No, that’s not the context. The quote comes from shortly before the start of the war, and concerns media speculation over the possible extent of the casualties. She’s dismissing the speculations, not the actual deaths, which had not yet occurred.

“Melania and I join the Nation in celebrating the death of Barbara Bush”

This seems a bit harsh, especially within the hour of someone’s death. Is there no basic courtesy anymore? She wasn’t evil incarnate, for fuck’s sake.

I kind of want Trump to make some huge flashy statement only to have the entire remaining Bush clan give him the collective finger.

It’s sad that she died and there will be lots of glowing articles about her in the coming days.

Ah, yes. North America, that noted historical “homeland” of white people...

‘People know how loans work’

Not enough people do...

Trump’s entire existence is predicated on:

Oh sure, this happens all the time and has kept me out of jail. Often when the feds raid my crackhouse, I simply ask the judge to allow me to withhold all the drugs and money seized thus preventing any of it from being logged in as evidence. :/

1. lol “taint team”

She’s his lawyer so I can’t blame her for trying (but i can blame her for being his lawyer in the first place!) but even a complete rube can see why someone under investigation can’t get to decide what evidence may be used against him.

Isn’t the purpose of the taint team to address this exact issue?

“doesn’t “look like a guy who needs hookers.”

So Trump brought it up out of the blue and used this as a defense. Whether there is a pee tape or not, it’s pretty clear Trump thinks there is.

Given how things are going, I can’t wait for someone to claim they have it and bring the administration down over illegal cover ups…

No. It’s the equivalent of making the entire family, pets included, sleep in the pee bed with the kid that did the peeing.

Comey’s response to why he reopened the email investigation is woefully inadequate. What he’s telling us is that if he didn’t think Hilary was going to win, then the case wouldn’t have been reopened, which indicates that pursuing justice wasn’t his motivation.

While Comey said he “hoped” the letter “had no impact,” he expressed no regrets for it.

I’m confused. How can a memo, written with time stamps, on physical documents, of things that Trump tenuously agreed happened, be fake?

Other mistakes include no crayons at the table for Trump and a lack of fast food wrappers spread around Trump’s area.
