    The Trump Card...

    Which statute? Correct Also correct. Trump's problem is not that he is not getting things done. It's that what he's getting done is going to get him impeached and convicted. True, he is a businessman but the U.S. presidency is not a business. It's government. Trump lacks the political...

    Apparently, the time line is longer. Also, exactly how narcissistic am I claiming Trump to be? Are you keeping score? If so, what is the criteria?

    The Trump Card...

    That's kinda the question of the day, is it not? Is it legal or illegal, or is it constitutional or unconstitutional for Trump to receive money from foreign entities while he holds the office of President of the United States? I believe it is illegal and unconstitutional, but that is the belief...

    The Trump Card...

    Yes, Moot, speaking as a layperson and claiming no expertise on this topic, I believe Trump is more narcissistic than Hillary Clinton. Further, I'll reiterate my belief previously stated that Trump's narcissism will be his undoing. I base my belief on what certain experts say on the topic...

    All true, but you're here today and you care today, do you not?

    The Trump Card...

    Some people, including me, believe Trump has violated the emoluments clause of the Constitution. That question was raised some time ago and has been making its way through the courts. On Oct 15, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against Trump and that case is proceeding to the next...

    The Trump Card...

    It seems the Senate Republicans believe the opposite. They expect the House to impeach the president. Whether the Senate will convict is another question. Early speculation that McConnell would refuse to take up the matter when the House delivered articles of impeachment to the Senate proved...

    The Trump Card...

    Some people here are defending Trump's decision to move U.S. troops out of a certain area in Syria. All U.S. House Democrats and an approximate 2 to 1 majority (129 to 60) of Republicans are openly condemning the move. WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly on...

    The Trump Card...

    I don't hate Trump. I feel bad for him. He's on a path to no good end and it's a sad story working itself out. What deeply troubles me is that a man who is not fit to lead occupies the most powerful seat in the world. His narcissistic impulses and self-centered actions are undermining our...

    The Trump Card...

    Trump's view of himself and himself as president is noteworthy. Jan 16, 2018: "I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius ... and a very stable genius at that!" Aug. 21, 2019: "I am the chosen one." Aug 23, 2019: "Our great American companies are hereby ordered to ...." and "I am...

    At this point, compared to Pence. OUR SOLDIERS ARE UNDER FIRE BY TRUMP'S FRIEND!!! Pence is not an out-of-control narcissist. Pence would never put our troops in such a situation.

    If course it wasn't. That's a campaign rally attended by Trump's most fervent supporters.

    The Trump Card...

    How much longer are people willing to support a lunatic, self-proclaimed "stable genius" as president? "The Pentagon, however, later corroborated Newsweek's report, with spokesperson Navy Captain Brook DeWalt saying "U.S. troops in the vicinity of Kobani came under artillery fire from Turkish...

    It's going to get worse as staff concludes the walls are crumbling and they start leaking or cooperating in hopes of getting on the clean side of history. Today's news includes three more developments that will loosen the bricks: Trump's Push to Save Coal is Failing. Coal Demand to Plunge to...

    The Trump Card...

    I do not disagree. But even if a full House vote was taken to formally initiate impeachment proceedings, the rules do not require the Speaker to grant subpoena power or the power to call witnesses to the minority party. There is nothing magic about such a vote. I know a number of Republicans...

    The Trump Card...

    That's true. Because the total Democratic money raised is spent for the benefit of the individual candidates, the purchasing power of those funds is diluted. That will change after a single candidate is nominated. At that point, we'll have a clearer view of the fundraising indicator. But again...

    More movement toward impeachment and removal: "Just over half of voters want President Trump impeached and removed from office, according to a Fox News Poll released Wednesday. (10/9/19) "A new high of 51 percent wants Trump impeached and removed from office, another 4 percent want him...

    The Trump Card...

    Because the way it was with Garland was unfair. Denying Obama's nominee a vote in the Senate was an unfair act of malfeasance on McConnell's part. It is an act that merits McConnell's removal from office in my opinion. Your complaint about Pelosi and Republican House member rights in the...

    The Trump Card...

    Trump clearly has strong fundraising capability but as I've said before, the candidate with the most money is not always the one who wins. Also note that Trump is the only serious Republican candidate raising money. If you compare his committee recent total to the combined total of the top 5...

    The Trump Card...

    Yes, and that's the way it is. The House elected its Speaker and vested certain powers in her. She is exercising those powers under the House rules. Had the American people not taken the House away from the Republican's in 2016 and given it to the Democrats, things would be different. Had the...
