Any Word Yet?

Hey, GOP, any word yet?

Trump accused Barack Obama of spying on him by “tapping his wires”. That’s a serious charge – a felony. In addition, he accused our allies in the UK of being part of this criminal activity.

Any word yet on when the facts supporting that allegation will be disclosed? Hard to believe that we haven’t heard anything further on this important matter.

Trump handed over classified information to the Russians in the Oval Office. Any word yet on how that was in the best interest of our country, and not another example of collusion with our enemies?

Trump said he’d appoint the “best people” to his administration. So far, a lot of those “best people” people have been fired or forced to resign in disgrace. Any word yet on when the real “best people” will be showing up?

Trump keeps saying that his administration runs “like a well-oiled machine” – and yet that machine seems to break down on a daily basis, requiring major overhauls. Any word yet on when the machine will actually start operating smoothly?

Trump bragged on the campaign trail about how, if elected, he would be too busy working for the American people to play golf. Any word yet on when he’ll be too busy to stop hitting the links on a weekly basis?

Candidate Trump promised his supporters that he would “always tell the truth” – and yet he’s been proven to have told literally hundreds of lies since being sworn-in. Any word yet on when this whole “truthfulness” thing is going to kick-in?

Despite every US intelligence agency confirming that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election, Trump continues to insist that it’s a “hoax” and a “witch-hunt”. Any word yet on when Trump is going to concede that maybe – just maybe – the highly professional, well-trained members of the IC know more than he does? In the alternative, any word yet on the evidence Trump has gathered to disprove any alleged Russian interference?

Trump has NEVER said a negative thing about Putin, and has NEVER passed up an opportunity to praise him. Any word yet on why he consistently takes the side of our enemy, while dismissing our own intelligence agencies?

Trump claims he has no ties to Russia. Any word yet on why he steadfastly refuses to cooperate with investigations that could actually prove that no such ties exist?

Just in the past week alone, Trump has claimed he received glowing, congratulatory phone calls from the president of Mexico and the Boy Scouts of America – calls that have been denied by the people alleged to have made those phone calls. Any word yet on why Trump feels a need to repeatedly makes things up? Any word yet on why he “hears” phone conversations in his head that never occurred?

Trump has thrown some of his staunchest supporters, e.g. Jeff Sessions, under the bus. Any word yet on why Trump feels it is appropriate to demand “loyalty” from others, but has no loyalty to anyone other than himself?

Trump is a self-proclaimed “pussy-grabber” who has demeaned women, mocked the disabled, labelled Mexicans as drug-dealing rapists, Muslims as terrorists, and blacks as inherently lazy. Any word yet on how that behaviour serves the American people, or represents the “Christian values” that so-called “Christian leaders” have attributed to him?

Trump promised a healthcare program that would be cheaper than Obamacare, and would cover “everybody”. Any word yet on when that program is going to materialize?

There are just so many questions about the reasoning behind Trump’s actions, his words, his statements – and his many lies.

Any word yet on when ANY of those questions will be answered?

not until Dipshit Donnie finds those missing 30k missing e-mails he was bitching about last night.

What a loser.

I'll say it again, what Trump said about shooting someone on 5th Avenue is the truest thing he ever said (yet his supporters weren't insulted by his remark).

If they claim the returns are still "under audit by the IRS", then which years are under audit?

Lying liars have been known to lie.

A. doesn't believe anything negative said about him...."fake news"

B. like his behaviour.

C. don't care because their blind hatred of liberal and "others" is what's most important

The others in the GOP are just craven opportunist.

... someone with a sub-par IQ to begin with, has probably always been dyslexic, is beset by the scars of parents who despised him and sent him off to military school, and who is now further addled by onset of Alzheimer's! On the other hand, he is a major asshole who deserves all this and prison, too. But his Repuke political supporters know as much--they have NO excuses, but greed and ambition, and the rest are too stupid to be voting!

republicans, on the other hand, have got a weird kink about lies. They are eagerly anticipating the degenerate thrill of the next massive falsehood spew from Comrade Casino, their ignoble Draft-Dodger-in-Chief.
