Is that a bad thing?

Depends if you are a Cowboy or an Indian .

Its mainly liberal crybabies who cant handle not getting their way. They cry and cry and cry. Then they stomp their feet and pitch a tanty.

I believe you are 100% correct. Trump didn't win because he's a good candidate or that people believe he will be a good president. He won because Hillary was his opponent. That and the GOP wanted to control the Supreme Court at any cost.

It was a true "lesser of two evils" election. It's not like we haven't had them before, but this was the bottom of the barrel.

I didn't like either candidate for this very reason. I have a bottom threshold in regards to voting and neither of these two could reach it. I just hope those who voted for Trump will admit when it all blows up instead of trying to blame everyone else or the press.

I don't doubt he can accomplish some things and some things I agree with him about. Right off the top of my head....

1. Bringing jobs back.

2. Border wall.

3. 2nd amendment.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until I see more but my hopes aren't very high. The same would have held true for Hillary.

You mean like the GOP did for the eight years Obama was president? Ya'll have very short memories and Trump hasn't even been inaugurated yet! lol

Great response . Thanks for contributing because ..yeah ... thats exactly what it mainly is .. liberals and temper tantrums . I envy you for the narrow spectrum of life that you must deal with to come up with that answer . Would tax my mind so much less if I had a bad guy to hang all the worlds problems on ... Liberals ..yeah , hate those guys .

The liberals are making a much bigger deal about it. Like someone else said...its not even close.

*shrugs* ... not really sure what that means ...

Guess I'd need to know your definition of cowboys and indians for starters ......

You mean like the democrats did for 8 years under Bush? We can go all the way back to the earliest Presidents with this.

It doesn't surprise me that they are treating Trump the way they are, it didn't surprise me they treated Obama the way they did, it didn't surprise me they treated Bush the way they did.. what continues to surprise me is how each side acts like this is something new or their side has some moral high ground to stand on...

I appreciate Rubio doing his thing. While I don't side with republicans on much of anything, I appreciate most of them trying to do the right thing and stand against Russia.

Handing Perfect a towel, your starting to smell from all of this.

You simply punctuated my point DC.

Didn't Trump say he couldn't release these documents until his audit was over? Not 100% sure since I was only half listening to the news when this came up. If I'm wrong please correct me.

He said he wouldn't.

Big difference. The IRS already said he can release them whenever he wants. There's no rule that says he has to wait until an audit is done.

What Swish said.

You can run but you can't hide, hairball...


The former British spy who allegedly created an incriminating but now-discredited dossier on President-elect Donald Trump has gone into hiding.

Christopher David Steele, 52, was seen hurriedly leaving his home southwest of London on Wednesday, apparently to avoid detection and escape possible retribution once his identity as the source of the salacious document became known, the New York Times reported.

I am ashamed to share a 1st name with this guy. He should have to change his name to "moron".

Wait, how did this guys identity become known to the press ? I assumed that the report would have gone to some lengths to hide his identity and his sources ( if any part of this was true ) and if it were an entire fabrication wouldn't his name have been exposed anyway in the course of an investigation ?
Either way his identity and those of his so called sources would be uncovered , would have to be uncovered ?
My conclusion is that this report if released on time would have cast serious bad light on the Donald Trump campaign even if it turned out to be false . In the end the Reublican sources of this potential smear campaign backed out and handed it to the Dems who also balked and some click bait "news" source decided to hell with it we need advertising dollars and let the info fly ?

Political strategy would be such a fun business to be in .

Well, it does appear we know more FACTS about this Christopher Steele than he released in his dossier. Does it not?

Run hairball run.

Christopher Steele helped taked down Fifa's corruption ring.

Watch and see where the stream of news and information from this report goes. the US intelligence committee only said "we can't verify the accuracy", and not "this report is total trash."

Both Trump, and Obama have read the finer details of this.

Even the main Watergate guy is involved in this.

