President Trump Tweets
[guest post by Dana]
Deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee defended the president:
“I don’t think that the president’s ever been someone who gets attack and doesn’t push back. There have been an outrageous number of personal attacks, not just to him, but to frankly everyone around him,” Sanders told host Bill Hemmer.
“This is a president who fights fire with fire. And certainly will not be allowed to be bullied by a liberal media and the liberal elites within the media or Hollywood or anywhere else,” she added.
Unsurprisingly, so did Melania Trump via her communications director:
“As the First Lady has stated publicly…when her husband gets attacked, he will punch back 10 times harder.”
Keep on telling me how great it is that our president tweets directly to the people because I just can’t even. How about using the medium to advance sound policies and solid principles, all in the name of conservatism (or whatever it is that the GOP now embodies) or just stop tweeting altogether…

This is the “comes around” part of “What goes around, comes around”. In this race to the bottom, President Trump has some catching up to do, so he’s doing it.
The coarsening of our culture (New York Values, for short) neither began with Trump, nor will it end with Trump. It did help put him in the White House.

Now the interesting thing will be to see how Trump will defend that, considering that:
1) Mika Brzezinski, as far anyone knows, didn’t have a facelift.
2) Nobody who has afacelift is beeding after 1 or 2 says.
3) But there are visible signs of facelift, like a swollen face and they genberall;y don’t go out in public for awhile.
http://www.newser.com/story/245028/trump-vs-mika-white-house-defends-presidents-tweet.html
But the defense is only that he attacked back. Mika Brzezinski had apparently said he was “out of his mind,” (the way he was running his administration – this was all about Rex Tillerson being overruled, mainly about Qatar.)
…so Donald Trump set out to prove that?
Trump always attacks, when he attacks people, not on the basis of truth, but on the basis of what he found or ehard oter people say. Except that i don’t know who said this before.

Frederick (64d4e1) — 6/29/2017 @ 3:22 pmThis is what was said on Morning Joe:
She really gets going 6:07 If someone did this at NBC there’d be concern that perhaps he was out of his mind – at about 6:44.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygyA8Gh_Gjg
The accusation is that Trump wants Jared Kushner to be the de facto Secretary of State, and that in any case they’re not allowing Tillerson to function – Trump wants to cut the State Dep’t budget and he’s not appointing people – foreign diplomats now don’t call the State Department – they call the NSA – he probably means the NSC – the National Security Council, and McMaster.
There’s no Secretary of the Navy, and no Ambassador to Japan. Tillerson is being treated like a GS-12. They say Tillerson and Mattis work togetehr – but they have no people. Tillerson was allowed to bring in Elliot Abrams and now there’s nobody.
Joe S finishes by saying either appoint Jared Kushner Secretary of State or let Rex Tillerson do his job. And Tillerson should just quit. (this was brought on beause Tillerson reportedly blew at somebody in the White House)

Trump could have answered them that way, or at least answered after
consulting his staff, and he might even have found a way to say it in 140 or 280 characters.
He could have said yes he wants Jared Kushner to be Secretary of State – in about 16, 25 or 36 years. Ot come up with some other ideas.
He answers these accusations, some of them possibly very unjustified, in an absurd, irrelevant way, and that’s true even if Mika Brzezinski did have a facelift last year.
Trump says their show is low rated (somehow that’s is answer to anything) and also claims he stopped watching it – then treats it like it was highest rated opinion news show on

Come on now, Hoagie. Tell me honestly what we know the President thinks about each of those issues. As far as I know it is something like the following:
Social Security – We’re going to save Social Security and not cut it for anyone or raise anybody’s taxes. Our plan is a great plan and you’re going to see what a fabulous plan it really is.
Jobs – We’re going to bring jobs back to this country. Good jobs. Jobs for working Americans. Companies are going to want to do business in America again, I tell you, and we’re not going to have them outsourcing jobs to China or Mexico. This isn’t going to happen on my watch.
Immigration – We’re going to have an immigration plan that protects American from harm and makes sure that we know who is coming in and that they have been invited in. We’ll no longer let in drug traffickers and gang members, but we’ll be sure to bring in scientists and doctors and engineers. We’ll tell other countries that they can’t take advantage of us any longer; we’ll build a wall but there will be lots of doors in the wall. We’ll be protected, but we’ll still be welcoming. You’ll see; it will be great.
Did I pretty much cover it? Maybe if he spent more time working with his cabinet to formulate actual plans and less time settling scores on Twitter, we might get a conservative agenda out of all of this.

