So, you realize that "mark(ing) this post for future reference" is incredibly stupid, right?

Incorrect! These are the items that I am singling out from Fat boy:

"There is no reason to believe that Tiny will appoint pro-life judges if re-elected. He was pro-choice when it was convenient for him. He could just as easily switch back."

Trump is not turning his back his pro-life position. Not happening. He will continue to appoint pro-life judges.

Fat boy will be proven wrong. Try again.

I'll try to help with your reading comprehension. "OK Then" is right. I never made a falsifiable prediction.

I said, "He could just as easily switch back." Do you know what that means? It means he might and he might not. He will just do whatever works for him personally.

Once again, as a lame duck, Tiny will do whatever benefits Tiny. He will no longer need to pretend that he cares about the abortion issue.

You know I'm right. Tiny has no core values. He has no principles except racism.

If you vote for Tiny because you think he will be pro-life then you are a fool.

Greed, ESPECIALLY with regard to this president = stupid

This isn't true at all. There's some greedy evil geniuses out there that know exactly how to play the game in order to insulate themselves and reap all the reward. If you really wanted to cover bases then you'd add "evil" as a third condition.

No, that IS true. You CAN be an evil genius yes, but that is not what's going on with those supporting Trump.

Being greedy puts one behind the 8 ball to begin with as greed is more often than not NOT rewarded. Our prisons and 12-step gambler's programs are filled with failed greed. BUT, since Trump has NO idea what he is doing in business or politics, for ANYONE to believe that he might lead them to a land of milk and honey, that person MUST be stupid. That person IS stupid.

Once again, there are only two reasons for a non-elected official to support Trump today:

1) JUST stupid.

2) Racist.

There are no other possibilities.

You made a stupid statement about Trump. Admit it. Only liberals infected with TDS agree with you. Trump has higher minority support than any other GOP President in recent history and he is going to win reelection.

Dude, what drugs are you on? Trump is NOT changing his pro-life stance. He will continue to nominate conservative judges to the circuit courts and to the Supreme Court.

What has this man done to make you think he would not change his pro-life stance?

He was pro-choice when it was convenient. Then he switch to pro-life when that was convenient.

There is no reason to think he will stick to principles he clearly does not have.

This is correct. Michael Cohen is right. Give Trump a long enough time, and he will screw you too. He is NOT an idealist (other than with the racism). He is a mentally-stunted individual with no morals and not even any principles. To believe that he will keep some hard-line stance forever is beyond foolish. There just is no evidence to support that.

I made a keen observation. You know I'm right and it's driving you crazy.

You can not point to any evidence that Tiny has strongly held beliefs on abortion. If re-elected, he will use the abortion issue as a bargaining chip to get what he really wants.

Wake up. He will sell you out and you know it.

There are some excellent posts in this conversation. The only thing I might take a bit of exception too, is Agip might have given the old Republican party a bit more credit than they deserved. But, in contrast to what the party has devolved to, I can understand why the old Republican party looked so good.

Seriously, read Confederacy of Dunces. The likeness between you and the main character is astonishing.

Anyways, Mueller speaks today so that should give everyone something new to talk about

REPUBLICANS SLAM TRUMP!!!

House conservatives are livid after President Donald Trump struck a budget deal with Democrats.

[Led by] Congressional Republican Chip Roy (TX), Republican lawmakers wrote a letter to Trump: "You should veto this bill because it is fiscally irresponsible. It blows well beyond what was intended with the 2011 [Budget Control Act] caps. Furthermore, it continues spending hundreds of billions more than what we take in a year and does not put our nation on a path towards a balanced budget."

These GOP legislators just don't get it. But they'll fall into line soon enough.

DJT will veto the bill *only* if he thinks it hurts his prospects for re-election and/or his popularity with his base (the same thing, essentially). Having no particular economic (or other) principles to guide him, he simply wouldn't--couldn't, actually--care about exploding the deficit in a time of plenty: To him, those are just numbers, and the great majority of GOP voters feel exactly the same.

The GOP legislators probably realize that their "slamming" will have no effect on President Trump, one way or the other, and are simply trying to establish their fiscal bona fides with their own districts' voters. But those Representatives still don't seem to understand that voters' hunger for fiscal sanity was part of the "old" GOP.

This is the new GOP, wherein the party's hardcore voters are perfectly happy to vote against their own short- and long-term economic interests . . . because, to them, the President can do no (literally, no) wrong, and any move he makes that can conceivably be construed as owning the libs is acceptable. How is a deal that explodes the deficit "owning the libs"? Because it was a deal that DJT made--it would be *his* deal, *his* bill, and *anything* he does that gets approved by Democratic Congresspeople is owning the libs.

Eventually the GOP reps will realize this (most probably have already, and are just cynically putting "protests" on record) and will fall into line with whatever the President wants. Because, as is well known, the importance of legislators' being re-elected far outweighs any other considerations.

Sorry, messed up that iteration. Try this one.

Experience has shown that President Trump might very well veto the budget, even if it is essentially what he agreed to. But that would come from an assessment of his re-election chances and not from whatever some GOP Representatives might say.

Before the hearing starts....

Someone provide a legal defense proving Trump did not obstruct? In the civilian world he would at least be indicted and his lawyers would make an argument.

So what is that argument?

Alan

Democrats are disgusting pieces of trash.

Yes, he would have been indicted.

But a defense lawyer does not have to prove that Trump did not obstruct.

The prosecutor has to prove that he did obstruct.

In a regular court, I believe it would be proved enough for conviction.

But in a Congressional trial ...

Is someone coming today?

CNN headline: Mueller confirms his report did not exonerate Trump

Fox News Headline: Mueller refusing to discuss Russia probe origins, affirms no election conspiracy found

Mueller is coming today. He will still be coming until all of the investigations that he pawned off that are ongoing are completed.

Those who are not elected officials who are still supporting Trump are one of two things:

1) JUST stupid

2) Racist

There are no other possibilities.

I will let you all know when Mueller has arrived.

No, you need to wake up. Trump is holding on to the pro-life platform, will be steadfast on keeping the tax cuts, nominate conservative judges and defeat your insane socialist nominee in 2020. If Trump were to ever change his abortion stance, the libs here will rejoice. What's next, will he expand funding for Planned Parenthood too? LMAO!!!!!

Trump will continue to make liberal heads explode for another 5+ years. You can count on that.

It’s one thing for you to rejoice in the demise of libs but a whole other for you to actually believe trump gives a damn about your conservative values. To clarify, do you really believe he cares about them and shares them with you?

this hearing is going to help the trumpists...mueller is old and confused and the Rs are willing to lie, scream and yell, while the Ds are trying to be good statesmen.

D vs R is such a mismatch - Ds are Ralph Macchio playing by the rules and Rs are Cobra Kai, trying to win by any means necessary.

Ach.
