Trump's America

Nestlé tried to build a bottling plant in Oregon a few years back and got repudiated by the local government (and people).

The people repudiated it here too, but gerrymandering has put the entire state government into the hands of the GOP, so guess who won?

Same happened in upstate NY.

Prim, I still got a couple of formula bottles etc when checking out of the hospital. But the nurses and everyone were totally on board with breast feeding so I’m hoping those formula bottles have less influence.

New York Magazine wonders if Trump has been a Russian asset since 1987, and lays out most of the case for collusion in the process:

Whatever you think about their conclusions, you don't often see original research and reporting of this caliber anymore.

I think all the people accusing Trump of treason for talking to Putin are very entertaining.

A populist Democrat from Manhattan gets elected as a Republican and everyone loses their mind.

Trump just all-caps tweeted at Rouhani (but not @Rouhani), just about midnight East Coast time.

To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!

I was actually coming here to post that, but I was going to post in a new thread entitled, "This Is Truly Scary." I'm not sure what more than that I can say, other than to question whether the United States deserves whatever it gets for electing an unstable megalomaniac president.

[yovargas]

Did Iran do something to bring on that reply?

[River]

They set him up with that Playboy model.

Just kidding. I think.

Trump was responding to Iranian President Rouhani stating "America must understand well that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace and war with Iran is the mother of all wars."

Collusion in plain sight.

Yeah, that thread sounds like a really good idea right now.

NEW: Russian hackers have penetrated U.S. electric utilities and are positioning themselves for an attack, reports @SmithRebecca https://t.co/DwXwBCzvy0 via @WSJ

Arguably, it is implied in the current thread title.

[Frelga]

Trump just now.



I hope this means GOP is ready to release the money to secure the election process.

[Voronwë the Faithful]

That went hand in hand with Giuliani saying that Trump would agree to do an interview with Mueller so long as there was no questions about objection of justice.

(Do you know that your attachments in this thread and in the Russian investigation thread are very large and stretching the page?)

[Frelga]

Oops, no, I didn't. It looks fine in Tapatalk. Want me to edit it out?

[RoseMorninStar]

That text is just.. unreal Frelga. If people believe that I have some oceanfront property to sell them.

[Primula Baggins]

If people CAN believe that, after Trump's performance in Helsinki, they'll buy your property, Rose.

** counting my rubles, I mean, dollars**

[Frelga]

There's a bridge across Moscow River I can sell you.