I don’t know: by the time he formulates his opinion and uses his words to express his inner feelings, then spell-checks words and reads it aloud several times to see if it makes any sense, you’re talking about some significant time being wasted. It’s not like he will let this take time away from his favorite soap operas and playing Candy Crush Saga on Facebook, so it’s probably being carved out of cabinet briefings and meetings.

I will say this in the President’s defense: I can completely see two media, uh, “professionals” (in the “world’s oldest profession” sort of way) showing up at Mar-a-Lago (translation: Nigeria by the Sea) and trying to ingratiate themselves with the host and expecting to hang with him for an extended time. It’s part of the ugly Washington-New York axis that is so poisonous to the country.

Idiots all. And I’m disgusted with Melania Trump defending her husband when she said she would make cyber-bullying her platform as First Lady. Then tell your husband to stop attacking a woman and talking about blood – no matter where it was coming from.
Mostly, I’m disgusted with the Commander in Chief who seems to continually trying to establish himself as the perpetual victim under attack from all sides without once admitting he cuts his own legs out from himself all the freaking time. He is the one distracting Americans from any great accomplishments taking place, he is distracting himself from focusing on the damn job he was elected to do, he is the one that is single-handedly responsible for his lack of discretion.

happyfeet (28a91b) — 6/29/2017 @ 5:08 pmJust thinking about the problem of the nuclear codes in the hands of an immoral lunatic who may well be looking at removal from office eventually.
Is there any way (short of unilateral disarmament or a constitutional amendment) that congress could remove the president’s ability to destroy the world on a whim?
Since the president cannot mechanically initiate the launch of nuclear weapons himself, the danger lies in subordinates carrying his insane, sociopathic orders. But the military is obligated to disobey unlawful orders. There are recognized limits on the president’s ability to order the military to do illegal things, so could congress pass a law making it unlawful for the president to order the use of nuclear weapons without concurrence of at least one of (say): the Vice President, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of State at the moment the order is given?
Unfortunately, I think there would still be a loophole, since the president could fire one of the cabinet level officers and then potentially recess-appoint himself or a family member to fill the post…but something along these lines seems absolutely necessary.

Yet because it’s so mind-boggling to me that good and decent people defend and justify him, I am compelled to push back.

nk (dbc370) — 6/29/2017 @ 5:42 pmTrump’s behavior reminds me of a story my cousin Dustin told me of what happened to him around five or so years ago on a solo bow hunting trip he’d made to Colorado. He was hunting elk and – stealthy Army Ranger that he was – he surprised a large bear. The bear went from a 4-legged to 2-legged posture a couple of times and then came after him. Cousin told me he turned to start running and realizing he didn’t stand a chance at reaching safety, he saw a broken tree limb on the ground and grabbed it. He told me he beat the bear off and was surprised to see the bear just give him a gentle cuff with its paw and turn to amble docile away. I said, “damn it, cousin, what a stupid thing to do! That bear will just tell his friends about that and you won’t be able to ever hunt in that range again. Why didn’t you just smack him with the tree branch!?!?”
Yes… unintended consequences…

happyfeet (28a91b) — 6/29/2017 @ 5:50 pmThe way it works in the federal system, a person is held on a complaint, usually sworn to by an FBI agent or other federal cop, on whatever charge is necessary to hold her for indictment. The indictment, when returned, will be the accusation on which she goes to trial, and it may contain other counts.

