Trump Presidency

[RDU Irish]

The mental gymnastics required to equate paying your own children from your 100% owned company with VP cokehead kid raking in millions from foreign dealings are fascinating.

And why would anyone think that b/c a bunch of (no doubt) equally crooked republicans finding no fault in his actions somehow make it OK? Well my friend OJ says killing my wife is A-OK so what's the big deal?

The guy with dementia is memorizing softball questions and answers. I'd say you can't make this shit up, but, we live interesting times.

Everything is a fucking side show.

No, I mean to believe what the Republican commissioned report confirmed for the 3rd time now, which is that Joe Biden did nothing wrong.

I get why people on the right want to latch onto this, but how many times does it have to be investigated to show it's a nothing burger? First it was that a prosecutor was removed to help Hunter, then after that was thoroughly debunked it morphed into conjecture about $$ => Hunter == access and influence in the Obama administration. People are basically mad that Hunter got a bunch of money he "didn't earn," and want to extrapolate that to it affecting US policy and "selling access" neither of which is there any evidence of.

It's also incredibly ironic that we learn about the President of the United States taking millions of dollars from foreign sources; paying his children as "consultants"; enriching himself with taxpayer money at his businesses; etc. and I'm supposed to give a single shit about Hunter Biden when even the Republicans say Joe Biden is clean. Anyone who actually cares about conflicts of interest, foreign influence, ethics, etc. would not be supporting Trump.

Hunter Biden should release his taxes.

Imagine a world where we have a debate tonight between idk,... Kasich and Gabbard. It would almost be ‘normal’...

not sure I could handle Kasich talking ahout how his dad was a mailman for 2 hours.

I mean it could be worse,... case in point,...

and boring AF.

Kasich turned into a little biatch immediately after losing the primary. He was my favorite during the primary, but completely went sissy and didn't even attend the inauguration.

Chatter he might run again in 2020. Now, I'd vote for Gabbard over Kasich. She was one of the "present" during the impeachment side show. She's way to moderate for the Dems.

Will Cornpop be in the front row tonight?

Will Cornpop be in the front row tonight?

Rumor is, Cornpop will be there, but on the other end of the earpiece.
And Senator Coon's daughter was uninvited.
Joe's handlers don't want him too distracted.

So his dad was a mailman for two hours? That's a short career. Feet must have been killing him.

Biden's taxes released, he should get a better accoutant.

Main takeaway....he needs to cleanup his holdings. He's got a bunch of holdings with the same org, he's probably paying needless fees on those. On one of his flow-through corps, he withheld 185K in tax on a distribution of 196k - for those experienced in US tax planning, why would you push the tax burden down to the individual level? Seems like a basic failure of any intelligent tax planning. 15K on medical expenses for a 77 year old guy would be pretty good based on CAD standards.

So you're basically saying he secretly planned to pay more taxes than he needed too, just to look good.

lol, I don't know how to phrase it but his tax return is exactly how I would expect it.

Incompetent fool Donald Trump just emailed his entire donor list about how he "finished debating Biden" and won the debate... before the debate even started tonight:

Should make for fun when Comey is interviewed tomorrow.

But we all really assumed that Obama knew anyway. And we knew Brennan was up to his elbows in it. And just more confirmation that the FBI knew HRC was behind it, and still failed to tell the FISA courts.

I mean, we’ve known this for literally years. It won’t change people’s minds. It won’t change anything, sadly. They are so brainwashed.

I think The Don just wanted to be the first to get the news out. That's how fast he is. Biden is fast too. He had a commercial airing about Trumps tax returns less than hour after the NYT's report on Donald's taxes came out (talk about a coordinated effort with MSM lol).

But honestly, the fool here is not Trump, it's the idiot he has running his email. I'm sure someone will get fired if true, and then we'll see MSM reports that there's more unrest in Trump's inner circle.

Why would Dems give any fucks about the truth. Orange Man is evil dude.

Anyone that says the FBI or Intel is not political is dumb AF though.

I mean, it’s funny that we’ve known Hillary paid for this and now we know that she wanted to “stir up a controversy.” Also, now we know Obama knew, which means Biden knew lol. They literally used our IC, DOJ, and FBI to tarnish a political opponent and then used that invented tarnish to launch a three year smear campaign disguised as an investigation. The investigation showed no collusion, then there was a second Senate investigation that also came to the no collusion conclusion and yet people still think he collided with Russia.

Holy. Shit.

 

[IrishLax]

Unsurprising that you take this at face value -- https://www.politico.com/news/2020/09/29/john-ratcliffe-hillary-clinton-russia-423022

The extraordinary disclosure, released to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) earlier Tuesday, rankled Democrats, who said the move effectively put Russian disinformation into the public sphere in order to boost President Donald Trump’s unsubstantiated claims about the government’s efforts to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 election.

“It’s very disturbing to me that, 35 days before an election, the director of national intelligence would release unverified Russian rumint,” or rumor intelligence, Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman Mark Warner (D-Va.) told reporters.

And several former senior intelligence officials described Ratcliffe’s move as incendiary and irresponsible, given the manner in which he was publicly releasing unverified information that originated from a foreign adversary.

None of this info is verified, all of it is from Russia.

 

[IrishLax]

By the way, just so everyone is clear, Russia absolutely did act to help Trump in 2016. This is well-established fact, vetted by both parties.

The only thing that was bogus/unproven was "collusion."

In that letter from Ratcliffe, none of that is verified information. And it originates from Russia. That's why he uses "alleged" multiple times and acknowledges they "don't know the accuracy of this allegation or extent to which ... may reflect exaggeration or fabrication."

It's truly scandalous shit of epic proportion. Basically a conspiracy by the DNC, FBI, and IC to take down a candidate and later a sitting president. And it was known by the outgoing president. Doesn't matter though. Orange Man bad.

It's just another reason why I give very few if any fucks about the stupid shit Trump does. It is hilarious though that our IC is reporting about HRC's shenanigans at the same time Steele is going to the FBI.

Seriously though, do we really expect them to not love Russian disinfo?

Don’t forget about the president of the United States. Scandal free!

And it's been reported that China is "helping" Biden. We know Russia, China, Iran, and N Korea all meddle. And the US meddles with all of them too. This shouldn't shock anyone. And it didn't need to be a 3 year investigation.

Come on man. If we know this was reported in July (that's not up for debate), and we know HRC and the DNC funded Steele and fusion GPS, this is not a large leap. It's not even a baby step. How would whoever reported this know to say HRC? Just a good guess lol...

And about the timing complaints. Sort of like the timing of all the allegations against Trump in the first election? Can Dems really complain with a straight face.

 

[Irish YJ]

Well we know HRC and the FBI loved them some Russian disinfo. Given what we now know about the source and subsource, the IC and FBI knew it was all bunk before they applied for the FISAs.
