Trump "Foundation" shuttered.

Flynn finding out that if you taunt a judge, the judge will not respond well. His sentencing was delayed.

Ridiculous assertion by Flynn's lawyers that a former Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, who is the highest-ranking intelligence officer in the military, was unaware that lying to the FBI was a crime. Flynn ate those words in court.

Before anyone wraps Flynn in the flag, let's remember that the judge has seen a lot more information than we have. When a judge asks if someone can be charged with treason and other crimes, something really bad has happened.

Ask for links, as I post in haste.

Here's a link about the judge flipping out. Apologies for me being sloppy in my haste.

Disgusted federal judge upends Michael Flynn?s sentencing hearing

I know this is the Trump thread, but the judge wigging out is worth a read.
 
Trump has actually done a couple things I support recently...one such thing being the First Step criminal justice reform bill, which doesn't go far enough IMO but at least it's a piece of legislation that recognizes a major problem within the United States (mass incarceration) & makes a modest attempt to reform the federal system.

Withdrawing from Syria etc. seems like the right decision made for the wrong reason. I just feel sorry for the Kurdish people...the YPG sacrificed 1000 martyrs against ISIS, pretty much one of the only groups on the ground who could be reliably counted on to put in work against those assholes, and this is how the USA repays them
 
^ Hes got his good points and his bad point but the media really have it out for him

Have you watched any video of him "debating"? The guy is embarrassing to watch. Yeah he can be funny. But good at debate? Could you link to some video of him "owning" anyone in debate?
 
Who knew in 2005 that this semi-staged performance of Leonard Bernstein's operetta Candide by the New York Philharmonic would be eerily prescient? I'm sure Trump's far-right troglodyte base would relish a new inquisition that puts homosexuals and abortion providers to death.

Actually Mitch McConnell was largely responsible for hemp legalization via the Farm Bill (he's the Senate Majority Leader).

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) backed the hemp provision vociferously, saying that a pilot program in his own home state has "become a booming success."

"Its uses range from food and pharmaceuticals to home insulation and automotive parts," he said in a statement. "Enthusiastic farmers quickly applied to plant the crop in their fields. Entrepreneurs opened businesses selling hemp-based products. And consumers got to enjoy a whole new set of goods featuring American-made hemp."

Arguing how good a debater someone in politics is is a waste of time. Especially for presidents. And especially especially when it's Democrat v republican. Each side of politics always perceives their side as the winner.

Honestly I couldn't give a shit how good a debater trump actually is, he's the worst president in my life time. He's made us an international laughing stock.
 
yes, yes he did.

what if i argued that JessFR is a much better debater than the current president of the united states of america...?
