The Dear Leader is insisting on having a trade war. How did trade policy get decided by the Deep State? Did the Deep State enter Trump's body when he announced sanctions? Maybe Trump is actually Hillary in a fat suit?
Please help me understand Conservative Justice Warriors!

HI JAMIN!!!
FYI: Trump's 45-IQ limits him to playing 1 dimensional marbles by himself.
Yes, it is close to half. Less than 2% difference. In the world of stats, that's called a sneeze.
I bet "more than half" that you never took stats and don't understand that even if Trump had won by the same amount, wait for it...YOU'D STILL BE COMPLAINING.
If Hillary had won all of the states that YOU said she would, including your state of Ohio, then she would have killed in the electoral college and there'd be no issues, right?
Instead, Trump won by over 70 electoral votes and beat her in at least 7 states that she should not only have won, but should have clobbered Trump...but she didn't. Because he won those states, you need to look for an excuse. Russia? Total BS! Facebook ads to influence goofballs like you, right?
Now come the excuses from the left who can't stand defeat. Let's change the rules in the middle of the game because we lost.
YOU voted for a KNOWN liar and thief, yet your only defense is she was never convicted. That's sheer stupidity.
Honestly, you aren't very bright. Bright people don't brag about being brilliant, you do. Insecurity perhaps?

Everything Trump got wrong about Red Hen, in one tweet
by Tim Carman June 25
After remaining uncharacteristically silent over the weekend about a Virginia restaurant owner’s decision to boot his White House press secretary from her establishment, President Trump turned into a food critic Monday with an early-morning tweet.
The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 25, 2018
Let’s break down the president’s tweet and see how much of his commentary is rooted in reality vs. the politics of protecting his chief spokeswoman, Sarah Huckabee Sanders. As most everyone in the country already knows, Sanders was dining at the Red Hen in Lexington, Va. — not to be confused with the Red Hen in Washington, which has been dragged into this losing battle — when owner Stephanie Wilkinson asked the press secretary to leave.
Part 1: “The Ren Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders.”
Trump probably was looking at the Red Hen from photos posted online. Once the controversy started to play out on social media and in the press, John Asadoorian, founder of Asadoorian Retail Solutions in Washington, said he went to Google maps and looked at the street where the Red Hen is located. “Take a [look] a block up and down the street from this restaurant, and that building looks like the nicest building within a block,” he said.
“Now if someone went inside and said, ‘I sat down and the table was sticky and the plate was dirty and the glass was dirty or the bathroom didn’t have any hand soap.’ Those kind of things? That says a lot,” Asadoorian said. “But the exterior in a small town like this, where if you look within a block or two there isn’t another restaurant of this caliber, I wouldn’t necessary judge it.”
Wilkinson did not immediately respond to request for comment, so it’s not clear whether she owns or rents the building that houses the Red Hen, although it seems as if she’s a renter. The owner of the property is Philip Clayton who, according to Nexis records, appears to be a heavyweight in real estate in the area. Maybe he’s part owner, too? We don’t know. He did not return requests for comment.
But let’s presume that Wilkinson is the tenant. According to Asadoorian, landlords range from the absentee types who place all maintenance burdens on the tenant to those who are responsible for some building upkeep while keeping a close eye on tenants to make sure they’re performing routine maintenance. Asadoorian would know these kinds of details. He’s been representing both landlords and restaurateurs for more than 30 years in negotiations.
Generally speaking, Asadoorian said, tenants like Wilkinson will be charged with maintaining a clean and attractive facade.
But, he added, you have to understand the economies and reality of a 26-seat restaurant in a rural community. The Red Hen is not an everyday restaurant, like a fast-casual spot or a large chain. It’s also not the Inn at Little Washington, in Washington, Va., where the tasting menu runs $218 per person. The Red Hen is a special occasion restaurant in historic Lexington where the menu tops out at $28 for a pan-seared pork chop with cheese grits. Wilkinson may not be rolling in cash in an industry notoriously tight on profit margins.
“The cost of running a restaurant these days is very expensive,” Asadoorian said. “Finding good labor is very hard. They may not have the money to clean their awnings every week.”
Part 1A: The Red Hen “badly needs a paint job.”
If you inspect a current photo of the Red Hen with one from Google maps from 2012, you’ll notice a few things: First, the awnings look to be in much better shape in the older picture. They’re a vibrant shade of hunter green without a trace of bird poop. You’ll also notice a planter box in the older photo.
The planter box is missing from the current picture, which explains the discoloration under the main window. Aside from that, Asadoorian said, the building’s facade looks great. You’d expect the red paint to have faded, but it hasn’t, he said.
“Look at the eaves under the roof,” Asadoorian said. “They look awfully clean. If it was in really bad shape, it would be black. That paint could be peeling.”
Bottom line: The building does not seem to badly need a paint job.
Part 2: “I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!”
The quickest way to determine whether a restaurant is “dirty on the inside” is not to review its exterior, but to look at its health inspection reports, which, in the Red Hen’s case, are available online. The restaurant has been inspected four times since April 2014. On two of those reviews, including the most recent one in February, inspectors found no issues. The February inspector had only positive remarks for Wilkinson’s restaurant, saying, among other things, that “staff had clean uniforms/aprons and line cook had hair restrained.”
The January 2017 inspection found one “priority” item: The Red Hen, the inspector wrote, had found pickles and jams “in a hermetically sealed container [that] is not from an approved food processing plant.” The restaurant said the “jars were for decorative use only” and would take them home. End of threat.
The Red Hen’s worst inspection report came in April 2014, when the restaurant was dinged with two “critical” violations. One was for storing raw beef above ready-to-eat foods and storing raw thawing meats above cookie bars, both of which can lead to bacterial cross contamination. The other violation was for failing to put a “consume by” date on some prepared grits to make sure the product is either served within seven days to prevent harmful bacterial growth. Both issues were corrected at the time of the inspection.
Compare the Red Hen’s infractions with the most recent report at Trump International Hotel. In April, inspectors found the hotel out of compliance in nine categories, including for unsanitary food contact surfaces, improper food holding temperatures and improper storage to prevent cross contamination. The inspector also noted that Trump’s hotel license does not make any mention of a kitchen, but the property has four separate food preparation areas, including an in-room kitchen, an employee cafeteria, a banquet kitchen and a pastry kitchen. “Please contact DCRA to remedy this issue,” the inspector wrote, referring to the D.C. Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs, which issues business licenses.
A follow-up inspection in May found the Trump hotel still out of compliance in four areas, including a “display refrigerator [that] is not maintaining adequate food temperatures.” The inspector also found no evidence that Trump hotel had contacted DCRA to update its hotel license. And last year, the president’s resort retreat in Florida, Mar-a-Lago, was dinged for 13 code infractions.
A Washington Post staffer conducted an informal inspection at Trump’s D.C. hotel on Monday morning and found the awnings a little dusty, but the exterior otherwise fine. Inside, it was another matter. In the lobby bar, the breakfast diner found himself sitting on a velvety blue couch strewn not just with crumbs, but also with several hairs that weren’t his and multiple spots of indeterminate vintage. Also, the side of the white marble table had a reddish stain on it. It was sticky.
A similar inattention to basic housekeeping duties extended to the ground-floor men’s room, where one toilet was unflushed.

