All out effort to shore up the 'Spygate' false narrative today. I see the F and F interview is pre-recorded I wonder whyWink

'Former President Barack Obama has already dedicated much of his post-presidency to building his presidential library in his hometown of Chicago. New Yorkers are likely not ready to start thinking about a Trump library. In their defense, it’s kind of an absurd concept.'

Trump's behaviour yesterday showed what a truly vile person he is.

He's unhinged and maybe whatever has happened with Melania has helped here. If she was hiding to cover from cosmetic surgery, why draw attention to herself by moving to NY if she has

Lordy. That's harsh. (Merited, though.)

I would just ignore any twittering about Herself.

lionheart · 29/05/2018 10:15

Yes, merited. Struggling to see anything right or good or gracious about this man.

ohmymimi · 29/05/2018 10:29

The WaPo cartoon is perfect, better than a thousand words.
But you cannot shame the shameless, all attempts just fuel their aggrievement.
What ever your feelings about the military/elective warfare, this is a true service and sacrifice, and totally foreign to the Trump clan:

At Santa Monica High, [Stephen] Miller constantly found ways to rile his classmates. He loudly complained about the Spanish-language announcements that came over the PA system, and once jumped into the homestretch of a girls’ track race, evidently to prove male athletic superiority.

This must have enhanced his already enormous popularity with his female classmates.

Good piece. He's a weakling, though.

"But after some reflection, he admits that he has long found value in doing things that generate what he calls “constructive controversy—with the purpose of enlightenment"

At least two people in Trumpworld recently likened his West Wing to “Game of Thrones” — but not for the reasons you might think.

"“Last year was the year of adjustment. He was constrained by an axis of adults and adjusting to be president,” said Thomas Wright, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. “This year is the year of action. He’s giving the orders, even if there’s resistance."

"“Next year,” he continued, “is the hangover year, the year of living with the consequences.”"

Ah, but for whom? Sadly, I think the US will. Trump, as President, less so. Unless he's muellerised. Or Congress shifts.

I don’t bother copying DT’s tweets now as they are repetitive and boring. This one just now, though, has crossed a line. It directly accuses Democrats - and the Mueller investigation - of rigging the mid-terms. So, Trump has thrown the word ‘collusion’ and a criminal cloud over the Democrats’ heads. However, ‘obstruction’ becomes much more of a legal possibility for him.

The 13 Angry Democrats (plus people who worked 8 years for Obama) working on the rigged Russia Witch Hunt, will be MEDDLING with the mid-term elections, especially now that Republicans (stay tough!) are taking the lead in Polls. There was no Collusion, except by the Democrats!

Can Democrats sue Trump for libel, I wonder.

He's floating a new trial balloon today, branding the investigating election meddling:

This is why he is so dangerous. He is only interested in protecting himself, and will use anything, regardless of the consequences, including undermining the election process.
Even if he left office tomorrow, the consequences will endure. Damage has been done, and every day he is in office it spreads deeper and wider.

'In the Middle East, Putin has a lot to thank Trump for right now
Once it was the State Department which called for 'restraint on all sides' – usually when the Israelis were invading or bombing Lebanon or Gaza – but now it’s the Kremlin which calls for 'restraint' between Israel and Iran. Putin is fast becoming a friend to all'
