this is a nice little preview of what we can expect whenever trump finally leaves office: dog whistles to his supporters to incite violence

Congresswoman Maxine Waters, an extraordinarily low IQ person, has become, together with Nancy Pelosi, the Face of the Democrat Party. She has just called for harm to supporters, of which there are many, of the Make America Great Again movement. Be careful what you wish for Max!

Uh, I don't think he needs to leave office for that tbh.

Mid-Continent Nail of Poplar Bluff, Mo., the largest U.S. nail manufacturer, cut 60 jobs on June 15 and plans to lay off an additional 200 workers in a few days, citing plummeting sales following the imposition of Trump’s metals tariffs. The company said it may not survive past Labor Day if it doesn’t get relief from the tariffs.

“It’s not just us. There will be many, many companies that will pay a price for this,” said George Skarich, vice president of sales and marketing. “I’m disappointed in Trump. We didn’t see this coming.”

Mid-Continent’s orders for July are only 30 percent of what they were last year, and Skarich is afraid that many of his lost customers will never return.

Skarich voted for Trump, as did 79 percent of surrounding Butler County.

didn't see it coming eh

true, but it's going to be a fucking nightmare once he does. no matter how it happens, in court or in an election, he'll claim that it was rigged and that the successor's government is illegitimate. it's almost unthinkable that he WON'T do that.

it's almost unthinkable that he WON'T do that.

although many people are saying that Trump is the healthiest person ever elected president, and many other people are saying he is God's chosen instrument to do His will here in the USA, it should be noted that he plays much golf in Florida and there is always the chance he will be struck by lightning and God will call him home.

A is for (Aimless), Monday, 25 June 2018 17:41 (seven years ago)

If he is about to get struck by lightning, you'll notice his hair will first stand up and then quickly dart away to find shelter in a nearby burrow.

I would trade convictions for the lot of them for Erik Prince doing time.

Yeah, he is #1 on my wishlist.

amazing how CNN and MSNBC have spent the entire day whining about liberal incivility while thousands of MAGAheads threaten to burn down completely unaffiliated restaurants in other states

maybe Trump was right about the media after all

they shouldve given Sarah Sour a nice dessert in the face

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Monday, 25 June 2018 19:55 (seven years ago)

An attorney says a woman, who finally did get to talk to her 7-year-old daughter, says she couldn’t understand what the little girl was saying because she was crying so hard.
“The only thing the child (said) that she could hear: ‘Mom you don’t love me why did you leave me .’”

yes this is very sad but what about the time Huckasanders was kicked out of a restaurant

frogbs, Monday, 25 June 2018 19:55 (seven years ago)

btw a number of people have noted a number of consistent responses along these lines and have speculated that these kids are being told that their parents abandoned them

frogbs, Monday, 25 June 2018 20:08 (seven years ago)

It’s encouraging that Sarah Huckabee Sanders was judged not by the color of her skin but by the content of her character.

Is there any recommended reading on this?

Federal prosecutors, quite reasonably, view Michael Avenatti as a loose cannon and not as an ally. They don't like his antics. https://t.co/MngZKhnR6j

— ThisIsNotNormalHat (@Popehat) June 25, 2018

According to a fuller email exchange shared by Avenatti, Assistant US Attorney Nicolas Roos responded that the meeting was canceled because "we have learned that you leaked to the press the fact and location of our meeting with your client."

"Such leaks are inappropriate in and of themselves, and more importantly, call into question your commitment to maintaining the required confidentiality of the substance of our meeting with your client," Roos said. "Such confidentiality is critical to the diligence, fairness, and integrity of this, and indeed all, investigations conducted by this Office. For these reasons we have cancelled our meeting, and will reassess how to proceed."

avenatti kind of reminds me of alan grayson - a smart guy that you want to cheer for but he just won't shut the fuck up

Karl Malone, Monday, 25 June 2018 22:01 (seven years ago)

Did he get involved in the Southern border situation or was that just advertising.

Stevolende, Monday, 25 June 2018 22:17 (seven years ago)

ah right looks like he came out with some ideas down there taht haven't been very popular.
& apparently leaked the names of his clients to mass media which is being frowned on.
Maybe Avenatti is just too much of an egotist, hoped he might be some help.

We're through the looking glass - Trump is now tweeting about Lynch:

Hopefully lynch will have the sense not to respond

David Lynch takes paychecks from massive con artists like Transcendental Meditation. How do you all think the world works?

of course he's tweeting about him, Lynch is a celebrity filmmaker
