You cannot inaccurately cite the NYT in one instance, then call it “Fake News” in another. The same thing goes for the CBO

He wrote a great book on Trump many years ago and was sued. Yet his book remains a classic Trump Nation Thank you Mr. O’Brien.

Wasn’t there a 15 million dollar penthouse purchased with a Chinese connection?

Chinese business consultant buys $16 million Trump penthouse

Manhattan socialite touts her company’s access to influence in China

President Donald Trump’s real estate company has closed on one of its first big deals since his inauguration — selling a Manhattan penthouse to the owner of a Chinese business consultancy for nearly $16 million.

Trump Park Avenue, LLC, which operates a posh condominium on Upper East Side of Manhattan, sold the three-bedroom penthouse last week to Angela Chen, a New York socialite and founder of Global Alliance Associates, according to property records.

Agree, but if they’re talking about the server story then it’s Breitbart, I think. CNN was reporting this last week. That a Breitbart story from months ago was the source for the specious claim about Obama and all that deep state nonsense.

Period!
That’s it!
President has made it very clear!
I’ve been very clear!

Why they are still treating the Spice “briefing” as if a normal one is beyond me… (smh)

Aren’t forgiven debts taxed as income? I’m sure not, in this case.

The merriment and joy over the “hilarious” quote about how jobs numbers are totally real now when they were fake for forever before was really disgusting. We are never going to get out of this mess unless they start doing their job and stop kissing ass.

The president uses invisible “air quotes” in his tweets that he makes with his fingers as he’s typing with his thumbs. The president is really just a rich, mean 8th grade girl from the '80s–but with a smart phone.

I think we have known all along that Trump pulled this wiretapping claim out of his ass. Whether he did it because he was high on coke or was responding from something he read in Breitbart is unknowable. What we do know is he wanted to change the subject and did. Now can we get back to the main story concerning the Russian connection.

  1. Enough with the “good try” bullshit. Condescending, unprofessional and a nearly transparent admission that you’re hiding something.

  2. Is Spicer even prepping for these wastes of time? His answers are all along the lines of, “My big orange dog ate my homework.”

They’ll be bugging that property to the hilt, if they haven’t already. Guaranteed.
