You’re absolutely high if you think anything Trump does is for the benefit of a party or anyone else besides himself.

Don't care why he does it, but the fact that Donny is out there swinging in states to help get people elected when other Presidents just sat back in their first midterm and took the losses because that's the way it's supposed to be tells me you are full of shit......per usual.

He’s going to be 50 miles west of me this weekend, campaigning for candidates in a state that’s brick red, he won by 20 points, and should be no contest.  The party is already giving up on Yoder and practically conceding D3.  The loss of D2 is also a possibility.  Yeah - I’m the one who’s full of shit.    *****rollingeyes*****

Let’s get back to your point about punching back.....

Now that Trump has opened this Pandora’s box, those of you that like it can’t have it both ways.  When he talks about his ‘big brain’ or his ‘best people,’ you can’t complain when he opens himself up to ridicule over it, which he has, repeatedly. 

Similarly, you can’t whine when the best defense an Ivy League educated, great legal mind, solid SCOTUS choice can muster is saying, “I like beer” 100 times in testimony, then gets lampooned over it.  The sword cuts both ways.  Enjoy the fruits of the bullf*ckery tree you planted, fertilized, and watered.

You can view the President through that prism if you want to, but all the facts contradict you.

I have no problem at all with anyone making fun of Al Franken.  He's a joke waiting to happen.

It serves to inject this idiot Frankin back into the news cycle to remind everyone that while the Rats charge Kav with this shit, they actually do it.

Exactly. Trump’s not a “bull in a china shop.” That’s a poor description of how he operates. Trump calculates, intuitively from his years in the public eye and seeing how the media operates. Plus, he’s quick at assessing people. That really helps cut through the bs.

I'm sure Rush will do 10 minutes tomorrow on the brilliant 4D chess move by Trump here.  Thank goodness we have a "Trump whisperer" to clue us in everyday. /sarc

Rush Limbaugh, a Trump Whisperer...?

Cute.   

But you have to admit that what Rush says (his explanation) about what "seemingly stupid" things Trump says or tweets is logical, if perceived through a prism of 'calculated for effect'.   Rush apparently knows Trump better than anyone, re: that.

I seem to recall the nation was doing pretty well, economically, under Bush 43, until summer 2008.  That time bomb was built by Carter and strengthened by Clinton.  W repeatedly warned the subprime loans were going to be a problem.  Nobody cared....until they did....then blamed him for it.     :shrug:

Make no mistake.   The rabid left Democrats melted down the economy deliberately.... all just so they could blame Bush and win the next election.  And... it worked like a charm.   Which is why I am nervous about them doing it again.  They can NOT be allowed to tank the economy.  God knows what we'd get in the WH as a result.  Someone even worse than Obama...?  (I shudder to think)

Of course it will be worse.  Look at the people winning primaries and replacing their Old Guard. This whole disaster with Kavanaugh was were orchestrated by Feinstein. When she's finally gone, something a lot worse will follow, given that state's recent voting history.

Feinstein's general election opponent is Kevin De Leon, author of the bill that provided for Sanctuary Cities in California.


Bill apparently just judged to be unconstitutional, or not enforceable on my city, and perhaps county too.

Kudos, Ed.  You managed to post an erroneous sentiment but at least it was insult free.

By the way, what are these 'facts' of which you speak?

Pretty sure you’re on record as having said it would have been better to have voted for Hillary during the election.  As disdainful as I am of Trump, I’d never entertain the thought of voting for a Clinton or any other Dem I can think of.  Yet, on more than one occasion, you’ve called me a Dem plant.

@edpc I am not on record in any known universe as having said it would be better to vote for Hillary.

And I have never called you a democrat plant.

I demand a retraction.  And I want it now.

Ha, ha, but I am really insulted and wrongly accused.  I doubt if Ed will have the guts to apologize though.

I seem to have a problem with posters that personally insult other members ... for "some" reason (just funny that way).  Dissing someone's political stance, comments and ideology is one thing.... but you take it to a whole other level... ie not political.

You asked.

I know.  You chose to insult me for the way I responded to another member which was not all that bad and basically none of your business.

Apparently, you had no problem at all with Ed insulting and lying about me.  Way to choose your battles, but I thought you were a good guy and I'm glad I know the truth now.

I’m pretty sure another member can back me up on the first point, but I’m not going to ping her over it. Neither one of us have a very high opinion of you, anyway. So, you can probably guess who it is.

As far as being called a Democrat plant goes, yes – you most certainly did and more than once. If the search function worked better, I could pull the various times and link them.   I know for certain that one of them was during the time when Nunes first released his memo and we had a thread discussing it. Specifically, you and Anubias decided I was an opposition mole.  Thank God that miserable sow left long ago.   I’m not going to search through 400+ pages of my postings to prove something you know and I know is a fact.
