That’s all this guy does. I don’t even post and he comes after me. Whatever. I still think he is most likely very wimpy; comes on here to pump up his chest, goes back to his meek barista job hoping for a buck tip.
Just noting you displaying internet/social media bravado and talking sh!t at a distance.
Good job!

It's amusing to me seeing Congressional subpoenas ignored.
Trump has told them he will pardon for any and all crimes. So, they have nothing to lose. But, the US Constitution (Art. II, Sec. 2) grants the President the "power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment." So there is that. Trump's pardon will have less value than, as someone posted pages ago, "used toilet paper."
No, Ghost, you’re the anonymous coward. I am “in person” at races with my real name all the time. Like all trumpettes, you can’t handle reality.
You yourself are a good example of talking sh!t at a distance. I post only as myself, you’re welcome, and your a coward.

Clear tax fraud and bank fraud shown here in Trump Org documents. He kept two sets of books and there is no way both can be correct.
""And this is just getting started. One reason trump doesn't want to show his tax returns is that people will find where he committed bank fraud and tax fraud. Remember Trump wanted to show both huge losses (for tax reasons) and huge profits (for borrowing reasons.) These documents show how he lied to one or both.
A dozen real estate professionals told ProPublica they saw no clear explanation for multiple inconsistencies in the documents. The discrepancies are “versions of fraud,” said Nancy Wallace, a professor of finance and real estate at the Haas School of Business at the University of California-Berkeley. “This kind of stuff is not OK.”
New York City’s property tax forms state that the person signing them “affirms the truth of the statements made” and that “false filings are subject to all applicable civil and criminal penalties.”
The punishments for lying to tax officials, or to lenders, can be significant, ranging from fines to criminal fraud charges. Two former Trump associates, Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort, are serving prison time for offenses that include falsifying tax and bank records, some of them related to real estate.""

A criminal and a fraud. What I’ll never understand is why is supporters don’t care.

This will never happen. You are ignorant beyond belief. Dumber than Trump, if that is possible. And an obvious racist.

Siege mentality is a shared feeling of victimization and defensiveness. It is a collective state of mind in which a group of people believe themselves constantly attacked, oppressed, or isolated in the face of the negative intentions of the rest of the world. Although a group phenomenon, the term describes both the emotions and thoughts of the group as a whole, and as individuals.
The result is a state of being overly fearful of surrounding peoples, and an intractably defensive attitude. Among the consequences of a siege mentality are black and white thinking, social conformity, and lack of trust, but also a preparedness for the worst and a strong sense of social cohesion.
It’s actually quite difficult, trying to educate the disinformed about a Constitution they should have learned about in grade school and also from their parents, alas.

Straight out of Wikipedia (a quote that would require a single tweet, which is within Trump's reading level limit). And a book for Dummies like Trump.
The concept of "two sets of books" refers to the practice of attempting to hide or disguise certain financial transactions from outsiders by having a set of fraudulent accounting records (or "books") for official use and another, the real set, for personal records.
Keeping two sets of books has its disadvantages and advantages. The concept of having two sets of books is so public traded companies can prepare the financial statements for the Securities and Exchange Commission, investors, and sometimes the IRS. This is considered an advantage because it shows the investors that they are a rich company. Therefore, they can get more shareholders to buy their stocks. The disadvantage with these companies for having two sets of books is when they report one or both of the books to the Internal Revenue Service, they tend to lower their income to avoid taxes.

Monotonic means homogeneous which means not changing ever at all. Your comment ,"The rise in global temperatures is [sic] not monotonic," is a nonsense statement.
FYI: "are" not monotonic, not "is" not monotonic. Do you know why?

I would think "is" would be correct because you are describing a relationship between variables.

That post makes no sense at all. Even ignoring the grammar errors. Something variable is not constant. Therefore. . . . LOL.

OK, so you appear to be a troll - or else almost unbelievably stupid.
1) Monotonic most certainly does NOT mean homogeneous. How in the world you ever got that idea is beyond me. Monotonic refers to always rising (or falling) as in a monotonically increasing function.
2) "Is" is indeed the proper term (rather than "are"). The rise is singular. Hence the rise IS not monotonic. NOT, the rise ARE not monotonic.
Seriously, were you trying to set a record for stupidity on here? Or just a record for bad trolling?
At any rate, I am done with you. Feel free to add to your already impressive display of stupidity if you wish. You will be ignored.

Sally, Rigged and Ghost make a lot of the Trump Think defender posts using unregistered names. JaminLoper, the twins, do the same. It makes their tiny Trumpanzee group seem larger. Otherwise they feel lonely.

Thank you, Correia another crook.
Just a little check-in.
1) Trump will be impeached.
2) Trump will go to prison when he is out of office.
3) Giuliani will be indicted and convicted and will go to prison.
4) Pence is in huge trouble, but the focus is on Trump, so it is unclear at this point what happens to him though it appears he deserves impeachment, removal, and prison.
5) Rick Perry will be shown to have not done anything illegal.
6) William Barr is corrupt, but his exposure is yet to be determined. At a minimum, he has been made impotent. The only "Barr Tab" (what a stupid phrase) associated with him will be at his local bar...if he is able to stay out of prison.
7) There are others both in the news and not yet in the news who will go to prison over this.
