    Then Prince Eric the Odd chimed in with a succinct comment

    Eric Trump, the 34-year old third child of President Donald Trump, posted a tweet Thursday night that left a good deal of room for interpretation – and for mockery.

    I truly hate disloyal people

    It's thought that he was talking about family.

    Every president in my lifetime (with the probable exception of Nixon) while I disagreed with many of them, I could see them at least being decent people in their personal lives.
    This guy is just a douchebag.

    Not for nothing, but I do find it pretty humorous that the entirety of Fox News's primetime lineup - from the set, to the graphics, to the content - feels like a parody stripped from a Paul Verhoeven movie. I'm waiting for the shows to be officially be sponsored by Omni Consumer Products.

    Co-sign. Some of them were seriously flawed--Clinton comes to mind, and Reagan by all accounts was a better friend and second husband than father and first husband--but there was a core of decent person or at least a well-meaning person inside all of them. Hell, I'm even willing to consider the idea that much of Nixon's ugliness was the product of inner demons which were at least grounded in his own experience.

    There's nothing good about Donald Trump. Nothing. He is a thoroughly bad person.

    I'll have a bladder full of piss waiting for a month after he dies.

    And I might binge on Taco Bell the night before, too.

    I’m more than a little annoyed that something like sexual harassment could be protected by a blanket NDA.

    In case we all forgot

    "The greatest conceit in public life today is the notion that we don’t already know President Trump is guilty. Guilty of what? Conspiring, by whatever level of directness, with a foreign power to win the Presidency and then continuing to cater to that foreign power either as payback for the assistance or out of fear of being exposed. In other words, collusion, a national betrayal that may break some statute laws but which far transcends them and isn’t in the past but is rather on-going."

    What a brilliant idea.....I am surprised it has not been implemented before. What could go wrong with this?


    “President Trump is increasingly venting frustration to his national security team about the U.S. strategy in Afghanistan and showing renewed interest in a proposal by Blackwater founder Erik Prince to privatize the war, ” NBC News reports.
    “Prince’s idea, which first surfaced last year during the president’s Afghanistan strategy review, envisions replacing troops with private military contractors who would work for a special U.S. envoy for the war who would report directly to the president.”
    “Prince, a staunch Trump supporter whose sister is Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, argues that after 17 years of war in Afghanistan, it’s time for the U.S. to try something new.”

    That piece of shit: that is NOT privatizing the war. That is OUTSOURCING the war. Which will make it a lot more expensive.

    He then went around the room polling attendees about if it was, in fact, napalm or Agent Orange in the famous scene from “that movie,” as the gathering—organized to focus on important, sometimes life-or-death issues for veterans—descended into a pointless debate over Apocalypse Now that the president simply would not concede, despite all the available evidence.​

    Too bad they didn't have a moderator who could move the "Apocalypse Now" discussion to a separate thread..

    Sorry...but no. This isn’t something unique. The press is doing the same as they’ve always done. They’ve stopped reporting facts....and instead write about what both side say about those facts. Note....when those facts paint one side in a bad light....it’s just ********ing reality....not biased.

    Trump....right now...is witness tampering when he pulls the security clearances from potential witnesses. Yet the media calls it playing politics.

    His crimes now go way beyond collusion with Russia. He’s done them in plain sight. He’s ********ing admitted them on national tV. Yet we have to wait until mueller concludes his Russia probe to start talking formally about impeachment ?

    We have to wait until the House & possibly the Senate swing to the other party to start talking formally about impeachment.
