Y'all haven't realised the full horror of what 45 was proposing. (In discussion with Judge Jeanine.)

They might be getting rid of the daily pressers - apart from every fortnight or so when Trump would do them himself!

cozietoesie · 12/05/2017 20:48

I don't have enough information on the attack, Across. I'll suspend judgement until I do.

I so so wish he'd do a long press conference like he did before.

I have 'tapes'. I will release them for money.

Someone asked earlier what Trump's nickname (à la "Crying Chuck" Schumer). How about Tinyhands Trump?

^ there's a "should be" missing from the post above.

Trumps letter about his taxes? Dated March.

And from firm which won Russian law for of the year, & with ties to Rosneft.

I think the cyber-attack that went on today was aimed at 'testing' the security of UK sites with the run up to the election. Any other 'hacks' are a smoke screen to disguise it.

I agree, and that's one reason I mentioned it.

I'm just not sure it was aimed at the UK. It affected other countries as well, including mine. But I suspect it served to distract from something.

Why can't he be American and be the US president? WHY WHY??

I also like how his kids (if you look at picture towards bottom of article) are dressed like normal kids. Not in Kennedy-esque outfits, like Ivanka's children.

cozietoesie · 12/05/2017 21:16

People sometimes forget that what isn't declared in official documents such as tax returns is often as ........... interesting as what is included. Smile

GingerIvy · 12/05/2017 21:17

Meanwhile, back to the slimy cesspool that is the US govt/politics right now......

Replying to @fawfulfan
Ryan and McConnell will let Trump do anythinganything at allrather than risk losing the White House. That's why they're more dangerous.

Trump floats canceling WH briefings & doing them himself once every 2 weeks; complains about “level of hostility … [Spicer] gets beat up” twitter.com/foxnews/status/863109918928142336 …

cozietoesie · 12/05/2017 21:21

I think - 'think' - he referred to Spicey as a 'wonderful human being' and to Huckleberry as a 'lovely young girl'.

Lweji · 12/05/2017 21:21

There's a Fox News and a Fox News Radio.
AP also has an extra for Radio.

The Guardian shares with FT, Al Jazeera with Chicago Sun(day?) Times.

Important: The Christian Science Monitor Hmm, no Breitbart Grin.

Senate Intel Committee exploring ways to obtain Trump's Comey 'tapes,' but unclear if they exist -@EmilyRPeck www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-comey-tapes_us_59160449e4b0031e737d8c2f?ncid=engmodushpmg00000004 …

I think they don't exist. Another distraction. And Comey has already effectively said "bring it on" as far as tapes are concerned. I don't think he's worried at all. Trump, on the other hand, won't risk any further incrimination (possibly?). The most interesting would be if he released them because in his mind it was incriminating for Comey, yet it was clear cut incriminating for Trump instead. He has shown a habit of hearing what he WANTS to hear not what is actually said.

The 'parallel universe' that is Sean Hannity.

You had Obama, now you have the opposite. Yin and Yang.

That's what I was wondering, Ginger. Whether if you say 'black' and he wants 'blue', he actually hears 'blue'. Gawd help us if so.

You just couldn't make it up. If Trump POTUS was a book it would be critiqued as surreal fantastical nonsense.
What month do you think it will explode and Trump no more, no more, no more.........as the song goes?

GingerIvy · 12/05/2017 21:26

I want Yin back!!!! Someone take Yang away!!!!