happyfeet (28a91b) — 6/29/2017 @ 5:56 pmInteresting to see that a large percentage (71%) of Trump supporters believe that he hurts his agenda with his tweets. I see that as a good sign.
Dana (023079) — 6/29/2017 @ 5:56 pmSo, fun fact: I’ll be in Paris when Trump visits for Bastille Day, and my hotel is just across the Seine from the Bastille.
I am not really one for big crowds, and normally protesting my president on foreign soil would be out of the question, but it is tempting … Vive la résistance!
I imagine there will be more demonstrators than you can shake a baguette at anyway, excoriating him for pulling out of the climate accord. I don’t support the climate accord, but hey, you know, binary choice: Trump or no Trump.
It is insanely easy to mock Trump in French, thanks to the French verb “Tromper” (trom-pay) which in various forms means mislead, cheat, swindle, err, make a mistake, be mistaken, mess up, etc.
My last “protest” against a president came when I encountered Bill Clinton at the Women’s Soccer World Cup Final in 1998 or 1999. I stood about 20 feet away from him screaming “LIAR!” as he and his entourage moved through the crowd (I never actually saw Clinton himself).

happyfeet (28a91b) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:09 pmNarciso has the basic idea of Bastille Day right.
[happyfeet-friendly answer follows]
Of course, after this year, it will lose whatever previous minor historical significance it may have held, and henceforth be remembered as the day President Donald Trump graced Paris with his divine presence.
[now back to reality…]
The Bastille was a prison where the French King kept prisoners, including political prisoners, as well as stockpiles of guns and ammunition. The “storming” of the Bastille marked an important milestone in the French monarchy’s loss of control over the city of Paris, and with it, the country as a whole. It marked (I think) the first bloodshed in what had been up to that point a contentious, but peaceful, process of reform.
It does, as Narciso says, have the same significance to the French as the Fourth of July for us.
Dave (711345) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:19 pmDana– So why does Twitter corporate policy permit maintaining an account of an individual who demonstates cyber-bullying and puts the NY in misogyny? If they have guidelines for this surely they could yank his account like they would anybody else.
DCSCA (797bc0) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:22 pmIANAD (I am not a Dana), but CNN has an article on this question.
Dave (711345) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:24 pmDana #69: I know what you mean, but the current goal is for a few trolls to outshout everyone else.

Simon Jester (bcb31a) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:28 pm@ Dana: I was referring to the comments, not your post. I’m genuinely sorry that I wasn’t at all clear about that.
If this makes sense: I think it’s still newsworthy, and worth posting about, when Trump goes into one of these tantrums. Your post was mostly quotes, except for a couple of sentences of restrained constructive criticism, with which I fully agree.
In the comments, occasionally someone will offer a comment about Trump’s vulgar tweeting that does have some new insight or wit. But when I left my remark above, I hadn’t seen any comments that were in any way new or different. Just the same old non-excuse from the Trumpkins — that they love him because he’s a jerk, that it’s a feature and not a bug, yada yada yada, and everyone who disagrees is a Hillary-loving cuck. The leftie trolls throw in their two cents (“He’s a jerk!”), again without anything new or different. And the rest of us are left shaking our heads, wishing that somehow Trump could grow up and stop tripping over his ego.
Beldar (fa637a) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:29 pmDave @92. Police work is latching on to a suspect and looking for things to find him guilty of and evidence to find him guilty with. So who knows what else they may come up with?
nk (dbc370) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:30 pmI mean, it’s fine to acknowledge good actions by any politician. And important.

Interesting read– fifty shades of grey. But if his name was Ronald Takkadump and not Donald Trump tweeting the same stuff chances are he’d get his account reviews if not yanked.

g6loq (fc61d6) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:53 pmWell, Beldar, rather than opine boredom, put your skills to use: you’ve got a thread full of lawyers to banter with so make like one:
Skim the set Twitter guidelines and make an argument for or against yanking Trump’s Twitter account for violations based on his tweet content and pattern in conjunction w/their posted ‘rules.’ It’s a NYSE firm w/a BoD and stockholders who might be amused.
DCSCA (797bc0) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:53 pmBecause We are in a cold civil war and the left says any Republican is the “worst ever” and is trying to murder and enslave the populace.
We are sick of taking it time and time again. He fights and he actually gets some results.
Now if our side would focus more on getting Obamacare repealed and reducing regulations as well as cutting taxes instead of caring that he actually calls out the leftist media that spews hate at him all day we would be in a good place.
NJRob (1ca9bb) — 6/29/2017 @ 6:59 pm@69. Dana- see #110.
A good lawyer should be able to make a case whether to keep or yank Trump’s account from Twitter based on his content and their posted guidelines.

