President Trump: Making America Great Again...

[myboynoah]

Not trying to do the armchair psychology thing here, but Trump’s latest WSJ interview is, um, not exactly inspiring me with confidence about his mental abilities:

Two words: Stable Genius.

Nice Trump campaign poster. His base I'm sure loves this stuff.

Will you explain to Ted, it's not that Trump said "shit", it's that he used that to describe countries where non-white people come from, and save him from his weird OCD thing?

[Uncle Ted]

Great... President Vicente Fox has a new swear word to use thanks to Drumpf.

Here's what the Libertarian Party thinks about Trump's immigration ideas.

https://www.lp.org/dhs-announces-pla...born-children/

“The deportation of hundreds of thousands of Salvadorans — as well as Sudanese, Nicaraguans, Haitians, and Hondurans — is objectionable on multiple levels,” said Libertarian National Committee Chair and Phoenix, Ariz., mayoral candidate Nicholas Sarwark. “Salvadorans are exceptionally well-integrated into American society, with 85 percent speaking some English and 48 percent speaking English very well or exclusively. Their labor force participation rate is 88 percent compared to the U.S. average of 63 percent, and 45,000 Salvadoran TPS holders have mortgages. They are not part of the problem of welfare dependency. They are part of the solution. People who are obviously contributing members of society should be welcomed with open arms.

The U.S. economy suffered not at all from our acceptance of the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. Immigrants made this country great in the first place, and they continue to do so today. We need to move in the direction of more open, legal immigration, not in the direction of militarized borders fit only for a police state.

“The entire debate about immigration results from a misapplied concept of property rights,” said Sarwark. “When we refer to ‘my car, my clothes, or my toothpaste,’ few would argue that the word ‘my’ does not imply a property right. But we also use the word ‘my’ in the context of ‘my street, my neighborhood, and my country.’ We obviously don’t have a property right in the entire country, but opponents of immigration use arguments that imply we all do have a collective right to our country — and, therefore, a right to exclude foreigners. We don’t. We each have an individual moral right to hire, do business with, or sell a house to any willing person from anywhere. We also have the moral obligation not to interfere with our neighbor’s right to do or not do the same.”

The issue of immigration has been obscured by layers of cynical campaign rhetoric, but it comes down to whether individual liberty applies only to native-born Americans or to everyone. If freedom works for us — and it does — what possible moral reason do we have to say it applies to people born in San Diego, but not to those born inches away in Tijuana?

[Uncle Ted]

Like clockwork.

I'll let the Presidente handle this one...

It's all fake news, Frank... Drumpf says so:

Are you sure you want to go down that path?

I already went down that path. If you don't look at non existent dental care, packs of feral dogs roaming the streets and lack of sanitation that the industrialized world worked out over 100 years ago, I suppose one would disagree with the shithole characterization. Also, I'm not saying this about Singapore, Japan or even places like Costa Rica. I am saying it about Brazil which apparently doesn't know how to chlorinate a pool and allows rent a cops at gas stations to hold up Olympic Athletes at gun point and then turns it into an international incident when the same athletes, who were just robbed, try to get out of the country.

It's also the exact thing that people in New York and LA have been saying about "flyover country" for years now. Both New Yorkers and Trump are not entirely incorrect on the characterization. Although I think New Yorkers have a far more expansive view of what a shithole is, because while New York in the summer smells like its reality - thousands of hobos.using the steeets and subway stations as their personal toilets - Salt Lake City to them is the shithole.

While taking it as a given that it's completely inappropriate for a President to say this about foreign countries, particularly one like Haiti that stood with his decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem, the far worse aspect of what he said was the inference that people from those countries have a taint to them. In particular, knowing the Indian kids at my high school and how highly they achieved in school and in the rest of their lives, I have absolutely no clue why anyone would want to keep them out.

Don't judge Ted too harshly. He's really not defending Trump's comments. Remember, his is a higher calling. He's working tirelessly to show us simpletons that no one ever has the moral high ground in the libertarian world.

If Uncle Ted is implying that Trump's comment was in the same moral universe of what Obama said, then Uncle Ted has no credibility whatsoever in terms of moral high ground.

Proving that most Republican Trump apologists are going to totally miss the point. It's not that he said something derogatory about other countries that have problems.

It's that he is saying we don't want their people to come here LEGALLY or otherwise. Take them out! And he did it in the most vulgar, degrading way completely beneath the dignity of the office. He's saying we shouldn't allow immigrants from these countries because they must also be trash. Not to mention the fact that cutting legal immigration by half and implementing trade policies that would isolate the US economically from the global market is a great recipe for deep recession.

That is what is the problem is.

Having the GOP abandon their morals to support this absolute morally bankrupt president is what makes me hope the GOP burns in hell in November 2018.

[BlueK]

Then he should cutting and pasting stuff from Libertarian sources like I did instead of digging up political porn from shady alt-right corners of the interwebs.

[Northwestcoug]

Don't you see?!? He is proving his own point. There is no moral high ground!

It seems some un-named democratic staffer's word against the POTUS' word. Of course, I assume there was more than just two people in the room.

I am not sure what is up with democrats disclosing what is said (or supposedly said) behind closed doors these days... but it seems it has been happening a lot these days. I guess they all have "bad colds" that is slowing down their mental facilities.

Feinstein blames 'bad cold' for handling of Fusion GPS transcript

Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein seemed to blame a “bad cold” for the controversial way she handled the release of an interview transcript for the co-founder of the firm behind the anti-Trump dossier.


The California senator and top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee drew the ire of committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, earlier this week for publishing the transcript without consulting him.


She told an NBC News reporter that she regrets not speaking to Grassley beforehand, citing her cold as a possible factor.


"The one regret I have is that I should have spoke with Senator Grassley before. And I don't make an excuse but I've had a bad cold and maybe that slowed down my mental facilities a little bit,” she said, according to a tweet from a fellow NBC producer.

I don't think you're remembering this incident quite the way it actually happened.

Jeff Flake just said two different people in the room, one of them a Republican, told him what Trump said before the WP article came out. Do you believe him?
