So could Kush panic at the prospect of going to prison like Daddy, scream for immunity and throw Trump and the rest of his inner circle under the bus? Cause man...that'd be just great.

All this time, I assumed Trump just tweeted out and never read the responses, because since the Russians turned off the bots the responses are almost universally negative. She must've really gotten under his skin, perhaps she hit a bit too close? Hmm.

Since Voat is choking to death, I'd say option 4 isn't really a worry. Totally unrelated, I'm starting to think that France has the healthiest democracy because the French Revolution is so ingrained in their cultural blood that the wealthy know they're a guillotine and angry mob away from losing it all that balance needs to be maintained.

Willo567 posted:Off topic, but are there any other good sites for political discussion? Metafilter is okay. The userbase is well informed and the discussion is thorough. The only downside is in the last few years they've fallen deep into the "identity politics-Tumblr-left", so inbetween informative posts, you have to put up with people talking about how they're having "Dissociative episodes", "Literally shaking" and how there "ain't no politics like identity politics". But its mostly good.

So my boss (who is somewhat uninformed, in my opinion) seems to think "someone" is testifying tomorrow. Is someone testifying tomorrow? (Note: I am/might be ironically uninformed because I know of no one testifying tomorrow) I know Comey is up Thursday. Please note, I'm Canadian, so here any "Trump" supporters are basically disregarded as HUGE racists*. *LOL all the TUMP-alikes bombed in the runup for Conservative leadership so we ended up with a "normal" HATE-THE-GAYS Conservative party leader. Yay, Canada hasn't lost it's mind...yet

In lighter news, the Trump brand must be suffering because Trump Organization to Go Budget Friendly With ‘American Idea’ Hotel Chain The NYT says: posted:On Monday, the Trump Organization announced plans for a new three-star hotel chain with a patriotic flair, echoing President Trump’s campaign slogan about putting America first and reflecting the organization’s promise to enter into new deals only in the United States. The intention is to differentiate the chain, called American Idea, by featuring artifacts of American culture in the hotels, such as an old Coca-Cola machine in the lobby or American-made sundries in the rooms. Quick! We need tacky Motels that our stupid base can afford cause they're too poor to buy our expensive tacky stuff!

That seems like the last thing you'd want to do. Also, ignoring the "PISS TAPES REAL" (which they are, why would he try to start an investigation into proving they're false), there was a ton of incriminating stuff in the Steele Dossier that wasn't about piss.

evilweasel posted:I doubt it. There was nothing actually devastating in the DNC emails. Nothing career-ending or the like - just enough to stoke the paranoia of berniebros who believed they'd been robbed and to keep the word "email" in the news against hillary EMAILS EMAILS EMAILS clinton. I'm sure they'd rather they not come out as they'd be annoying, but I'd doubt there's something blackmailable in there enough to control people. I don't know, I imagine there's some pretty disparaging remarks against Trump and his antics that would be enough to drive a wedge through the Trump supporters and King Cheeto. He's pretty thin skinned. Also, I'm sure they knew all about his ties to Russia and wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't in the GOP emails as well.

You mean he hadn't studied this stuff before? Like during the transition?  "I'm new to this and don't know these darn laws and you're silly constitution, so I guess I'll learn them" is a thing the President of the United States actually said. Where can I see this full conference in all its stupidity?

Yesssss.... What' I'm actually looking forward to, in addition to watching racist-kebler-elf squirm, is that I'm sure Trump is aware of the ratings of these hearings and will probably testify in public just so he can brag about how many more people watched his testimony than Sessions and Comey.

A bit off topic, but its obvious that Trump's primary motivator at the moment is to de-assemble Obama's legacy no matter the cost. I also know that Trump is a deeply vengeful man, obsessed with revenge. Why does Trump hate Obama so much? I saw the press dinner thing where Seth Meyer just tore into Trump (god its a satisfying watch) and everyone, including Obama, was laughing at Trump. The birtherism stuff was before that, though. So what inspired the birtherism stuff? Is it just that Trump is such a deep-down racist that he couldn't stand seeing a black man as President? Or did Obama slight Trump directly somehow?
