The Trump Presidency

uh, 538 hit the polls almost perfect


what polls don't do is go look at individual states and put that to how the electoral college works

That's right. 538 is a good reference. And the thing about 538 is that they will figure out what they did wrong and make corrections. Remember that 538 going into Trump's win was trying hard to defend their stance that Hillary had only a 70% chance to win. Most other leftist sites were saying that Hillary had a 98% chance to win.

Trump dictated son’s misleading statement on meeting with Russian lawyer

On the sidelines of the Group of 20 summit in Germany this month, President Trump’s advisers discussed how to respond to a new revelation that Trump’s oldest son had met with a Russian lawyer during the 2016 campaign — a disclosure the advisers knew carried political and potentially legal peril.

The strategy, the advisers agreed, should be for Donald Trump Jr. to release a statement to get ahead of the story. They wanted to be truthful, so their account couldn’t be repudiated later if the full details emerged.

But within hours, at the president’s direction, the plan changed.

Flying home from Germany on July 8 aboard Air Force One, Trump personally dictated a statement in which Trump Jr. said he and the Russian lawyer had “primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children” when they met in June 2016, according to multiple people with knowledge of the deliberations. The statement, issued to the New York Times as it prepared a story, emphasized that the subject of the meeting was “not a campaign issue at the time.”

The claims were later shown to be misleading.

i'm sure they were lying cause there is nothing at all to hide

Trump: "We'll handle North Korea. We're gonna be able to handle them. It will be handled. We handle everything. Thank you very much."


That's exactly what you would expect from an idiot who doesn't know what he's doing but also doesn't know that he doesn't know.

Has it been revealed for sure who the genius was who thought hiring Scaramucci was a good idea? That's the person who should be fired.

Any coverage yet about Debbie Wasserman Schultz on MSM (outside of Fox)?

Brexit has been a disaster. Globalists were right.

“We primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children that was active and popular with American families years ago and was since ended by the Russian government, but it was not a campaign issue at the time and there was no follow up,” the statement read.
Trump Jr. went on to say, “I was asked to attend the meeting by an acquaintance, but was not told the name of the person I would be meeting with beforehand.”

Literally every word of this was a lie, by Don Jr's own admission, the next day.

"The president’s legal team planned to cast the June 2016 meeting as a potential setup by Democratic operatives hoping to entrap Trump Jr. and, by extension, the presumptive Republican nominee, according to people familiar with discussions."

Filthy. Every word out of all of their mouths is a lie. Shameful.

Chaitt article on Trump's attempt to erase all things Obama - his explanation as to why it isn't working




For eight years, Republicans drove themselves into a fever-pitch hysteria against the Affordable Care Act without bothering to learn how the law worked. Working from the premise that Obamacare was a uniquely ill-designed law — death panels! train wrecks! — they easily persuaded themselves and much of the country that Republicans could write something vastly better.

Went from "Trump had nothing to do with it" to "Trump had input". Fully expect next statement to be "Trump was in the meeting"

Plaintiff and his Lawyer say the peeps at Fox News told him that the President reviewed the story and wanted to publish it.

Those are some damning allegations.

As damning as an analyst on CNN giving a candidate the questions before a debate?

[thethe]

So why did this IT consultant and his associates make 4M over a short period of time? Why was he still on the payroll after being under investigation.

This is going to become a big story at some point soon.

1 in 5 US Muslims say it can be justified to murder civilians.

How comforting.
