The Repub concepts of "Russsiagate", "Collusion" and "Hoax" sure are flexible and come in handy for Trump and his Repub and Pro Repub Bothsider / Neithersider Cult Followers whenever they need them, aren't they?

Oh, the Complexities, Complexities, Complexities persist. So let's make it as simple as 1, 2, 3:

1. Trump publicly sides with Putin on election interference.
July 16, 2018.

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/...-summit-722418

President Donald Trump on Monday publicly sided with Russian President Vladimir Putin over his own intelligence agencies, refusing to condemn the Kremlin for interference in the 2016 election and saying that I dont see any reason why Russia would have hacked Democratic computer servers.

Trumps remarkable statements, during a joint news conference in Helsinki, Finland, after holding a two-hour one-on-one meeting with Putin, came after special counsel Robert Mueller indicted 12 Russians on Friday over allegations of involvement in the state-ordered election-interference operation.

2. (REPUB-Controlled) Senate panel finds Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. election.
Aug. 18, 2020.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politic...16-us-election

WASHINGTON (AP) The Trump campaigns interactions with Russian intelligence services during the 2016 presidential election posed a grave counterintelligence threat, a Senate panel concluded Tuesday as it detailed how associates of Donald Trump had regular contact with Russians and expected to benefit from the Kremlins help.

The nearly 1,000-page report, the fifth and final one from the Republican-led Senate intelligence committee on the Russia investigation, details how Russia launched an aggressive effort to interfere in the election on Trumps behalf. It says the Trump campaign chairman had regular contact with a Russian intelligence officer and says other Trump associates were eager to exploit the Kremlins aid, particularly by maximizing the impact of the disclosure of Democratic emails hacked by Russian intelligence officers.

3. Trump lawyers cite Russian interference he decried as a "hoax" as defense in D.C. criminal case.
Trump repeatedly rejected claims Russian interference in 2016. Now his attorneys are citing it in court filing.
Nov. 29, 2023.

https://www.salon.com/2023/11/29/law...criminal-case/

....
In a court filing this week, Trump's attorneys argued that the former president is not at fault because others believed the election may have been undermined. They asserted instead that Russian election interference in 2016, the same subversion that Trump often deems "the Russia hoax," was at least in some part to blame for the distrust of the 2020 election results.

Ah. That's better.

If you think promoting evil in this country makes a president great, well I believe that qualifies you as a full blown psychopath ala Mitt the Turd.

I'm guessing you would just say fuck "free trade" now that globalism is dying and just bring back good old fashioned slavery its more "cost efficient".

Word on the street is that this dood is a MAGA hating Libertarian.

"In his own state, major Repub money donors, the Kock Brothers, are throwing it to Nikki Haley.

I guess they aren't buying those over-sampled Repubs and Repubs Pretending To Be Independents poll numbers for Trump, after all.

Ttps: urlreplacement0}.

Those Repub Kock Brothers really have their work cut out for them. Yes, Haley trying to pawn herself off as merely a pro Repub "Bothsider" rather than a rabid Repub loon by taking all sides of every issue makes it easy for them to run ads of her taking the Dem side on issues in blue states and the Repub side of the same issues in red states.

However, there is that inconvenient historical fact that every true Repub will never forget or forgive her for; as Governor of South Carolina she removed their most cherished pro slavery racist symbol from her State House. And bragged about it!

They'll need to show ads of her giggling and personally pulling the lever on Old Sparky with a Willie Horton stand-in sitting strapped to it over and over again in red states to even hope to get past that one with the vast majority of Repub voters.

Cue the deflection non sequitur from some Winger rushing in with "Whatabout Newsom"? Or somebody else who isn't even a declared candidate or a Repub. LOL."

They'll need to show ads of her giggling and personally pulling the lever on Old Sparky with a Willie Horton stand-in sitting strapped to it over and over again in red states.

Like when Bubba rushed back to hillbilly land to sign the death warrant for a mentally ill prisoner in 1992 whilst he was on the campaign trail.

"The Republican House has done a great job in 2023. Remember the negotiations to raise the national debt ceiling back in May. The House Republicans managed to claw back $1. 5 trillion over 10 years from the $5 trillion+ in spending legislated by Biden and Democrats in 2021 and 2022. Chip Roy's problem is that he believes they should have clawed back more. Fair enough, but $1. 5 trillion is quite an accomplishment considering Democrats control the Senate and the Presidency.

I was watching CNBC last week, and Jared Bernstein, the chairman of President Biden's Council of Economic Advisors was expounding on the accomplishments of the President. Chief among them was saving $1 trillion through passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023! This is the money that the Republicans clawed back! In other words, Biden's economic advisor is taking credit for something that got passed only because Republicans threatened not to increase the debt limit. Democrats were shouting Armageddon and now they're taking credit for the legislation! Unbelievable!

Anyway, Bill Clinton and Barrack Obama might have been crappy ass presidents, if Republicans hadn't controlled the House during their second terms, and played a similar role to House Republicans this year. Instead, Clinton will go down in history as a very good president, having balanced the budget, passed welfare reform, promoted free trade, and cut the capital gains tax, all thanks to Republicans. Maybe House Republicans will also help President Biden preserve his legacy, after two years of crappy ass results with one party rule.

