Cont: The Trump Presidency 11: Insert something funny

[autumn1971]

Maybe Trump will fire him.

I am sure that it will be revealed at some point that trump believed that he could, and made serious inquiries about doing so.

What those numbers really prove is that if you build a wall, some people will still find a way over or under it, but most will simply go around it.

The French learned that in May 1940!

 

[phiwum]

How could there be any doubt that a wall across our southern border would protect us from the hordes of yellow-jacketed French terrorists trying to get into the U.S.?

Also, I have a really nifty charm for keeping elephants away. As near as I can tell it has worked great.

He's speaking about a shooting at a Christmas market, not the yellow jacket riots.

The incoming NY AG is planning to launch investigations into Trump and his family including, but not necessarily limited to, the Trump Tower meeting, his real estate holdings, government subsidies he's received, potential violations of the emoluments clause, and the continuing investigation into the Trump Foundation

Leave our seaport out of this.

Tuscon is the border patrol sector, not where the border actually is. Not sure Trump knows that.

I figured; like I said, I suppose the actual fence is at/near Nogales (which I haven’t been to in ages). It sounds funny, though.

Why do you think he can distinguish between them?

The Democrats and President Obama gave Iran 150 Billion Dollars and got nothing, but they can’t give 5 Billion Dollars for National Security and a Wall?

Just in case someone is fooled:

No. We unfroze assets and removed sanctions worth roughly $150 billion. We didn't give them 150 billion dollars. And actually the figure was more like $56 billion according to the US Treasury Dept.

"New York Attorney Gen.-elect Letitia James says she plans to launch sweeping investigations into President Donald Trump, his family and "anyone" in his circle who may have violated the law"​

Ooh, that means Paul Manafort will almost certainly be a target, and Stubby McBonespurs will not have any power to pardon him.

And more than that, they didn't "get nothing"... they got Iran to reduce their stockpiles of enriched uranium (making production of weapons difficult if not impossible), and opened up their nuclear program to inspections.

And remember, the Trump administration thinks that inspections will continue after breaking the deal.

Also, Pence sat there and let Trump fall into the abyss without a single comment. He may as well have pushed Trump for all the "help" he provided. Clearly he was trying to show how "presidential" he was in comparison to the gibbering orange ape to his left. Expect some backroom maneuvering now...

If you were a hostage negotiator tasked with bringing back a kidnapped Mike Pence, you would not accept that as a proof-of-life video.

What an idiot.

I'm so glad NY AG has solved all the murders so they can put all this effort into this

I agree, and yet I stand by my statement that he was the winner fo the exchange.

Two years from now, Pence is more likely to be president than anyone else in that room.

Now the fun starts.

Michael Cohen Sentenced to 36 Months in Prison.

"Federal prosecutors, having secured a sentence for Cohen, will now have to decide how to handle the fact that Cohen implicated the president in a felony of his own."

The NY AG has very little direct involvement with local murders in New York state. Here is information on the AG job description: https://ag.ny.gov/legal-recruitment/overview-functions-office-attorney-general

”Sleeper cell.”

The ones who chanted "We want Trump"?

Pence had the look of a 12 year old kid who is hanging out at his friend's house and his friend's parents get into an argument in front of him.

He reminded me of Bernie.