narciso (d1f714) — 6/29/2017 @ 7:21 pmLet’s make it as simple as possible so that you there is no misunderstanding:
1) The Tea Party was a result of politicians ignoring the will of the people. Politicians rewarded failure – e.g. bank bailouts – and punished success by increasing taxes and the number of pages in the Federal Register, not to mention abdicating their responsibility to legislate to the judiciary and the millions of bureaucrats in DC.
2) The politicians defeated the Tea Party. Or so they thought – Trump was the next response from the people.
3) When the establishment cuts Trump off at the knees, the next response from the people will make Trump look like a walk in the park.
Moral of this arc of history – keep bashing Trump. Because that’s how you get worse than Trump.

Meanwhile, the wife of the true ‘Man Of The People’…..
“Amid a deepening federal investigation of Jane Sanders, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders’ wife, Judicial Watch has obtained records that paint a rather disturbing personal portrait of a heartless spouse—and longtime political advisor—of the Democratic Socialist candidate for president of the United States. During the Obama administration, the FBI began investigating Jane for falsifying documents to obtain a $10 million loan to expand a now-defunct liberal arts college in a town where her husband once served as mayor while she was the school’s president.
The loan went through, some allege after her husband’s senatorial office pressured the bank to approve it, and Jane masterminded a deal to purchase an undeveloped, 32-acre parcel of land and a 77,000-square-foot facility from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington. The purchase included a facility that served as a group home for disabled people and, under the terms of the deal, Jane was supposed to negotiate the transfer of the disabled residents before the school took over the property. Instead Jane tried to kick the disabled people out of their group home, records obtained by Judicial Watch show.”

He spent 6 minutes between the two tweets, and the first one trailed off and needed anotehr one. Six minutes is longer than average for him, I think, so he must have composed something and then backspaced. He could have taken a telephone call, but it’s not that likely, and a call would have lasted longer.
He could also have tried and failed to use Google\ but that’s actually not too likely.

Sammy Finkelman (03c829) — 6/30/2017 @ 6:27 amDana,
I greatly appreciate your commentary, which represents integrity. You’ve explained it well. We hold our presidents to a high standard when they are from the opposing party, and we do so because of our values, not because we are hacks. Therefore we hold a Republican president to the same standard.
The justifications for bias in this thread, that ‘they want to kill us’, etc, are laziness. If things are that serious, it’s more important than ever that we live up to standards.
CNN’s mistakes are amusing to watch unfold. They let partisanship get ahead of integrity. But while Trump’s fans are delighted that CNN has been shamed (and it is delightful) they should remember they are just as foolish if they do the same thing, only for their side.
The real problem is not that we’re in a desperate hour of our nation’s history or anything so dramatic. The real problem is that to support Trump, you really have to be a total hack. He’s just that awful. The way he speaks to this country, conducts his business, abuses his privileges, it’s absurd.
BS. Most Americans did not want this man to be president. Most Republicans did not want this man to be nominated. The idea that if we keep criticizing him we invite the terrible wrath is laughable. Remember, Trump is such a weak leader that millions more Americans voted for Hillary, who we all agree was terrible. Trump’s fans would do well to remember just how weak their political position is, and how little Trump is accomplishing.

You come here, insult people regularly, and get your panties in a twist when Trump insults those who insult him.
pffft.
Beldar, Patterico, and Dana have a consistent moral tone they adhere to – I disagree with their opinion, but they are not hacks.
Mika makes sex jokes with Trump as the butt, and you are outraged that he returns the favor.
The working class human sees this in real life every day. Want more Trump? Nothing about the outrage expressed in these breathless posts about the classless Trump tweets convinces me that Trump is anything other than who was elected.
If someone better comes along, Trump will lose – but the Press and the GOPe did everything they could do to destroy anyone better.
We are living in a time of the worst political leaders in our history, serving the most degraded culture in our nation’s history. We mock and lie about any worthy leader, then wonder why we only get celebrities who have run the Media gamut as “leaders”.

