Meanwhile, over behind this curtain, the FBI had evidence that the Clintons were given millions by the Russians but let the uranium deal go through anyway.
yes!!! This is finally the one that "The Resistance" will use to bring him down.
Libs are such idiots.

Who supports Trump are as bad as people who looked away when Weinstein sexually assaulter women. This is what Trump is. A con artist that should have gone to prison a long time ago. He was a con artist when he was a Democrat, and he is still a con artist now.

Bill Clinton ACTUALLY assaulted women. He didnt do it in fantasyland. So you support Bill going to prison? How about Hillary for covering it up?

Getting back to my first point, release the tape and make it link to a fundraiser for some type of fallen warrior foundation. I bet you the Johnson family would be fine with releasing the tape under those circumstances. Trump was happy to send out correspondence on the NFL anthem issue linking fundraisers to his re-election campaign. He has no problem politicizing the Anthem for his own profits; may as well do something nice for those who deserve it instead.
But it won't happen. Instead, it's just another black mark on Trump's floundering reputation with most Americans.
Keep counting.
You know what else you can count? The folks like me that didn't vote in the last election because I didn't like either candidate. However, since January and the reaction and continual BS attempts by the left to vilify the President... I'll be voting for Trump in 2020. And I know many more who feel the same why I do.

Again, we didn't. That's the meme and right-wing talking point you were indoctrinated to believe.
Bush was mainly blamed, and rightly so, for the crash of the economy on his watch and the failed Iraq war management that lead to ISIS. These facts are not in dispute among honest folk.

Among honest folk, there's no dispute that Obama's negligence and horrible policies are responsible for ISIS. W. fixed his mistakes in Iraq at a high price. Obama left it for Trump to fix.

You want me to flood this thread with clips from the 2 pound powerlifting baffoon where he continuously blamed Bush for the mess he was left?

RE: He knew what he was signing up for
I am not remotely concerned that a CIC of any party hasn't called the family of a fallen soldier. I do agree, wholeheartedly, that the solider, especially a Special Forces soldier, knew what he was signing up for.
Let his CO handle the condolences.
Sorry, but I am just a bit tired of this hero worship. Cops, firefighters, soldiers etc. They have a hard job, but it wasn't assigned to them at the Directorate Of Jobs.

Wilson/Waters (or is it Waters/Wilson)?
I have never heard of her before yesterday. But in reading her wikipedia page, I do like the fact that she is known for wearing colorful hats (apparently she wears one every day to honor her late grandmother). She had asked Former House Speaker John Boehner to waive the rule prohibiting the wearing of hats on the floor of the House of Representatives, a rule in place since 1837.

RE: He knew what he was signing up for
Problem this should never be a topic. Trump needs to just do what he can do and quit trying to compare to Obama. No reason to be having this discussion. there are no winners in this.
Trump cannot win, since he has not called everyone, and its turning to how the conversation went.
Gold Star families, have to be asked questions about if was contacted.
Americans We do not need to hear if the President contacted the Gold Star family or if it was the VP or a Commander in Unit. Its between the members family and the military.

Trump always sounds like he always say the wrong thing that upsets a lot of people. If he can't say things the right way without offending a mourning family? Either resign or hand the duties to Mike Pence.
