I think you are missing his point. Trump and his team have repeatedly stated that there is no such thing as conflict of interest for the office of the President and VP. He’s graciously doing all of us a favor by going as far as he has to distance himself from his businesses. He said it plainly this morning that he

He also said “I won’t do foreign deals.” And then proceeded to brag about investors from Dubai asking him to do new deals. That press conference was a just a parade of horribles.

As soon as you types stop living in pretend world where words don’t mean anything. Christ on a cracker please kill yourself. Your idiocy is wasting oxygen.

Yep! I posted this before, months ago, but I’ll reiterate: Trump’s a master of kettle logic.

I think about Congressman Lewis frequently—and say a prayer that he stays active and healthy to help us through this next few years. We need him.

Ok, I’m going to assume you’re being serious, that you’re not just a troll, and you honestly don’t understand the problem here. I’m hopped up on caffeine and stuck on the world’s most boring and never-ending conference call, so let’s do this.

John Lewis is amazing as always.

Counterpoint: “I will turn over my businesses to my sons” and “I will have no conflicts of interest” cannot both be true either.

if nabokov is correct that “satire is a lesson, parody is a game,” then it doesn’t even rise to the level of satire. it’s a hastily constructed parody. like an snl sketch from olden times when they couldn’t think of what else to do so they just had chevy chase dress up as gerald ford and fall down again.

Rather than a blind trust, he created a seeing quasi-trust.

Please don’t forget:

Maybe his idiotic reasoning is actually a brilliant riddle! Is the answer “The doctor is the boy’s mother”?

Right?

Two things he said this morning:

What a powerful moment when Cory Booker acknowledge the Congressional Black Caucus behind him, and listening to the Chairman apologize for not acknowledging them.

The benefit of them always sending you to voicemail is that you don’t have to talk to a live person, so it’s not so scary! Trying to remind my fellow millennials of this, since we all hate talking on the phone.

Speeches like this, people like Representative Lewis, are what we need more of in this country. They are what we need to raise up in this country. We are all to blame for not focusing more on the actors for good, for conversing about their thoughts and goals for our country, and instead putting the spotlight on the

Unfortunately, I think Jeff Sessions appointment will pass. However, no one can say the Democrats didn’t put up a strong fight.

He will, and you can partially thank Harry Reid for it. Filibusters used to be possible to stop problematic nominees and you needed at least 60 votes to overcome one. But Harry Reid decided to go with the “nuclear option” to change the rules to allow a filibuster to be broken with only 51 votes - a mere majority - in

Honestly, that Sessions can sit there without shame and sit face Lewis and look him in the eye, that he can openly lie and misrepresent his work, it shows you just how fucking soulless he is.
