    Because he thinks anything against god emperor Trump is pointless. Little does he know that this is just another hypocritical thing Trump complained about but then did himself and worse.

    And? Is someone holding a gun to your head forcing you in these threads when you don't want to read them?

    The worst thing about this isn't the multiple excursions to Mar-A-Lago no no that wouldn't be so bad. The problem is that we are paying the Orange Cheetos-in-Chief for him to go on weekend escapes to Florida. Yes Mar-A-Lago is Trump's resort which means those millions of dollars it costs to make these trips a sizeable portion is going directly for Trump because we have too pay to rent out rooms and floors to protect his ass. Which means Trump is forcing the American taxpayers to pay him to protect him. Add on that we pay him to protect his escort wife and autistic son in their gaudy gilded tower because just like Mar-A-Lago we have to pay Trump to rent out rooms and floors to protect them in NYC. So in the end how is not a crime that Trump is basically extorting money from the American people by forcing us to pay at his own places to protect them.

    I know hypocrisy from the new regime isn't anything notable, but Jesus he's really ramping it up with the expenses after all his rhetoric about Obama isn't he.

    Yea, no reason anyone should be upset at him completely and totally blowing costs out of the water with his absurd trips.

    They also doubled the membership to Mar a Largo to $200k and is advertised as Trump's W.H. south. Get to brush elbows with the POTUS.

    Another thread another news. But the employment rate statement by Spicer was just incredible.

    I thought they were laughing about the "it was fake before but real now" comment.

    They were, and it should have had career consequences for them. Chuckling along as the Press Secretary tells you that the President only believes facts in so far as they're convenient for him is a dereliction of duty.

    I still don't get it, but to each their own I guess.

    I think they are saying that since the reporter wasn't frozen at complete shock and horror over Spicer and the President's beliefs he should be fired. I will partly believe agree with that but I believe the reporter just has a natural defense mechanism of laughing at something so horrifying.

    I was wondering this. I really hope it was the Trumpster reporters in that room that were the one laughing. You know not the MSM, libbbbbbberal media, Fake News, etc.

    Thats what I was thinking. I would probably have laughed much louder, maybe even started rolling on the floor.

    I honestly see things like this as partisan bullshit that both sides either ignore, get angry, or rationalize depending on what side of the isle you are on.
    well since nothings changed and the military is getting another 60 billion.....

    i don't expect that 151 billion in waste diapering anytime soon

    that's simple math
    Its Orlong. You can state that what bothers you most is that Trump explicitly stated before the election that if we won't have time to go golfing if elected, but now he's going every weekend; and Orlong will find some way to deflect or equivocate or spin a bullshit tangent rather than concede the demonstrable fact that yeah, Trump lied about going golfing if he became president. Orlong is incapable of giving the slightest ground or accepting that even the most marginal of criticisms of Trump might have the tiniest bit of merit. But good luck.

    And that's nothing new from Trumpers. We expect it now.
    You know you lose all credibility as soon as you use the word "Trumpers", right? At least - and as much as I disagree with Lazer - he has the honesty to call me for what I genuinely wished for. I can't even say that for you.

    For the religion part, it's how both sides want to suppress free speech on the side they disagree.

    On the private information part, please understand that I meant how people readily apologize for the DNC lack of transparency and willful ignorance toward their own leaks. My point was related to what happened yesterday, not the whole tax return debacle.

    On the "fact" section, I also openly supported the leak of the document. It was, after all, going within the government. However, the problem comes when these reports become "confirmed by several high-ranked IC senior members", which somehow gives it more credibility than it deserves. And I know you probably say this with good intents, but the claim that nobody believed the leaked document was "true" is simply untrue. Have you even just taken a look at these forums?

    So let me be clear once more: I don't disagree with your rationale. In fact, I mostly agree. My problem comes from the cognitive dissonance of several claims: How can Trump still be called sexist after Devos, Ivanka role in the government? How can he still be called racist after the roles he's willfully handed toward minorities? And it's my point, really. You want to argue that Devos is utterly unqualified? Be my guest! I even agree with you! You want to say that Trump's racist? No. You've lost all credibility.

    If we cannot call an apple "apple" and instead call it a "malformed orange-tinted pear", I don't see how a line of discussion can be made. Likewise, the same applies to people who think Trump's an envoy of god or something. It's about honesty, and discussing things as they are.

    Stop twisting reality, and you'll have a beautiful line of discussion.
