Says the guy who is lapping up everything Barr is feeding you.
He's just being honest... that doesn't make him a lapdog
Thanks Cap.
Here's a pro tip, just cause someone is "being honest" doesn't make them anywhere close to being right.
If you or anyone else thinks Barr is playing this straight, I got a bridge to sell you.
It’s unreal , a crook in a suit !

Some of you might remember a little while back my mentioning having a friend (extended family member really) who voted for Trump. I saw him today and we talked awhile about fire safety (a major concern here in the Sierra foothills). He's a retired fire fighter- a damn good one at that- dedicated, knowledgeable, the kind of guy who would literally give you the shirt off his back.
Oh, and he was wearing one of these:
Yeah, I know what you're thinking. I get it! It's like, WITHF (what in the holy fuck)?
But I have to say, you can't judge people by this shit. I would trust this guy 10 times more than a so-called "liberal" who talks the talk but when it comes to helping other people it's like... "oh, sorry, I'm busy today". My point is, you just can't judge people by the shit they say. It's about what they do.

Didn't vote for the guy. Don't like how he is such a dick all the time to people as a leader of this country when he's acting like a jackass at his rallies that turn into these spectacles of suck ups wanting to lick his shoes. The whole Russia thing seems crazy strange. I think the report probably shows that Russia did a lot to help him via social media because they could and it's easy and inexpensive. Did it cause him to win? No clue. Maybe? But he should be saying "no way, we're going to make sure nobody interferes with our elections" instead he denies any issue at all and acts like it invalidates his presidency.
If anything, the report is probably embarrassing to him that he was clueless about most of the meddling and that his team was bumbling more than devious and calculating except for self-serving issues. His behavior is weird with Russia, wanting to meet with Putin privately over and over, what the hell is he doing there? We know he doesn't have a real plan, he wings it all the time, is he going in and saying "I'm having fun, what can I do to make you like me?" It wouldn't be a surprise. I doubt it's going to send a bunch of people to jail, if it was doing that, there would already be fireworks. What we'll have is a validation that they were shocked that they won, thought that Trump was going to probably lose the election but start his own Trump branded media play with Bannon at the helm with Donald having a daily rip fest on Hillary and second guess everything she does. Remember how the election was Rigged? He said it was over and over but, he won, so was it rigged for him?
The guy makes up stuff so much and is beholden to nobody if voters are fine with this. He lies so much it's silly, and why people are good with it is beyond me. He doesn't have to be an angel, but Hell, could he try to be a leader rather than a celebrity? This is what a Limbaugh/Hannity presidency is, a lot of finger pointing, name calling and a lot of cheer lines from the right. It's not inspiring, it's trashy.
Trump is the epitome of what the right has begged for since the days of Reagan, a businessman. Well, they thought W Bush was but Trump is the guy. They worship the idea of a businessman running things. It's surprising how little he actually leads, which is what should have been his total strong suit. Where's the business planning, the way to get to a goal and deliver and expect excellence? It's just Donald being Donald and not a surprise.

uh oh...
You are right. He has his reasons...
I think I'm at least partly wrong. I posted this after a hard day at work, dead tired, cross-eyed and keeling over. I guess I mean actions speak louder than words, but, you know, I mean... awwww screw it, I'm hitting the pillow...

Where did either of us say anything about Barr? He just pointed out the obvious, how many times have we heard the boy cry wolf so far? Gonna be a gig friday, gonna take Trump down, good morning patriots... seriously, it seems I've heard that shit weekly for 2 years... i think his message is just stop already with the hype, and get ready for 2020
You guys have a one track mind right now and need a Trump cleanse lol, literally knowhere did he say anything about Barr
"The tariffs are hurting China very badly. They don’t want them. And frankly, if we can make the deal, it’d be my honor to remove them. But otherwise, we’re having many billions of dollars pouring into our Treasury. We’ve never had that before with China. It’s been very much of a one-way street.
So, that’s happening. And the relationship with China is very good, but I think they finally respect our country. They haven’t respected us for a long time. Not for a long time."
That's how Don Trump spent the anniversary of Parkland. He worthless yo. He also doesn't understand what a tariff is, or anything about global trade for that matter.
He should have been removed from office the first week of this dangerous experiment with OUR democracy. Electoral College...how stupid.
remember when Don Trump said that THIS guy was an acceptable candidate for the US Senate? That was when he said that NFL owners (a club he will never join...just couldn't get the money to look right) should go fire those kneeling sons of bitches. that was awesome...
Fired for exercising the right of free speech. You know, it's in the A block of the amendments to the United States Constitution. They actually lead with it. The first sig on that doc? George F. Washington.
What exactly will it take to get this to stop happening? What do R's even want at this point? They seem beyond help.

Twice as many companies paying zero taxes under Trump tax plan
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act lowered the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent. In its first year, the number of companies paying no taxes went from 30 to 60.
Taxpayers are scrambling to make last-minute payments due to the Internal Revenue Service in just four days, but many of the country's largest publicly-held corporations are doing better: They've reported they owe absolutely nothing on the billions of dollars in profits they earned last year.
At least 60 companies reported that their 2018 federal tax rates amounted to effectively zero, or even less than zero, on income earned on U.S. operations, according to an analysis released today by the Washington, D.C.-based think tank, the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy. The number is more than twice as many as ITEP found roughly, per year, on average in an earlier, multi-year analysis before the new tax law went into effect.
Among them are household names like technology giant Amazon.com Inc. and entertainment streaming service Netflix Inc., in addition to global oil giant Chevron Corp., pharmaceutical manufacturer Eli Lilly and Co., and farming and commercial equipment manufacturer Deere & Co.
In the meantime... have Californians gotten down to business and swept their forest floors yet? Heat's around the corner ya know.
It is a fact that the US' alpha male- the embodiment of the American citizen- is a brain damaged baboon. More an orangutan I guess.
LOL, get out the brooms!
We went to a local district fire council meeting the other day. Normally these meetings are poorly attended but after last years Camp Fire and the near total destruction of the town of Paradise, Calif., even despite the good rain we had this winter, people are nervous. The attendance was huge. Standing room only. The dry season is coming soon and can last six months or more. And Buffoon say sweep the forest. An amazing ill-informed man.

I’m positive there are things one could nail Trump on; however, I don’t think Trump is getting nailed for anything.
And every ‘little’ failure looks bad on the folks trying desperately to take him down.
Trump will either be taken down at the polls or he’s the embodiment of America for another four years. It’s come to that.
My gawd he’s fat and ugly. And loathsome. Eesh.

Let's find out what Julian knows about this.
Company man. Sad.
That was when he said that NFL owners (a club he will never join...just couldn't get the money to look right) should go fire those kneeling sons of bitches.
that was awesome...

The Lou Dobbs show got the numbers wrong (or did so purposely?). The 55% actually reflects his disapproval rating.
All 50 states were hacked what has this administration done to fix this for 2020 zero nada zilch , the Baffoon is hoping Russia helps again!
