What's funny is the Neo Con hawk among us, and Trumps supporters in general, seem to have no issue with Tough Guy Donnie not doing shit about Russia launching a cyber attack on the American election... won't even acknowledge it... you guys are frauds
Make America Great Again?
The cyber attack was on the DNC and as per Jeh Johnson just this afternoon it is understood that the DNC refused to allow the FBI to examine their hacked server. The GOP acknowledges this happened and are taking this sand other areas of interference very seriously. The Senate just passed a bill 98-2 with respect to additional sanctions and also put in place regulations that would limit Trump's ability to lift sanctions. Hearings are ongoing...did you watch today? Finally Trump has been far tougher on Russia then even his biggest opponents could imagine. The relationship with NATO has actually been bolstered as member states have all volunteered to contribute more (even Canada!) and large scale training missions continue in the Baltics. A tougher stance has been taken against Russian interests in Syria. Finally just yesterday Trump met with Ukrainian leadership to seek closer ties. Ain't no fraud here.
So why is Trump trying to influence the republican congress to pull back on the sanctions? PTAPE?

You spin everything to the right... it's hilarious... where do you read this shit?
They attacked multiple state election offices... we have a poster here who has been open about that in his state... systems... i infrastructure... voter rolls...
And yes they hacked the DNC... which by the way, hacking a major polticsl party is attacking the election... why do you think they went after the DNC? just for fun? Or a blatant attempt to influence the American election, in THEIR favor... it's obvious... unless you have a big glass of red colored kool-aid
Step out of your echo chamber brother, you sound like Hannity & Limbaugh blaming any problem in the world on democrats...
He is President of The United States of America... not president of the Republicans
You are on the wrong side of history
I got my info from DHS secretary Jeh Johnson's testimony today. You should watch it in whole.
I saw sine if his comments today... and I have his opening comments right here... and he clearly states this was an attack on the American election system, and the 2016 presidential election... they hacked the dnc... they hacked Podesta... they hacked MULTIPLE states elections offices... and voter info... and infrstructure... he even states that it has continued the past few months to his knowledge...
You are one of the great spin masters I've ever come across brother... I definitely appreciate your contribution here... you are definitely my favorote self professed neo con ever! you are much cooler than Bill Kristol lol... but you seem to hear what you want to hear my friend and try to find a way to justify or spin it back...
When 7 military service personnel die in an accident... or in any way, frankly... I expect the POTUS to give a fucking statement. And not through Twitter like a 15 year old. Period.
I gotta agree with the first part...the POTUS needs to get in front of a camera on this.
However, if used appropriately, I could see him sending a twitter message first. It's just that he can't do that without being a 15 year old.
I don't have an issue with the president, any president, utilizing social media for official statements. the way trump uses it though, it's as if twitter is the official information supplier of the white house. it just seems so.....nontraditional. unofficial. however you want to put it.
Times change. Presidents used to use radio then TV.
So the question I have is, is trump cutting edge with his use of twitter....or am I just seeing his tweets more than Obama because of how stupid they are?
Cause if he is using it more, he is changing the political landscape moving forward. And it can be a very effective tool. Now we just need someone who isn't a tool using it as president!!
How he uses it is unprofessional, unethical, and an extension of his narcissism. I don't see it as cutting edge.
Let's cut out the bullshit. The way Trump uses Twitter, in his position, is fucking insane. Literally.
It is very much sane. It is essentially how he won the Presidency over the Clinton money machine. I don't like it either but whether politically it currently does him more harm then good is the open question. You were all wrong before...maybe you are wrong again? Maybe? Nah.
I think it's beyond obvious that it hurts him currently, and hurts the nation overall. Can you offer any concrete arguments for how it helps him personally or anyone else? As for sanity... even White House insiders are leaking that he's going batshit crazy.
See Georgia...
No, that doesn't demonstrate that his tweeting helps him or anyone else. Actually, those results demonstrate the opposite.
Right. That district hasn't gone republican since the 70's. The fact that it was this close and that Handel barely mentioned Trump during the campaign should be an indicator of the opposite being true.
No. Sorry. If I am not mistaken the goal of the next congressional election is for democrats to flip red seats where Trump is unpopular. Georgia 6 is a Trump +1 district where his current approval rating is around 35% and yet an unknown Handel outperformed him with a +3. All I have been hearing on here for months is how Trump's tweets and unpopularity will be a weight around every Republican neck and this was the chance to prove it. Instead...failure. If anything Trump voters responded to the nationalization of the race and turned out in numbers not expected for a special election. So again...sorry...there is currently no evidence that Trump's tweets have a significant negative electoral effect and this is the only thing that matters. In two years Handel will be the incumbent and knowing that incumbents win ~ 95% off the time her victory margin will probably be substantially larger. If anything this is a sign that Nancy Pelosi and the #resistance are a far greater weight then Trump's twitter. Running around in black masks and p&ss^ hats is not exactly a winning look in swing districts. Never mind the smashing of windows and shooting of congressmen.
It seems like your own bias is at play here. Perceived negative actions by the left doesn't sway voters, or it even repels them, but negative actions by the right don't have an equal but opposite action?
Of course negative actions by the right can have an equal opposite action. What I am arguing is that even though republicans polled wish Trump would stop tweeting there is currently no evidence that his tweets are having a significant negative electoral effect on the voters he needs. In fact there is more evidence that his tweets have a positive electoral effect just in plain terms of pure wins vs losses. While Trump desperately wants to be loved by the country his strategy was always geared towards winning in enough places by thinner margins. He sacrifices the more country club republican in places like Georgia 6 in order to increase his standing among Rust belt Reagan democrats. So in the end if Handel wins by a narrower margin it is irrelevant as long as the GOP wins in other places that they did not traditionally win. Again...I personally hate his tweeting too...I wish it would stop...but I won't insist that it is ineffective. It is ugly effectiveness.
I don't see his tweeting as having anything to do with the recent elections. I'm not sure where your association is coming from. His tweets give us updates on what he's thinking and what his priorities are. I say keep the tweets coming since they get used against him in hearings.
I am speaking to others on here who are suggesting that his tweets are an absolute negative.
To his base his tweets are awesome.
To anyone with a brain they are mind numbingly stupid
Nobody's condoning shooting people. I'm going to go out on a limb and say we all think that's bad.
I agree but there are very mainstream liberals who, while not condoning it, have suggested that Scalise had it coming based on his voting record. That sentiment is quite distasteful and harms democrats via association in swing districts.
You are making shit up. What "mainstream liberal" said he had a bullet coming?
not one. not a single one. if one of them had, it would have been all over fox news and the alt right internet. there would have been so much pressure on them they would have had to resign their seat.
can we please stop making up bullshit and putting it in the mouths of "mainstream liberals"?
"mainstream liberal" implies that the person in question has name recognition. i am a liberal and i have a working knowledge of pollsters, strategists, and operatives. i have never heard of this person. if i haven't heard of them, they aren't mainstream. regardless, this person is an idiot and i condemn what they said.
got anything from sources other than the washington times?? that paper is a joke.

