Why do you hate the Peruvians?

We in New York initially came to know Trump as a buffoon from the outer boroughs who craved acceptance by high society Manhattan types. That sort of motivation appears to continue to drive him today.

I keep saying Putin has video evidence of Trump raping one or more underage Russian girls who look like Ivanka.

Quit talking like that.

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

I posted much the same thing later in this thread, before I scrolled back in time.

If it quacks like a duck and waddles like a duck, it's probably a duck. Is Donald a duck ? Under American law, colluding with a foreign government to influence American elections is a crime.

It's no surprise that Trump refused to confront Putin over Russian cyber attacks against the US and our election. Trump was the major beneficiary, after all. Surely you must remember Trump publicly asking Putin to send stolen emails to wikileaks? The day after his election team met with Kremlin lawyers and intelligence agents ?

Cheer up! Every country has had a few rulers that were way, way worse than Trump, had way more power than him, and had no term limit. Guess what? These countries are still standing. Countries like England, France, Spain, Russia, Egypt, China, Japan, and many more: it's been millenia, and they're all still standing!

Haley pushes back at Larry Kudlow's clam she was confused: ""With all due respect, I don't get confused." It's worth noting that in Kudlow's case "all due respect" is none.

And that, horribly enough, is not even improbable. Donald Trump was not just accused, but charged in a civil lawsuit by a "Jane Doe" with raping her when she was thirteen, in tandem with convicted billionaire pedophile Epstein, whom Trump is on record as describing as "a terrific guy, known him for years ... a lot of fun."She withdrew the suit without disclosing her identity, but she was doubtless thinking, "Oh my God, he's going to be President! I haven't got a chance! And some crazy supporter of his might even kill me!"Yeah, I can literally believe what you just posted, Cletus Safari. With nauseated ease.

Funny enough. The first things the CIA handlers for the Mujahideen did was take the AK47s off them and give them reliable .303s. Lucky for everyone involved the Pakistani Army just happened to have a lot of them available in their armouries to selll.

'Short of the Holy Spigot knocking you up there is not a lot that our organisation can do for you at this point. Have you thought about Satanism?'

Weird to be on the side of Nikki Haley but I hope she sees that her hero threw her under the bus and understands that he will do so again and again yelling fuck you as she heads out the door-permanently.

"Surely you must remember." Are you a professor, perhaps? Guessing.

It sounds like Nikki Haley is really pissed off by having her legs cut off by Larry Kudlow. There have been quite a few articles that say she is in constant touch with Twit-for-brains and apparently clears things with Trump.

In other words, just another day in Trumppy World. If she was surprised by the chaos, she deserves the humiliation.

It is unlikely that Haley will quit in a display of dignity. That would probably put the kibosh on any near term political ambitions because the recent departures from the administration are pretty much universally shunned. Quitting would also piss off the Trump cultists which means low probability of primary success. Many are finding out there is a price to pay when you wade into the Trump swamp.

PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley on Tuesday fired back against a Trump administration official who said she was suffering from “momentary confusion” when she announced new sanctions against Russia were imminent, saying, “With all due respect, I don’t get confused.”

A striking intra-administration quarrel played out in public when National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow told reporters during a briefing in Florida that Haley “got ahead of the curve” when she said the U.S. would be slapping new sanctions on Russia on Monday in retaliation for the country’s support for Syria’s Assad government after its latest suspected chemical attack.

Kudlow said additional sanctions are under consideration but have yet to be implemented. Of Haley, he said, “There might have been some momentary confusion about that.”
