So, I'm wondering.......is he practicing to "drain" the swamp by doing exactly how the "politicians" do it...you know, so he knows how they fill it, to then drain it. That must be it. That has to be it. Oh, now I see. You know, I take it back, he IS a smart man.

In order to drain it, he first needs to know how they fill the swamp. I have to compliment Trump, I would have never thought of doing it that way. So he IS a genius. Wow, who'd of thunk it.

Boy, do I have egg on my face. He's using reverse psychology. Make that man president....now we're talking. Make America Great Again! Now I get it!
He's really showing "us" just how the real "politicians" do it, then he's going to expose all those phony baloneys. Gee Whiz, Gosh almighty....he's
a gosh darn wizard, he is.

Bit of a turnabout.




I dunno man. A lot of people with nice cushy government jobs have either been fired or quit in the last year. Some of them pretty damn high profile.

That's never a thing to celebrate in the private sector, but I smile real wide in this brave new economy everytime I hear about it happening in the public sector.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

You know me as an individual who creates critiques on the communication of the day, especially those made by the obnoxious - namely, in this case, Trump.

I don't think my answer was complete. How did you not get my gist from the comment I made? Anyway, if you didn't know from the thread topic, then surely you could have guessed it from the author of the thread.

Sometimes you make sense and are reasonable. I conjured this was one of those. I don't follow everything you post, any many threads I don't bother with, so I wouldn't know what you post in there.

I didn't really think of you as a tweeterbot or facebound. Thanks for the clarification, but forgive me if I forget about it sometime.
If you want us to know what you're babbling about regarding twits, kindly post a transcript of whatever you are reacting to. I don't know anybody who siphons political social media like that.

You're like Wishi. Every time you post your pompous, self-important judgments - that are 180 off from reality - you get funnier and funnier.




13 Russians indicted.

And the Russians are STILL not here.




So anyway ... anyone up for a rational, fact-based, and civil discussion about the topic?

Same with poor George W and his war crimes indictments. I guess those people will just have to manage their itineraries.

But mostly - I don't care.

But but but they said they were here, and they pretended they were here. Doesn't that count for anything?
Or only in Libtard fantasyland?

It's Mueller that's draining the swamp. Not Trump but Mueller.
