Never telegraph your military plans -DOTUS

He probably thinks Assad doesn't have the Internet.  Maybe Barron told him they don't have much Internet in those countries.

PAUL RYAN ISN'T RUNNING AGAIN, HAGAHA.

 

Iron Stache made his ass quit. Ryan didn't want to be crushed under a hydraulic press by the Stache if he lost.

He knows Trump would blame him for losing the House.

This has to be one of the weakest, most passive presidential statements of its kind.  Stop the arms race?  Pretty please?   Russia needs us!  Why such meanies?

He’s more unhinged than normal. 

I knew Syria would pay the price for Cohen getting raided. 

Syria was going to pay a price regardless and Trump is doing a poor job of wag-the-dog because he keeps talking about the Russia investigation.

It’s almost like Trump is trying to distract himself with Syria.

Stop the arms race. Question mark. Is he soliciting opinions? Does the write headlines for Fox News? what the actual fuck?

Trade war looming with China. Conventional war looming in Syria. Its time like these that I am thankful for the calm, measured leadership offered by the DOTUS.

ABC: Comey compares Trump to mob boss

Source: Axios

A source present at the taping says James Comey's interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, airing Sunday at 10 p.m. as a "20/20" special, is "going to shock the president and his team." 

The source said Comey's comments, in his first interview since being fired by President Trump last May, will generate headlines and "certainly add more meat to the charges swirling around Trump." 

In an ABC promo, Stephanopoulos says Comey compared Trump to a mob boss. 

According to the source: 
- The Comey interview left people in the room stunned — he told George things that he’s never said before. 
- Some described the experience as surreal. The question will be how to fit it all into a one-hour show. 
- Comey answered every question. 
- If anyone wonders if Comey will go there, he goes there.

I can’t accurately assess because I didn’t live through it but I can debate some of the historical facts.  Hitler was nowhere near the level of malfeasance Trump has displayed in 15 months.  Hitler never fired his SS director and he actually got re-elected. He also committed suicide with some dignity and didn’t go down kicking and screaming like a bitch at the very end.

Say what you will about Hitler, he did kill Hitler.

Say what you will about Trump, but his admin hasn’t been involved in anything nearly as criminal as Iran-Contra. 

How in the world can you assert that?  You have no idea.

Also, Iran Contra seems to me to be meh on the scandal scale. A bunch of dudes going nuts doing stuff they had no authority to do, but at least they all thought it was in America's interest.

 

 Also for the many many lawyers on here if you happen to have had Philip Bobbitt ( counselor to the president during the Iran-Contra affair ) back in the day  he likes to point out that the term Iran-Contra was a media created thing. There were about a dozen interrelated illegal goings-on by that group and the Iran side of the equation and the Contra side of the equation were no more tied to each other than anything else.  It’s like calling your day the Purchase Eggs Watch 60 Minutes Affair.

This is the main difference for me.  The entire Russian kerfuffle is in direct opposition to what is good for America and they knowingly did it.  Allegedly.

I don't think I've ever heard DOTUS say, "We're going to get to the bottom of Russian election meddling, and we''ll make sure it never happens again."

To be fair, that's only because it never happened.

Should provide a good boost for the book sales.

I mean, its not like they were splashing his book cover over the teaser trailer. Sorry pointing out that this is a promotional event irks you guys. 

And Trump's entire campaign and Presidency has been a promotional event.  A very shitty promotional event, but still...

Trump's entire presidency is a promotional event. 

EDIT: Good to know I'm on the same wave length as a poster named "Fudge Nuggets".

It is annoying that Comey will probably come out of this thing looking good, when he is probably more responsible than any other individual in America for Trump's election. It wasn't his intention, and I think he was trying to do what he saw as the closest-to-right thing in a bad situation, but he's going to publicly skate in the court of public opinion and he shouldn't.

This was pretty much my groan when I read the promo statements.  It looks like an inner book cover blurb.

Maybe we can get another interview with Judy Woodruff/Robert Costa/etc with a less book tour feel.

I'm more likely to buy Trump products and stay in Trump properties!

No disagreement at all.
