Trump is what made him leave the GOP - despite the lies of Trumplings, that is the only #WalkAway that actually occurred
The list of "liberals" who are republicans is starting to get pretty long. LOL.

Utter chaos is upon us. The entire world except Putin and Erdogan are in shock and fury over Trump's pulling up stakes in Syria. The market has crashed and we are staring at a recession in spite of a massive dose of stimulus to the economy this year. Mueller has jailed one after another of Trump's staff and advisers and no one who is qualified wants to serve in his administration. And now the government is about to shutdown while the GOP watches Twitter to see what the so-called president of this mess wants to do about a wall he is never going to get. MAGA!

Things Might Get So Bad the Repubs Will Beg the Dems to Impeach


That is a possibility. Trump is like an albatross hanging off of their party's neck. A burden they would be pleased to be relieved of.

I'll be happy to oblige your request.

I am slowly being vindicated: my views on the illegality of Trump and his administration used to be fringe but are increasingly becoming mainstream. I'm happy to educate C-D readers on the con man Trump's crimes in office (and before). It's a public service. I offer it at no charge

Great post OP.

This is a surprise headline. Trump managed to dissappoint his fellow Fox and Friends!

‘Fox & Friends’ host rips Trump over border ‘chaos’ and ‘irresponsible’ Syria withdrawal

Ordinarily, “Fox and Friends” may be a political haven for President Trump, but on Thursday co-host Brian Kilmeade took an unusual double-barrel shot at him.

After news broke that Trump defied his advisers and decided to pull 2,000 U.S. troops out of Syria — arguing on Twitter that “we have defeated ISIS” in that country — Kilmeade slammed the president’s actions, calling them “totally irresponsible.”

The co-host said that “in a stunning and, I think, irresponsible move” Trump has “blindsided” Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis and national security adviser John Bolton, as well as the State Department, which he said is now “packing their bags.”

“Why have advisers?” he said, throwing up his hands.

Kilmeade also pushed back against Trump’s tweet, claiming that the Islamic State, which has unleashed devastation across Iraq and Syria, had been “defeated.”
Just moments earlier on “Fox and Friends,” Kilmeade had expressed skepticism about the situation along the U.S.-Mexico border.

When guest co-host Ed Henry made a claim that the border is more secure than it was under the Obama administration, Kilmeade resisted, saying: “I don’t know. I don’t know. It seems like chaos.”

Dissension from the “Fox and Friends” couch is rare but not unheard of. In October, co-hosts were discussing a political rally at which Trump mocked Christine Blasey Ford for her testimony regarding sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh. Kilmeade commented that the president “chose to blow it.”

And later that month, after one of Trump’s frequent claims that the news media is “the true enemy of the people,” Kilmeade scolded the president.

“I really wish he would lose that term. It doesn’t help anybody,” he said, exasperated. “It doesn’t push back on the media
that he wants to push on.”

Painter is not a nobody. He was White House Chief Ethics Attorney in the Bush Administration.

Very smart guy.

Let it all pile up, then compare it to what Obama and Hillary did, and let people ask “Why the double standard?”

5,473rd prediction from liberals that Trump is politically doomed.

How many of them have proven correct?

(yawn)
So you know that the disbanding of the Trump Charitable Foundation by the Attorney General of NY was because of Trump illegally spending the funds on himself. Right? And that he had to pay $25 million because he lost the lawsuit about the dishonest Trump University.

That’s the first two. There are four more coming down the pike. Your guy is toast very soon.

Many people never heard of him. He's really a nobody. Somebody is someone that has name recognition. He has none. A Chief Ethics Attorney is not someone who's name would be front and center in anything unless there is an ethics violation you are reading about.