Now he explains…
The first comments are not too bad – not vicious. We see no apology, or a statement that it was a mistake or he’s sorry he said it. This probably does not but resolve a contradiction, because I think he means he watched it today.
This is what the National Enquirer mention is about. It’s a complicated story.
http://www.newsweek.com/trump-morning-joe-mika-scarborough-630306
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/donald-trump-is-not-well/2017/06/30/97759ee0-5d0f-11e7-9b7d-14576dc0f39d_story.html?utm_term=.a5c51431c583
It seems like the Natioonal Enquirer was trying to get some kind of a negative story about Mika Brzezinski for months, even staking out Mika Brzezinski’s house and trying to talk (via telephone) to her teenage daughters, and also close friends of hers. Probably in an effort to get something on the record from Mika, which would then become a libel proof source, they were telling her that her ex-husband had told them something. But Mika knew that wouldn’t be true.
Joe Scarborough called the White House, and they were told Trump would put in a word for her at the National Enquirer, which is believed to friendly to him, if he (Joe S.) would call the president and apologize for his coverage. So now they are saying the whole thing was blackmail. Trump tweets he never contacted Joe – Joe contacted him.
Trump used to be a friendly guest but they got into a feud last year.
Scarborough and Brzezinski were going to start a vacation today but they stayed one more day so they could respond to whatever.

“…..if we keep criticizing him we invite the terrible wrath is laughable.”
I, and I suspect many Americans, couldn’t care less if someone criticizes Trump. Yet what’s happening goes way beyond “criticism”. The collective insanity of the media, lefties, and GOPe include felonies that are being committed to remove him, and other GOP pols, from office —- after an election that conformed to our laws. This coup is less of a problem with some on this blog than the fact that we have a cretin in the White House. For me, that is infinitely more troublesome than a bloviating narcissist whom many see as someone who is figuratively punching bullies in the nose, bullies who have called these normal Americans racist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic, rubes who don’t know what’s best for them.
“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”
—- JFK
Go ahead and criticize. Keep telling yourself that appointing Gorsuch, enforcing our immigration laws, abandoning the Paris Climate Accord, unleashing our energy sector, reining in the EPA and other Federal bureaucracies is “how little Trump is accomplishing”. If only the GOP had a majority in Congress…..oh, wait.
Lenny (5ea732) — 6/30/2017 @ 8:13 amTell it like it is Lenny. Try to recall it wasn’t Trump who called each and every one of us *deplorables*. Trump didn’t tell us who worked 20 hour days to build our businesses that *you didn’t build that*. Trump didn’t say we *cling to our Bibles and guns* as a slur against working class America. And Trump isn’t giving *sanctuary* to aliens who steal citizens tax money in the form of welfare, steal citizens franchise in the form of vote fraud, risk citizens health by importing disease-guns-drugs and gangs, and rape and murder our fellow Americans. That’s all on the left. The Democrats. The party who values a dead fetus over a live citizen. The party that is fully committed to the lie that there are more than two *genders* of humans. The party of hate, racism, death and lies.

Maxine Waters says ‘700 BILLION’ will lose coverage with O’care reform
No, she didn’t. I don’t know who keeps on pumping out this kind of propaganda, but it ought to stop and peple ought to stop repeating these kinds of things as fact. It gets in the way of genuine criticism, and there’s plenty to criticize about Maxine Waters.
The link clearly shows she was talking about 700 billion Dollars.
(I don’t know if that is any way a legitimate number; it probably is in some way, but it is also probably wrong and misleading, but she did not say 700 billion people would be cut from Medicaid rolls.)
While she didn’t say Dollars either, that’s what it means.
Here is the exact quotation from the article:
Money, not people!
Eliminating 700 billion in funding.
The word “Eliminate” always goes with funding or something with a similar meaning. That’s regular Congress-speak. How many times have you heard soundbytes that go like that?
Claiming or pretending she meant the number of people losing Medicaid was 700 billion just makes someone feel smart when they are really stupid. Just a little bit of evaluation will reveal it to be wrong, if you can read about an 8th grade level. No, 8th grade is already too much.
Whoever is pumping this out wants people to feel superior to all the politicians maybe. Except it has no impact on people on the other side. No wonder the political divide is more or less stable. Each side wants people to feel the politicians on the other side are really stupid, ignorant, corrupt or evil.
And it’s not enough to be a little bit stupid, ignorant or bad. No, they’ve got to be unbelievably stupid or evil, so much so you can’t imagine how anybody could be that way. They are not most of the time.