This has more legs than BENGHAZI?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! and email servers.

Still rolling with the golden showers accusations, I see.

My jokes continue to mellow while it's yellow.

This report at this time has not been verified or denied, but it is out there. CNN had about 12 different sources that knew of this report. Info was given to Senator McCain who thought he should pass it on to the FBI.
According to Kelly Anne Conway, this fake news was never even briefed to Trump. But last night James Clapper call Trump to tell him that the intelligence community did not leak the document. Also today, Biden said that the 4 heads of the agencies DID in fact tell Trump that the information was out there and Russia does think that they have one up on Trump. Also Comey today said that he himself told Trump about what they found out because they are obliged to tell the president of matters of national security.
Also concerning the actual information, the BBC today amongst others said that there is audio and video of different Trump escapades in at least 2 different locations in Russia..

Bigger issues to me...part of that report said that members of Trumps team had ongoing correspondence with Russia going back months.

I assume that Trump would be in Russia for business if this video/audio was taken; I thought I remembered him saying in the past that he had business dealings that would take him to Russia. There is supposed video of him in Russia. He said yesterday in a tweet that he has NO DEALS, NO LOANS, NO NOTHING!. That is not quite true...he has had the Ms Universe pageant in Russia and has been trying to build in Russia for 30 years. He also has done deals with Russians with Russian backing of his properties in the United States

Dawg- you can run with this rhyming riff all you want- just leave the cello out of it!

As you may (or may not) have noticed.... I ain't said 'word the first' in this thread. It's too new, it's too raw, it's too unsubstantiated.... and it's just too dirty for words.

Leave my girdfirend out of this.

Now, with less than 10 days until Trump takes the oath of office, Rosie O’Donnell says that she’d support “martial law” in order to delay his inauguration.

“FULLY SUPPORT IMPOSING MARTIAL LAW – DELAYING THE INAUGURATION – UNTIL TRUMP IS ‘CLEARED’ OF ALL CHARGES,” O’Donnell wrote in response to a Twitter user who suggested the U.S. military take control of the government until the president-elect can prove he has no financial ties to Russia.

She's s00per-st00pid now... because she's had decades of practice.

You only get good at something if you work at it daily- for years.



Never liked her. Not even for one moment.

Not funny.
Not entertaining.
Not smart.
Not worth my time.

I haven't heard this until just now.... it's really a thing?

FOR THE RECORD:

I didn't vote for the guy. I wanted a different result from the election. I still don't like him: he represents too many of the traits I was raised to loathe.

That said: I want our traditions of power transfer to proceed as they always have. The country and its institutions are bigger than the individuals who come and go. If we try to throw out the institutions that have brought us through 240 years of change and evolution just because we don't like the most recent results, we discard the framework that will protect our vote when things go the way we want.

Adults (who actually had Civics in their HS curriculum) understand this.
Children do not.

Rosie O'D: children are to be seen, not heard. Come back to the conversation when you've learned how to handle disappointment without a tantrum.

she's dumb

She is just still mad at Trump because he can get away with grabbing "Kitty cats" and she can't

When I first read her tweet I was

But as I thought about it, the marshal law part, I thought
Hmmmmm, Marshal law would be a good time to round up undesirables
and wrong thinkers and filling them FEMA camps.

The problem with Marshal Law is you never know who da Marshal will be.

But alas, tis America with that Constitution and stuff.

Does the same go for the rapist, fugitive, Julian Assange? Probably not since his fake news is what your lot wants to hear.

Why? Do you have proof that the Hillary and DNC emails, released by Assange, were fakes??? NOT! Those people actually said those things and now we know why they are sitting home watching the big game from the couch.

Link please...And where's your proof that those aren't fakes???

Neither Hillary nor the DNC denies those are their emails.
They are unhappy that the truth was made public.

Normally I would disagree with you, but in all honestly, this looks a little to made up for me.

I think this is Opposition research gone wild.