Just more toxic discourse being spread. And dredging the depths of the interwebs to support his spew. Now, about those tapes and the pressure being put on house republicans by the White House over the Russia sanctions?

Not to mention that the article he linked quotes the local head of the democrat party, clearly another mainstream liberal activist with household name recognition dismissing and condemning party stalwart Devine, the next strategist to occupy the White House.

And he also said there is no evidence that any of the above changed the results.
Wtf does that matter for???
If north korea fired a nuke at Seattle but it failed to detonate, it wouldn't matter? No big deal? The POTUS shouldn't do anything about it or even hint to acknowledge it?
Just ignore and move on when Putin orders a cyber attack on the 2016 US Election?
You cant see the forest for the tree's my friend
As I have already outlined above nobody is ignoring or moving on. Many steps have been and are still being taken against Russian interests. Is there something additional you would like to see since it is clearly the equivalent of nuke hitting seattle?

Every single speech he gives should be protested, confronted, and interrupted. It shows his true colors when people question him to his face, which is NEVER. It's like dealing with a spoiled rotten four year old who only wants smoke blown up his ass. "Thoughts and prayers"...never any action to change what caused the problem in the first place. Steve Scalise is hardly Mother Theresa. He's just barely better than Steve King.
and BS...this is the USA (except if you're in Canada...), you can say whatever you like. But you need better sources than the Washington Times.

