We shall see. Although given the rest of the hot mess that has been his presidency the Mueller investigation may be his legacy no matter what. And we may not know the outcome of EITHER for quite a while.

Dear lord he would go down as one of most productive on the tough stuff. Also if he did get it done or even got closer. I imagine it will have been with help in the background with the Russians. Which would explain his slow play of the new sanctions.

Honestly I can’t see mueller coming up with anything substantial. Democrats just want him working indefinelty to take away from his presidency but I imagine this will end soon once a special counsel is had for the Obama admin FISA abuse. When that happens dems will be calling to end all special counsels.

Hard to see with your blinders on and eyes shut. ![]() I mean you're blaming the Democrats when the Republicans named a Republican to investigate him, you partisan hack. ![]() RE: Trump agrees to meet with North Korea's Kim Jong Un, South Korea says - StLucieBengal - 03-08-2018 (03-08-2018, 10:38 PM)Nately120 Wrote: He could be the next Nixon...a real sleazebag who was bafflingly productive on the foreign policy front and then forced to resign in disgrace!

As a third party guy I would think you would at least enjoy the fact that the establishment of both parties hate him.

By reuniting you don’t mean one country do you? No way that little psychopath gives up his power.

But this glimmer of hope is take some of the pressure off the "whose button is bigger" for a little while.

I want fiscal conservatism and social freedom. So no, Trump certainly doesn't tickle me. I will say that people being upset interests and entertains me though, but that's also why I was obsessively checking this message board when Marvin got that extension...not sure if that's the sort of thing normal people do.

I'd take that, actually. It’s not really baffling. What led to his resignation really didn’t have anything to do with his abilities as a President. His could have gone down as one of the more impressive administrations if not for his extreme paranoia. I think he was most assuredly psychotic.

I want the same for the most part. I do enjoy the fact the establishment hates him. But In the end the only issues I agree with him so far is cutting regulators, taxes, judges, and his desire to enforce immigration laws. Personally I would like to see some CJ reforms but I doubt he gets into any of that stuff.

Are we still talking about Nixon or Trump? ![]() All seriousness aside Nixon was dirty whether his paranoia did him in or not. Nixon also had a good idea about things on a global scale. Something that Trump lacks.

But dirty due to his paranoia, and his need to get back at those who he believed wronged him. I’m not excusing it, I’m just saying that’s different than not being capable of excelling in his duties. I think most presidents are psychotic at least in a narcissistic way. I mean they believe they are the beat person to run the most powerful country.

We could really get off-track here, but I don't trust republicans to deregulate because past history has shown they deregulate and then bail out the companies who screw themselves over with their own greed. Additionally, I find it abhorrently hypocritical to claim you love this country and respect the people who fought and died for it and then deregulate in manners which allow corporations to poison our actual land. I'm no environmentalist, I just find the neo con false patriotism to be an insultingly-thin facade. Taxes? Ehh, my party could (possibly) give us better tax breaks if we'd stop being a slave to government excesses that both popular political parties want. Just because Trump promises the giant bills he racks up will be paid by "someone else" don't make it so. Paying less taxes might actually mean doing without giant walls, endless wars, and a bunch of lefty stuff. Judges? I don't want right-wing judges getting all Biblical on things, but I haven't looked much into Trump's nominee honestly. Enforcing immigration laws sound better when someone who hasn't hired illegals spearheads things. Anyways, I don't care for Trump. |
