Now Kellyanne should know shouldn't she? Being in the loop and close to the prez and a good Trumpican 24/7 why would she spill the beans and give us fodder if she didn't want us to know? How stupid do you think she is? She wanted that out there because anytime anyone tells a lie we know it is an ALTERNATIVE FACT and that makes it okay. Pointing out lies (alternative facts) makes some folks crazy. So crazy they say batty things to justify it. Hey they can say whatever they want but ALTERNATIVE FACTS is a trademark of the Trumpican party and always will be. "Here lies the gal who told us about ALTERNATIVE FACTS". Kellyanne's headstone. "Here lies the guy whose entire life ws based on ALTERNATIVE FACTS". The donjohn's headstone. And so it goes. less

And others as well. But his base LOVES the rant tweets and tweet rants though they are always repetitious and keep going over the same terrain they lap it up. He performs for THEM at the cost of his own safety and security. Let the show go on! There's no business like show business! Make 'em laugh! Give 'em what they want. Keep 'em happy. I wonder if donjohn knows it ain't workin' for him? less

Who in good conscience could bring up these scams in meetings with your fellow executives? Or what about credit card companies that offer worthless perks like free "nights" in hotels that do not really mean you get to stay in a hotel for one night free? Wouldn't you be ashamed to come up with ways to cheat the public out of their money dishonestly? Aren't they ashamed of themselves? What kind of a crazy world is this? less

How does donjohn trash him and ruin him? I doubt that McGahn will lie about anything at all. I expect he will answer fully and truthfully and tell Mueller EVERYTHING HE KNOWS. What does he know? D'ya know?

For example.No one ever in any political party took a meeting with the representative of a foreign country to get dirt on the opposition. If Russia or Iran or China contacted anyone in either party the immediate response would be to CALL THE FBI and let them follow up on it and handle it. That was the way it always was.During the campaign when Al Gore was running for prez someone from Austin, Texas sent them a "Republican Playbook" and a tape of a planning meeting. Gore immediately called the FBI and turned over the items to them. Reading it and using it against the Republicans was not done and ALSO would not have been done by REPUBLICANS getting inside info on Dems either. Ethics mattered even though there were bitter divides between the parties. But there was a line that NO ONE EVER CROSSED until the don appeared and then all lines wer... less
Others drown. Of course he is entirely responsible for abandoning them. Are there consequeces/penalties/punishment that accrue to him and are enacted or does he skate?

Everything else that may exist outside is of no value and is there to trick them. So they happily stay within echochamberland and cling to one another therein and are happy as clams at high tide. Safely secure in a "good" environment that will not pollute their brains with, well, contradictory ideas/views/beliefs/thoughts. The echochamber dwellers need never fear hearing information that will contradict/challenge what echochamber controllers tell them. It is forbidden. less

That way you can maintain loyalty and confidence and never have to worry your pretty little head about anything. Just do what you are told, believe what you hear from the ultimate source of your views/beliefs and pass it on. Simple way to go through life isn't it?

They are opportunists who seek a place to satisfy their deviant perverted lusts. They could be camp counselors or teachers or doctors or coaches or a friendly neighbor or a too-friendly family member. All those places have folks who will coverup, look the other way, protect the institution rather than protect the children. Children you see are expendable. Reputations of institutions must be protected at all costs no matter who gets sacrificed on what altar. Sad that the sacrificial lambs are always the innocent, the vulnerable, the trusting, the powerless. Isn't it? Any place that children gather and sexually deviant PERVERTS can be they will be. The church has been known for protecting its own and saying nothing and just moving these sexually deviant PERVERTS from church to church to church to church spreading the evil about evenly. What should become of them? What shoul... less

So are his supporters. Some may be "of color" but they are all nationalists. The don DEFENDED them when they marched at Charlottesville. So what's really going on here? Superficially surfacely it makes no sense at all whatsoever. Underneath the surface what's happening to cause such a weird contradictory action?

Were they allowed, for ulterior reasons, into lawful existence to specifically upset and supersede the basic democratic principle? How does that benefit the lawmakers who promoted it?
Their operating methods and limits of action seem to be governed more by self-determined rules, policies and guidelines rather than being properly controlled by strong laws imposed by government to the benefit of all.
If you could affect the situation, would you be in favour of Super PACs and paid lobbyists being able to influence government or against? less
