I'm not the one judging a father / son relationship based on media clips. .

Me thinks you are most likely judging "the father" based on his media clips. With con men it's essential to look at their actions and broken promises, not their words, which are often an active part of the deception.

I mentored a boy who didn't like to hug or even touch. If you judged our relationship on those moments, you would be completely wrong.

Gilsan? OK, that was wrong, but you teed it up for me. Honestly mr-x, I've got to commend you on that, certainly takes a large dose of selflessness to commit the time and energy...assuming you weren't mentoring him in repub propaganda of course

So you're all outraged by Kathy Griffin, but this gets an LOL? A tad hypocritical, don't you think?

Trump was metaphorically holding Obama's head in a photo with all of his birther BS.

I'm not judging the father son relationship by hugging /touching. Do they ever do anything together? Talk? Laugh? Teach him to golf? He may be on the autism /aspergers scale, but you see him interact normally with his mom and with his nieces and nephews. If there was anything positive to show I would think his "friendly" press would be all over it.

Your gossiping about a father and son.

Trump shocks GOP by siding with Dems
Important to note here that Trump has not changed his principles...he never had any to begin with.
Bottom line, "who is willing to stroke my ego?" If you can't see thru this crap, sad day for you.

BTW, no love lost on Pelosi and Schumer. They are specialists in fundraising and maintaining their power and that's about it. We didn't vote them in to represent their donors (multi national corps), we voted them in to represent the American People.

Trump was right... FBI Wiretapped Paul Manafort Before And After The Election... Time to investigate Obama + Hillary.

Yeah, one was by a has been 3rd rate "celebrity" trying to get attention, the other was promoted by the leader of our country.
So actually, the latter was worse. Shows a lack of judgement and self control totally unbefitting the office he holds.

Election's long over. About time he put on his big boy pants and moved the F on.

Manafort - ever consider he was being wiretapped because ... gee, maybe there was suspected illegal activity? Because that's usually why FISA would authorize a wiretap. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

 

[mr-x]

I think FISA is to surveil a foreign person and can't be used as evidence against a US citizen.. according to Judge Napolitano. From what I understand, he was under investigation before joining Trump campaign.

Maybe why Muller had to hire so many lawyers to investigate Manafort's finances.

 

[enlytend]

Whether it was his finances or he was communicating with a foreigner of interest, sounds like he was involved in something dodgy.

Liberals love to see Trump being bashed by the MSM, Hollywood and others, but when Trump re-tweets something harmless and funny they go apeshit. What a lack of F sense of humor.

And I would say: Election's long over. About time she put on her big boy pants and moved the F on.

She lost the election fair and F square. Simple as that...

There's always 2 sides to every story. Here is just one story from the other side, that CNN will not show, about the conflict in Myanmar between Rohingyas and Buddhists..

Strongest hurricane ever to hit PR, 175MPH, gusts up to 200MPH. What a mess that's going to be, Irma already did lots of damage

Uh...no. Contrary to what many Americans believe, the world does not revolve around the USA. There are many problems that would continue to exist, and many would get worse, if the USA were to magically disappear tomorrow. I can't tell you how annoyed I get with Americans who are quaking in their boots over the remote threat of Little Chubby Kim. South Korea and Japan have lived with a much more credible threat for decades.

 

[enlytend]

I was suggesting a solution to the problem for the US, not the world. Current US policy doesn't seem to give a damn about anyone else anyway.

Of course the threat is greatest for those closest who don't have equal or greater resources.

There is nothing good about nukes regardless of who drops the first one or why. Nothing.

Our Dear Leader seems awfully eager to push that button, and I don't see taunting KJU, threatening to destroy his entire country, or threatening to renege on a nuclear agreement with another country as a road to a peaceful solution.

People who are "quaking in their boots" because KJU may be able to drop a bomb on the US mainland or Guam probably don't want to become the incinerated targets of a successful attempt. Or suffer from fallout years later.

So are you implying by your choice of words that that makes them cowards? How silly of them to be concerned with a little thing like that, when they could be busy worrying about immigrants or walls or something.
