hey, look at how much the left hates sarah palin!!! and she prob is the left most politician in america ever in terms of actual policies (wealth redistrib in alaska)

anyone else remember that hannity hosted infomercial back in 08? It went like:

Hannity: You give taxpayers money just for living in your state, really?

Palin: Yes.

Hannity: Even though you could tax and spend it like a liberal?

Palin: Yes.

hannity: wow, you're such a good governor

It may even be when he first debuted his Trump eyes, when they sparkle with love and adoration

Dems lost 1000 seats across the fed and state legislators but yeah he sure could win two presidential races by good margins!!!

Obama had enough charisma to win running on policies that would sink anyone with less charisma.

I'll fully admit that if Sarah Palin didn't have that folksy hokey doke twang I'd still hate her but like 75% less. Mike Huckabee has the same thing as a dude and I just remind him his kid killed a dog weekly on twitter.

pretty much. it's not like its his job to run the dnc.

plus he didn't lose to trump lmao go much of a gently caress up do you have to be to have 2 dudes who won the presidency then decide to ignore swing states lmao

He formed a massive grass roots org then did nothing with it. The sitting president is supposed to be the guide for the party and he guided it right into the ground. Then after the dems are nothing but a smoking ruin he rides back in on a silver horse to appoint Tom Perez to run the ashes.

im not sure how much i blame obama for the democratic partys losses because im unclear what specifically he was supposed to do to make the state parties be less full of nepotistic old twits

isn't this why PA went to poo poo?

like she campaigned a lot there but the state party is run by a huge piece of poo poo that purges anyone that wants to challenge him which is why dems have been super on the decline there?

For most anyone in government discussing such matters with an adversary would be illegal. As president, Trump has broad authority to declassify government secrets, making it unlikely that his disclosures broke the law.

quote:

At a more fundamental level, the information wasn’t the United States’ to provide to others. Under the rules of espionage, governments — and even individual agencies — are given significant control over whether and how the information they gather is disseminated even after it has been shared. Violating that practice undercuts trust considered essential to sharing secrets.

quote:

Trump also described measures that the United States has taken or is contemplating to counter the threat, including military operations in Iraq and Syria as well as other steps to tighten security, officials said.

quote:

“I’m sure Kislyak was able to fire off a good cable back to the Kremlin with all the details” he gleaned from Trump, said the former U.S. official who handled intelligence on Russia.

The President is a goddamn traitor feeding information to Russia.

In his meeting with Lavrov, Trump seemed to be boasting about his inside knowledge of the looming threat. “I get great intel. I have people brief me on great intel every day,” Trump said, according to an official with knowledge of the exchange.

It doesn't even phase me.

Houston, we're Havana problem.
"The information Trump relayed had been provided by a U.S. partner through an intelligence-sharing arrangement considered so sensitive that details have been withheld from allies and tightly restricted even within the U.S. government, officials said.

The partner had not given the United States permission to share the material with Russia, and officials said that Trump’s decision to do so risks cooperation from an ally that has access to the inner workings of the Islamic State. After Trump’s meeting, senior White House officials took steps to contain the damage, placing calls to the CIA and National Security Agency."

Allies are going to stop sharing intelligence with us and I don't blame them. Trump is a super stupid gently caress.
