flynn accepted payments from Russian entities for speaking engagements

B-b-b-but Hillary gave goldman sachs speeches

Lol pisstape real

He accepted money from Russian companies for speaking fees? Whole thousands of dollars? The nerve of the guy. I didn't know there was some kind of complete ban on interacting with Russians. That's something that seems retroactive starting when Trump won the election . Flynn also got fired.

Also the point of that article is that he didn't disclose those payments in February, but did last week.

I wonder if there are neocons and neolibs (ie McCain/Cheney/Schiff) who actually believe we should "regime change" Russia the same way we did Iraq. Like Russia is at all comparable to Iraq and Putin is like the new Saddam Hussein.

Nope. Nope, nope, nope, nope, never, nope, never.

Why? Because Russia's not a toothless empire we can poo poo on for political reasons. Lots of fuckers would die if we tried that, if not everybody in a nuclear fireball.

So noooooooope. Not. Going. To. Happen. They aren't even entertaining that thought.

Only time will tell when it comes to the accomplishments of Donald Trump's. Historically, Trump's mannerisms are significantly different than the known mannerisms of past successful Presidents. This may lead one to the hypothesis that the presidency of Trump will be a significant failure.

This statement leads one to question, would our benchmark for successful presidencies be different if the media had been equal to today's during, FDRs presidency? Can we conclude that FDR did not or did not share mannerisms with President Donald Trump? No, we cannot.
If FDR had the ability to stand and perform the act, and the availability of personal recording devices were as ubiquitous as today, he may have produced a piss tape.

The evidence is even present that yes, FDR would have produced a piss tape. The fact that he married his own cousin lends to the credibility that FDR was a peeing kinkmaster who enjoyed pain so much that he developed an atomic bomb to drop on people.

He knows the answer on healthcare is single payer but he can't go that far out of his childish libertarian sensibilities.

He talked about how to get insurance costs down by letting people join collectives for bargaining power but can't get to "Therefore the best answer everyone in one group" because that would lead to only or one or a handful of carriers but that makes the free market sad.

Actually, Sanders has balls of loving steel and is known a seasoned strongman who gets poo poo done in the Senate. He has almost 3 decades of experience in Congress. He's one of the most effective cutthroat Senators at getting his agenda pushed through and even most Republicans respect him for that.

But you're too ignorant to realize actual expertise and diplomacy unless some dumbass is vomiting garbage all over Twitter. Real politicians get it done behind the scenes and don't need to construct an idiot posturing facade.
