Oh, and in a ‘in no way should you be surprised anymore’ addition to his conflicts due to his job at King & Spaldin: The firm represents Rosneft, the Russian oil company.

Also, Burchfield is the ethics advisor for Trump’s trust...

Yeah, well, it looks like the Russians started this, and with ol’ Donnie, you know which of the two competing interests - America’s or Russia’s - he values more.

Turns out, Russia!

Now, now, the Qatari don’t have beautiful Trump properties. This should teach them the true lesson here: Donnie don’t give a shit what you do as long as he and his get paid - in cash or adulation, but preferably cash.

Well, serves the Qatari right for not using his hotel for their celebrations and moving their airline’s offices out of Trump Tower. I mean, the Saudis paid him, so of course he took their side.

But they aren’t wrong. Take your exact statement, change the target audience, and viola! A pro-Trump statement:

Of course not, but that contrarian eagerness can easily be channeled (or manipulated) in evil ways the non-evil person never intended.

Well, they burned an anti-Russia leaker and provided a GOP talking point to dominate the questioning at hearings this week, so maybe it was intentional?

It’s almost like he wants to be president, his circle of self-enriching cronies want him to be president, but his Twitter account doesn’t.

I’ve thought this way about the ban since they canceled the first one (the one he wanted): He would rather take the political win with his base of “librul judges who hate freedom and our troops! sad!” over the risk of a policy that may not actually work - after all, what does he say if the ban is in place and a…

Damn, everyone involved in this admin is corrupt AF!

That last bit is phrased perfectly. Overall, the Paris Accords are more about perception and diplomacy than anything else; they’re a signal of a nation’s willingness to be part of the greater global community. So, of course, the GOP and 45 hate it.

That was my partner’s take as well: He’s already publicly discussed the conversations, and used them to provide his version of events. Comey should have an opportunity to give his version as well.

My partner says that once Trump publicly gave his version of their exchange, he waived the right to claim privilege. He’s the law-talkin’-dude, so I assume he’s probably right.

So, let me get this straight: A guy who can’t even admit he made a typo is accusing someone else of not being able to accept blame? Hmm....
