ADDED: A very enjoyable speech. Spontaneous. Some rally-style, good-humored nastiness at the beginning — "evil corrupt... dirty cops... it was all bullshit" — but most of it was team building. Early on he said, "You develop friends in battle," and it turned into his thanking and celebrating the individual friends, not just for what they did helping him win his fight, but also for how they won their own way into politics, and what their wonderful future could be. He talked about how they looked — who looks like he was sent over from "central casting" and who doesn't wear a suit jacket because he's so rightly proud of his wrestler's physique. My favorite part was about Steve Scalise, the man with a wife who, unlike many wives, did not want her husband to die. I love the description of Scalise back on the baseball diamond after his brush with death, fielding a hard shot though "He had no range!" The particularity of it all was just plain nice. Didn't it make them all love being on his team, ready to go and go into the fall elections and to spring into action as soon as the Democrats throw the next "bullshit" at them?
AND: The word that kept coming up as he complimented them one by one was: "warrior." They were warriors — "friends in battle." What great spirit he found and amplified in that room!
ADDED: I see on Twitter that Trump antagonists are jumping on him for saying:
"I want to apologize to my family for having them have to go through a phony, rotted deal by some very evil and sick people. And Ivanka is here, and my sons, and my whole family. And that includes Barron."Because... if he said "my whole family," why did he need to add "And that includes Barron"? These people. Always looking for something to spin.
I mean, I noticed "And that includes Barron." It was odd, but the man was speaking ad lib for over an hour. One thing was worded oddly. I think it was obvious that what he meant was he wanted to express love for his family after all they had to endure, and especially for Barron, the youngest one.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 368 of 368BTW, did I mention that Ciaramella met with the guy who helpfully provided the made up dirt to the DNC in the White House, per DNC logs?
I think too many people are forgetting Obama transferred hundreds of his political appointees into permanent positions in the bureaucracy in the last days of being in office.
If it seems like "those fuckers are everywhere" it's because they are, and this is why.
Good.
Trump realizes this is war and he is preparing his side for war.
This is going to be glorious.
readering, Chuck was the first one in this thread to (bizarrely) bring up Barron at 1:28 PM.
"A very enjoyable speech."

He also talked about how much they had gotten done if Democrats had approached his presidency in a cooperative manner. I'm so glad they didn't.

This!
Trump is a deal-maker. He wants a "great" deal, or at least something he can claim is a great deal. Had the Dems not resisted, Trump would have made all kinds of deals to "get stuff done" that a lot of us would not have been happy with. Instead they dug in so he was able to go after what he really wanted since there was no way the Dems would deal with him open. The more they resist, the more his base supports Trump "digging in", the more he pays back by getting what we all really want and not a watered down compromise.

Not sure if you are aware Left Bank, but Tiffany has been dealing with some very serious medical issues and both her and her Mother are giving politics a wide berth for her sake.
I look at all of the accomplishments that Donald John Trump has to his credit, irregardless, that not one Democrat helped, including the media, in fact, they did everything they could to stop/hobble him, then, I think about Barack Hussein Obama and his "Cash for Clunkers", and I just laugh.

Trump said. And Ivanka is here, and my sons, and my whole family. And that includes Barron."
I didn't watch the (victory) speech. However, he is pointing out who is physically there and how they all have been savaged by the media.
I am assuming that Barron wasn't physically present? There would be no need for a child to be at this event. So....perhaps the "includes Barron" statement is a recognition that the whole family...is involved. Even Barron who is elsewhere.
If Trump had not mentioned Barron the libs would be all over that...HOW dare he forget his kid!!!.

True.

And the left/LLR-left all cheered as if as one.
Yes, the Dems could have beaten him just by cooperating with him. If Trump loses the base, he would not get reelected.
So, DACA, new welfare programs, all that stuff that Trump kinda likes and we all know he likes.
But, they can't get past that every Republican is Hitler. So... MOHR TRUMP!
The API key gives you access to the database they use on the server side. So yes, with the api key, you can in just a few minutes be changing the results on the server.
Depending on what database system they were using this would not be difficult with that key.

It would take creativity at this point to make the app openly vulnerable.
Contemplating this morning on what the Schiff has in the hopper already? He knew Ukraine would never work. That conclusion only became stronger every single day. That meant he is continuing to work his Obama moles still in the administration.
But then..
We haven't heard a thing out of Barr and Durham since the Horowitz report dropped. My guess waiting for the smoke to clear from the Schiff stink bomb. Maybe Trump will hold that information until Schiff makes a move.
on a side note, it would seem there is more than enough reason to fire and replace Wray. his lack of response to the FBI managed contractors abusing NSA data base look up 702 queries, is raw negligence of office. Then, still no response to Clinesmith, the agent responsible for altering emails used as evidence in FISA warrants. Hopefully the Trump team is zeroed in one one or two Elliott Ness's that have no ties to Washington DC swamp,and willing to make heads roll to clean up the corruption that eroded the FBI during 8 years of Obama's politicization of the DoJ.

