In the era of President Trump, even time spent in prison can be turned into a positive talking point, demonstrating a candidate’s battle scars in a broader fight against what he perceives as liberal corruption.

By definition, there is no question Trump wants a banana republic, since he is for isolationist policies and restricted capitalism. And since you brought it up, I find it interesting that Trump has made several generals very politically powerful... yeah nothing smells like banana republic here

Is he really "making the case"? How so?
You don't have to agree with trump but the mob can't make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don't agree with everything anyone does. That's what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought.

If your friend jumps off the bridge you don't have to do the same. Ye being Ye is a fight for you to be you. For people In my life the idea of Trump is pretty much a 50 50 split but I don't tell a Hillary supporter not to support Hillary
I love Hillary too.
Stuff like that. That's making the case in the right way. As opposed to the people who are threatening to "f*ck him up" for saying these things. Those people are doing it wrong.
As predicted by people who know trickle down is fantasy economics.
"So far, hard evidence of such an acceleration has yet to appear in economic data … And while there are pockets of the economy where investment is picking up … corporate spending on buying back stock is increasing at a far faster clip, prompting a debate about whether the law is returning money to the overall economy or just rewarding a small segment of investors."

That's called tweeting, you know, like your Dear Leader does 24/7. If you meant the substance, that's called blabbering. Nobody is telling any trumper they CAN'T support Trump, so his tweets are nothingburgers and meant to appease the likes of you. Take off your trump goggles and look back further than a couple of weeks worth of Kanye moments and you're going to find some truly offensive and aggressive stuff, then come back and remind us again who does it wrong.

Step out of the rat maze - Kanye makes his name antagonizing everyone and being contrarian. That you are seriously referring to a twitter rapper battle to try to make a point is insane. Let us know when Jay-Z or Eminem hop on the Trump train.

The point of testifying under oath is to get a record of the witness's account of events under the pain of being held accountable for knowingly distorting reality. I can see where you might be uncomfortable with this concept.

Gary is afraid that Trump won't be able to answer these questions without lying. Now why would he think that?
Of course, leave to Trump to f'-up a simple statement (using 'has' rather than 'had' about Iran's nuke program) in such a way that causes global havoc.

"Perjury Trap"? Would that be where they give you some of that famous anti-truth serum and force you to lie under oath?

Shows how out of touch Gary is, at least when it comes to hip hop. Cultural clout??? hahaha. Kanye has made his career by being controversial. Take a look at all the diarrhea that has come out of his mouth over the last 20 years and his behavior in general, you will hardly find anything sensible. His fans like his bravado and "I don't care" attitude, but few take his views seriously. After all, he's just a spoiled rich guy with a big ego - no don't even begin to suggest he would actually speak for minorities. He gets off on being annoying and going against the grain. See his latest song, he's battling T.I. on politics... it's just part of his business model.
You know trumpers are desperate when they refer to Kanye.
Kanye is making the case for basic freedoms like free speech and the right to independent thought better than just about anyone else out there. He is pushing back against Liberal group think fascism and he is doing it the right way.

He's making the case for basic freedoms in the same ways that trolls do. Which is fine, but not novel.

No one survives a government perjury trap. No one. Just ask Scooter Libby.
There's no doubt that they have nothing at all on Trump and they just want to trap him with perjury. That's the last card they have to play, and I say don't let them play it.
"The effects of the Trump tax cut are already looking like the effects of the Brownback tax cut in Kansas, the Bush tax cut and every other much-hyped tax cut of the past three decades: big talk, big promises, but no results aside from a swollen budget deficit."

Hey, Lying Gary. Again going on record to say that it is impossible to avoid lying under oath! Good job!
Must be absolutely HORRIBLE to be so completely dominated by your inner demons that the concept of honesty seems like an impossibility to you. You are truly the most tormented soul on these boards (even including DFF = Jamin).
My condolences.

Happy Uno de Mayo everyone!
As promised, I'm back on the first of the month to add to the unprecedented "consecutive months being incorrect" tally that Flagpole is accumulating.
Anyone see the late-Monday night "news" (terrible timing for dropping anything "big" by the way) from the NYT** that they have "obtained" questions Mueller would like to ask Trump? Whoa, right? "Mueller and Trump in the same sentence?! Wow- surely this leads somewhere!" (fingers crooooossed). LOL at the gullible sheep.
If you notice, the questions are essentially a compilation of all the "Colluuuussssion" news headlines that we've seen over the last 1.5+ years. Note that 1) Not a single question is a new topic, and 2) Making this "list" public is about the worse thing you could do if you actually have hard evidence against the President. And it kills the suspense for the hopeful, as they hope Mueller has something up his sleeve. It's clearly throwing a bone to the MSM/political establishment, as they will now be discussing the questions ad nauseam until the next news cycle.
This is the work of Rudy Giuliani (and the Raskins- all former federal prosecutors), who came aboard Trump's team a couple weeks ago. Getting Mueller to show his [stale] cards like this- a week after telling Trump that he is not a target in any investigation- is significant progress in pretty short order. He said he would bring an end to this ridiculous, open-ended charade (designed to reverse an EPIC victory by a political outsider), and it appears he is doing just that.
So another month ticks by with zero change, and only more frothing-at-the-mouth Liberal speculation.
Mueller isn't coming (clearly now).
The clown continues to be Flagpole.
Current status of Flagpole's Flagpole Streak: 27+ months.
**Is this the same NYT whose Editorial Board is currently openly begging Justice Kennedy to NOT retire and NOT enjoy the remainder of his life, but rather, keep his position for as long as possible to avert an even further Supreme Court crisis for the Left? Do they have the life support machines in place for Ginsberg, too? Just disgusting partisanship on display from the frightened Liberal establishment.
3) I can not be incorrect as you say. I have predicted what will happen when the investigation is over, and it is not yet over. It's like if I said the sun will come up tomorrow, am I wrong until it does? No. I am only wrong if it doesn't.
Your logic is backwards.
You think you're on the prediction side of the "sun coming up." But you're actually on the side saying that it's NOT going to come up. Yet every single day, you still say, "you just wait and see, it won't come up tomorrow!"
The burden of proving that the sun will not come up is on YOU, since it does in fact come up everyday...
Just like Trump being POTUS. Every single day. As you sit there, powerless.

Trump shouldn't talk to Mueller.
1) I agree with you that Trump shouldn't talk to Mueller. It can only hurt him because he is guilty as hell, and he is so undisciplined that he will say things his attorneys would rather he not say.
2) Now, is he going to have to talk to Mueller? I hope so, because we need to get the whole truth, and we can't be assured of that if Trump doesn't talk.
3) And, of course his motives matter. Will go to possible obstruction of justice.
4) Nothing tabloid justicey about this at all. Trump has given them reason to investigate him, and they are doing so appropriately.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.