You are making shit up. What "mainstream liberal" said he had a bullet coming?
It’s a delicate thing because, obviously everybody is wishing the congressman well and hoping that he recovers. But Steve Scalise has a history that we’ve all been forced to sort of ignore on race,”
“He did come to leadership after some controversy over attending a White nationalists event, which he says he didn’t know what it was. Because he is in jeopardy and everyone is pulling for him, are we required in a moral sense to put that aside?”
Sorry. That is not what she was saying.
You said "for starters" implying there were more. Is this all you have?
No? I figured you had nothing else.
Here's a free tip, get your news from better sources than the gateway pundit and free beacon. You probably have multiple viruses on your computer from all their weird pop up adds.

trump was right about something yesterday during his cedar rapids, iowa speech. "home of the greatest wrestlers in the world." trump mentions wrestler, dan gable. gable is a olympic gold medalist. i've known many a wrestlers from grade school on up. there is a very large farming family (i know two of the eight or nine boys) where all the kids wrestled through all their schooling years. these guys are squirrely, lean, hard & hardworking. when you grow up on (or around) farms it is on for chores every single day before sunup, then breakfast, school, wrestling, then more farm type chores when back home. it is unreal really. baling hay? get the hell out of here! it's only 95 humid degrees out, kids are tossing around hay bales, feeding livestock, wrestling & sleeping really well until that damn rooster gets fired up again. living in the country you know how to drive & hunt when you are 10 & 12 years old.
biography in the link. During his prep and college Wrestling careers, Dan Gable compiled an unbelievable record of 181-1. He was undefeated in 64 prep matches, and was 117-1 at Iowa State University. His only defeat came in the NCAA finals his senior year.
so while watching/listening to the president's speech yesterday (i only saw part of it as we had company show up) i was having strong feelings/emotions as iowa is my home state, born & raised. god dammit i love iowa. i want to roll around on the ground & giggle like a schoolboy when i go back for a visit & have dirt-clod war in a cornfield, stargaze with the g/f & enjoy my roots
trump doesn't want to depend on the wind to make turbines spin creating clean energy. he likes coal, oil, & other fossil fuels. boo... i've many friends back home that fabricate wind turbines. it's hard work, it pays good & people are proud to work there. the same site once manufactured fruehauf semi trailers, which was no picnic either, but it paid the bills
Our preemptive thoughts and prayers go out to those about to lose their heath care, oops I mean health insurance. So much heart and so much winning.
The Senate measure would phase out the extra money Obama provided to expand the federal-state Medicaid program for the poor and disabled to millions of additional low earners. But it would be more gradual than the House bill, which cuts off the extra funds for new Medicaid beneficiaries in 2020. Republican senators from states that expanded Medicaid, such as Ohio's Rob Portman, want to extend that phase-out to seven years.

who gives a shit what people on cable news think? seriously bro.
I didn't say people give a shit. I said this is discourse that is happening. We all recognized a long time ago that we don't blame rape victims for the clothes they were wearing. This kind of talk is no different.
Maybe I'm being dense, but could you clarify what represents the clothes in your metaphor?
Scalise's voting record.
That seems like a reach. A voting record carries actual outcomes and impacts society. Clothes do not.

To anyone with a brain they are mind numbingly stupid
"mainstream liberal" implies that the person in question has name recognition. i am a liberal and i have a working knowledge of pollsters, strategists, and operatives. i have never heard of this person. if i haven't heard of them, they aren't mainstream. regardless, this person is an idiot and i condemn what they said.
got anything from sources other than the washington times?? that paper is a joke.

Nail on the head
"Thoughts and prayers"...never any action to change what caused the problem in the first place.
Steve Scalise is hardly Mother Theresa. He's just barely better than Steve King.
and BS...this is the USA (except if you're in Canada...), you can say whatever you like. But you need better sources than the Washington Times.
Here's a free tip, get your news from better sources than the gateway pundit and free beacon. You probably have multiple viruses on your computer from all their weird pop up adds.

It was problematic before too.

Rob Rogers is one of the greatest things out of Pittsburgh. I posted this a number of pages back, but since we're on the subject...
trump was right about something yesterday during his cedar rapids, iowa speech. "home of the greatest wrestlers in the world." trump mentions wrestler, dan gable. gable is a olympic gold medalist. i've known many a wrestlers from grade school on up. there is a very large farming family (i know two of the eight or nine boys) where all the kids wrestled through all their schooling years. these guys are squirrely, lean, hard & hardworking. when you grow up on (or around) farms it is on for chores every single day before sunup, then breakfast, school, wrestling, then more farm type chores when back home. it is unreal really. baling hay? get the hell out of here! it's only 95 humid degrees out, kids are tossing around hay bales, feeding livestock, wrestling & sleeping really well until that damn rooster gets fired up again. living in the country you know how to drive & hunt when you are 10 & 12 years old.
