"I'm not going to talk about that"

This has become the pattern when this idiot tweets something crazy and outrageous and a reporter asks him about his tweet.

And he gets away with it.

Liberals are the real racist

"Because the Civil War was started by Democrats who didn't like a Republican President. And the KKK was started by Democrats."

I hear conservatives making this stupid argument all the time as if the Democrats of that day were liberal. They like to pretend that both parties ideologies have not changed 180 degrees. But what I find even more funny is the same person who like to claim this are the same people who defend the confederate flag and monuments.

Is it fair to say

That future FBI directors will be partisans and none will truly last 10 years. They will be out when a new President of the opposite party gets in office.

Part of the trump letter that everyone should be talking about.

Is the part where he said that Comey assured him that he was not the target of the investigation. Regardless of the reason that Comey was fired and regardless if people thought it was right or wrong, republicans should be just as concerned with that part. Wouldn't that be illegal for the sitting POTUS and FBI Director to be discussing that?

Susan Collins isn't a moderate

She is just as much a hard core conservative as Ted Cruz. She fakes being a moderate as her statement today shows. And we think she is going to save us on health care?

His supporters and Republicans don't/won't care

If this was Clinton or Obama they would be incensed, but they will defend Trump to the end.

It's like everyone forgot 2009-2017

The media, Republicans, Trump, and his supporters are shocked and appalled with the level of hate and disrespect that Trump is getting. As if they forgot about all the hateful, crazy, and nasty things that were said it about President Obama.

We should treat with just as much respect as Joe Wilson gave Obama when he shouted "You Lie!", or when Alito shook his head and was mouthing off under his breath while Obama was addressing Congress, or when Jan Brewer wave her nasty finger in Obama's face, or when Trump led the birther movement, we can go on and on

This is ridiculous

Has a president or party ever celebrated a bill that hasn't been passed by both house nor been signed.

I like what Michael steele said earlier on MSNBC "they are celebrating and have only reached the 50 yard line"

Respect the Office of the POTUS

I find it so ridiculous that the people complaining that we need to respect the office of the POTUS are the same ones for the last eight years were disrespecting President Obama (including Trump).

French election

If the crazy lady Le Pen ends up getting the plurality during round 1 with let's say her receiving 24%, while the other three major candidates get something like 22%, 21%, and 19% while the lesser candidates get the remainder. Trump and the media will tout this as her winning and a populist wave happening across the world.

But a week ago they were touting that the Democrat lost the GA special election with 48%.
