The last presidential election proved the polls mean absolutely nothing.

Then why does this President tweet about the results so often?

Yeah, just about every week on the 538 podcast they cover that people who think that have no clue as to what polls mean. They aren’t guarantees. Does somebody think they are guarantees? That person is dumb.

I like how Trump celebrates polls that still indicate that over half the country still hates his ass LOL

We can all agree Trump loves to troll. Dems keep taking the bait.

That may be part of it, but it’s clear that the man only like to hear good things similar to how he had the tallest building in NY post 9-11, or about how the Bob Woodward book is going to be all fake despite having taped sources. Only thing I’m waiting to see is for him to put out how Poligrip is better than Fixodent.

He’s an egomaniac no doubt. That’s the kind of mindset required for the job. You think Obama wasn’t feeling himself when no one was looking? Trump just doesn’t hide it like the rest of these scumbag politicians.

Feeling yourself for no good reason ought to be grounds for indecent exposure.

Trump rolls full Emperor’s New.

Trump’s stump would get him a hard pass on that, I suppose.

Even in the media.

Digital cameras only have so much resolution for magnification to be useful.

Was it the speech to the Boy Scouts where he talked about his dick size? I can’t remember. It’s hard to keep all the crazy straight.

Sorry, I forget it’s not that he’s a psycho crazy as the Republicans tell us, it’s that he’s “trolling”, an excuse for all evils. O_o

… everybody who has dealt with him says that’s he’s an narcissistic idiot. I’m probably dumb for listening to Republicans, though. They definitely have a bias against him. Truth isn’t the truth. What you see and hear isn’t real. Fake news. It’s not a cult, it’s just a woke view of the world.

They’re all evil. You don’t get to that level unless you’re a narcissistic asshole. Trump is one of the few who doesn’t hide it.

That one word is the quality that separates Donald Trump from the rest of the pack.

If you think politicians are good people you are delusional

I quoted the line that was relevant. I do not disagree that politicians have motives that are ultimately self serving or cater to a certain benefactor. There is a certain narcissistic quality that makes a person want to get into that line of work. Which is why I emboldened the single word and stated it the quality that sets him apart. I think most politicians start out wanting to do the right thing, but by the time they get higher on the totem pole, it gets lost. This guy in the White House seems to have done it because someone made one too many jokes at an event and ego drove his will.

Seriously the republican party have lost their backbones and decided that the nra runs the country

Trump is worse for diplomacy

He has been bad for the country

Supporting trump because “he is a gaping asshole” in public is nonsense

Manafort is going to plead guilty in the second set of Mueller charges. Hearing is today. Not sure if he’s going to flip yet.

Edit: He’s going to cooperate with Mueller as part of the deal.

News corporations are not just reporting the facts, they are sensationalizing everything in desperate attempt for viewers at the expense of the American people. It’s no coincidence that polarization levels are at maximum while TV is dying.

Also, making progress on North Korea for the first time in decades is bad diplomacy?

Uh… What the hell? You know any more details why?

I just read this article-

People are speculating the observatory was used to spy on WSMR and Holloman AFB, and send info through the local post office. FBI haven’t offered any info and deny even being there.

I hadn’t heard anything at WSMR about it until now.

Allegedly 6 more observatories have been closed in the past week, ranging from chile to certain places in Europe. Who knows there.

Hypothesis on closer range from chinese spies to the world ending to other random stuff. Anybody’s guess is as good as any.

you wanna go visit Sun Spot on the weekend?
