[Mani-Man]

She already sided with Trump.

Kellyanne Conway Defends Trump Amid Feud With Her Husband: ‘You Think He Should Just Take That Sitting Down?’

Of course she does.
Imagine having the person that promised to stand by your side in front of God and your family, stabbing you in the back for Donald Trump.
I mean it shouldnt be a surprise but somehow it still is that Kellyanne has no backbone.

"I didn't get a thank you"? He wants a thank you for lowering a flag to half mast?

You gotta love this "i dont get a thanks but thats okay" because you know absolutly that this is what makes him mad.
That he didnt get a thank you or any praise...it must keep him awake at night and fuel his Mccain attacks.

 

[Fading]

Oh my God.


There is no bottom.

Disgusting, and as always Trump has to try and make it all about him. I imagine it infuriated him that McCain had people mourning him during his funeral. Rather than them going up to the podium, and praising Trump instead. He's been surrounded by so many sycophants, and yes men, that he probably feels uncomfortable when he's not being praised.

 

[Fading]

I should be over it by now, but how do some people still see him as some moral paragon? As a pro troops guy? As someone to look up to?

You say you like him because of his, "tell it how it is attitude". Or because you think he's America first... Fine. I strongly disagree, but it falls in line with the empty rhetoric he repeats at all of his rallies. However, he's been far from pro troop, or being morally sound. If you're going to contort yourself into a pretzel to defend him, at least don't give him traits that are the polar opposite of who he is, or what he pretends

You can't have your cake, and eat it too. How can his followers not notice the error in logic of cheering on traits in Trump that they later says he doesn't possess. Like saying they like his, "tell it how it is attitude", or how he, "owns the libs". While simultaneously acting like he's this kindly, virtuous peace maker who never bad mouths people. Or saying he's pro troops. While cheering him on as he mocks dead soldiers, 5 star families, and removes transgendered servicemen and women. Either he is, or isn't something.

I hope it's worth it for her. She's not exactly popular. I see her having a hard time finding another job after this. She isn't Paul Ryan, buttering up corporations for an easy, high paying gig after retirement. She's just a bad mouth piece for Trump. On top of that she may also lose her husband in the process.

Possibly ruining the rest of her life all for Trump.

Slime like her has its way of sticking to a surface no matter how hard you scrub.
So im pretty sure she will land on her feet after Trump.
Its the sad thing, all this clowns who activly help Trump in kicking americas feet away, will not be poorer or in a worse situation when the time of Lord Dumpbaby is over.

[Silvermoon]

**sigh** honesty my foot - isn't he up to something like 9,000+ false or misleading claims? (and the talking heads aren't any better "celebrating SO many wins")


and quoting others

 

[Teelie]

9000? This year maybe. Last year and the year before were probably triple that. Each. He's such a compulsive liar he would only speak the truth by accident.

Ahh... found what it was that was referencing the 9,000+ number (had to go digging through my twitter timeline to find where it had been mentioned)

https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...er-days/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.127c9f8ad996

As of the end of March 3, the 773rd day of his term in office, Trump accumulated 9,014 fishy claims, according to The Fact Checker’s database that analyzes, categorizes and tracks every suspect statement uttered by the president.

Update, March 17: As of 787 days in office, the tally is 9,179 claims

Vox - Trump’s Pentagon chief under Boeing-related ethics probe
Did Trump’s defense secretary favor Boeing? The Pentagon’s watchdog wants to find out.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Children separated from their parents, thrown in cages, and getting completely lost in the system (or dying). THOUSANDS of lives lost after a hurricane because he's too much of a cheapskate s***bag and a racist to bother with a proper response. White supremacists murdering people at home and abroad (sometimes in huge numbers), who are clearly inspired by his rhetoric. Americans being told they can't serve their country because of how they identify. A "charity" organization that had to be shut down because the funds were being used to enrich him and his horrible family. Planes falling out of the ****ing sky.

But nope, not enough to impeach him! We have to actually see PROOF that he did something wrong. **** everyone in the government protecting him, and every last person who voted for him. The blood is on your racist hands.

Is it really only that many lies?

 

[Silvermoon]

Yup...totally "Making America Great Again"

AP News: With black lung fund in jeopardy, taxpayers could foot bill

 

[DJ Kornphlake]

Is it really only that many lies?

That's about a dozen a day. Plus it's only counting the lies since he's been in office; not the 70 years before.

 

[Deck Rickard]

SNL should do “Liar Liar 2” and have Trump (Baldwin) wake up and not be able to tell lies.

How Trump is on track for a 2020 landslide

I disagree with everything that article stated for several reasons.

 

[samsnee]

I wouldn't say landslide, but the odds always favor the incumbent. And whether or you want to believe it's due to him or not, the economy is doing well enough that voters will be more forgiving of his other trangressions.

I hope it's wrong on all counts.

 

[DeadPresident]

He’ll win, the only thing that’ll unseat him is impeachment or resignation.

The midterms disagree.

 

[mclay18]

The midterms disagree.

Yes. In that way, Trump is a great motivator for Democrats to come and vote him out if he is not forced to resign or indicted before.

And his toadies are just kowtowing to him, ie McConnell and Graham. They're not doing their jobs and they're ignoring the warning signs, which don't bode well for Trump or them. Moderates and independents made their point clear last year where they stood... and it does not favor Trump.

He will have a hard time next year. I'm not saying he won't win, but good luck trying to get 100,000 votes in the right states for another EC victory. People who gave him a chance in 2016 are burnt on him, which means they will either sit it out or vote for the Democrat.

 

[MaceB]

The midterms disagree.

Not really. Midterms are usually difficult for the incumbent party while re-elections are usually easier for the incumbent party. Trump is following the standard model, as far as the midterm is concerned.

 

[Sithborg]

sigh

Ignore that the Dems were able to flip 7 governor's seats. Quite a few in the states that he won. Even ignoring the uncertainty of Florida at the moment, as no one knows how such a large influx of voters will affect things, the three key states Trump won are not likely to go to him. Add in some other factors, and I think he is going to have a tougher time than you might think.

That's not to say not to take him for granted, of course.

 

[DJ Kornphlake]

And I doubt the Dem candidate will have the baggage that Hillary had.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

Unfortunately (or fortunately) the voters/electoral college don't seem to value lately experience in a presidential candidate seeing it as baggage, more often than not the electoral college choosing a perceived outsider when a flip happens.
