QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:52 PM) It's just scary for the biggest reason, at some point something terrible will happen. Their tactic of just lying like crazy to get out of a bad news cycle will come home to roost when people can't trust them for vital information. You know, a major dam is failing in California and there has not been one word from that administration. Not one. This is a moment when they should be out front, trying to ease concern of displaced US citizens, promising emergency disaster relief, help from national guard and army corps of engineers if needed, and we get silence. Spicer instead goes out and makes the lies even worse by creating contradictions from previous statements because YOLO

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 12:07 PM) hey brett any thoughts yet on The Greatest President ever having a compromised Russian stooge as his National Security Advisor despite being told several weeks ago that he was compromised and susceptible to being blackmailed? He is busy using air

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 09:05 AM) For his extreme views, but all indications are he's still not very close to Trump and wasn't for the majority of the general election campaign, either. That said, he's the key bridge between the White House and Congress right now. This asshole went in and confirmed Devos, he lied to the public on behalf of Flynn, if Trump should manage to get impeached then Pence is in charge. This is tier 1

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 09:07 AM) Fun things that have happened in the last 24 days: -Started off day 2 of his Presidency melting down about crowd sizes -Appointed and got confirmed to a Cabinet-level secretaryship a key PAC donor who showed very little understanding of the department she's now running and had ethical and financial disclosure issues (DeVos) -Appointed and got confirmed to Attorney General a man who was racist enough for a 1980's Republican Senate to reject him and who made his first official action to rescind transgendered protections -Approved a badly botched raid that resulted in the death of a Navy SEAL, an 8 year old American girl, and over two dozen civilians and the loss of a multi-million dollar aircraft while failing to accomplish its main objective. It also led to Yemen refusing continued special operations actions. -Lost an entire department of senior international diplomacy personnel to mass resignations; State is now headed by a curiously Russian-friendly former oil company CEO who advocated against Russian sanctions in the past. -Crashed a wedding with the Prime Minister of Japan at his private golf club -Discussed military intelligence surrounding an emergent situation with North Korea in front of a crowd of unvetted civilians and foreign nationals -Allowed unsecured phones to be held over secret briefing documents -Continues to use an unsecured personal phone -Refused to divest himself in any meaningful way from his worldwide business holdings and is likely in direct violation of the terms of his lease for the DC hotel -Forgot to mention Jews in a holocaust remembrance -Kept on as National Security Advisor a man who illegally spoke to Russian diplomats about sanctions against Russia for tampering in the US election and lied about it, despite clear warnings weeks ago that Flynn had lied and was susceptible to blackmail. -Used the office of the President to advertise his daughter's failing clothing line -Repeats unsupported and unsupportable lies about millions of votes being illegally cast -Rushed out a poorly written and extremely poorly implemented ban on travel from seven majority Muslim nations which was halted by the courts after causing mass chaos Probably forgetting a bunch, too. Been an interesting first 24 days. -informed the american public that they will be paying for that wall that isnt needed

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 08:55 AM) DeVos, Sessions, Mnuchin/Munchkin, Tillerson, Puzder (if he survives), Price Tier 1 Threats Pence, Carson, Perry, Ross, Pruitt (EPA) Tier 2 That's not even taking into consideration Bannon, Conway, Spicer, Miller and Priebus. The funny thing is most of America probably couldn't name more than a handful of Obama's cabinet and staff members over the course of a full 8 years. Pence is 200% tier 1

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 08:43 AM) fyp e: Mnuchin wants to appoint some other Goldman Sachs guys to the deputy level, too. Seems like handing over the Treasury department to the same investment bankers who tanked the world economy less than ten years ago is an extremely bad idea, but what do I know? Trump's the Greatest President in the Universe, so this must be a good great thing. Fyp also
-
I just want to point out that while Flynn was getting s***canned, Mnunchin was confirmed. The guy who was busted for predatory loans and funneled 100 million through an offshore bank (and didn't mention that when being vetted, because that was an oversight) was just pushed through and congress was all "cool nbd"

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 08:00 AM) Well the president is using a non-secure phone, a private email server and is discussing state secrets in the middle of a country club dining room. Rock rock rock rock *loooooong sigh* This is fake news. Did you see the presidents approval rating on that one poll? Hillary lost get over it
-
Petraeus interviewed for the position. So we can go from a guy who can't keep state secrets from Russia to a guy who can't keep state secrets from his mistress. Great things

@johnfugelsang Michael Flynn resigns for lying exactly two weeks after Sally Yates is fired for telling the truth.

Great things

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 13, 2017 -> 03:38 PM) Good god, I was about to be a little relieved to go from Flynn to Petraeus, a man who legitimately compromised the states secrets for his mistress, only to find out that this ridiculous man can lie to the public about something as big as thsi with zero repercussions. I'm sure he has been counseled

QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 13, 2017 -> 02:24 PM) Did u read that story on yahoo front page reminding us why it's good Hillary isn't president? My head may be in the sand, but ultimately I think history will prove I was right about voting for neither. After watching XFL 30 on 30 ESPN last night I still love Jesse Ventura. Do you have a link? I just searched yahoo and couldn't find it

QUOTE (brett05 @ Feb 13, 2017 -> 01:39 PM) I have not heard anything on the subject, i would say initially it may not be the smartest choice. Lmao Knows nothing about a national security incident that happened this weekend that every news outlet has covered Knows presidents approval rating from one poll(but can't remember about Gallup)

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 10, 2017 -> 05:22 PM) There is really no point in arguing. The reason they are against Obamacare is the "Obama" part. You had states that Obama offered federal funds to, who turned it down because it came from Obama. There is simply no rational argument, its just personal dislike. Say what you want about Democrats/Republicans, but if Trump/Republicans want to pass better cheaper healthcare, Ill cheer them on. I just dont think they have the capability to do it, seeing as theyve had almost 8 years to figure it out and have no plan yet. Obama told Trump himself that if they can find a cheaper and better alternative, he would get behind it. Just don't repeal until you can replace

So is Trump saying he plans on drafting a newer, shinier travel ban that he will sign next week?
