US Politics, March 2018: Why do people leave the White House for good?

Ah, so not for money, to void a contract.

Is anyone selling “Free Stormy” shirts yet?

BTW you really should dig into that Emirates advisor story I linked a few posts back. Dude's name first came up last week and now it's a little more clear as to what's going on.

dlh otm

tho tbh these threads have surpassed Morbs in handing out Wu-like alts for US politicians

Washington (CNN)Republicans in Utah are working their way toward naming a highway after President Donald Trump in thanks of his decision to dramatically scale down national monuments in the state.

State Democrats, however, have another idea: naming a rampway after Stormy Daniels, the porn star who has alleged a decade-old sexual encounter with the President (Trump's personal attorney has denied the affair).

On Monday, a bill to rename Utah National Parks Highway to "Donald J. Trump Utah National Parks Highway" cleared a House committee 9-2.

The measure, introduced by GOP Rep. Mike Noel, is a nod to the President's scaling back of Bears Ears National Monument by about 85% and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument to almost half its size. The shrinking of lands declared a national monument makes it easier to mine for coal and drill for oil.

In February, Noel faced a formal ethics complaint for failing to disclose land holdings near the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument worth $1.2 million, the Salt Lake Tribune reported.

If the bill reaches the state Senate, Democratic Sen. Jim Dabakis told the Salt Lake Tribune he would propose an amendment to name a frontage road that runs alongside the National Parks Highway "Stormy Daniels rampway." Daniels is the adult film star who received $130,000 from Trump's personal lawyer after she claimed she had an affair with Trump.

Democrats, however, make up less than 20% of the Senate body, suggesting the amendment is a long shot.

dumb

Dumb News!

So if Trump does nothing, Stormy "wins," the NDA is voided, and she can sell her story. If Trump fights back, that means acknowledged the veracity of the NDA, which blows his cover. Right?

I think it's been conclusively proved that dalliances with porn stars will never take Trump down so it's neither here nor there really

Unless it all finally gets to Melania and she gets the hell out, but that's not going to happen either

Isn't there an Eddie Murphy bit about Lincoln forgetting to sign the Emancipation Proclamation?

xpost -- Think the world's worst comedian dying on stage -- then multiply that by a thousand.

then divide by 20, and thats about how cringeworthy that was

...just to be clear, that means we're talking 50 times worst than the world's worst comedian dying on stage

worse

yes, i feel like that's the appropriate magnitude

i appreciate a really precise estimate with these things

so now there are trump dick pics

every picture of the president is a dick pic

a black mirror version of black mirror would have a president fucking a pig on live television and no one in the audience even really caring about it that much

hes just fucking it like it is

Yes, Black Mirror now seems quaint and a little naïve. Excuse me while I go die real quick.

Re: that crazy UAE/Trump/Nader/Prince stuff, ties into this from a while ago:

The NYT version of the Seychelles meeting adds new significance to this exchange during Erik Prince's congressional testimony.

He had insisted news accounts of the meeting were "fabricated" -- until he seemed to slip and acknowledge the existence of a transcript. pic.twitter.com/XVr3jhDhF8

lol what a dumbshit

I hate it when I lie ahead of myself

idk maybe he's assuming there was 'FISA abuse' going on and texts were intercepted?

The texts that didn’t exist....

i can't even keep track of who these weird dumbass grifters are anymore

Prince is a big fish.

Is this the Blackwater guy whose sister is Betsy Devos?

OK I knew about Prince and what a shitstain he is but I did NOT know that, somehow

oh that's the best part of this whole disgusting mess

"best"

This reminds me of Bill Clinton’s “rich, soft wanting” only funnier. https://t.co/01Dkqz8vNN

xp Prince is also the guy who met w/ Trump last year to propose a private intelligence agency at the service of the president

future Senator Erik Prince is going to awesome

Finally read the linked nyt piece on that Nader character and im tryna figure out his planning to visit mara lago in january and not envisioning an absolute swarm of fbi/mueller bees awaiting his deplaning.

cant tell if mara lago is a good drag name or not

I can't figure out why he would fly to Washington to go to Mar-A-Lago.

Prince deserves to die in a lake of fire, don't get me wrong, but that transcript of conversation doesn't seem that damning to me? He could easily have been saying "What hypothetical official is supposedly reading this hypothetical transcript?"
