHO.
