    Ya gotta post the tweets of President Trump in order to get the full context and not just one side.  Before this he tweeted
    .@foxandfriends Dems are taking forever to approve my people, including Ambassadors. They are nothing but OBSTRUCTIONISTS! Want approvals!


    Sure Donny, sure.

    But Democrats in Congress can't stall nominations that haven't been made.

    As of Thursday, the White House had yet to put forward the names of candidates for 475 of the 554 key positions that require Senate confirmation, according to the Partnership for Public Service, a nonpartisan group that advises incoming administrations.

    The longest list of empty desks waiting for nominations is at the State Department, which has more than 100 vacancies, including the dozens of ambassadors appointed by the Obama administration who were fired by Trump on Inauguration Day.

    In the meantime, Trump has quietly hired some 400 staffers — without Senate approval — to begin working throughout the executive branch and coordinating with the West Wing.

    The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

    Yo.

    Trump doesn't even give a shit.
    For him, its all about the #PTAPE .
    He (and the whole crew of them) have been every day, relentlessly, and surgically trying to distract you with ALL this CRAZY shizzy
    because HE DOESN'T want to talk about his #PTAPE .  THAT'S the Russia problem.  It isn't voting machine tampering, or Russian NERDS tipping the election . It's his penchant for the ladies o the evening who like to do the nasty shit in the Russian hotels that got the mad video coverage.   Combine that with Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller, and this is what you get.

    He should have been im the fuck peached the day of his inauguration...why is this taking so long?

    For a mayor to say no need to be alarmed after this happening is pretty stupid and is an insult to the people.
    It's a shame your thoughts have been conditioned not to exceed 140 characters.

    “Londoners will see an increased police presence today and over the course of the next few days. No reason to be alarmed — one of the things the police and all of us need to do is make sure we’re as safe as we possibly can be.”

    Mayor Sadiq Khan was attempting to reassure the people of London that a greater police presence they might see in the aftermath of the previous day’s attack was a public safety precaution; he was not indicating that another attack was imminent or that citizens should “not be alarmed” by what had occurred.

    I don't think Trump getting peed on by Russian prostitutes is an impeachable offense, lol.

    I contend that he's not morally able to execute the office of the Presidency.  
    He lacks the basic character needed to do the job.  
    No laws need to have been broken, he's a danger to the Republic.  

    I might be wrong, but he seems like a giant fuck up, AND a total scumbag, not to namecall.

    Nor should it be. It is, however, fucking hilarious if it's true. I would laugh my ass off for hours watching that.

    The citizens voted the Mayor in and our president keeps going after him; t's very bizarre - and embarrassing.


    He also keeps using his name as a form of dog whistle to his supporters because it's a Muslim name and trying to gently suggest he is a terrorist sympathizer... Unsung did the same thing on here yesterday 

    They used to do the same thing to Barack and his middle name 

    It's pathetic

    Exactly. And Khan was also the last name of the family that Trump feuded with. The Muslim family of a slain U.S. soldier. The father totally owned Trump in their exchange of words. I'm sure in Cheetolini's mind that makes all Khans evil.

    Don't worry, he'll have plenty to tweet about once those congressional and independent counsel investigations kick into high gear. That said, I'm not sure he has emphatic bone in his body.

    I am sure we will read a similar post in six months, and then 12 months, and then 18 months from now.   Waiting for the smoking gun. I am not saying there isn't an issue but doubt that there will be a smoking gun that gets Trump in real trouble.   There really hasn't been any real Russia news in months.  
    I wonder why Kushner is lying so low? Sessions apparently met a third time with Kyslyck and for a third time failed to disclose it. Putin now publically claims Russian "patriots" may have hacked the election. Nunes was requesting unmasking while Trump was claiming that Obama was unmasking for political purposes. More subpoenas issued for an ever widening circle of trump campaign officials with known ties to Russians, including Trump's personal attorney. Comey scheduled to testify before congress on Thursday. Yup, nothing new here, nothing at all. Those brilliant headlines will be disappearing any day now. Any day. 
    No, nothing new.  We already know that  people on the Trump team talked to Russians.  We have known this for months.   We have known that Kushner talked to the Russians and didn't disclose this months ago.   Can't wait to hear Comey testify for the 1,000th time.   Someone send me a private message when some actual damning news gets released and not bullshit political maneuvering by both sides.

    I believe Russia influenced the election.  I believe the Trump team is corrupt.  I am not arguing with you except am disagreeing with you that anything major will come from this and there will be a smoking gun.  Everything you sais in your post has been the same narrative for months now.  People talked to each other.  Big fucking deal.
    Did we know months ago that the Trump transition team worked quickly to drop Obama's sanctions without requesting anything in exchange? Did we know months ago an independent counsel would be appointed? Did we know months ago that Trump would meet with the Russians in the Oval Office and admit to firing Comey the kook? And that he'd publically admit that he did it to take pressure off, basically admitting to obstruction of justice? If you think any of this was the narrative being propagated around here, you haven't been paying attention.
    I have been paying attention.  Still waiting for the smoking gun.  You seem to be surprised by news articles that aren't surprising.   All of this right now is the equivalent of Jan Brady saying "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia" over and over.  They have been investigating for months.  There have been testimonies for months.  
    wrong...we don't have any idea of what Mueller has uncovered.  We won't know until he's done.

    I'm not saying they aren't going to find stuff, but they are not going to find a smoking gun that forces Trump to resign or be impeached.
    and you know this for certain?

    No, and you don't either.  We are all just speculating right now.  With just about everything being leaked these days if there was a smoking gun we probably would have heard about it.  
    well we've already heard him admit to obstruction of justice.



    And he's still in office.

    How could I possibly know that?  Of course I'm speculating.

    Obstruction of justice is what forced Richard Nixon eventually the eff out.  
    It is illegal, and the way Trump did is kind of a dick move, especially if the real crime here is his PTAPE.  
    Jimmy's talkin' Thursday.
