    You're right, I should have qualified that with "nobody (but morons) is distracted or fooled."

    I stole this from someone on the internet but it fits....

    People need to stop calling everything a distraction.

    Trump has bad policies, he's only praising Putin as a distraction from those.

    Trump praises Putin, he's only insulting war heroes to distract from his praise of Putin.

    Trump's plans are offensive to the military, he only asked Putin to hack Clinton's emails as a distraction from his terrible military plans.

    Trump colluded with Putin, but that's just a distraction from the fact that he wants to funnel government money through his properties.

    Sure Trump funnels money through his properties, but that's just a distraction from the fact that he's giving his children positions of power. He's distracting from nepotism.

    Oh nepotism? That's just a distraction from the fact that his staff colluded with Russia.

    Oh, his staff colluding with Russia? That's just a distraction from the fact that the Republicans want to take away healthcare from Americans?

    Healthcare? That's just a distraction from the fact that his son in law and children lied under oath and can be prosecuted?

    What's that? Lying under oath? That's just a distraction from the fact that Trump doesn't want people to pay attention to the re-newed effort to repeal Obamacare?

    What's that? Repeal Obamacare? He doesn't even care about the topic of healthcare. That's just a big distraction from the fact that he wants to fire Jeff Sessions and replace him with someone to fire Mueller.

    What's that? Obstruction of justice? No, that's just a distraction to cover up for......

    A unitary executive doesn't mean they have limitless power.  The DOJ didn't even exist when the Constitution was written.  It's the nation's chief law enforcement tool.  It's not Trump's personal vendetta squad.  You actually still have to meet the standards of prosecution in order to prosecute.  Care to explain how Preet is wrong vs. just stating it as if it's a fact?  I'm pretty sure he's a helluva lot more qualified than you considering he held the most prestigious US Attorney post in the country.

    There is no way that any decent human being can defend the anti-trans tweets. No fucking way.

    It's 3D's attempt to discredit Preet, who as you know was told he'd stay on, then fired and then suddenly a money laundering case, involving Russians, Russians, Russians is suddenly settled with a fine. Seems Mueller's investigation is progressing quite nicely. Why else all of the 3Ds?

    for those that don't know, I'm of the opinion that the presidency has gained too much power over the last 18 years. 
    anyone have any thoughts on why Congress let the office of independent counsel die in 1999? why would Congress let a very powerful check and balance to the president expire? an office for Congress independent of the AG and DoJ?  if it were still around today, we wouldn't be having any conversation about Trump firing Sessions and orMueller, we wouldn't be talking about a president trying to "dictate prosecution". maybe preet knows

    Ken Starr's overreach investigating White Water. Don't blame the republican controlled congress' abdication of responsibility on Preet. There are still checks and balances available to the congress if they so desire. That the Republican Party allowed this cream to rise to the top and then still do nothing is all on them. Makes the Clinton's look angelic in comparison.

    None of these criticisms have anything to do with your central point... evidently that Preet and Lindsey are wrong and Trump can prosecute his political enemies.  Try addressing that point rather than trying to throw curve balls.

    We need to stop with the Trump / Hitler comparisons.  Trump is a dummy that has the mental fortitude of a 7th grader.  

    It's somehow (and very weird) insulting to say that king clown has the mental prowess of the most evil sociopath of all time.  

    Hitler had a final plan.  I'm not sure if Trump ties his own shoes or has a team dedicated to that task 
    I don't think anyone has ever said that Trump is as smart as Hitler was. I think we all know that isn't the case, since Trump is such a dummy. That doesn't mean that there aren't political parallels between the two. I will absolutely continue to point out those parallels, and I don't care how people feel about it. I think that anyone who rejects them is in denial.

    Add me to the list of those who can't. The update from a couple of months ago is such a trainwreck. 
  • Someone asked earlier wondering if governing by tweet was allowed.  Well by the looks of it yes.  President Trump has been doing it for months now. I'm pretty sure the military can make it's own rules of who serves with them no?
    Latest tweet from President Trump folks.....

    After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you. Why didn't A.G. Sessions replace Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, a Comey friend who was in charge of Clinton investigation but got big dollars ($700,000) for his wife's political run from Hillary Clinton and her representatives. Drain the Swamp!  IN AMERICA WE DON'T WORSHIP GOVERNMENT - WE WORSHIP GOD!

    I notice nobody really talks about Sarah Huckabee Sanders, now that she's press secretary. I think she is just horrible - I may have actually liked Spicer better, lol. He got irritated, but Sanders just looks bored and like she thinks the fact that anyone is asking any questions at all is super uninteresting and irrelevant. I see people more enthused about what's going on in human resources workshops. And what she says is absolutely fucking useless. It's almost like she is going out of her way to be unlikable IMO. I think this choice is bizarre. Surely there is SOMEONE who is a good choice for this role?? Is this a reflection of Trump's horrible decisions? Or a reflection of the lack of decent, qualified people willing to work for him?

    I nearly barf every time he mentions God. I'm not offended as a Godly person, because I'm an agnostic. But the fact that this asshole lived nearly 70 years living the exact opposite of a Godly life, decides he wants to run for President, says stupid comments like above, and people believe him to be a Godly person and start having paintings of God standing by him, etc. 
    It is infuriating how dumb people are by falling for this crap just by mentioning God. 

    Sorry for the rant. It's just frustrating.
