POTUS: Definitely Needs Anger Management

Re: POTUS: Definitely Needs Anger Management

Not that the extent of criminal misconduct should shock anyone anymore, but the trump administration is really going for the gold medal of misconduct based on what this article reveals.


“Clear direction from POTUS to continue to hold.

trump is clearly the most corrupt and criminal president in the history of our nation. And seeing what a few of the previous 44 who occupied the White House did in their time in Washington, that is saying something. If we were living in reasonable times, not only would he have been convicted by a Senate trial, he would likely be facing prison time -- or worse. His acts of bribery are most certainly evidence of treason, and didn't he recently refer to what we "used to do" to traitors?

More evidence Mitch will never read and Republican voters will never know even exists.

(Edit: same link as ND below.)

What is clear is that it all came down to the president and what he wanted; no one else appears to have supported his position. Although the pretext for the hold was that some sort of policy review was taking place, the emails make no mention of that actually happening. Instead, officials were anxiously waiting for the president to be convinced that the hold was a bad idea. And while the situation continued throughout the summer, senior defense officials were searching for legal guidance, worried they would be blamed should the hold be lifted too late to actually spend all of the money, which would violate the law.

The emails also reveal key decision points, moments when senior officials hoped the hold might be lifted. This includes Vice President Mike Pence’s September meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which a senior defense official expected would resolve the funding issue, raising the question: Why? What was supposed to come out of that meeting that would pave the way for Trump to lift the hold? What was Pence expected to communicate?

But, the hold wasn’t immediately lifted after Pence’s meeting with Zelenskyy. Instead, the president finally released the money on Sept. 11, just as the whistleblower complaint was about to break into the open.

The whole EOP including Pence knew. They were all against it but they were all terrified to tell Emperor Shart Stain his idea was illegal, and bad, and treason. So, patriots they are, they dithered. And now they're all lying to save their as-ses, while Mitch and the GOP in Congress are covering for them to not enrage the Dumpies.

And we are going to be 50/50 in the polls even though they are 33% of the population.

What a country.

There's a reason it's 99.8% white male techy. It's the personification of the STEM whizkid in his freshman dorm: everything about it flatters the manboy with no responsibilities or dependencies who has the education and resources to make his way, no systemic bigotries to hold him down, and no immediate health issues to worry about.

It is the politico-econo-fap fantasy of a sheltered smart but unsavvy adolescent boy, writ large to appeal to (and be funded by) the wealthy looking to avoid paying taxes. Its pose of moral neutrality is hypocritical in a world of obscene inequality. Its assumption of objective meritocracy belies the people purveying it had the privilege (and, to be fair, perhaps the intellectual gifts) to have an easy path to success.

They now want to see this formalized forever, and called both "practical" and "moral." Just like the warlord wants a world based on brute strength or the zealot wants it based on the Grace of the Almighty.

Just another con; this time primarily a self-delusion and rationalization for immature well-scrubbed boys.

As Rube is I was. As I am Rube will be.

Take a good look at your craggy, sour, world-wise, Socialist future self, son. You're comin' in right on the beam. :cool:

Voting for the war in Iraq was inexcusable, not to mention threatening to obliterate Iran during her first run for president.

She wouldn't have nuked the Iran deal though so she's still better than Trump.

I think she moved on from both of those positions. As President neither of those previous positions would have resulted in a negative foreign policy decision so I do not think it applies here to comparing her to Trump.

There is a spectrum. Everything to the right of my preference is not equally "awful." Hilllary's foreign policy would have been the standard Democratic FP of the last 50 years: soft imperialism with modest pretensions towards idealistic notions of human rights and self-determination as long as it doesn't interfere with corporate profits. That is much better than the GOP's "blood and iron" fundy fapfest.

It was garden variety cowardice. The Clintons are people of the book of real politik, not principle. They are Rover, not us. Her vote was pardonable albeit worthy of disdain.
 
Re: POTUS: Definitely Needs Anger Management

I dunno about y'all but I'm looking forward to being told that I hate America because I'm voting D in November. Because that is how this is gonna play out :mad:

And it's absolutely the best thing Dumpy could do to fortify his reelection campaign....
 
Re: POTUS: Definitely Needs Anger Management

It's still a tad early to wag the dog. 11 months is enough time for the fever to break. Start it in July to be sure to spike at the right time.

The scariest part of the election is this year is how much the electoral college through Republican Engineering efforts tilts in Republicans favor. Trump still wins if he holds what he had last time but loses Michigan and Pennsylvania and keeps Wisconsin.