And, I reject your assertion...I provided it as a condition because I knew it was a possibility. Accounted for. Cheaters can not win anyway...you do not have to prove that the cheating caused the win.
When this is all over, I will have been proven right about the election and right that Trump is a criminal.

The clown is done.
Just on the issue of the election itself, it seems likely that it’ll never be proven either way. For you to stubbornly insist in absolute terms that you will be proven right seems a little silly.
However you are right to say that Trump is a criminal.
Let me be clear:
1) If it is proven that collusion (conspiracy) with Russia occurred to get Trump elected, then I will be right about the election, because I said Trump could not win unless there was cheating OR unless aliens came down here and made us vote for him. It does not have to be proved (it can't be) that the cheating made the election swing to him. It only has to be proved that the cheating did occur, and to be clear, the conspiracy to get him elected is the cheating. I already created the condition. Inarguable and not silly in any way.
2) You are right that I will be proved correct that Trump is a criminal.
Well, Trump's "zero tolerance" immigration policy has gotten his approval rating back to normal:

1) I ONLY use logic.
2) Donald Trump's behavior has made this thread an every day shredding of him. He made his bed (well, maybe a porn star did), so that's his fault.
3) I was disappointed that Hillary didn't win, but I was not pissed and am not now. I am an even-keel person and don't get pissed.
4) I NEVER b!tch.
5) I am very infrequently wrong, and I am not wrong about Trump, and it will be proved that I was right about the election too, for cheaters can not be winners.
6) I am GREAT to live with. Married for 29 years to prove it.
7) I have simply been telling you what is going to happen to Trump, and here it is in case you forgot...
Mueller is coming.

Flagpole, you don't need to respond to these trolls.
You are obviously a very talented individual. You are wasting your time defending your 2016 prediction on this message board. You need to get out there and start pushing Democratic midterm candidates. You live in a swing state and we need people like you to get involved. Yes, we hope Mueller will bring down the Village Idiot. But, there is nothing any of us can do to make it so. What we can do is completely make Trump's life miserable for the remaining two years of his Presidency. The way to do that is to get control of the House.
Trump complains so much about everyone being against him right now. Imagine if the Democrats controlled the House and/or the Senate. He would be so frustrated that he would probably quit. Even if he were able to serve out the remainder of his term, he would get very little of his agenda realized because Democrats would be in his face at every turn.
Dude, get to work. Our country depends on it.
When Democrats take over the House and Senate Trump won’t get anything done. He will not quit because he is making too much money billing the government for everything. He will play golf 4 days per week. Spend a day traveling to his golf course. And watch TV the other 2 days.
You are correct in your criticisms of me. I will take it to heart, though sometimes it is just fun to reply.
I have done some stuff (fundraising) for two Ohio candidates, but honestly that will probably be it. I am active in the political process, but I am not really an activist. Perhaps when I retire I will do more.
Still though...
Is Flagpole going to say it?
Wait for it...

1) Let it go dude. No one is ever going to agree with your election criteria anyway. If the Russia thing is proven you can say you were right about that.
