Discussion: Trump Directs His Ire At Coats, But Knows Consequences Of Ousting DNI

Two reasons not to engage them:

  1. they won’t/can’t listen,
    2)I get so angry I’m in real danger of punching someone.

So maybe I’ll go register some people to vote. If they’re not registered, they couldn’t have voted for Trump, amirite?

That’s my feeling. No quarter to fascists.

I feel that way at least once a day. I am so sorry I’m an old woman and not a young man right now.

One more inflection point sir; 2006 mid-terms, when we flipped the Senate around the Iraq fiasco and began the public accountability of the Neo-con era Bushies.

Certainly I haven’t either. Or last time. But if we all had done enough we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

Maybe.

Putin was a real factor in that election and that’s why I think it is an anomaly, not a reflection of where we are.

It’s hard to engage in a firefight while you are dragging an oxygen tank behind you.

Coats is the very definition of establishment respectability. Once the Trumpites go after him they effectively cut themselves off from the rank and file backbone of the party. The scurvy carnies who show up at Trump’s rallies aren’t capable of organizing the proverbial two car parade. They’re just looking for a sugar high rage burst to supplement their meth habit.

Yes, we all need to get out the Dem vote! I’m determined to help flip the congressional seat in my district.

Rachel laid it all out last night: after Trump campaign had Clinton’s analytics, they drastically changed their strategy, taking money from elsewhere and putting into Wisconsin, Michigan, etc. I think Russia was much more of a factor and god almighty, can we not hear another word about the poor/anxious/bigoted/ who cares/ Trump voter?

That possibility is astrally remote. If Trump were removed from office, there might be a few random incidents. But the idea that America’s gun owners will rise up and start killing people wholesale is totally fanciful. That would take organization, training, and conviction they don’t have. They want to yell at the TV. But they don’t want the consequences of shooting their neighbors. That seems clear. They’re assholes, not killers.

Just have a cable channel broadcast free porn, and it won’t be a problem.

Cadet Bone Spurs could simply name his current Presidential Advisor for Cyber-security, Barron Trump, to Director of National Intelligence. Et voilà, problem solved!

And, of course, he could always go to Jared.

What can he really control? his rallies, his twitter feed. The WH looks to be out of control. The swinging door of the personnel office keeps changing the staff. Even Fox news is apparently partially out of his control since Helsinki.

My new icon is 86/45. Not impeachment, he is not worth the trouble but a forced resignation would be nice.
