America Is Under Attack and the President Doesn't Care

I would suggest that Trump set aside what he perceives to be a threat to his personal legitimacy and act in the interest of the country by addressing their interference as a general threat to our system, which it is.

And don't worry about me wasting my time - I have the time to waste.  You, on the other hand are free to conserve your time by ignoring my posts as you see fit.

You - and your posse's - denial is fascinating.  If Obama had behaved this way, ya'll would be marching on the white house with torches and a rope.  You know that's true.

The so-called conservatives on this site don’t care. Their only principles are trying to irrritate “libbies” and keeping non-white foreigners out. 

Well, speaking only for myself, I must admit you were half right. But don't act undeserving.

Perhaps you are overly-tuned to the relatively passive racism so common to today's "conservatism

Gosh I sure hope the democratic party follows suit. Y'all keep playing identity politics and maintain that sacred creed of political correctness. Shout racism, actual or perceived, every chance you get. Actually, keep shouting institutional racism also, irrespective of the absence of racist laws. Keep finding those isolated quotes from low-level republicans so you can justify the characterization of the republican party as a whole. Oh, how I beg. 

It's exactly the BS whining that America is sick of.

It is incredibly relevant because had she won, you wouldn't even dare to open your mouth about her obvious treasonous activity all over the world.

Had she won, would  you be complaining about Saudi Arabia buying away your government with all the money they gave her to do their bidding? 

She didn’t  win. She lost. And the moron that is POTUS now is the one I’m taking issue with. 

You can come up with all the hypothetical “ifs” you’d like but they are irrelevant because she is not POTUS. What is relevant though is how clearly she lives in Trump and his supporter’s heads. But I guess there is lots of vacant space there.

Thief, hell!  

A few years back I was known as a prominent member of the "liberal posse" - a term assigned by one of the prominent right-wingers to a core group of us.  Later, it became the "sewing circle".  Granted, I didn't author either term.

And if you’d watch any other media in the world besides FOX you’d see the circus that is the WH. 

Hope Hicks admitted to telling “white lies” for POTUS. Then she resigned. 

Mueller is looking into Trump’s Russia pageant connections.

Jared Kushners security clearance got downgraded and their are reports of 4 countries discussing how to manipulate him through inexperience and financial desperation.

Thirty WH staffers don’t have security clearance. 

POTUS is attacking Jeff Sessions via Twitter.

Are you smarter than President Trump? If I needed someone to negotiate on my behalf, be it business or personal matters pertaining to whatever, would you recommend I chose POTUS or yourself?

So negotiating skill is a good measure of intelligence?  If that's the case, MIT needs to quit looking at high school grads and fill slots with some street hustlers and flea market dealers.

The ability to negotiate effectively - sure it is (especially the ability to negotiate multi-million dollar transactions). Business schools teach it. Law schools teach it. Hell doctors have to do it. The intelligence of one in a respective field is often marked by an ability to negotiate effectively. And no, I am not referencing the most peasant, unrelated negotiations that you create in your mind. Think more about "complexity." If you want to stretch the application of what I say in such an incompetent fashion, marked by clearly unintended examples, then go ahead. You're smarter than that though.

Hope Hicks admitted to telling “white lies” for POTUS. Then she resigned. ---Baloney. The little white lies bit was fake news and all the libs fell for it. Truth is she said several months ago she was looking at a good time to leave. She has been working long hours for two years and that grinds anyone down.

Mueller is looking into Trump’s Russia pageant connections........wonder if he will look into Hillary's doings?

Jared Kushners security clearance got downgraded and their are reports of 4 countries discussing how to manipulate him through inexperience and financial desperation.----link for your "reports?"  As I understand it Kushner only lost his Top Secret clearance. That is not unusual because it requires need to know. I once had a Top Secret clearance also and when I no longer had a need to know in this case I dropped back to a Confidential clearance.

Thirty WH staffers don’t have security clearance. -----because they don't need one.

POTUS is attacking Jeff Sessions via Twitter. ----good and he isn't by himself. Even his long time friend and fellow Senator (Shelby) expressed his concern in a TV interview yesterday.I know Jeff but and thought he would be a good AG but I am disappointed in his performance so far. As I posted earlier having the DOJ IG do the FISA investigation is ridiculous. The IG had little power and in most cases is the fox guarding the hen house. I think Jeff is just over his head as AG and is trying to manage things from the top rather than draining the swamp left by the previous administration. I thing the best thing right now is for Trump to fire Rosenstein and Jeff resign.

Jeff Sessions has actually surprised me with how much he tries to handle these issues with integrity and keep things above board.

That's pretty weak Salty.   

According to the right wingers at the time (you weren't here) I was one of the charter members of the (liberal) posse.  Does "charter member" sound better than prominent?  

And it's not a boast.  It wasn't me who made it up, it was butt hurt conservatives, like yourself.

Not to mention the irony of you calling me a "thief" for using a word you apparently think you own.  Now that's narcissism.

Yep, but he decided to team up with Trump and is paying the price.

Right.  Because Trump doesn't want an impartial AG trying to follow the law.  He wants someone who's in his corner.

I just love your little hypotheticals. Let’s turn this around shall we? Let’s say you need open heart surgery. Who do you want to do your surgery, a cardiothoracic surgeon or Donald Trump? Of course if you have any semblance of a brain you’re going to choose a surgeon. Trump is inept at being a president  just like he would be inept at performing your open heart surgery. Every time he speaks, he proves this. As an example, yesterday he said, “Take the guns first, go through due process second.”  This clearly demonstrates that he has limited knowledge of the 14th amendment. I’m not really sorry if it offends you that I think a POTUS should, at the very least, have a working knowledge of the constitution that he pledged to defend.  So it really isn’t about me being or not being smarter than Trump; it is about him being intelligent enough to do the job he was elected to do. And quite frankly, he doesn’t measure up.

Glad to be of help in your education

But I will keep trying since you don't seem to know the difference between a rebuttal and a fact. Is anything I said not factual?

When will Mueller investigate Hillary’s wrongdoings? 

My guess is if there is evidence of a crime. 

I’d also like to point out the irony here of you accusing me of a nice dodge when rather than address Muelker’s investigation into Trump, you bring up Hillary. That is the go to dodge of the right.

That was only part of my overall question. I made a lengthy response in red to one of your posts. You responded that it's just a rebuttal using FOX. I asked you what did I say that isn't factual?

I will add there is just as much evidence of a possible crime in Hillary's case as there was to start the Mueller investigation into collusion. A LOT more IMHO.
