Trump’s White House Resembles The Most Corrupt Nations In The World

Your side lost. Don't you think it's time to put the past in the past and take a look at why your side lost?

Name calling is not going is not going to get the job done in '18 or '20. Better ideas might help.

Your side. The tribes are alive with bitterness and hate

Everything is divided along political lines, nothing is ever forgotten, nor excused.

Now you drive a bigger wedge into that madness by basically telling your fellow Americans to shut the **** up because they "lost" even though the worst candidate in history got more votes.

That is the kind of smug superiority that makes enemies. And that's all I see in America, enemies squared off against each other based on what you've been fed through the propaganda machines.

I have not heard anyone ask "is this good for our country?", just constant bickering. The right is by far the greater offender, as they whined the loudest at every damn thing Obama did....and now you want to bully them into not sharing their views as in "we won, you lost, shut up". Two months after the factyou are still whining about being stopped in the courts....seriously? YOU want a dictator?

And then both sides bitch and whine and complain that 'nothing gets done"

And the reason is they have you by the balls and like Pavlov's dogs you salivate over the idea of beating the other side, ignoring what is best for the country; no one is at all interested in that, just jamming something up the ass of the other guy, not really a nation but collection of hate.

I think, sir, you missed my entire point.

Been paying attention. Trump is by no means a dictator by any measure of the word.

Maybe you should stay off of far left crackpot sites?

GOPartisans would have been fine with Chelsea and husband doing what Ivanka and husband are doing .

Though GOPartisans publicly complain about liberal media, they are reading these articles and direct quotes so they can figure out their TPs.

I don't know their right-wing sources as well as they do, but I have been reading more of them lately, to see how their spinners are defending trump.

Whether it's print or cable, it was priceless to see/hear Limbaugh criticize trump on the wall .

I never said it justifies it.

I'm just wondering why it's suddenly an issue.

ahh. Okay. But as I recall it was an issue with Clinton. I seem to remember a lot of people complaining that she was given a mandate to overhaul healthcare with the benefit of being elected or confirmed to any post.

I said wants to be, not that he is. Maybe you should pay attention to how he acts and who he likes.

OK. Fair enough, although I don't think you are accurate, but be that as it may.

I'm watching how he acts and who he likes. I'm also watch the the lame stream media and other hyperventilating leftist's smear machine in action as well.

Maybe that's something you might consider keeping an eye out for as well, if we are trading friendly advice on a friendly basis.

Cheers!

There's a reason I'm yawning...this is a big nothingburger.

But it's all the left and the Trump-haters have.

Seems to be more often the case with calamity's thread.

This article is somewhat nonsensical.

Nepotism is a fact of life. We seen if with JFK when he appointed his brother as AG or when Bill Clinton appointed his wife to lead healthcare reform.

Nepotism is a reward for successful people. Is it fair? Hardly but it will never go away and it shouldn't.

What?

Uh. Yeah.

It ****ing should.

Yes, those were the Republican complaints at the time. The dems, however, were silent. The Republicans also conveniently forgot the Kennedys when nominating W.

In the world of American politics, there is no high ground. Everybody is pretty much terrible, most of the time.

Because it was accepted through the entire clinton presidency, and was acceptable until november 2016 when nepotist monarchy lost, then at that moment it became unacceptable.

It is like stealing a candy bar, than accusing another person of stealing a candybar, and when caught and called out telling the other thief two wrongs do not make a right. Might as well say it's fine when I do it but wrong when you do the same.
