Love people who cherry pick the constitution. Half the time its called an outdated piece of paper written by old white guys

What does that say about people on the right who can't go a day without bringing up Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama?

And he'll keep saying that so the deluded will sooner or later believe it, even thought it did no such thing except prove that the actions of Popadapolous initiated the FBI investigation into the Trump campaign, not the dossier like Trump claims, and that the FBI had 3 previous FISA warrants approved to monitor Cater Page since he and bragged he was very close to people in the Kremlin.

Yeah, you need a denial check.

Duckworthless is probably one of the dumbest people in congress. She is nothing but a puppet for the democrats. Her mentor is dick turbin the second dumbest person in congress. Both are useless but great representatives of the left.

I've gone plenty of happy days without thinking about those two. I even disapprove of some things happening under Trump such as the ballooning deficit, potentially out of control military spending, non progressive views on the environment among other things. The majority of things I do approve. But to waste time and act outraged over such a non story like this makes democrats look pathetic. There are plenty of legitimate important topics that should be talked about.

Perhaps Trump was slightly joking and having fun, but Trump appeared more serious than not.
He did not appear to be joking when he said the Democrats behavior was "un-American".

Both parties do the same thing when the opposite party is in power. It's like he's never seen a SOTU Address. Wait a tick...

I realize he does have a sense of humor, I appreciate that, but he is also a work of fiction as phony as the day is long. One never knows when he is hosing.

Does he really expect Mexico to pay for the wall ... or does everyone know he's kidding?

Was he really inviting Russia to find Clinton's emails, or was he just horsing around?

Did he really promise “terrific” new healthcare system that would “cover everyone” and offer the lower premiums and deductibles, or was he just pulling our legs?
We shouldn't expect truth from the Liar in Chief. He is like a special project in Psychology class. You are researching to find a possible mental evaluation for him but you can't because you've never seen or heard anything or anyone like it.

Well those things are great, but sue me for not cheering like a cheerleader about things that are supposed to happen. What, does he want a cookie?

Proud of her. She would be a great leader. She is telling nothing but the truth. Donnie playing golf while dodging the draft.

Not one of his family members ever offered service. Donnie didn't dodge because he disagreed with the war. He dodged because he was an entitled elite whose papa had money, used it to sham the system. Same way he made it through the top schools.
There are many soliders that have fought many wars for years that have put country before political gain.

When my friends and I joined the Army in 97, we had no clue that 4-5 years later we would be part of a war that would be going this long but we took that oath and pledge. Donnie boy is not patrotic. He craves power and money, the root of his evil.
