I've been reading without chiming in, but, now...Jesus, the wailing and gnashing of teeth and 'We are doomed forevermore' stuff...it's like a poorly-written comic book in here...

Justin Trudeau can save us. Donald seems to be as enamored with him as everyone else is.

Trump's answer during his press conference with Israeli PM, Benjamin Netanyahu, at which an Israeli reporter asked Trump a question about the contribution his own rhetoric may have made to the United States' recent rise in anti-Semitic violence:
Trump wrote:
Well, I just want to say that we are, you know, very honored by the victory that we had. 306 electoral college votes. We were not supposed to crack 220. You know that, right? There was no way to 221 but then they said there’s no way to 270. And there’s tremendous enthusiasm out there. I will say that we are going to have peace in this country. We are going to stop crime in this country. We are going to do everything within our power to stop long-simmering racism and every other thing that’s going on, because a lot of bad things have been taking place over a long period of time. I think one of the reasons I won the election is because we have a very, very divided nation. Very divided, and hopefully, I’ll be able to do something about that. And I—you know, it's something that was very important to me.
As far as people, Jewish people—so many friends, a daughter who happens to be here right now. A son-in-law, and three beautiful grandchildren. I think that you’re going to see a lot of different United States of America over the next three, four, or eight years. I think a lot of good things are happening and you’re going to see a lot of love. You’re going to see a lot of love. OK? Thank you. |

Any time in the future I want to NOT answer a question, I'm going with this.

@Brian Miller
Just once don't you want to see reporters stop him after an answer like that and tell him they have never heard such convoluted bullshit ever in their lives and insist that he give a straight answer to the question given?

Yes, David. But we both know it will never happen.

Dan Rather pushed back at Nixon in 1974 and liberals and conservatives alike have brandished this exchange for years as an example of outta control press pursuing its own agenda.

Looks like they are starting to grow a pair - Matt Lauer's interview with Conway was pretty good - LINK

So many in Congress are afraid to get on Trump's bad side or have no conscience.
How can any House/Senate GOP member even stand to look at themselves in the mirror each morning?? The lack of integrity and hyprocricy is reaching epic proportions. When is someone gonna grow a pair, step up and say enough!?!?

I keep reading about how the walls are closing in on him and all I can think is yeah, there's no way he'll get the Republican nomination now.