If any of this comes out as true, I'd be shocked.

Donald Trump claims intelligence chief 'denounced' Russia dossier despite official statement to contrary

Donald Trump has claimed US intelligence chief James Clapper called him to "denounce" an explosive dossier alleging links with Russia, despite an official statement hours earlier that said no judgement had been reached on the document's reliability.

Mr Clapper spoke with the President-elect on Wednesday evening to discuss the dossier - believed to have been compiled by a former British spy - that claims to show Russian intelligence agencies have compromising material about Mr Trump.

In a statement released after their conversation the director of national intelligence said: “The IC [intelligence community] has not made any judgement that the information in this document is reliable, and we did not rely upon it in any way for our conclusions.”

But Mr Trump used his first tweet on Thursday morning - just a few hours later - to claim that the intelligence chief had instead rubbished the report.

The incoming president wrote: “James Clapper called me yesterday to denounce the false and fictitious report that was illegally circulated. Made up, phony facts. Too bad!”

A fresh row between the President-elect and America’s most senior intelligence officer threatens to drive a deeper wedge between the agencies and Mr Trump, who will be inaugurated on 20 January.

In his New York news conference, Mr Trump made clear that he suspected US intelligence agencies of releasing the 35-page dossier, saying it would be a "tremendous blot" on the agencies' reputation if they were shown to have leaked it.

He earlier said they should “never have allowed this fake news to ‘leak’ into the public” and compared the intelligence agencies to Nazi Germany.

Mr Clapper responded by denying intelligence responsibility in a statement released after the news conference, saying: “I expressed my profound dismay at the leaks that have been appearing in the press, and we both agreed that they are extremely corrosive and damaging to our national security.

“I emphasised that this document is not a US Intelligence Community product and that I do not believe the leaks came from within the IC.”

Senior aide to the incoming president Kellyanne Conway told NBC's Today programme that the President-elect was "very happy" to get Mr Clapper's call.

However, she did not say whether Mr Trump believes the intelligence chief’s suggestion that the document was produced by someone outside the intelligence community.

The dossier contains unproven information about coordination between Mr Trump's inner circle and Russians about hacking into Democratic accounts, as well as unproven claims about unusual sexual activities by Mr Trump.

In October, then-senator Harry Reid wrote to the FBI asking it to release what it knew about the property tycoon’s ties to Russia.

In a letter on 30 October Mr Reid said he learned of the information from FBI Director James Comey and other top national security officials.

A few weeks later Senator John McCain became aware of the allegations but decided it was impossible to verify them without a proper investigation, according to reports.

Bu it was only last week that Mr Trump and President Barack Obama were briefed on the intelligence community's findings.

I guess comparing things to Nazis now is acceptable and telling lies about what he was briefed on are just fine too.

All hail the commander In Tweet! lol

Commander in Tweet! Oh man, I damn near lost it on that one...LOL Good job.,

There is no question, you can't believe a word Trump says. As for his minions, well, let's just say, if Trump says jump, they don't question it, they ask how high.

Personally, and I know that it's not well received on this board, but I really look at him as a little Hitler. JMO however.

Pits statement:

Said in an apparently derogatory manner.


And your statement:


Anyone see any irony here?

Who are his "minions" Hillar... I mean Daman?

Everybody who voted for him? Everybody who hopes he does well? Or is it just random undefinable percentage of people?

I support him with extreme cautious optimism and have no doubt that there are things he will do that I applaud and things he will do that will make me cringe..


The reason it's not well received is because until he actually DOES something that even resembles moving in that direction, it is just stupid. The left compared Reagan to Stalin, Bush to Hitler and Stalin.. yet here we are.. when will the left get over these moronic comparisons to the worst human beings who have ever lived for the sake of scaring people?

Would the same hold true for Trumps Nazi comment about the intelligence community or are you only attempting to hold Damon to that standard.

I mean if our future president can make such comments, why shouldn't others?
