It's sad that Tiny has lowered the bar for what makes a good president.

As long as the next president is not a total embarrassment, that will be considered a success.

Setting a low bar for being a great president? That's what happened when a White House intern gave a bl*w job to a certain president. People were so fed up they were willing to vote for anyone who did not cheat on his wife. That's how we got GWB.

Hmm...references to Clinton and GWB. Smells like deflection!

The tweet storm by Trump is going to be truly epic once this bear market hits. On the plus side, maybe he'll realize his trade war was the stupidest way of handling the China situation. Probably not though

A guide for the rubes at your service.

Gonna have to challenge you on the "peanut farmer" and "community organizer" comments. Calling them those things is the same as saying they once wore diapers. While true, it neither is pertinent to their rise to the Presidency.

Jimmy Carter:

Went To Georgia Institute of Technology and then the US Naval Academy

Lieutenant in the Navy

Served as Georgia State Senator

Served as Governor of Georgia

ALSO took a failing peanut business and turned it into a successful enterprise

A brilliant and well-educated man

Barack Obama:

Columbia University and Harvard Law School graduate

President of the Harvard Law Review

Practicing Lawyer

Served as Illinois State Senator

Served as US Senator

A brilliant and well-educated man

I don't know how the Right got so many people to believe we elected just a "community organizer" to be President. He was one of the most qualified people to be President that we have ever had.

He cannot pardon himself nor can Pence unless there are charges already filed. When Trump does leave office, Mueller will immediately take him into custody. If Pence dares to pardon him, it will lead to his impeachment. Mueller will file one charge against Trump to see if Pence is as dumb as Spiro Agnew was. He could very well deliver Pence's political coffin by including crimes he has committed in his report and take both Pence and Trump out but that seems less likely as of now but there is much more to come this week.

Ummm... I happen to remember that Ford gave Nixon a "blanket" pardon before any charge was filed against Nixon. How would it be any different with Pence?

Pence is not the president. Ford was the president when he pardoned Nixon.

You lost me on that last sentence. He wasn’t. Not even close. Good president, but fairly inexperienced. I guess the GOP can’t play that card again....

I would argue that a Governors experience is worth a lot more than Congressional experience. As a Governor you’re doing a similar job as President, just a much smaller scale.

In terms of government experience at the federal level, Alan is probably right. George HW Bush had a truly great resume.

In terms of raw intelligence and education, Bill Clinton probably beats all the presidents for the last 50 years. And he knew public policy better than any of those other guys too. I'm definitely not a Clinton fan, but his qualifications are at least as good as Carter and Obama.

Now let's look at Tiny's qualifications for president:

(I honestly can't think of anything. Does inheriting a fortune count?)

That depends on the state. Texas, for instance, has a very weak governor.

W was governor of Texas, but under the Texas constitution, the governor is arguably the fourth most powerful position behind speaker of the house, lieutenant governor, and railroad commissioner.

2) While I never write what you suggest, the word you want is "drivel".

Mueller is coming.

The clown is done.

No, I think you are once again wrong...big surprise---and you're a liberal!

It's Liberal Dribble and has been around forever, it's a saying that you should be familiar with. "Drivel" doesn't apply here. You're welcome brother and I took you for someone who would be just a tad smarter. Oh well;)

You make a really excellent point. What makes it especially convincing is your clever use of "Ummm..." to begin making your case.

You are incorrect about Obama. His undergrad degree was in Political Science. He then became a lawyer...both degrees from Ivy League schools. He then was a practicing lawyer with an interest in politics, eventually teaching law classes at the University of Chicago. He then had elected positions at both the state and federal level. His elected positions taught him everything he would need to know about being a governor and/or a president.

The right education.

The right work experience.

The right intellect.

The right morals.

One of the most prepared to ever hold the office.

I didn't say Obama was THE most qualified...just ONE of the most qualified...and he was.

My main points were that Carter was hardly just a "peanut farmer" and Obama was hardly just a "community organizer"...to even repeat the latter especially is to buy the belittling crap from people like Rush Limbaugh. Limbaugh calls Obama a "community organizer" and yet thinks Donald Trump is a great man. Ridiculous!

I made those comments because I knew it would ruffle your feathers.

Obama was educated well but not prepared well to be president. I look at # of years in public service and positions held.

Alan

Good morning! How are all you LRC stable geniuses doing this fine am?

Well, we will have to disagree then...8 years as an IL State Senator and then 4 as US Senator along with stellar and appropriate education makes him one of the best prepared...more so than just a politician who was ONLY a governor beforehand with no experience on the federal level.

And...regarding you making those comments to ruffle my feathers, I didn't realize you were a troll. Now I know.

it's the United States vs. a confessed felon, and the president wishes luck to the felon. Nice. Try explaining that to your kids, tonight, Trumpers.

Protip: Wear your blackshirt or white hood - it will be easier that way for your kids to connect the dots.

Our president is a racist, divisive mobster, with 1/3 of the country backing him in his ways.

Issuing a challenge to Trumpers, especially those who believe in the ridiculous mantra "Mueller never".

The challenge is this -- if you dare to type that two-word phrase, explain WHY you believe it to be true. To avoid any misunderstanding, I suggest you also explain what you mean by "Mueller never". For example, if Trump is charged only with sealed indictments so that he is charged after he is out of office but is not forced to resign or forced out with impeachment and conviction, does that fall into "Mueller never" for you?

So, the gauntlet has been thrown. Do you have the ability to pick it up?