Trump just refused to help try to kill that story unless they were on good terms again. That’s not being generous, but it’s not blackmail. The story is dead anyway because the National Enquirer doesn’t really have anything. It could be that that’s why they announced they would be getting married.

“For years, college campuses across the country have been conducting witch hunts to expel or punish men accused of sexual assault. Those may soon be coming to an end, thanks to the Trump administration.
Colleges and universities have conducted these witch hunts at the order of the U.S. Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights, which during the Obama administration issued a “Dear Colleague” letter and additional guidance that all but assured students accused of sexual assault would not get a fair hearing.
These campus star chambers, conducted behind closed doors and hidden by federal privacy laws, have resulted in an unknown number of expulsions. More than 100 of these punished students have sued or are now suing their universities for violating their due process rights and discriminating against them because of their sex.”

Contrary to the overwrought claims of the article, I don’t see how the preponderance of evidence standard, per se, is a barrier to the accused receiving a fair hearing. The same standard is used in most (all?) civil cases.
The campus hearing (“star chamber”…LOL, dramatize much?) is not a criminal trial of the accused. It is an attempt to determine whether a remedy within the university for harassment is warranted.
Unlike a criminal trial, where the “beyond a reasonable doubt” standard is appropriate in protecting an individual from the massive power of the state, a harassment hearing is like a civil suit between two similarly situated private parties.
Either party in a civil suit may appeal an unfavorable judgment. That is not “double jeopardy”, nor is allowing the plaintiff in a harassment hearing to appeal.
I don’t doubt that there has been bias in favor of the accuser in some cases, and that is wrong and should be addressed. But it seems to me that adopting a “reasonable doubt” standard would massively (and formally) bias the process in the other direction.

Indeed.
It is remarkable how little conservative accomplishments matter. I think it speaks volumes about the core values of Trump’s “conservative” critics.
It is also important to consider how much accomplishments matter to those on the Left. For them, advancing the Leftist cause is of paramount importance and the shortcomings of their leadership is, at best, an afterthought.
With this sort of asymmetry, those who value conservative accomplishments will always come out on the short end, a painful reality that seems lost on Trump’s critics on the Right.

Blah (44eaa0) — 7/1/2017 @ 4:47 am#251 It is pretty funny when you think about it. Conservatives spend years crying about having a POTUS who governs from the Right, now they get him, but focus on his flaws.
But this is why I mock and deride the “Country Club” mindset that many Republicans have.
Because it is really not about them wanting a Conservative POTUS, it is about them wanting a POTUS who 1) sounds conservative even if he governs from the Left (like Bush) and 2) does not make them uncomfortable in front of their Leftist Friends.
Worse yet, I don’t even think Orange Man has gone far right enough. Imagine how horrified certain “Conservatives” will be when this happens. All their Left Wing Friends and Family will call them deplorables!
Count me as one who does not take Trump’s personal ugly behavior as a mark of a bad POTUS, just a bad person. I could care less what kind of jerk he is so long as he pushes us RIGHTWARD. Because Leftism is a vicious cycle and Conservatism is a virtuous one.
I prefer virtue producing POTUS policies over a someone

He won his district by 59%-38% to Trump’s 52%-42% versus Hillary.

— You said you were going to build a wall!
— We passed Kate’s Law!
— How about hiring some more Border Patrol?
— We passed Kate’s Law!
— What happened to repealing Obamacare and replacing with something cheaper and better?
— We passed Kate’s Law!
— We have a $20 trillion debt!
— We confirmed Gorsuch!
Etc., etc,. etc., you know what I mean.

