Thinkly talking. Something beyond all of our thinkly skills. I know I can’t keep up with this smartest person in the world, as he modestly points out to we who are too dim to understand.
 

Look, having nuclear my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, okay, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, okay, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world it’s true! but when you’re a conservative Republican they try oh, do they do a number that’s why I always start off: [i]Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune [/i] you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right who would have thought?), but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners now it used to be three, now it’s four but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

Looks like the $h1+ stirrer in chief is going to move the embassy and recognize Jerusalem as the capital. Surely no bad will come from that

[julie.young_645]

Do you [i]really[/i] want U.S. policy to be dictated by terrorists? I hope not.  
 
The recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capitol (which it has been since 1948) is indeed a slap in the face of the “palestinians” (a fake construct designed to be pawns of the Arab States)…because it gets in the way of the fantasy of wiping Israel off the map. And make no mistake, [i]that[/i] is their goal. 
 
Once the “palestinians” get past their tantrums, and realize they actually have to deal with an Israel they can’t dream into non-existence, they might actually decide it’s best for their future to negotiate and work together with Israel. One can hope. 

[kaldridgewv2211]

Not everyone else is a terrorist…. there is also the possibility that they are anti-semites.

[julie.young_645]

You can behave like that all you wish, although I find your comments disappointing in the extreme. It’s time to deal with reality. Which is what Trump is doing here. Jerusalem has been Israel’s capitol from ancient times, and since 1948 in its most recent incarnation. That is reality. Trump is acknowledging this. But that disturbs the murderous fantasies of Hamas and Edrogan, and all the others who would see the Jooooooooooos pushed into the Mediterranean if they had their way. Haven’t heard of any Jews threatening violence and riots if Jerusalem wasn’t recognized, have you? Haven’t heard of Jews slaughtering people whilst yelling in Hebrew, have you? 
 
You know very well whom the terrorists are. That you wish to turn it back on Israel says a lot about your concepts of right and wrong. Or lack thereof. 

[kaldridgewv2211]

Probably a different thread for this but there in lies the problem.  We get what we want based on ancient religious claims.
 
“Jerusalem has been Israel’s capitol from ancient times”

And now Nikki Haley is saying Trumps accusers should be heard.

They should be heard, and they should be dealt with, Ms. Haley said on CBSs Face the Nation. And I think we heard from them prior to the election. And I think any woman who has felt violated or felt mistreated in any way, they have every right to speak up.

Her remarks are the latest indication that the presidents behavior toward women more than a dozen have accused him of unwanted touching, forcible kissing or groping may not escape renewed scrutiny at a time when an array of powerful men have had their careers derailed because of their improper treatment of women, some of which took place decades ago.

Drip, drip, drip. Maybe things will be catching up on Trump after all? He is not coated in Teflon?

[100574]

[link=http://bit.ly/2CZ7RHo]David Remnick[/link]:

Trump has no comprehension of policy and cares about it less. He surrounds himself with aides who are either wildly incompetent or utterly defeated in their attempts to domesticate the mulish and bizarre object of their attention. There are no lingering illusions about the Presidents capacities: Secretary of State Rex Tillerson called Trump a fucking moron and spared us a denial. Wolffs book, which leans heavily on interviews with Steve Bannon, makes it plain that pretty much everyone in the Presidents circle agrees that he is, in terms of character and intellect, fantastically limited. There is no loyalty or deliberation in the White House, only a savage Lord of the Flies sort of chaos. Each day is at once preposterous, poisonous, and dangerous.
 
 
In the meantime, there is little doubt about who Donald Trump is, the harm he has done already, and the greater harm he threatens. He is unfit to hold any public office, much less the highest in the land. This is not merely an orthodoxy of the opposition; his panicked courtiers have been leaking word of it from his first weeks in office. The President of the United States has become a leading security threat to the United States.
 

 
 
Yep.

We unbelievers have no work to do as Trump himself daily proves he is a buffoon. Take the blinders off your own eyes. Trump is totally unqualified and you have enthusiastically bought the snake oil from an idiot-savant whom you continue to support. He has been only worthy of scorn since he appeared in the public arena in the 1970’s, the NY Clown of real estate. I thought so then & he only continues to confirm my worst thoughts and opinions about him and his intelligence.
 
It’s all about Trump, you really don’t matter except as the supporting audience. When you stop to ask questions or the veil falls & you see the Emperor has no clothes, you won’t matter at all except as a target of his twits. When are you going to realize that?

