Trump MAGAthread VII

[Valrifell]

"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain"

By the way, are these the same people who demanded the seven or so Benghazi probes?

I don't know, maybe causing the death of of Americans on foreign soil because of your department's incompetence deserves an investigation.

One, sure. Two? Maybe. Seven?! I think that's a bit overkill.

I mean, at what point are we wasting taxpayer money?

I agree, seven is overkill. But many liberals just scoff at the idea of the Benghazi investigation when they would be more than happy to impeach Trump for the same thing.

The problem is that there was an investigation, and then an investigation about the investigation, and then another investigation about the last two investigations, and then another, and another, and another, and another.

It really and truly wasn't about an investigation, it was to keep Benghazi for 8 years in the media with our tax money.

Currently, the OIA has administrative responsibility for coordinating federal policy in the territories of American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and oversight of federal programs and funds in the freely associated Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau.

PR. was taken out of the OIA a long time ago.

Generally, it is agreed that the Pres. needs to cut back government expenses in order to lower taxes.

That's not even true. The proposed cuts to Interior, if followed through with all the other cuts in Trump's budget proposal, would only just pay for the 10% bump in military spending. Tax cuts on top of that are pure deficit.

Greg Jarett: Mueller should recuse himself from Trump investigation. Too close to Comey for comfort.

It's amazing how fast Republicans went from "We're glad to see a consummate professional taking over to get to the bottom of this smart and efficiently" when Mueller was appointed to "Mueller is a corrupt compromised liberal deep state shill!" when they realized he was actually going to do his job.

But for some reason they're still the party of fiscal responsibility. Republicans are really good at marketing, it seems.

We can make a benchmark number for when we are officially wasting taxpayer money on Benghazi investigations, and I would like to propose that that number be one trillion dollars. There's no price on The Truth until that price is one trillion dollars. At one trillion dollars is when we start wondering why we didn't use that money towards something useful, like commemorative coins and fixing that pothole right in front of the Capitol Building.

Diplomats and embassy security must be fifty, or a hundred or more times more important than serving military then. Or does Department of Defense somehow not count when there's a witch to be hunted ..?

If the Republicans think keeping that conniving self-absorbed imbecile in the Oval Office is vital then they must be scared of something.

Well sure, once they realized how much there was there the Trumpets started going crazy. I wouldn't be surprised of Trump did try to fire Robert Mueller now

Many people in DC are really against firing Mueller. They have blatantly said that it'd make things worse for Trump and then everyone would start suspecting strongly that there is something there about obstruction of justice Trump doesn't want us to see.

However, what he and everyone else with him are doing right now is worse: they're trying to delegitimize the results of the investigation before the investigation is finished.

And there was one.

But of course, it didn't return the results Republians wanted, and they still needed something to smear OBama with...so they had a second investigation.

And then a third.

And then a fourth.

And then a fifth.

And then a sixth.

And then of course there was an election coming up and they needed to smear Hillary so there had to be a seventh investigation!

And the end result was...confirming the findings of the first investigation, 6 more times.

Republicans devoted more time and energy to investigating the mystery of how four people could die in a poorly secured consulate in a war torn African country than they did to how a terrorist attack could kill 3000 people in the heart of a major American city.

But sure, keep trying to tell us it how legitimate BEEEEENNNNGGGHHHHAAAAAZZZZZIIIII! was.

I mean the man is an epic fuckup. He's so dense that light bends around him. Every day it's something new.

For instance, his tweet yesterday:

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/sta ... gr%5Etweet

Yet he claimed not long ago that the Russians didn't meddle in the election, and is adamant that it had nothing to do with his win.

The cognitive dissonance is truly breath taking.

And remember, that's now an official statement by the President.

[Ifreann]

That'll make his hands bigger and his real hair grow back!

If the WH is going to celebrate/recognize Christmas (which, I mean, come on) then they should celebrate all major religious holidays. This is still supposed to be a secular humanist republic, right?

Nonsense, obviously we an a Evangelical Democratic Theocracy, didn't you get the memo?

But also Not A Democracy^TM.

They had a news story today on that Carrier Air Conditioning manufacturing plant that earlier this year the Pres. visited. Seems they will be firing 600 Union workers, many if not most who voted for the Pres..

I thought that's what was going to happen all along? I knew hundreds of jobs would still be outsourced to Mexico, and the remainder would be automated. Trump never saved jack.
