Read the article again. The writer says unnamed location, but Trump turns around and Tweets the location, according to the article.


"But an unnamed Defense Department official and other sources told Newsweek..."

I'm.talking about the source saying it was a security violation. To make out Trump did it intentionally is utterly absurd. The media is just having a tantrum because they reported that he was going to be the first President not to visit troops since 2002 and then he did visit them.

None. He has already proven that he’s an idiot. Even capitalists like myself can’t stand him.

Jimmy Dore (avowed Bernie supporter and left-winger - ie. the 'new-new' alt-right!) has been beating the heck out of this over the past few weeks, especially New Knowledge. The cartoon sketch he shows at the very front of the top video I'm about to post really says it all with respect to where he's coming from, and I think Noam Chomsky is of a similar opinion on the Russia issue.

The sources don't reveal their names to media in order to protect themselves, as nowadays governments ask of news media to reveal them, putting them of danger of retaliation; being fired or worse.

Which of course means the news often lies and uses their stories for their political agenda.

Are you comparing Trump to Hitler?

I am SHOCKED!

SHOCKED, I say!

:wink: Not that it doesn't make sense, but that you have just "Godwin'ed" this thread.

Don't ya know... he is the Literal Orange Hitler (TM). He would gas or incinerate tens of millions of people if he had the power, he doesn't have that power of course but - you can rest with 100% certainty he would if he could!

(falsifiable claims are so 20th century...)

I saw the title and can only wonder how many other politicians, Republican and Democrat mind you, have done far worse :?:


Also can't wait to see Hillary 2020. If she fumbles again I'll just cry :lol:

In recent memory, going back about 65 years, Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon, Reagan, GHWB, Clinton, GWB, Obama. None of them, except Nixon and Clinton, were as egregious of tRump.

Don’t even get me started on Conned-gress!

The thing is that none of those people -- Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon, Reagan, GHWB, Clinton, GWB, Obama -- are currently holding a public office, and thus they are not as dangerous as the current Demander In Chief.

I KNOW they’re no longer in office. But they were just as corrupt as tRumpty-Dumpty, but they hid the corruption well, and the fourth and fifth estates were just as complicit.

And how does your observation solve today's problems?

They don't.

They only serve to distract people from the current situation by normalizing it against past behaviors.

Come up with a workable solution that you or I can effect, and you can count me in. But if all you can come up with as a solution is to dredge up the dead past and hold it up as more "evidence" of our present condition, then you can count me out -- placing blame is not a solution, it is a distraction.

I’m pointing out all the chicanery of the past 65 years with leadership ON BOTH SIDES that has led to the Orange Despot being elected. As some people have stated on other forums, the Orange Despot is the symptom that has been formenting for all this time. As for having a solution, frankly, I have no ideas. I’m just a feeble-minded jackass to most people who doesn’t deserve to be heard.

I wish I could laugh at this post.
