Not to worry. There are plenty of people ranting about Trump non stop. Many of those same people become mute on the topics I have ranted about. What you're rating about doesn't even register as news in the Trump orbit... You're not leveling the playing field, your trying to make what are considered Trump misdemeanors into Democratic felonies...That's all... Captain of Whataboutism and False Analogies. Enjoys his complicity with his toxic and malignant political party.

The Democrats have a loyal and devoted Amen chorus. I choose to point out their flaws. I do not profess to seek a level playing field. Rest assured, your message gets out just fine.

Why not just be consistent? Trump does what you're complaining about x20. It's an odd thing to try and turn the same flaws that you ignore to vote for your preferred candidate into 4 alarm fires for someone else.

No mystery why Trump and Netanyahu get along so well. They are cut from the same bolt of cloth and use the same tactics to maintain power. Benjamin Netanyahu has already shown that he is willing to go to extraordinary lengths to stay in power as Israel’s prime minister. The three corruption investigations against him are all linked to his surreptitious efforts to harness mainstream media coverage for his survival. On Israel’s election day in 2015, he urged his supporters to vote with a video in which, speaking from a faux war room, he warned that Arabs were “advancing on the polling places in droves,” as “leftist organizations bring them in buses.” That ugly appeal may well have been the key to his victory. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/02/22/netanyahus-faustian-pact-with-racist-right-is-about-saving-his-own-skin/?utm_term=.ad6048f6b0d4

Keep in mind, this is the same "Amen chorus" that had Al Franken resign while Acosta gets praise for his job performance from the sitting President.

“I concur,” Pompeo says after @jaketapper notes there haven’t been “concrete” North Korea steps on denuclearization. “There are many things he could do to demonstrate his commitment to” denuclearize. Last June, Trump tweeted: “There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea”
The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.”

"grownups seeking high office have a duty to rein in the inflammatory hyperbole or own up to their mistakes after the fact. The old “never mind” does not fly here."
Or despite knowing the facts they should lie in order to further their preferred narrative....

Or despite knowing the facts they should lie in order to further their preferred narrative.... Like the narrative that Smolett’s attack can be laid at the foot of Trump supporters. Once they could no longer blame Trumpnand his people for Smollett they became mute on his attack.

Once they could no longer blame Trumpnand his people for Smollett they became mute on his attack. Considering they never mentioned that part I'll just take that as you assigning bad motives, based on no evidence, to people you know nothing about. And you have no problem with Trump doing things like what the video shows above. It doesn't even register, so it makes it look completely disingenuous on top of that.

It appears that Trump took his marching orders from Netenyahu. One small difference, though. As ridiculous as Netenyahu's claims may have been, Israelis know that the threat to their security is constant and ongoing. Trump could claim the same here, but who other than his "cultists" would believe it?

Person who was born rich, then married rich, has opinions on people getting things for free...
Trying to figure out what did she do to earn her current position other than being he fathers child?
Here's what I don't understand about Republicans opposition to a livable wage. If people can't earn enough money working to support themselves they have to be supplemented by someone or something else. That usually means Government is going to pick up the bill.
Something has to give, right?

Legit confused as to what was the issue with Republicans and the Iran deal since it looks significantly better than the deal we were willing to sign with North Korea.

Overnight in Hanoi, President Trump: - Ended summit early without agmt - Appeared to walk back demand for full denuclearization - Questioned US intel assessment NK still expanding nuclear program - Accepted Kim’s denial of involvement in Otto Warmbier death
MBS's word on Khashoggi.
Putin's word on election meddling.
Kim's word on Otto Warmbier..

Trump ordered top-secret clearance for Kushner over White House Chief of Staff, White House Counsel, and CIA objections.
Trump told the NYT last month that he hadn’t intervened in Jared Kushner’s security clearance process. In fact, he had ordered the clearance granted, NYT reports today, over the vociferous objections of his advisors—several of whom wrote memos about it.
The default position is to lie. That's unfortunate.

It was associated with President Obama. That's all that mattered to the current President and his lackeys all fell in line.

The night plane full of cash was a particularly odious component and an awful look.

The night plane full of cash was a particularly odious component and an awful look. Their money. Like 90% of Trump’s pitch is bragging about how flush with cash they’ll be if they sign the deal.