I don’t use twitter. Trump’s the one with nothing better to do with his day than troll people on Twitter. I’m afraid I just don’t have time for that kind of thing, antisemite.
You can laugh that Americans find Trump’s behavior as president to be crude. Laugh all day I guess. He’s the king troll, and lots of antisemites love him.
Dustin (ba94b2) — 7/1/2017 @ 6:28 amThor,
Trump’s Obamacare plan is an pretty clear cut betrayal of conservative values, insomuch as Trump ever really proposed a conservative platform (he initially wanted single-payer like Bernie).
Trump’s platform speech was one huge government program after another. Aside from being forced to nominate Gorsuch (thanks to McConnell’s hard work), what has Trump actually accomplished of lasting impact for conservatives? Every EO can be wiped away, but what about legislation? Trump is so busy tweeting nasty stuff that he has failed to build any momentum. He’s a weak leader. And he’s not really a conservative.
Dustin (ba94b2) — 7/1/2017 @ 6:30 amWhat a disgrace!
Dustin (ba94b2) — 7/1/2017 @ 6:34 amI don’t like mcturtlecare, its like sending your puppy to the taxidermists, but the loudest critics are the ones like heller and murkowski who say it doesn’t promise enough.
But the grishenko snipe hunt that has consumed the last six months has served no purpose except possibly putin who set the plan in motion with the dossier.

urbanleftbehind (847a06) — 7/1/2017 @ 6:51 amIt’s completely hamstrung Trump. What do you mean it’s served no purpose? All they have to do is dance a criticism in front of his face and it’s another week of news about Trump’s bizarre behavior in reaction. He just doesn’t have the fortitude to be president. Tweet tweet tweet.
Putin was probably working with Flynn’s lieutenants. That whole dossier on Hillary was something the Trump campaign will eventually have to admit it’s accountable for. To some extent I don’t know why they don’t just admit it. It’s op research, Hillary was definitely up to bad things… so how bad is it exactly that the voters knew about the information on election day? That the Trump campaign is so scared of the investigation really makes me wonder what we’re going to learn.

– Dustin
There seems little doubt that the Republican leadership is stonewalling ObamaCare repeal. Just yesterday McConnell made that point perfectly clear. I would like to get to repeal, but it isn’t Trump who is to blame. I have to say, I find it astounding just how brazenly the Republican Caucus and, especially, the leadership are willing to lie about repeal. They have no shame. To blame Trump for the failure to pass repeal, which just this week he was pushing for yet again, is disingenuous nonsense.
Happy has been on this since Day 1.

I was totally out of line and was being an a-hole to a fine guy. I made myself the fool. Deservedly. I would like to add I am thoroughly ashamed of myself for lashing out at a valuable and decent commenter and person.

If the facts that my late wife and step grand father were Jewish as well as having grown up in Philly among many Jewish friends wasn’t enough, I am also Chairman of the Holy Land Committee at my church. We raise money in support of Israel as well as for the costs of immigration for European Jews to go to Israel.

DCSCA (797bc0) — 7/1/2017 @ 12:39 pmi’m on restriction Mr. mg 🙁
it’s kinda my 2017 thing
i do asceticisms for awhile and then do something Chicagospecial
i figure i won’t be here all too much longer since the taxings are going up way way faster than my income
and when i leave here i really want to have done about 99% of all the fun fine dining and such a pikachu needs to ever do is whole life
so i need to check the boxes
my next one is a chef tasting at topo – they got a fancy award for being the most tasty restaurant in the whole nation! (last year it went to alinea which is here too)
i went and did their prixer fixer lunch a little while ago of cause i had to make a show of taking an honored co-worker who i largely detest out to lunch cause of they resigned (some of you guys may remember my freaky stalker we talked a lil bit about when i first moved here)
anyways the recently-remodeled dining room was beautiful but the lunch was honestly nothing special – the server was sort of not on top of his game and he let us order side plates only for us to see many of the elements re-appear in the lunch courses (lame)
it was good food but overall i felt like we didn’t get an award-winning experience
so I’m a take sister and her new fiance there in a couple weeks
i’m economizing and not taking a date so it’ll be an awkward 3-top
i suspect we’ll do the max number of courses (they offer a subset)
but we’ll forego the wine pairing – sister doesn’t drink and my prospective new bil isn’t a wine guy
my fave thing at lunch was a smoky tequila cocktail so I want to explore their cocktail menu more
also their desserts were fun and creative (and even a little challenging) with muy authentico ingredientes sabrosa
(oh and fingers crossed on the fiance thing it’s not official ring-on-it thing yet but this one’s for sure a keeper)

