The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: No smocking guns. - Page 5015 - Politics and Economics

My Dad called me to tell me that CNN was saying that all white, Christian men shouldn't be allowed to vote.

"Can you believe that?"

"Not really, no."

"What they're doing to white men in this country is criminal."

"I know, white men have had it so hard for so long in America that I could cry."

"It's amazing that this is going-- wait, what?"

Lol this was all over rush limbaughs show yesterday.

My youngest graduates HS in 2020 and if Trump wins that'll be a fine time for us to relocate to a country without concentration camps.

That is the cut off point for my brother, who is 20 plus years in the US. His wife, American born and bred, would move to Ireland in the morning. The only thing keeping him in the US at the moment is the fact he has a decent well paid job which he likes.

Wow I just watched that Press Conference. What a sad little pathetic man he is. Oh and what’s the story with these vicious stone throwing marksmen who are taking out the Mexican police and military? Haven’t heard anything about that. Complete bull****?

The President of the United States just created a “Rules of Engagement” for the troops that he has ordered to the Southern Border that alllows them to commit an unambiguous war crime and an unambiguous crime against humanity.

when Trump talked about shooting migrants he obviously meant with super soakers not actual rifles, libtards.

Trump says he always tries to tell the truth when he can

US President Donald Trump says he always tries to tell the truth when he can, despite how the media portrays him.

"I do try," he told ABC News in an interview aired on Thursday. "I always want to tell the truth. When I can, I tell the truth."

It's a super low volume highly inefficient and super-swingy market. What's so interesting about a 3 cent drop?

its not toooo volatile, there are usually reasons for changes of more than 1 cent.

Think this one was due to a poll that got o'rourke closing the gap to like 4% instead of 6-7

It is more instinctive to quote critics of the President who say the plan is an example of the President's racism. Clearly this is hard for many to understand, but it is instinctive to report on what people are saying, rather than making the statement yourself.

It's a bad instinct. It shouldn't be the job of journalists to mindlessly repeat what people say in 2018. We don't need that. I know it's been mentioned here many times but that quote about looking out the window and figuring out whether it's raining or not is spot on. That is what we need.

I think you would like this conversation Ezra Klein recently had about the role of the media:

If you replace the subjects with "white people" it makes perfect sense

The "Patriots" and "Loyal Citizens" being his supporters is off-the-charts fascist.
