It's very obvious trump has some sort of connection to Russia. If they can somehow prove he's been working with them for half a decade, with plans to eventually be president, it'd be a pretty shocking political story. And, again, not an unbelievable one.

Sweet. Good to know.
Going to be a fun 4 years....
Isn't that one of his top responses (along with "overrated") whenever he gets his feelings hurt? I mean, it is hilarious to see someone about to be our leader acting like a bitchy teen on a daily basis, but...iclfan2;1832351 wrote:Trump called buzzfeed a "Failing pile of garbage". Hilarious

I feel like this isn't real life.
You are an admitted Clinton voter so we can see why you are rooting against Trump. It is ok, you should be used to supporting losers.SportsAndLady;1832320 wrote:Lol. What did I say that is now backfiring? Am I being mistaken for..gulp, a libtard?!
Just posting the story on here, didn't post it as fact. I acknowledged it was unverified info, it's just my personal belief that a story like this is very believable.
And my line about trump not lasting 4 years was more about how the left wing media is throwing out stories left and right to try and take down trump. If one of them is proven to be true, they won't stop until he's gone.
What I hoped (and looked forward to the LULZ) with Trump winning was that partisan hacks on both sides would get a good look in the mirror. Unfortunately, most of these people appear to lack the capacity for such self-awareness.thavoice;1832425 wrote:You are an admitted Clinton voter so we can see why you are rooting against Trump.

Unfortunately the only thing that will bring partisanship back is a national tragedy. No side is immune to being a partisan hack. When a DEM is in office, Foxnews will run story after story and blame everything on the dem pres, when a Rep is in office the CNNs and the other outlets will do the same and be insufferable. It is just how the country has become.gut;1832426 wrote:What I hoped (and looked forward to the LULZ) with Trump winning was that partisan hacks on both sides would get a good look in the mirror.

I will say the reaction to Trump is making those wingnut birthers look sane and rational in comparison.
An actual good economy would go a long way. If the Dems (and Trump) would stop with the identity politics and victimization that would really go a long way.thavoice;1832427 wrote: Sadly, I dont think anyone could.

Not sure I'd go so far as to say it makes them look sane, but it certainly shows that they have company from across the aisle in the 'big bag o' crazy'. See isadore's post below, referring to Trump as the "Urolagniac Chief Executive."gut;1832426 wrote:I will say the reaction to Trump is making those wingnut birthers look sane and rational in comparison.
I think the next time we see the potential for this is when a third-party candidate wins one day, assuming it happens. It will get the two major parties out from behind vilifying the President-Elect because they have an 'R' or 'D' next to their name.thavoice;1832427 wrote:What we do need is someone who can unite the country.

Are you sure that wouldn't result in BOTH parties vilifying the POTUS simultaneously?O-Trap;1832457 wrote: It will get the two major parties out from behind vilifying the President-Elect because they have an 'R' or 'D' next to their name.
Oh, it will, but if the third-party candidate ends up having policy agreements with both of them, it will be hard to treat them as a full yin to the yang.gut;1832458 wrote:Are you sure that wouldn't result in BOTH parties vilifying the POTUS simultaneously?
That might be the only hope for a responsible budget. Both the Dems and Repubs rail about the deficit when they don't have the power to do anything about it, but neither will accept the political risk when they do have the power to do something.O-Trap;1832460 wrote: When it comes to fiscal policy (in theory) or the Second Amendment, the Republicans would have little choice but to show love to a Libertarian..