what we got was an excellent beautiful mole-accompanied asada, and i doubt i could easily find better here
but me and NG used to get mole what was every bit as good in LA for like $8.99 a plate
so it was fun to revisit the flavors but i felt like i hadn’t really chalked up much in the way of expanded horizons

Pinandpuller (7605ce) — 7/1/2017 @ 1:46 pmat topo we figured the tamales were not to be missed so we got that as a starter
they’re those darling lil petit four tamales sitting on some sauce with a bit of relish on the side you can play with
(and you’re remindered that this is actually a “tamal” you’re eating)
anyways that lil tamal came back to accompany the asada
so what was the point in getting it as a starter?
it was probably very clearly printed on the menu but when you do a prixer fixer you just choose chicken beef fish or vegetarian basically, and you’re not necessarily auditing the whole thing
so my feel is that the server should’ve pointed that out
we also got some kind of ceviche only to get more with the lunch
which is fine and yes mostly my fault but they still ended up serving a silly meal, which i would assume they don’t feel very good about themselves when they do that
and I hate that for them

For some reason I always thought Mr. Bojangles was a Jim Croce number. Learn something new every day.

He moved to Chicago. That’s kind of like from the frying pan into the fire.
kishnevi (d764f4) — 7/2/2017 @ 8:57 amit’s getting that way it really is Mr. kishnevi
oh it’s for reals oop?
i been having trouble with a lot of the remastered older songs i get from amazon though – i put them in a playlist and when they come up you can hardly hear them cause they don’t have the right volume level
so it becomes a dreary exercise a lot of times

Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 7/2/2017 @ 9:33 amOh, that’s another woman. I was thinking about Inga Avard (JFK called her “Inga Binga”) I’ll have to look it up. I don’t think any of that material made the newspapers.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellen_Rometsch
So, she might have been a call girl, although more likely a madam, with very little reason too auppose she would have worked for East Germany, and if she had affairs, it’s unlikely she had one with JFK. RFK might have intervened to get her expelled.
Donald Ritchie of the Senate Historical Office interviewed Bobby Baker in 2009 and 2010, when he was past 80, resulting in a 230=page manuscript (not posted online) excerpts f which were published by Politico in 2013 some more of which was quoted in the Daily Mail. He claimed to know she had had an affair with JFK – and also with Gerald Ford in 1964 while he was on the Warren Commission (but wasn’t she gone from the United States by that time, according to Wikipedia? Baker claimed (circa 2010) that J. Edgar Hoover had this tape where Jerry Ford with Ellen Rometsch and Hoover used that to gte information. I don’t think Ford is supsected of anything like this at all.

The Quorum Club, where she was a hostess was (or is assumed to have been) organized by Baker.
There are lots of stories. It’s probably difficult to piece together what is true and what is not true.
After the fall of Communism, her name was never found in the Stasi files (maybe not an absolute proof of innocence) and the basis for the accusation was that the KGB and its satellite agencies were known to use “honey traps” and that, before her escape from East Germany, she had been a member of a Communist youth group.

The salute was to hf leaving CA without getting killed or caught… his final destination tells me he’ll need to execute another escape before those tax addicts try to enact an exit tax.
In which case the lyrics change to: If I can just get off this Chicago freeway without getting killed or caught.
One of my favorites was sung by Travis Tritt (not a favorite usually) in a nod of the hat to Charlie Daniels https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWVtmbu7FWw
If I’m not hurting anybody just leave me the f alone
