Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Xeones]

That's not how American law works.if he proved it, he would have charged. He didnt have enough for a simple arraignments. Was a complete exoneration legally, which is the only standard that matters.

THAT isn't how American law works. To be charged with something it has to actually be a crime on the books.

Collusion isn't a crime, it's a term to describe a very alarming set of interactions between a hostile foreign entity and a presidential campaign in this case. Conspiracy is a crime and that would require being able to actually investigate everything, like the house is attempting to do, in order to find intent.

I wonder what percentage first generation migrants make up of an average infantry division In the Army/Marines

Good question. Probably not THAT many, but then again, as far as I know - manpower is an issue (or, more precisely, not enough people want to serve, so there are shortages), so basically everyone is important.

Donald Trump invites Kim Jong-un to US after entering North Korea

I look forward to hearing about the entire administration bowing before Kim.

I just need the Shalcker back in this thread saying that this does not matter and that USA has not given legitimacy to the NK'

NK doesn't need US legitimacy because Kim is perfectly legitimate NK leader.

Really, all "legitimacy" you talk about is "Western willingness to talk to them". And i don't exactly see why more talking is bad.

[cubby]

Because the US constitution can be changed on a whim. Oh wait it requires two thirds majorities in both chambers of Congress.

It actually requires much more than that.

My concern is Trump's constant "jokes" about being a lifetime president or getting rid of journalists. Whether you like it or not, that is the kind of talk that starts dictatorships. Remind me again who Trump's new buddy is?

Western? Or just USA's? And more precisely, just the Trump admin, no the whole apparatus. And yeah, talking to a dictator is problem. West really did not talk to him or invited him anywhere until now, but put him under sanctions. But go on, tell us that there is no difference.
P.S.
Funny how you arrived immediately.

Problem how exactly? What exactly becomes worse if it happens?

Because it shows weakness and gives every little shithead dictator leverage to gain concessions. He just needs to promise to be "good". It did not work until Trump.

What leverage do you provide by talking to them?

Clinton talked to NK and even got a deal to stop their efforts in exchange for building them nuclear power reactors (deal that Bush later trashed; not that Clinton himself necessarily aimed to honor it though).

That happened before NK actually had working nukes and working ballistic missiles.

NK gained leverage by actually having them now (and sanctions, that were there all along, not stopping them one bit).

He still wants to look like a strong-man dictator.

Unfortunately we have known this for a while. We have Trumpsters saying that this is okay and they have no problem with all of this.

Trump tells pool in Oval Office there will be tanks at July 4 celebration, as we reported this morning. "And we're gonna have some tanks stationed outside... So we have to put them in certain areas but we have the brand new Sherman tanks and we have the brand new Abram tanks."

This idiot said; 'Sherman tanks'. A tank last produced in the 1950's and more famously the main battle tank of the US Army in WWII.

This guy is the biggest moron or I hate to go with reckless speculation but dementia has set in.

I never try to go reckless speculation but again he is a moron or dementia is there.

Probably because those were the names he remembered from the war movies he's seen. We all know he doesn't read or pay attention to anything during briefings.

The draft dodger in chief wants to play big military man, and now he wants toys too. Atleast he didn't start talking about Panzers.

"Our Sherman tanks are the best in the world. I once saw one take a hit to the side from a Tiger tank, it was a big explosion. Huge explosion. You wouldn't believe. But the tank was fine, because it was made in the US! And then Donald Southerland got out and started barking like a dog, because he's a hippy liberal."

"Sir, are you talking about the fictional movie, Kelly's Heroes?"

"Yes, I'm talking about the documentary. It was in my briefing the other week. Very interesting."

Trump doesn't understand the country he is president of. Surprising? No. The King of Ignorance reigns on.

Look at that ridiculous clown face. That's a president of a country. That's my comment on this.

Maybe we can get the RV from Stripes in the parade.
