Agree entirely - but when the investigation is over - what is going to happen?
Shag all.
Whose the strong Dem candidate? I know no one. Everything has been taken over by Trump. Its one big smokescreen and everyone is being clouded by the BS.
At end of day its solidifying the Republican support base.
And you lot thought Trump was an idiot. Never have the left been played so easily.
What part there is bollocks? I admit there's a chance he could be elected in 2016 - just far from a foregone conclusion and will be a tight race.
Pretty sure Cheesy could put a vast inheritance in a fund that tracks the stock market easy enough, all the while not running casinos that go bankrupt.
I do remain skeptical of his ability to win the presidency though, I admit.

What sort of logic is that in defending him? Plenty of leaders and rich people are cnuts.
I've got President of an Independent Republic of Scotland in the bag, right enough...
I'm not defending him. As you've no doubt deduced, you lot are. The more hatred he gets, the more his presidency solidify's.
That depends. If Trump has committed a crime legal proceedings can be brought against him and pressure will continue to mount for the GOP to act. Financial stuff can be quite revealing.
The Dems still have Bernie and Biden, old as they may be, and both are projected to beat Trump in 2020.
Cheesy for President.
Not really though. Very little evidence suggests this. Both sides of the divide have become more entrenched but most current polling puts the Dems in a better position than they were in 2016.
It's weird logic anyway though. Should people not criticise his faults because it might offend some people who like him? The entire point of political opposition is to oppose.
Have you learnt nothing about projections?
Projections in 2016 had Hilary and Trump within a few percentage points of each other. 538 had Hilary as favourite but acknowledged there was a reasonable chance of Trump winning. It was a surprise but far from out of the realm of possibility.
But they aren't. There just going after Trump, not the policies. It's become absurd.
He's totally unfit to be President. That's worth going after.
This. Politics has become a sport.
I fear the UK is heading in the same direction.
Meaningless.
Brilliant.
Mighty Mouse v Cheesy. I’m with the Gorgonzola
Because the President is an individual and as an individual he has an endless list of questionable actions and remarks.
Lol
More like Dairylea.
And what gives you the moral high ground here. Are you on Jesus's payroll?
Yep. Windrush vs antiSemitism.
No. This is a thread dedicated to the Trump Presidency, in which people are being critical of aspects of Trump's Presidency. I don't see why other people not being perfect exempts him of criticism.
Although I suspect you're just trying to deflect because on an actual discussion of Trump's policies and conduct you'd have nothing.
They are going after him because he provides plenty to go after. Nobody wants an orange version of Erdogan, Berlusconi, or Duarte running their country.
This is one of the best things about his dipshit supporters: they understand so little about projections that they actually think anyone was seriously wrong. It was always a possibility, albeit not a large one, that he could win. Every forecast has a margin of error, this was well within it. That does not devalue voting projections in any way, people just got far too used to them being absolutely on point and treated them as gospel.
Clearly the election said otherwise.
So where's the Obama Presidency thread then? Deflection or not, I can't recall anything like this about that fool.
It actually didn't since he didn't get as many votes as his opponent. And if you factor in the Russian interference piece and his subsequent conastristry, he would've gotten even less.
True, some of the pollsters got their state projections heavily wrong, but others acknowledged the possibility of a Trump win and most had the actual voting tallies quite close.
Which makes them dipshits.
There's one reflecting on the aftermath of his Presidency, some of the posts in it incredibly critical. Feel free to dig it up and post in it if you want. Naturally the current President will get more attention than the former one. Again you're deflecting. No interest in discussing actual political events and so obfuscating onto Obama instead.
He won. Everything else is hypothetical.
No problem discussing his political agenda, but I'm rushing off to vote Tory
in a minute.How long before Rudy G gets fired?
Its not hypothetical that he got less votes than his opponent.
Also, winning an election doesn't make someone above the law. He still has to account for his actions both during the campaign and while he is President. If he is found to have acted inappropriately or broken the law then he is going down.
