To be honest after reading that I think it really is a distraction, from Trump holding talks with Kim Jong-un. Is it a coincidence that it's timed for the day Trump starts those talks? Nothing big looks like it can even be traced back to him. The wikileaks part looks especially weak : Stone got off the phone with Assange and said the emails would be dumped in a couple of days. Trump said something like "wouldn't that be great." How's that going to damage him?

 

Would be cool if something big turned up but I don't think this is it. Saying that though even if he got impeached we'd have Pence as president, the thought of that is almost equally fucked up because he seems like a proper war hawk.

 

At least we're past halfway in the cunts presidency, let's just hope he doesn't get a second term.

Are you trying to show that it was covered? I didn't say it wouldn't be if so, it was put further down in the headlines though as the Cohen story dominated.

 

Glad I didn't watch any of it too, would've probably just agreed with this :

 

In hours of repetitious questioning by the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, you were grateful for any sliver of insight. For although there were grumbles from some on the committee that the hearing was political theater, the hallmarks of good agitprop were few and far between. Some of the theatrics were so transparent and tasteless as to be appalling, and indicative, too, of how gullible some in Washington imagine the rest of us to be.

Was gonna edit but was too late : I regularly check Cortez and Tlaib on twitter so will watch what they had to say if I find footage of both linked (can see Cortez and about to watch, not sure about Tlaib yet.)

Please don't use the 2nd part pal - I made that up.

 

He is a boss though - elder statesman speaking with no notes directly to the heart of the matter. The rest of it was a bit of shenanigans imo

 

Hahah I know you added that, was just messing. Just watched it too, he was awesome.

I figured he'd give away everything the North Koreans wanted and spin it as a win back home, push his case for that Nobel Peace Prize in the process. 

 

To me he actually looks stronger by walking away. 

He's the Davis Beckham of politics.

 

Where's my fucking knighthood

From Guardian, Trump at CPAC :

 

Quote

He then took aim at a Democratic proposal to tackle climate change by adopting a sweeping “Green New Deal”, attacked by Republicans as expensive and bound to curtail cars and planes. He said sarcastically: “I think the new green deal, or whatever the hell they call it. The Green New Deal, right? I encourage it. I think it’s really something that they should promote.”

To laughter, Trump continued, mockingly: “No planes. No energy. When the wind stops blowing, that’s the end of your electric. ‘Let’s hurry up. Darling, darling, is the wind blowing today? I’d like to watch television, darling.’”

 The crowd erupted in cheers and applause.

 

 

Bunch of caveman cunts. How fucking stupid would you have to be to believe what he says there? Maybe in a similar way to him hoping Dems promote it, we should hope he keeps attacking it. It could be another thing that makes sure he leaves office after his first term.

I find this quite depressing, to be honest. As it is over here, it’s all about convincing people to look down, and not up.

Me too and I see little chance it will change. Climate change will make it worse as richer countries will seek to slam the door on mass migration.

This is one of the only things giving me any sense of hope right now. I don't care what his supposed chances are or how many are going to be trying to take him down. I'm just going to believe he can do it and then not take part in bombing countries or destroying them with sanctions if he's elected.