Quote from DICOM_Dan

Trump tweeted today about how nice the weather is for women to March and celebrate the economy and the lowest female unemployment in 18 years.. I don’t even understand if he’s trying to be condescending or out of touch with reality. Maybe both.

Honestly not sure why they are marching.  Did quality of life really deteriorate that much for women under Trump this past year? Where was this march 2, 5, 10, 15, 25 etc years ago?

Maybe because of what Donald tweeted.  Probably because of attitudes like the ones expressed in what you just wrote.  Maybe because it’s their right to do so.  Maybe to have their voices heard and to be engaged.  or to encourage engagement in the political process, like voting.
 
I question more why Nazi’s feel the need to march and chant “you will not replace us”.  They’ve already been replaced.

so another FBI director was about to quit because of a vendetta-like 45 hates McCabe that much( fire him before he gets benefits–so Trump is afraid very afraid–he should learn that in the end Roy Cohn died )
but Cohn is another interesting link between Trump and Murdoch and now wendy deng who put Jared and Ivanka together–the dots are all aligned
Wiki
Cohn also counted R. Murdoch[u][/u] among his clients, pressuring President Ronald Reagan repeatedly in furtherance of Murdoch’s interests. Cohn is credited with introducing Trump and Murdoch in the mid-1970s, marking the beginning of what was to be a deep and pivotal association between them.[b] [/b][i] [/i][u][/u][strike][/strike]

per wiki
In 1971, businessman Trump moved to Manhattan where he became involved in large construction project.  In 1973 the Justice Department accused him of violating the Fair Housing Act in his operation of 39 buildings.Representing Trump, Cohn filed a countersuit against the government for $100 million, asserting that the charges were irresponsible and baseless. Trump settled the charges out of court in 1975 without admitting guilt, saying he was satisfied that the agreement did not “compel the Trump organization to accept persons on welfare as tenants unless as qualified as any other tenant.”[b][/b][i][/i][u][/u][strike][/strike][b][/b][i][/i][u][/u][strike][/strike][b][/b][i][/i][u][/u][strike][/strike][b][/b][i][/i][u][/u][strike][/strike][b][/b][i][/i][u][/u][strike][/strike]

Darn those state laws allowing babies to be born full term. The stable genius with one of the best memories in history said this while addressing the right to life rally.

Right now, a number of state laws allow a baby to be born from his or her mothers womb in the ninth month. It is wrong.”

GENIUS.

Two conservatives discussing Trumpocracy.

[link]https://www.nytimes.com/2…frum-trumpcocracy.html[/link]

DAVID FRUM: First, those differences may be less than you suppose. Ive stressed over and over my belief that Trump is a kleptocrat first. He hates criticism and contradiction, yes, but he mostly seeks to plunder. In order to get away with the plunder and also with his improper connections to Russia Trump must in self-preservation turn off the burglar alarms of the American state. He has attacked the F.B.I. and other means of upholding public integrity. Very relevantly for your concerns, he has degraded the National Security Council and other foreign-policy decision-making arms. They get in his way on Russia.

FRUM: Heres what the Russians have achieved. 1) They blocked from office a capable and effective foreign-policy president who understood them, their aims and how to build effective coalitions against them. 2) They gained a president who for reasons of vanity or worse has left the country vulnerable and exposed to further attack. 3) They gained a president who is smashing apart Americas alliance structures. What intelligent South Korean can look for protection to the United States when its president regularly tweets that it is to China, not the United States, that South Korea should look for protection and who is contemplating sacrificing hundreds of thousands of Korean lives to protect mainland U.S.A.? 4) The Russians gained a United States that operates in ways they are comfortable with open to corruption and oligarchy and they have scored points for the argument that democracy is a joke and a fraud. 5) They have helped install a racial provocateur who identifies every stress point in American political culture and inflames it to the point that the United States polarizes and paralyzes I could go on

Good discussion.

[julie.young_645]

Frum is about as “conservative” as you are. It simply adds to his readership to pretend to be one. 

[kayla.meyer_144]

AM not friendly to IOS.

