Trump, July 2017: Tweet more

I read the Trump tweet Ned linked as him complaining. Is he not?

WHEN is he not?

'I didn't win the election the way I wanted to win it! Not fair!'

poor guy

that's why i think the glamorization of trump as some kind of 'alpha male' is so hilarious since his twitter feed is basically him just whining 24/7

For anyone confused, here's a succinct summary of events.

Fox News running with "BUT Clinton did it too!" narrative

Nicely done, comrades.

Has there been any attempt at an explanation as to why Emin apparently swindled Rob Goldstone and sent an unconnected lawyer to talk sanctions instead of someone with dirt? Because that part doesn't really make sense (and of course, there's no reason to believe it's true)

guys guys there's plenty of fumbling incompetence to go around

SO TIRED of lazy, boring tu quoque

latin, sounds like something a coastal elitist would use

what's latin for "libtears"

suspensus chads in floridia

This is my great fear. That this is somehow a strategy. It's beyond cynical https://t.co/WYxVDri93Z

did you idiots really not notice this "strategy" for forty years until the world's least subtle political messenger starting doing it https://t.co/ofXzW4vGcX

The going theory is that the lawyer was working for Denis Katsyv - who was fighting a money-laundering charge linked to the Magnitsky evidence. Katsyv's father used to be governor of the Moscow Region (the bit around Moscow that is not Moscow itself) and is friends with Aras Agalarov - who made most of his billions building offices, malls, etc, in Moscow Region. Aras is Emin's dad.

According to emails released Tuesday by Trump Jr., on June 3, 2016—shortly after Trump had secured the Republican presidential nomination—Aras was in a meeting with Yury Chaika, the prosecutor general of Russia, who had been in the post since 2006.

Well, no - according to the emails, Trump Jr. received an email claiming this meeting happened - this doesn't need to be true (and as Fred points out it doesn't match with what happened next) for this to be bad news for Jr.

Fortunately the deplorables have a sane view on this oh wait.

so this is what Dems are going to run and lose with in 2020

This is an exchange worth watching. Lindsey Graham pushes Wray several times on Don Jr.'s emails. Wray tries dodging. Graham won't let him. pic.twitter.com/n8H9jCrAUD

One disturbing takeaway: does Chuck Todd still hit the spacebar twice after a period?

Graham will vote yes

Lindsey Graham is worthless, and obviously showboating here, but okay, irl lol.

so this is what Dems are going to run and lose with in 2020

No, like this.

^^^otm

backlash against the GOP is gonna be p fierce the longer this drags on and the fewer accomplishments they notch. If the economy tanks/huge natural disaster/huge catastrophe happens then that will only damage them more. And they're going to get it from both the far right due to in-fighting ("Congress won't help Trump!" etc.) and from an energized left.

so this is what Dems are going to run and lose with in 2020

*sigh*

Imagining Bannon cracking up at that one.

He was aiming for "Jew-red Kosher" but will still count it as a win.

We're at a point where it's not inconceivable that someone in the WH (possibly even the POTUS) put a bug in the ear of someone at Fox News to 'accidentally' drop something anti-Semitic re: Kushner to knock him down a peg.

Was there ever an effort to reestablish the pre-Nazi significance of the swastika? Because this seems maybe just north of that in terms of likelihood.

“If Hillary had won, our military would be decimated. Our energy would be much more expensive. That's what Putin doesn't like about me,” Trump said in an interview with Christian Broadcasting Network founder Pat Robertson.

“And that's why I say, why would he want me? Because from day one I wanted a strong military — he doesn't want to see that,” the president added.

so he goes on the stupid fucks show ? lol what a fucking idiot
