I love how Trump still has to tell everyone how great his election victory was, especially when he does tells it to other heads of government, which usually (except for his buddies in KSA ofc) have won elections themselves, most of them a lot more than Trump ever will.

Man, it's embarrassing to see a respected military guy like McMaster shred his own reputation by making excuses for Trump:

You should appreciate that McMaster is paying the ultimate price to keep Trump somewhat in check by serving under him.

There was an NPR interview with one of McMasters friends. They were in the same West Point class together decades ago and have been friends ever since.

The friend said that is what is happening. McMasters is slowly sacrificing his own legacy and credibility to keep Trump from jumping the country off the deep end.

We just have to hope that McMaster can channel his inner Jack Ryan if Trump wants to nuke some place and can prevent it (see: The Sum of All Fear).

The current President of the United States was elected after a tape of him explaining that sexual assault is cool when you are a celebrity and rich went public. Do you really think the people who voted for him care about alleged connections of his underlings to Russia?

You see, that's why he is going to give the Russians the full details of all his sources, so that they can have a private talk with them to confirm his stories.

ahahaha apparently they were boo'ing the poo poo out of lech walesa when Trump introduced him since the crowd is full of fascists

It's a literal PiS crowd.

But you have to admire the planning by the Poles, by having the crowd cheer "Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump" they probably did secure his Article 5 commitment.

Really wanna know what that Polish chant is, and really hoping it's a Polish "Sieg Heil".

It's "DONALD TRUMP" and if they are shouting faster it's just "TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP".

So yeah, it's the 21st century international version of "sieg heil"

Trump making a risky political gamble here by implying the Nazis were bad.

I don't really get how the Warsaw Uprising, which failed, saved the West.

And what the gently caress is "the West" for Trump?

Trump can remove Mueller but what is that going to achieve? It's not like the issue will go away, he might buy himself a little time, but unless he gets his approval ratings, and thereby Congresses support of him up by a significant margin, there will be a thorough investigation of his dealings with Russia whether he likes it or not.

I feel like that would run afoul of the 27th amendment, since it specifies congressional wages cant be increased or decresed until the start of the next congress

Actually it would run afoul of Article 1 of the Constitution which states that

quote:

The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States.

So yeah, great idea.
