The contrast with the articulacy of Barack Obama really is striking, though.

It is. Then again the contrast between my guitar playing and that of {insert name of favourite guitar player here} is similarly striking. IMO Obama is and was an excellent orator by any standard - it seems to be something that successful Democratic Party presidential candidates in my lifetime share.

Compare President Trump to George W Bush when he was talking off the cuff and the difference isn't too great.

I've seen it suggested that Trump was coked up. Sniff sniff.

I know it has, but is there any reliable evidence of President Trump using cocaine ? IMO throwing around unfounded allegations, whether it's of drug use or of mental incapacity, isn't that helpful because it gives his supporters things that they can easily counter and then claim #FakeNews.

Focusing on those things where there is ample evidence, his lying, his flip-flopping, his legal settlements and so on is IMO a better option.

And lots of other people helping. No we’ve broken a lot of records. We’ve broken virtually every record. Because you know, look I only need this space. They need much more room. For basketball, for hockey and all of the sports, they need a lot of room. We don’t need it. We have people in that space. So we break all of these records. Really we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.”

If Trump has no organ, then Stormy Daniels must be lying, right?

Trump was active in the New York party scene in the '80s. Rich guy with mob connections? Some experience with coke wouldn't be a surprise. But it's not likely that there would be pictures or documents.

He did have a working relationship with a coke dealer.

Looks like Trump is discharging immigrant service members, reneging on a core policy of this country.

Will this do it? Will the MAGA morons justify it, or actually come out against it?

:dl:

yea, nah.
Anyway I'm on my phone so I can't link, but a Google search turns up plenty of sources.

Bit of a red herring. They were rejected after failing background checks. It's nothing new or unusual.

Three have been assassinated. Of the two cases, I know which I would consider the bigger insult.

I can think of at least 3 better responses:

- What do you mean its insulting? Do you mean it should be BIGGER?

- Oh good... see, we were worried that idiots like you, Trump, and Trump supporters wouldn't be able to understand. But if you're smart enough to see its an insult maybe Trump will too.

- This is not an insult. It is symbolic of the warmth and safety we feel knowing that Trump is watching over us, caring for us people of the world like we are all children in his merciful arms.
 
The new EPA chief is a long-time energy lobbyist.
Wheeler spent a decade lobbying for just the sort of companies the agency regulates, and before that he worked for Sen. James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.), who rejects climate change. Drawing on more than a quarter-century in Washington, Wheeler is expected to pick up where the departing Pruitt left off — only without the controversy that constantly plagued him.
