    The Trump Card...

    Susan Rice is refusing an invitation to testify in front of Congress. I wonder what she's hiding. Anybody remember how in 2005 the Undersecretary of State for Arms Control and International Security, John Bolton, got skewered, grilled and baked over his unambiguously justifiable10 requests...

    Paragould, Walnut Ridge/Hoxie, and Pocahontas make up the Arkansas Bermuda Triangle. Glad to see you made it out relatively unscathed.

    The Trump Card...

    The same kind of an "I Have a Dream" piece was written by a republican about Obama. You also get the same kind of "I Have a Dream" type pieces written about how a president can, and should, serve a third term. He, hey! It could happen!

    The Trump Card...

    Yada, yada, yada ... = Deflection, deflection, deflection There is no requirement of releasing tax returns as a prerequisite for running for the office of President. People had every right, and every opportunity, to NOT vote for Trump due to him not releasing his tax returns. Also, there is no...

    The Trump Card...

    Cop knocks on your door, says "I want to search your house." You: "No" Cop: "What are you hiding? If you have nothing to hide, you won't mind me searching your house." Democrats to Trump: "If you have nothing to hide, release your tax returns." Same thing. Exactly.

    Best lines from Aliens: Ripley: These people are here to protect you. They're soldiers. Newt: It won't make any difference. Newt: We'd better get back, 'cause it'll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night... ... mostly.

    The Trump Card...

    Just thought I'd point this out, in order to, you know, get my own confirmational bias neener neener in, of the importance of how perception of the economy trumps the hard economic indicator numbers in a presidential election. This is the best news Donald Trump has had in a while -...

    The Trump Card...

    Me neither. But, the Republicans control the NY State Senate, so it's unlikely to even come up for a vote. And, if the Supreme Court takes the view that the law is politically motivated and punitive, they'll strike it down on privacy violations of the 14th Amendment. The New Jersey bill, for...

    That's a really good movie. But like most suspense thrillers, it's a one-time viewing for me. Once you've seem 'em, both the suspense, and the thrill is gone. I started watching that one again not too long ago, and gave up 20 minutes in to it, because I knew what was gonna happen. A couple of...

    The Trump Card...

    One thing to keep in mind is, a government shutdown in September carries far greater negative political consequences for those up for reelection in 2018 than does a shutdown in May, before the recess. It may be a case of picking your battles. I do agree that with Republicans in control of...

    Especially if what he has to say is negative. Dr. Schwartz, is it? For every independent confirmation of your thoughts and biases on Trump you can find, it's easy to find one that contradicts it. Yeah, but you used an article about bridge graffiti to bolster your position that the bridge will...

    The Trump Card...

    Please do not twist the meanings of my words. "The failings of an incompetent Republican congressional leadership" is a comment solely about the content of the article and in no way addresses Trump's "reversals and setbacks." You cited an article about the failings of Republicans in Congress...

    The Trump Card...

    Since, clearly, 102 days into office is more than enough time for Trump to have completed all the items on his agenda, the notion that he is failing bigly and is obviously out of his element and impeachment is inevitable, seems like a pretty big takeaway from an article about the failings of an...

    The Trump Card...

    Depends on what he meant. If he was honored to meet him, the same way one might be honored to meet Clint Eastwood, that's a problem. If he meant he would be honored to slam dunk the guy, that's very different. All I know is, you can get a better gauge of someone face to face than you can third...

    The Trump Card...

    Trump said several times during the campaign that he'd talk to anybody. Doesn't hurt to talk. If you won't talk to someone it limits your options. If nothing comes from the talk, at least you gave it a shot.

    Honored to do what? Meet Kim? Represent the United States in a meeting with a foreign head of state? Honored to slam dunk him face-to-face? Honored to troll him like he does to reporters during interviews? In the absence of those types of answers, let's just assume the most negative...
