Granny Danger Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Trump having to pay $2m because he used his charitable foundation to fund his campaign appears to have barely caused a ripple. In and of itself that should be seriously denting his standing. US politics since his election are totally fucked up and might never recover. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) The former Ukraine Ambassador really putting the boot in here. Delicious! eta...He's to visit the UK on on December 2nd - hopefully he'll try and boost Johnson's campaign, and slag off Jezza. That will only be good for Jezza.

welshbairn Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Trump's old buddies falling out. Doesn't look like Stone or Manafort will be getting pardons anytime soon, Lewandowski's still in with Trump afaik. Hopefully one them has some dirt on their old boss to share. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 They will definitely get pardoned. It's like the House of Lords here. Even if you are a complete f**k up you get the pardon/honour to keep the rest of the lackeys in good morale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 He's doing what the people who pay him on the after dinner circuit expect from him. He was and is pro corporatist so he will attack anyone who threatens the funding of the people who fund his nice lifestyle. He's not really any different than a Tucker Carlson type in this regard. He was never a socialist, at any rate. A big government centrist liberal. He’s significantly more intelligent than Tucker Carlson, who sold his brain at the same moment he sold his soul in the name of Trump. That being said, Obama’s presidency was dignified, measured and, while not radical in any shape, probably more progressive than any other US president since Carter. The further a presidential candidate moves towards the left in the US, the more they alienate the swing voters. Those swing voters are more inclined to permit a right wing agenda (as we saw with Trump) than a “radical” leftist position like Sanders (who is actually not really all that left wing at all by UK standards). The Democrats can’t behave in the same way as the Republicans. Almost every single poll says that Biden is the best bet to beat the Wotsit shitgibbon. Any reasoned analysis would suggest that Biden is the least progressive, least radical candidate running (other than the halfwit DINO Tulsi Gabbard, who would alienate so many Democrat voters that Trump would win in a landslide). Of course, the Zero Hedge/Inforwars position is that Obama was a war-monger and Trump is the pacifist. Obama, in fact, was largely a foreign relations Realist with much in keeping with Clinton. I’d love a George McGovern style candidate, but look what happened to him. 2020 is purely about beating Trump in the swing states, and Biden is hands down the best chance to do that. Policy wise is a completely different ballgame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 They can swing back to the centre in the general election though. Sanders would be incredible, but I'd be more than happy with Lizzy Warren. She seems to have a nice balance - and a warmer female candidate without the Hillary baggage could really ignite the electorate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
