Does the United States regularly give security clearances to LIARS? Should we? Why?

Then whenothers recounted the meeting and it didn't track with what Junior said Don Trump Jr. CHANGED his story. Second one was about a Russian who said there was damaging information about Hillary Clinton that she had available. Also at that meeting was Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner. Now damaging info about Hillary would certainly be of interest to Manafort and Kushner. Adoption of Russian children by Americans? Seriously? Don Trump Jr. said that it was apparent the Russian woman had nothing at all regarding Clinton and changed the subject to adoption. Don Trump Jr. said it was probably a ruse to get the meeting. Is Don Trump Jr. a believable source? Paul Manafort? Jared Kushner? I expect there will be another "undisclosed" meeting uncovered. Each disclosure seems worser so I expect worser still is coming at us. Any guess on what the next worser will be about? Oh. That meeting was he... less

How angry would a prez get and what revenge would he seek to get back at the ones who went against his wishes? Any prez ever try to VETO an override?

Of course Trump knows nothing about that and would deny it and ask for proof and call it fake news. Trump is such a good foil for Putin. They make a great team. Abbott and Costello. Martin and Lewis. Bert & Ernie. Dumb and Dumber. Puppet Master and Puppet. Desi and Lucy. Jackie Gleason and Art Carney. Burns & Allen. Are you laughing yet? and Puppet. Punch and Judy. Desi and Lucy.

But when he does it while away from home in a foreign land it is much worse. The Donald is a much worse prez. He doesn't have the common sense to understand that. Why?

Wouldn't that be a kick in the head? After all the years of moaning and kvetching and groaning and complaining and empty promising and symbolically repealing the AHCA 60 times or more at what cost to we the people they finally admit the job can only get done when all participate, get off their high horses of political posturing and get to work? IMAGINE THAT? less
