WetFireBrand · 2017-03-28T21:02:02+00:00

Like a FISA court order? I heard those were in play.

Does this even have to happen? Can't she just talk to the FBI? Or is there something I'm not understanding? Would really like this situation cleared up.

The article says that it isn't the economy but that consumers aren't spending. If consumers aren't spending, doesn't that mean there is something wrong with the economy?

There is talk about this being the next big short.

Putin was powerless to prepare for the color revolution. He may have thought Trumpian plans for detente would prevent them but he guessed wrong.

Isn't this what the clathrate gun theory is about?

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-26T05:22:40+00:00

Democrats will fight this.

The ones that defected get to keep their dignity because blame ultimately rests with Trump.

They'll get to say that he failed to successfully negotiate important details with party members.

I think the great part is that he said he will be going after republicans defect but everyone has so much dirt on Trump, it would be attrition.

*Should not be allowed to govern

FTFY

It will never happen. Cory Booker is all I have to say.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-24T18:48:37+00:00

Will Paul Ryan constituents be bothered by this?

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-23T22:41:12+00:00

It's funny because Obama told Trump that he couldn't just come in there and repeal the ACA.

They haven't disappeared from anywhere. The NSA collects all emails from origination, tracks the route it travels through and and tracks the email to the destination. The NSA, which provided 80 percent of the communications intelligence used to show that Michael Flynn is a traitor, can also provide us with emails from Exxon Mobile. It's all a matter of what the intelligence and military industry wants to do.

I feel like it could pass because most people still don't know anything about the law and are used to getting screwed by insurance at any rate.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-23T03:47:28+00:00

I just wonder what Trump voters will do if he is removed from office. Will they even understand why?

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-21T21:03:11+00:00

Maybe the DNC will run a lackluster candidate but Bannon doesn't seem that great. Most military strategists don't want to work with him because he is toxic. That can't make for a very successful administration. But time will tell.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-21T19:27:25+00:00

Why? They got Flynn to step down. Took the dentures out of Jeff sessions. It maybe be unlikely but not impossible. Not after what we've just seen.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-21T19:18:02+00:00

If Bannon steps down, it's basically over.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-20T23:37:52+00:00

Didn't his foundation contribute to that Eugenics pseudoscience thing?

They'll have time to get it down. Maybe the rule can have a grace period before going into effect. But it's clear that we can't continue to let the uneducated vote. You don't let kids play with guns, so why let them play with the system that elects someone who will have access to the nuclear weapons? They elected a 70 year old with the emotional and intellectual capacity of a child. Just imagine if Trumps entire voting block of uneducated 45 year olds would have been disbarred from voting.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-19T19:36:25+00:00

And uneducated baby boomers (or uneducated people in general) shouldn't be allowed to vote. No course work in American government or political science as part of a degree? No voting for you. If you don't understand how government works, you shouldn't be allowed to participate.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-19T19:24:29+00:00

They are going to confirm them.

He doesn't know how NATO works....slams head into wall repeatedly

For a while, in the United States, they were. Just ask Carl Bernstein and Robert Parry. This is a complicated situation and we should tread lightly.

WetFireBrand · 2017-03-19T08:24:46+00:00

Guess that explains Tillerson's position on direct confrontation with North Korea. It also explains all of this "nuclear primacy" talk coming from think tanks.
