What he said was so fucking stupid lol

"We are the diverse America and we just want you to know we are real anxious about you and Trump!"

And then everyone starts cheering when he said we want you to do well for all of America!

What the fuck man lol just act in your stupid broadway play, stop being political during it.

It's like democrats are making a conscious effort to stay the minority for the next 10+ years.

...on potential AG Jeff Sessions...

"...[FONT=&amp]As a U.S. attorney, Sessions helped to desegregate Alabama schools. He also led the prosecution of Henry Francis Hays, the head of the state’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan, charged with the murder of a black teenager, Michael Donald. Hays was ultimately executed, and a $7 million civil judgment against the Klan helped crush the group in Alabama. Sessions’s judgment about the Voting Rights Act, meanwhile, has been mispresented. Sessions voted with every single Senate Republican to reauthorize the VRA in 2006. ...

[/FONT]...[FONT=&quot]While Democrats point to a handful of decades-old charges, Sessions has earned many more plaudits — of much more recent vintage. In 2009, Pennsylvania senator Arlen Specter, recently switched to the Democratic party, admitted, “My vote against candidate Sessions for the federal court was a mistake.” The senator, who as a Republican in the 1980s had crossed party lines to oppose Sessions, said that he had discovered, working with him in the Senate, that Sessions “is egalitarian.” FCC commissioner Ajit Pai, a Republican who worked for Sessions on the Senate Judiciary Committee, greeted news of his nomination with a statement taking aim at Sessions’s character assassins: Sessions, he wrote, is “honorable, thoughtful, devoted to the Constitution, and deeply committed to equal justice and the rule of law.”..."[/FONT]

He didn't seem to, but Daddy Don doesn't seem to agree, since he's doing his usual whining.

Trump posts a tweet praising Chuck Shumer and saying he has a great relationship with him. As someone who supports President Obama and thinks he has been a decent President - I can't think of any times off the top of my head when he went out of his way to praise Mitch McConnell, etc.

The Democrats and the truly liberal press (e.g. HuffPo) are making a huge mistake IMHO by seeking to demonize Trump at the outset because there is a policy vacuum that others on the Trump Train will happily fill e.g. The Alt-Right folks.

Like my God they already trashing Trump's infrastructure plan as opposed to offering amendments, etc.

From everything I can see the Democrats are doing everything they can to make their devastating loss that much more devastating.

Depending on the circumstances I wouldn't be against it if it actually worked but it doesn't.

Napolean on torture:
The barbarous custom of having men beaten who are suspected of having important secrets to reveal must be abolished. It has always been recognized that this way of interrogating men, by putting them to torture, produces nothing worthwhile. The poor wretches say anything that comes into their mind and what they think the interrogator wishes to know.

Ehh, I'm sure it has worked at some point. And if it doesn't work on someone then what harm is done?

Its psychological. It isn't actual torture. I'm talking water boarding only, and it's to terrorists sooo...

sorry, not directed at you....according to the GC, it's torture.

They get around this by A) terrorists are not enemy combatants under the GC and B) it's done off US soil

By legal definition it is. But it seems pretty low level to make someone feel like they are drowning compared to actual violent torture acts.
I forgot that we need to care about the feelz of terrorists though.