The main stream media can't say Blacks or Whites or Jews or Muslims are psychopaths. And heaven forbid that they'd call Democrats psychopaths. But it's fine to call Republicans psychopaths.

The articles quote a study that came out of that great bastion of higher learning, the University of Southern Mississippi. They conclude that "Republicans surveyed had a small but statistically significant higher level of psychopathic traits than Democrats. ".

Well, the problem is that they only surveyed 164 Democrats, 85 Republicans and 55 independents. Notice how closely that correlates with the make up of the American electorate. And actually they didn't conduct the survey but rather outsourced it to Amazon's Mechanical Turk crowdsourcing consultancy. Gallup they ain't.

Now, "about 1. 2% of USA Adult men and 0. 3% to 0. 7% of USA Adult women are considered to have clinically significant levels of psychopathic traits. " See.

https://www.apa.org/monitor/2022/03/...0%2 C%202020).

So among this sample of 304 people, being 157 females and 147 males, you'd expect to have 2 or 3 people who have clinically significant levels of psychopathic traits. How statistically significant is that? And somehow this study shows that Republicans have a "small but statistically significant higher level of psychopathic traits" than Democrats. I'm calling bull shit on this study, or rather the press' description of it. ".

The countdown begins for when Trump calls this guy a liar, traitor, Deep State, RINO, "I don't know him. Never heard of him".

10,9, 8, 7, etc.

Or has he already made that announcement?

Former Trump advisor says the U.S. economy is 'back to normal', but markets may be jumping the gun on rate hikes.
Nov. 29, 2023

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/29/form...ndroidappshare

Cohn who was chief economic advisor to former U.S. President Donald Trump from 2017 to 2018 does not see the Fed cutting interest rates until the second half of 2024.
Drawing on 100-year average data, Cohn said the U.S. economy is back to a normal, but we all forgot what normal is.
.....
"We havent seen normal for over two decades. We went through a decade plus of zero interest rates, we went through a decade of quantitative easing, zero interest rates and the Fed trying to see if they could create inflation," he said.

"Weve gone from the Fed not being able to create inflation we now know the answer, the Fed cant create inflation, but the market can to us trying to unwind a shorter term inflationary shock. Were back into a normal world."

He noted that the 100-year average for 10-year U.S. Treasury yields is around 4.5%, and that the 10-year yield has moderated from the 16-year high of 5% logged in October to around 4.3% as of Wednesday morning. Meanwhile, inflation is running back towards the mean of between 2% and 2.5%.

"So every piece of economic data, if you look, is sort of heading back towards its very long term average. If you look at these over 100-year generational cycles, we seem to be running into that phase right now," Cohn added.

Thanks, Joe, Nancy, Chuck and the Dems for shouldering all the heavy lifting and assuming all the political risk to produce this historic recovery from another historic Great Repub Economic Disaster.

Again. As usual.

Newsflash Tooms you aren't important enough to cherry pick. Since the summer I've been an infrequent visitor here. Your posts are usually so wordy and hyper partisan that I skip over them entirely or may scan them. Yea I thought I was quoting Sade, who I also usually don't read or just scan over. The approval poll numbers for Ron are pretty good for Florida given that we are a swing state. Comparing him to governors in friendlier environments drums up a host of logical fallacies, non-sequitur, cherry picking, bad analogy, and you just added one with the Chicken Little "tanking" characterization. Perfect. LOL You get the last word. I'm sorry to see that retirement in Thailand continues to be so boring.

7 hours of good sleep every night, 1 hour to exercise, shit, piss, shave and shower. That's only 8 hours out of every 24.

It doesn't take me more than 20 minutes per day to post anything that comes to mind on this entire website. It's very, very easy. After all, I have the facts on my side.

That leaves plenty of time to explore, recreate, eat food, eat pussy, fuck, get blown and have other adventures every day. Even while traveling.

You should try it sometime.

Republicans Have a Money Problem.
Nov. 27, 2023

https://www.newsweek.com/republicans...roblem-1847357

According to filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), the Republican Party had about $9.1 million in cash on hand as of October 31the lowest amount for the committee in any commission report since February 2015, read the report.

Democrats are holding onto almost double the amount of cash as Republicans. The Democratic National Committee reported that it had roughly $17.7 million at the end of October, according to the FEC.
.....
Sources who spoke with the Post said that both large- and small-scale GOP donors have cut back on funding the party in recent years for myriad reasons. Some said their reluctance to donate stems from RNC funding also being used to aid the reelection bid of former President Donald Trump, who substantially leads the GOP's primary race in preliminary polls. Others told the outlet that donors are frustrated with the leadership of McDaniel, who has faced increased pressure from members of her party
as Republicans continue to get smacked by disappointing election outcomes.

Or, as Bill Maher spins it, "Why Trump keeps WINNING"! Lolol.

Donald Trump, the GOP's Golden Goose of dumb Repub hillbilly entitlement checks donation Golden GOP Eggs needs to ramp up his whinng, crying and Poor Me pitch with those dumb Repub hillbillies so they can keep those essential Willie Horton-type GOP ads running for the next 11 months.
