The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming!

An even worse scenario. The Mueller investigation clearly implicates Trump but he hangs on until the 2020 presidential election year and he loses the nomination either in the primaries or at a deadlocked GOP national convention which nominates a brokered and or drafted alternative candidate.
We know how vindictive and narcissistic he is and to him politics is simply about winning. Now if he should lose the biggest game of his life what will he try to do to get even?

he'll probably cut your government hand outs .at which point you'll have to earn your keep

 

[Old Man Jingles]

Just one more example of "double standards."

Gosh Durn!
I just love Double Standards!

 

[Old Man Jingles]

well said.

bill moyers used to cover the kochs all the time. sheldon wolin gave some damning stats about them owning the republican party.

the issue is money in politics. the russian thing is turning out to b a huge distraction

That sounds like a little too much digging for me to understand.
Sounds good though.

Yeah. He hates handouts.

Layoffs from Trump tariffs are piling up. So are calls for more bailouts.

Funny how some Americans think it's fine to raise healthcare costs on everyone so that we can give free healthcare to millions, but want to slam efforts to bring jobs to millions even though it costs short term pain for some. WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT IS THEY WANT TO PRESSURE TRUMP TO END TARIFFS BEFORE THEY PROVE SUCCESSFUL AND AFFECT THEIR CHANCES IN THE MIDTERMS. Too late, Europe has already made concessions. Think Trump is going to back down now?

 

[BrownArmy]

OMG, wait for Mueller to report.

Other than that, who cares.

Nonsense, try again.

Touche!

Ummm. Newfie is the one complaining about handouts. I’m pointing out the irony.

Maybe you could explain it to him.

Oh. Explain it to the Koch brothers too.

Saw an interview in 2016 with one of the Koch brothers. Think it was Charles but can't remember. He described himself as a classic liberal who supported the Republicans because they weren't running us into the ditch as fast as the Democrats. Of course because they're super rich and support the Republicans they're the boogeyman to people like Ricky and Bacha. But it seems more likely they're master chess players as applied to politics, and see the writing on the wall. The rest of us think we're on the ball, but they didn't just fall into all that money and power. Interesting to see if they're Trump supporters and whether they'll continue to be.

Wapo an anti Trump daily with a comic and sports section.

And when they had the devastating earthquake that killed hundreds of thousands and displaced many more who was there to help?

You’d think we would have been in Peurto Rico.

 

[vantexan]

We are, but the earthquake happened long before the hurricane. And Puerto Rico was already in serious financial trouble from mismanagement when the hurricane struck. Surprise, no money to fix things! Call Uncle Sugar!
