No I just mean an onslaught of nefarious shit that could have had ramifications. This is obviously worse but color me skeptical that anything comes of this.
What are people seeing that suggests this? Like, pass the house? Sure, but from all I've seen it's still dead as soon as it hits the senate
It's really frustrating in retrospect, but at the time there were people that still believed bipartisanship was a thing. Trump is really the first president to take office where that illusion has been swept away.
I can understand being skeptical. It's hard to not be skeptical considering some of the things people in Trump's political orbit are starting to be accused of. The whole thing is unbelievable until something happens.
I disagree, they made it obvious they weren't going to work with him, the GOP stood him up when he invited their leadership to the WH. I'm not blaming Obama just looking back at it in hindsight, part of what makes Obama is the fact that he's optimistic even when dealing with assholes in the GOP. I understand why he tried to be inclusive and work with the GOP, but there was a legit chance to pass some progressive policies and unfortunately it didn't happen.
So all this Nunes and health care shit has allowed Trump and the GOP to completely sweep the fact that they have a literal neo-Nazi who never should have been allowed into the us, on staff, under the rug.
He basically thinks there are two issues. "Something in the documents bothers him". I'm guessing this is something about trump and his family. Perhaps movements otherwise? And the amounts unmasking concerns him. Don't think he should be doing this so openly, but that appears to be the main things that objectively bother him
Maybe he has a son that he disappointed too many times and for his birthday wish his son wished that his father could not lie for a week or so.
If the black guy had 5 kids from 3 different women and didn't live with his wife/kid I can't even imagine the racist shit you'd see on Fox, breitbart etc
Dem: How long have you known Putin? Manafort: Never met him, it's a coincidence that I'm friends with all of his closest buddies. GOP: What are your feelings on the leaking of information about Michael Flynn?
Every sign points to this being terrible for everybody that matters, and only beneficial to the rich, so OF COURSE the GOP will pass it.
i remember when i was watching the debates w/ biden and i was all "man this guy seems like he gets it" mfw now
Reads like an Onion article Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin joined Axios' Mike Allen this morning at the debut of his News Shapers event series to talk about his new role in the Trump Administration. On AI supplanting human jobs: "it's not even on our radar screen.... 50-100 more years" away. "I'm not worried at all" about robots displacing humans in the near future, he said, adding: "In fact I'm optimistic." Other big ticket items: Trump: Trump's stamina: "He's got perfect genes. He has incredible energy and he's unbelievably healthy." Trump's diet: Mnuchin claimed Trump no longer eats KFC or McDonald's, as the White House food is "great." The dollar bill: "I think we should look at putting President Trump on the thousand dollar bill." Trump's views evolving: "He's the negotiator-in-chief... he wants big deals." Trump's leadership style: "He has an open door. People are coming and going, and he thinks about something and calls somebody on the phone... this is not a formal, scheduled president."
I think Manafort knows perjury would be the least if his issues if the rubber meets the road on this investigation.
It's super nice to now have a president with Perfect Genes when the last guy very obviously had very imperfect genes.
