The Finance 202: Trump declares premature victory with European Union deal
President Trump’s announcement on trade with the European Union completes a cycle now familiar in his presidency. The commander in chief flogs an issue repeatedly as a crisis-level threat while pursuing a fix that often creates more harm than it solves -- then beats a partial retreat that he frames as a victory.

Link to Twitter admitting this? I'll wait.
Interesting Op-Ed piece by Matt Bai

"But if there’s a burden on journalists to rebuild that trust (and there is), then there’s a burden on you, too, to be a shrewder consumer. Because make no mistake: Trump and his acolytes disdain you, in a way Nixon on his worst day did not.
They don’t think you’re smart enough to recognize truth or care about it. They don’t fear your judgment, because they don’t think you have any."

Twitter isn't "liberals" anymore than Chick-fil-A is "conservatives".
What will Trump's biggest error in judgement turn out to be?
1) Not protecting Michael Cohen and ultimately not giving him a White House job initially?
2) Giving his children and son-in-law (especially Don Jr.) any authority?
3) Boning every woman in sight?
4) Conspiring with Russia?
5) Obstructing justice including the firing of James Comey?
6) Other?
Running for POTUS .

Yeah. I was going to put that on the list, but I didn't want to attract comments from Gary et al. like "Running for President because the liberals and the establishment won't allow him to continue to be President."
Putin gave Trump a soccer ball that may have a transmitter chip

Oh, oh!
Trump Organization Finance Chief Called to Testify Before Federal Grand Jury
Longtime Trump executive Allen Weisselberg has been subpoenaed in Michael Cohen probe.
“For decades, Mr. Weisselberg has served as executive vice president and chief financial officer at the Trump Organization, and was once described by a person close to the company as ‘the most senior person in the organization that’s not a Trump,'” the Journal writes. “The subpoena illustrates that investigators are seeking input from Mr. Trump’s closest colleagues in the Trump Organization, particularly those with knowledge of the company’s financial dealings.”
And it gets worse.
It looks like the $1.6 million payoff was not for Elliott Broidy (former RNC Chair) impregnating a playboy model to get an abortion. It looks like the payoff was on Trump's behalf.
Breaking: Donald Trump conspired with Michael Cohen to pay off multiple other women prior to Election Day in 2016. They were also concerned about a pregnancy. Cohen has evidence and info in his possession and it must be released to the public. Now! #Basta

Do you have internet access in the trailer park or do you go to the library?
I'll hang up and listen.

Yep. This was suspected early on by Avenatti. He insinuated it but would not state it. I thought there was a great chance of this happening. The tip off? It had been reported that the three Cohen clients were Trump, Broidy, and Sean Hannity, but that turned out not to be true. The three clients (I mentioned this back when this happened) were Trump, Hannity, and the Trump Organization.
This is not shocking to me, because Trump is liar, and as much as he was hiding his sausage, this was bound to happen. Still just speculation at this point, but it will likely be shown to be true.

Yes. And it will likely come out that Elliott Broidy resigned because he used RNC money to make the payoff to Trump's knocked up playmate.

I agree that Hillary is awful but the problem here is you’re definition of FACTUAL. Each quote here is just an OPINION. The only thing factual is the fact that they said it. This is the exact point where Trumpers and reality part company.
btw not sure if you are aware but Hugo Chavez was a massive socialist who destroyed his country’s economy but whatever, quote him all you like, if it bolsters your ‘facts’.
Not true, she FACTUALLY said those things. The definition of FACTUAL is that it's a direct quote by her.
Trollminator is demented, we don't respond to him.

The crazy thing is that if and when it is proven that Trump paid off a woman to keep quiet about an abortion, many (not all) "Christian Conservatives" will still support him. They will say he has a greater chance of stopping abortions than any other President, so they will rationalize their support of him. The reality is that THOSE Christian Conservatives really only care about Paternalism. If it were a woman president, even a conservative one, who got an abortion, they would all turn their backs on her, but if a man pays for an abortion of a pregnancy that he created, that's ok.
Just gotta keep women in their place which is the main idea behind Pro Life. Conservatives are for state's rights and individual freedoms except when it comes to a woman and her body or gays.

All lies and merely one person's opinion. Please keep them in Ohio, no need to share your lies.
DiscoGary and Rigged For Hillary,
Will you care at all if it turns out that Trump got a Playboy playmate pregnant and that he paid $1.6 million for her to get an abortion and to hush up about it? I'm guessing no, but I'm curious.
