I think Sen Graham knows that he is pretty well protected by the party and other senators. Trump can call him names or accuse him of being a 'traitor' to the Party, but his reputation as a staunch GOP party member will speak for itself.

What angers me the most about Trump is that I'm forced to prioritize what angers me the most about Trump every couple of hours. #ItsAllBad

I've never heard such language used by a Senator about a President. I'd say he's already lost them, emotionally.

I can't vouch for the veracity of this:

Jared Kushner tells Turkish newspaper: "Like Trump, Erdogan is working to make his country great again."

There was a real West Wing vibe to it Gumpendorf. I was thinking you can actually see O'Donnell was/is an actor, although I did need it pointed out to me. Grin.

Why the Scariest Nuclear Threat May Be Coming from Inside the White House

US Joint Chiefs of Staff tells military there will be no modification to transgender policy until direction received from Pres

So, they mean he hasn't actually signed any orders, right?

Paradox.

'Every member of the U.S. military has sworn an oath to defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic and to obey the officers and the president of the United States as commander and chief appointed over us.'

The President has also sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution.

No one seems to have told him.

...about then candidate Trump." Catherine Herridge @FoxNews. So why doesn't Fake News report this? Witch Hunt! Purposely phony reporting.

Thanks for the link to the piece about D.O.E. Pain. Nothing has been more calculated to send me to Gin than the details in it. Hanford ?? Sheez.

It's a meaty piece but everyone should read the whole thing if they're not of a tender disposition.

Lweji · 27/07/2017 18:29

What a twat. The giveaway was that the Russians didn't spread fake info about Trump or hacked their emails...

cozietoesie · 27/07/2017 18:32

He only really listens to NICE things, Roussette. Wink

cozietoesie · 27/07/2017 18:34

Has something happened? Wall St is not happy.

Yeah everything else is just FAKE! He goes from bad to worse. Then from worse to ridiculously worse. Then from that to gobsmackingly worse. And so on...