FRUM: Your use of the word unilaterally casts a useful clarifying light on what may be the foundation of our disagreement. Let me be very clear what I do not mean by Trumpocracy, at least not yet: Caesarism. The authoritarian-nationalist system Trump is building is not being built against Congress, but with Congress and even more, with Republican Parties at the state level. The big reveal to Republicans in the second Obama term, continuing now into the first Trump term, is that you and Reihan Salam and Ramesh Ponnuru and Henry Olsen and other reformicons were right on the politics of Paul Ryan-style conservatism: Such politics simply could not prevail in a free and fair democratic contest. You and they (and me, too) assumed, or at least hoped, that Paul Ryans party would respond to this better-late-than-never recognition of the obvious by moderating their policies. More health care, less immigration, more infrastructure, more family-friendly tax policy, etc.

Instead, they concluded: What if we shaped the electorate to be a little more friendly to us? Might our formerly unpopular ideas prevail then? The G.O.P. is complicit with Trump because he delivered a success that finer leaders and better methods could not deliver. Trumpocracy is the fusion of Trumps authoritarian instincts with the G.O.P.s plutocratic instincts in the context of a country trending in very different directions.

POLITICO: [link=https://www.politico.com/story/2018/01/24/trump-davos-elites-learn-to-live-with-trump-367517][b]The buffoon presidency?[/b] Davos elites learn to live with Trump The president will arrive in Switzerland to find global business leaders ready to welcome him or at least to say he hasnt been as bad as they thought he’d be.[/link]

What has come as a surprise to many of those people is how much they are learning to live with and in some cases even enjoy the Buffoon Presidency.

However much the typical Davos habitué disagrees with Trumps rhetoric on free trade and global integration, these are supremely practical types. One year into Trump, they are accommodating themselves to a changed power reality.

Across the spectrum, it seems evident that the pleas of Trump critics in the United States [i]dont normalize an abnormal presidency [/i] have been rejected by the government and industry leaders who congregate at the World Economic Forums annual gathering in the Alps.

Aside from Trumps incendiary bluster, many say, the actual consequences of his presidency have been more agreeable (or less disagreeable) than they feared a year ago. This is especially true in business circles, where people note that both the U.S and European economies are purring nicely.

Just because CNN says it doesnt make it so.

[kaldridgewv2211]

They should kiss his butt because he’ll love them for it. I think k he’s probably easily played by appealing to his ego. Also they want to do business with the USA. We are a lot of consumers.

Did the tax cuts kick in? I was trying to compare a check from last year to a check from today. Looked like I saved a whole $7 in Federal.

It’s depressing to see so many Leftists scowling into their beers simply because Trump puts Americans first. All it would take for you guys to be happy are a little bit of decency and at least a smidgen of self-respect.

Coincidence. Trump education secretary Betsy Devon met with Michigan State president 2 days before rolling back title 9 protection for sexual assault victims. Just so happens to be the epicenter of the USA gymnastics doctor abusing all the girls.

Meh.  Still made sense to roll back those protections. They did little to help the cause.
 
I mean…look at how much good they did with the MSU case, as just one example.

What’s that got to do with anything? What protected the boys at Penn State from Sandusky or all the choir boys from sexual predators in the Catholic Church. Get rid of the laws because they didn’t work?

[b]Quote of the day: [/b]

He cheats like hell so I dont quite know how he is in business. They say that if you cheat at golf, you cheat at business. Im pretty sure he pays his caddie well, since no matter how far into the woods he hits the ball, its in the middle of the fairway when we get there.

Norwegian golf ace Suzann Pettersen, in an interview with [link=https://www.vg.no/sport/i/bKzErq/lpga-star-on-trump-he-cheats-like-hell-]VG[/link], on playing golf with Donald Trump.

[kaldridgewv2211]

There’s video of him playing pro-ams etc… you can find on youtube.  He says he’s a scratch golfer.  I’ve seen his swing.  It’s too flat and his tempo is like someone playing whack-a-mole.  

[Unknown Member]

My handicap is 10.
There is no way he is a scratch golfer.
Having said that, cheating is rampant among amateur golfers.

Maybe start a golf topic and post some proof that cheating is rampant.  

[kayla.meyer_144]

That he cheats and lies is only more reason for the Trump supporters to cheer for him even more. It’s more fingers in the eyes of Liberals and Democrats and Establishment Republicans, everything else is irrelevant other than building a wall and keeping immigrants out, whether legal or illegal.
 
Trump’s antics are a distraction that he uses to best advantage and frankly these antics should be ignored. It’s like Captain Renault being shocked, shocked! Trump’s being an idiot is only reason to support him more because it bothers those who his supporters hate.
 
Stick with the investigation & protect the investigation & findings. The release of the memo is going to be another breathless distraction.
