âItâs not only counterproductive, but an insult to John McCainâs memory to see his lifeless body bouncing and flailing across the National Mall like that. It certainly wasnât necessary for them to exceed 55 miles on the Beltway. Iâd really prefer if the president refrained from such conduct.â [said Mitt Romney] At press time, sources confirmed Trump had further escalated his attacks against the late senator by off-roading with the corpse through the rugged terrain of Rock Creek Park.
Looks like the media arenât going to change their ways just yet.
For example, this story. WaPoâs editorial board could have gone with âConfident of Results, Trump Foregoes a Net.â But nope. If this were Obama, you can bet your life the headline and the story would have been all about âcool under fire.â
Yet despite the potential peril, behind the scenes Trump and his team had made limited preparations in the run-up to Friday, when Mueller finally delivered his much-anticipated report to Attorney General William P. Barr.
They had not coordinated an aggressive response machine, as President Bill Clintonâs aides did ahead of independent counsel Kenneth Starrâs 1998 reportabout Clintonâs relationship with White House intern Monica S. Lewinsky. Surrogates were not mobilized in advance. Talking points were not distributed. A report was prepared to counter Muellerâs findings â but there is internal debate about whether to release it.
I know that when talking about the US people often mention a system of âchecks and balancesââŚbut if thatâs the case, how can a president change the whole public health system in a way that many people considered against the constitution, only to confirm its unconstitutionality several years after the system has been modified and impacted the life of every American citizen?
Was it just a big âOOPSIES, we should have noticed it earlier! Our bad!â
Everything takes time. Ask an electrical engineer.
The checks-and-balances system has much more latency than I would like, but I would like no latency at all, and the laws of physics wonât allow that.
The Russia nonsense turned out to be a shitshow:âLOL LOOK AT OUR POLLS, PEOPLE DONâT CARE ABOUT RUSSIA, NO NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE, LETâS TALK ABOUT A MORE IMPORTANT ISSUE: HEALTH CAREâ
Hilarious. Spoken like a granddad who gazes on his grandchildrenâs interactions at Thanksgiving and thinks htf are these kids ever going to make it, we got work to do.
Iâm sure Mike Leeâs common sense goes right over the heads of AOCâs millennial fans, and will until they get a few more years and some actual life experiences behind 'em.
âThe solution to climate change is not this un-serious resolution that weâre considering this week in the Senate, but rather the serious business of human flourishing,â Lee said. âThe solution to so many of our problems, at all times and in all places, is to fall in love, get married and have some kids.â
So , if I understand correctly , Clapper now says that it was pressure from Obama to conduct this investigation into Trump ? Is he trying to save his own ass ?
