Discussion: Read: Putin's Christmas Letter To Donald Trump

You know, whether Putin has compromising information on Trump or not, to be honest he never needed it. All he needed was to realize that being a big rich international tough guy, if he was simply vaguely complimentary Trump would tumble swooningly into his lap.

I really do think Ryan, McConnell et al. are going to find at some point that a mentally ill President is a common problem no matter how much of a personal and partisan advantage if offers. SMH

R&H excelled at memorable lyrics and music in everything they produced, but I think South Pacific may be the best. My mother would sing or hum Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, even older than this song.

Someone had a clip of a woman in KY, my state, who said that very thingā€¦ā€œI didnā€™t think heā€™d really take away our insuranceā€¦ā€ As if she didnā€™t hear our recently elected asshole Gov. rant about that during his campaign too. Geez, these people are bull headed.

My personal favorite moran is the woman in FL who said she hoped she wouldnā€™t lose the coverage she really, really needed for Crohnā€™s disease, a terrible and painful digestive tract condition, and she had voted for him

Like a fucking fiddle.

Wanna guess which phrase Trump has read more than 100 times already? Yep: ā€œHis Excellencyā€.

Putinā€™s bow is freshly rosined and the strings of Trumpā€™s narcissism are vibrating like a a rabbit on high.

Another female Trump voter said her husband is waiting for a life-saving liver transplant which would be covered by, you guessed it, Obamacare.

Iā€™m in the UK for my winter break, visiting my sister in Wales.
I am reminded of the people who voted for Brexit believing the promise of Farage that NHS moneys would not be affected.

I believe it is unpresidented in my lifetime. Which dates back to the mid 50s. I also do not remember a yet to be sworn in President elect being such a Drama Queen Exhibitionist between the election and the inauguration. The Reality TV president.

Hah, reminds me of an alleged encounter between President Hoover and Sec. of Treasury Mellon. Hoover asked to borrow a nickel to call a friend, and Mellon replied, ā€œHereā€™s a dime; call both of them.ā€

They arenā€™t really needed anymore.

The moment when reporters (such as Farenthold) had to start digging for financial info, is when Trump lost the narrative about how the returns werenā€™t important.

Now it would be nice to see em and compare them to other Trump financial disclosures. As of now though, nope.

Not when he canā€™t stop bragging about stuff that he should be quiet about.

This stuff just makes my hair hurt. People are so stupid sometimes. When someone tells you they intend to take away your mechanism for getting health insurance, itā€™s just prudent to believe them.

In many ways itā€™s fascinating to me how Russia, which was basically drifting into becoming an irrelevant nobody (itā€™s economy is barely in the top 10 economies in the world and slightly larger than New York Cityā€™s and much smaller than Californiaā€™s) has been raised up to an equivalent power thanks to Trump, and his inability to deal with Putinā€™s nonsense.

That ā€œsome pointā€ should have already been behind them, shouldnā€™t it? Iā€™m not hopeful about those two greedy power-mongering morons.
