The Whiner-in-Chief is back on Twitter this morning, crying about "the haters"




I don't know Putin, have no deals in Russia, and the haters are going crazy - yet Obama can make a deal with Iran, #1 in terror, no problem!


The first two statements in that self-pitying sentence have been disproved countless times, the first part with Trump's own words years ago about knowing Putin, the second with lots of news about his Russian deals, and his oldest son's own words.

But what is Trump getting or hoping to get with his Putin/Russian lovefest except for business opportunities benefiting Exxon plus possible financial windfalls benefiting Trump. He has failed to explain what US achieves by lifting sanctions against Russia, besides a few fat cats like him making millions while evading taxes.

If financial deals benefiting him from his coziness with Russia are revealed, he would just say he was being a smart businessman.

It is not right, it is not presidential behavior and demeanor, surely you would think most republicans might want to get him out of there.

But I agree in principle with a button I heard Fugelsang mention, with the words "Impeach Pence First". Pence is not the loose cannon orange guy is, but he is a religious fanatic right down to the core.

You wonder how it will all turn out going forward......will this cluster you know what jar a critical mass of Fox News devotees out of their Fox induced fact free trance?

Succeeded in getting that Iran deal with the rest of the P5 plus 1. It also genuinely made Iran developing a nuclear weapon impossible without being detected. The complaint with Trump is the fear that he gives up the sanctions put on Russia in concert with the EU for nothing - encouraging Russia in its bad actions.

I think he's still smarting because more people watched President Obama's pre-Super Bowl interview than Dipshit Donny's.

Keep up the good work!

This is history repeating itself. We've seen this before, from a distance, and always assumed it couldn't happen here. I would hope that our system would be enough to protect us from the worst. But I don't know...Customs and Border Patrol are IGNORING the court orders and those (and the police and military) are the ones we have to fear the most. What it Trump ignores all the court rulings against him and orders those agencies to turn on protesters or marchers? What if he turns them into his very own SS or Gestapo? I hope I am being needlessly alarmist. And I hope the Republican leadership develops a spine against him. They are the only one that can do anything at this point.

in the final analysis it is the people who have the power - we must wield it. resist to the end. this is where my hope lies.

He's mentally unstable. Dontcha LOVE how they are suddenly going on about haters After running the meanest campaign in the history of modern politics, they want to whine that people are mean to them. They weaponize their racist troll army with fake news and then become delicate little snowflakes when they get gently trolled back? After what HE did to Obama, pursuing him with false birth certificate accusations for YEARS, he wants to talk mean? How rich is that? Oh well, we always knew they could dish but not take. They are bullies. That's their MO.

It was their money. We quarantined those assets in US banks as a sanction. It wasn't even money on which we could have refused payment. It was always their money and we just agreed to give them back what was already their property, as long as they played ball.

To me, that's even beyond your description, because in their world, one can imagine someone saying, "Well, we should have just not payed them." But, not giving them back their own cash would be stealing. So what we did was NOT steal it.

Trumpy is only a SYMPTOM of the problem. He's just a result of the WANTON ignorance of those that cling to handing off the woes of their daily lives to imagined deities. If our species ever survives long enough to come to terms with their own mortality - their own fallibility and who's really at fault when they're scammed - we'll be able to move forward in a cohesive, all-serving fashion. That awakening, that destination, seems pretty unlikely at this point.

the reason I ask is my neighbor says the same thing.

My neighbor is one of those christians who will search for days to find a passage in the bible that allows him to do whatever SHIT he is going to do anyway. No matter how much he's fucking someone else he believes he's headed skyward. I tell him even though I'm atheist I have a better chance of getting to his heaven than he does.

Especially because one of the countries is PUTIN'S RUSSIA! Wonder if BFF Putin approves or even scripts Trump's tweets?
