Our New President - President Donald Trump

Post Reply New Topic

Putin might not be a Communist, per se....but he's certainly an autocrat in the Brezhnev mode, like the good ole USSR.

I don't want Russia as an ally....though I don't want to war with them, either. I'd rather they cooperate with us, and we with them---but that we remain wary of them.

Why does everybody think I'm a Democrat? I'm not one!

I find Democrats kowtowing with the Russians as offensive as Republicans kowtowing with the Russians.

I like Democracy....and I like the fact that we're a Republic....but I'm neither Democrat nor Republican. I stand for anything which enhances the lives of my friends and family, and my community at the grass roots level.

As I have said before, the reason I refused to vote in elections since 1980 is I've been betrayed by the policies and platforms of both parties. The democrats of today might as well be the republicans of the 1960's. The republicans of today might as well be Lyndon LaRouche's Social Democratic Party of the 1980's. Their views were very much in line with the Westboro Baptist Church of Wichita, KS, under Fred Phelps (God hates fags, God hates ret*ds, God hates Aspies/Auties, God hates everyone who don't believe and worship the way they do, etc.). I voted the way I did in this election (none of the above), because, in my puny brain, none of the candidates deserved to be in office. No modern candidate knows what leadership really is, except may be Mad Dog Mattis, and Colin Powell, in my not so humble opinion.

The Borowitz Report: Putin Demands Sessions Resign from Russian Government

I haven't seen that train that Raptor posted since the 1980s.

It's a NYC subway train from the 1950s.

Flashback: Chuck Schumer Meets with Putin in New York City

http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/03 ... york-city/

From the article :

Where’s the outrage?

"Democrat Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer continues to push the Russia conspiracy.But it was Schumer who met with Putin in New York City – not Trump.

The picture above was taken in 2003 as Russian President Vladimir Putin, right, enjoys a Krispy Kreme doughnut and coffee with Senator Charles Schumer from New York as Putin visits the first New York gas station of the Russian company Lukoil.

The hysteria over Trump administration officials talking — or not talking — with Russia needs to end.

It’s getting in the way of putting America back on track."

Deep State Operatives Are Attempting to Sabotage the Duly Elected President of the United States

https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2017 ... ed-states/

From the article :

"This story is not about Jeff Sessions. This story is not about illegal talks between Trump and his campaign people and the Russians. This story is about Barack Obama and the Democrat Party attempting to sabotage the Trump presidency and do everything they can to either render it meaningless and ineffective or to get him impeached or force him to resign. That’s what the story is. And that is what has to be attacked, not defended."

"We have no reason to be on defense all the time. We won the election. These people are barely hanging on. This is all they’ve got. And there’s no evidence, despite a year and a half of allegations of illegal contact between Trump, his campaign, and the Russians. There is no evidence."

Russian FM calls Sessions uproar a replay of McCarthyism

https://www.google.com/amp/s/cdn.relaym ... ccarthyism

From the article :

"Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov argued that contacts with officials and lawmakers are part of any ambassador's duties. He added that the pressure on Sessions "strongly resembles a witch hunt or the times of McCarthyism, which we thought were long over in the United States as a civilized country."

Former President George W. Bush says his recent remarks have been misconstrued as criticism of Trump

http://www.latimes.com/politics/essenti ... story.html

I think Bush did make a pertinent statement though---that we need a "loyal opposition."

Bush was espousing the idea that we need an adversarial press to hold politicians (including Bush himself!) accountable. It was more of a cautionary statement, rather than a direct criticism of Trump.

Bush, like I said, is no bleeding-heart liberal. But he is, at least, dedicated (at least superficially) in the ideals of our Constitution as it relates to freedom of the press.
