So the Trump/Republican tax cut really did decrease tax revenue which...well...is how tax cuts fucking work. They didn't increase revenue because...well...that's not how tax cuts work.

I genuinely laughed out loud. Thank you.

The pools says impeachment and removal, it's still the same polls, just averaged. Also that's absurd to think someone wouldn't vote their opinion because of what they believe the Senate would decide.

Its two different questions (and should be two different polls) since its two wholly independent processes.

Its absurd to think someone wouldn't.

There are a lot of people who think impeachment is worthless and a waste of time specifically because the senate would never remove. Hell you got people already telling you their vote before impeachment even happens.

They think the process in the Senate will be a shit show and actually help the president more than hurt.

I hear this moron refused to back the recognition of the Armenian genocide because of Erdogans thread to....recognize the Native American genocide...I often wonder if trump has ever at any point opened any sort of history book in this country.

This is how you know this piece of shit for a free ride in life, never opened a book

nobody ever supports the armenians, and that does piss me the fuck off.

we really need to move our army bases out of turkey and into armenia and tell turkey and azerbaijan to fuck off.

Trump is even managing to drive down numbers when it comes to support from members of the military. Historically they've been strong supporters of Republicans, but Trump started at a sub-50% approval and has only dipped since then, with his disapproval rating steadily increasing to almost 50%.

He's still slightly more popular than Obama ever was, but that's a low bar to pass given the built-in bias towards Republicans/conservatives in the military in recent decades.

Yeah, pretty sure it's because Trump has business in Turkey.

[DarkTZeratul]

Yeah, pretty sure it's because Trump has business in Turkey.

Could even just be his fetish for authoritarian dictators. He'll never say or do anything bad towards Putin, or Erdogan, or now apparently Kim Jong Un. It's all praise for them

Don't worry guys, Mike Huckabee isn't really a fucking moron, he's just pretending to be a fucking moron. For a joke, you know.

And since we're talking about Mike Huckabee, I'll again take this opportunity to remind everyone that Mick Huckabee desecrates graveyards with glee - https://twitter.com/govmikehuckabee/...585024?lang=en

Here is something people will not like but we are looking at having to change our entire tax code to fix the debt problem that has been growing since the Bush administration. For instance corporations will be forced to pay more and people will likely pay more with reductions to child credits and the like to fix the current fiscal mess that the US is in. I would say more spending cuts but in all honesty the US has one of the weaker social safety net systems but that being said things like defense spending will need to be reigned in along with less overall healthcare spending unless cost saving principles are allowed. Also life will get more expensive for the average person due to a removal of subsidies.

The biggest problem will be the lack of knobs to turn during the next financial meltdown which is why the FED is going on a QE but not calling it QE spree to hopefully prop up the market. I am also in the mindset that the Republicans plan to starve the beast will eventually work with the Democratic leadership.

And Jacob Wohl is back on Twitter on fake accounts, getting constant retweets from Trump himself.

Problem is, he's dumb enough to admit that he's running the fake accounts on Twitter on other social media platforms.

These are not their best. These are not their brightest. Some, I assume, actually have a brain.

Why is he still not in jail?

He hasn't actually violated any laws. Lying and being a general fucking idiot, and violating the ToS/circumventing bans on social media platforms, aren't illegal for the most part. Everything he's done is fucking dumb as sin, but none of it is against the law.

Is that one guy that keeps creating accounts here also Wohl by any chance?

It'd explain a lot...

Wait, didn't he make false police reports?

There was arrest warrant for him in California for financial crimes back in September.

Looking back it seems that he filed one when he was "investigating" Omar. Not sure what ended up happening with that, actually.

All that for plotting to kidnap and rendition a cleric back to Turkey and sundry other crimes? Truly the best justice money can buy.

Gates cooperated with Mueller.
This sentence reflects it.

That account has been suspended now. I reported it, a while back, and when you said that Huckabee tweet, I saw it was suspended now.

That was Michael Flynn. Who is yet to be sentenced. This is Rick Gates, Manafort's deputy, who also sunk Manafort and Stone.