Tiffany was at SOTU.
It's not hard to notice that Trump is nice nice other times too.
I am sure this was said above, but Barron has been subjected to nonstop yammering about his affect, his intelligence, his height, his mother is concerned, his father is neglectful, blah, blah, blah. I am glad Trump gave him some specific recognition.
This is a happy time for the first family and the whole GOP team, of which Mitt the moral midget from MA/CA/UT is no longer a part through his own choosing. Mitt can go off on one of Bill Kristol’s cruises and share Shirley Temples with George Will.

Melania Trump Rips Impeachment Witness for Mocking Barron Trump During Testimony
Yes, that's the one.
It was the perfect safe space awards ceremony with Donald Trump as Ricky Gervais.
The "one" was Pamela Karlan.
Here’s my Tweet on Barron to my 7 followers.
https://twitter.com/BaitBan/status/1225520705032392706
"And Ivanka is here, and my sons, and my whole family. And that includes Barron."
Becauae it's a Thursday, at noon, and maybe you would expect Barron to be in school. That's how big a deal it is, Barron skipped school for it. Honestly, how ridiculous the media/democrats have become.
“So while the president can name his son Barron, he can’t make him a baron,” Kaplan said in response to a question from Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee during the hearing.
Earlier in the afternoon, White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham also voiced her disgust.
“Classless move by a Democratic ‘witness,'” Grisham wrote on Twitter. “Professor Karlan uses a teenage boy who has nothing to do with this joke of a hearing (and deserves privacy) as a punchline.”
Democrats in the impeachment hearing laughed at the comparison, despite Kaplan clearly making fun of Barron Trump’s name.
I liked the speech. He's a very powerful, rich and famous man, and he showed some humility, some relief, some humor, and some fidelity to his family and supporters.

Bang! Zoink!! Pow!!!
I just assumed that when Trump said “even Barron” he meant that even Barron was in attendance and not in school. Occam’s Razor.
" someone had taken a React tutorial and modified it. “
That explains so many things and fits all of the fuckups. It was at POC(Proof of concept) stage, basically.
The danger in a hard-coded API is that they probably used the userid and password. So you wouldn’t use the API at all. Once you have the credentials all you need to do is sit back and change things with another interface. And from some of the posts I’ve seen about the code, I bet the database tables were not protected with a timestamp column to show when changes where made and by whom. And a safe database would have tables dedicated to tracking all the changes made to the data.
Trump better make good on shooting someone on Fifth Avenue if he wants my vote. I hope it’s Schiff, or Pelosi, or better yet, both. Then he can work on selling Alaska to Putin.

What a horrible-terrible thing to say!! No wonder everyone is clutching their pearls over it.
If only Karlan had compared the President's child to a dog - then perhaps Trump would have had the First Lady lay a medal around the Professor's neck...
The "...and that includes Barron" is easy. He's appropriately using it to emphasize that even his young son was deeply effected by it, not just his adult children. He is a Dad to a fine young son, and can you imagine how much precious family time was stolen by this farce? (Not to mention any heat Barron took from peers.)
BAG,
You cannot possibly use the term "loyal opposition" for someone as dishonest and malicious as Chuck.

As if to demonstrate how desperate Democrats have become, she went on to misrepresent Trump’s Charlottesville “good people on both sides” remarks in an effort to smear the president. As everyone who has bothered to watch the tape knows, the president “totally” condemned the white supremacists at the rally, but pointed out that there were bystanders present on each side who had legitimate opinions about Confederate statues.
Wasn't there some commentator Here, that kept insisting that the Charlotteville Hoax, was a hoax?
Is he still here? Does he Still believe that? Hey Chuck! what do YOU think?

I've avoided political speeches since 2003, but reading the comments here, I think I might go watch it. However, I will admit that I listened to Ted Cruz's podcast the last few days. I realize he's a politician and it is speech, but he brings to the discussion the type of stuff that brought me to Althouse and Instapundit (and one time Patterico). I recommend to anyone here to listen to the Episode 10 as it regards the events leading up to the vote on witnesses.
Now, I need to go find Trump's victory speech. A CNN chyron said he was "vulgar and vindictive", so I'm sure it is a perfect speech.

That's not the money quote. This is the money quote:
“I filed a complaint with HR, but the follow-up I received left me feeling as though I needed to make myself smaller or change who I was to fit into the office culture.”
"or change who I was to fit into the office culture."

You idiot. Is that the best thing you can think of to say on this topic? First of all, it's incoherent. What the heck are you talking about?
Then, what happened to the idea that a president's minor children are out of bounds? Forgot about that? And so did that hack Karlen. It's supposed to be like they are not even there, except to be praised and coddled. How did Karlen do on that, peabrain?
Or maybe you just think that that humane rule is only applied to Demmies. Why might I think that? Because the HW Bush minor grandchildren, the W Bush minor children, and now the Trumps' minor son have all been exposed to MSM examination and partisan hack ridicule by Demmies. On the rare occasions that GOPers tried that on the Obama girls, people lost their jobs, and rightly so. Little Chelsea got treated like she was wrapped in cotton floss, except by some hacks on SNL.

Hey. Quit making fun of Alaska or we'll divide in half and Texas will be the third largest state.
"How it begins."
For Mitt, it's already over. He now has zero influence in the Senate. Maybe he'll go independent--Angus King is, he says. Or maybe he'll cross over and become a Demmie. That would be typical of Mitt's poor judgment and impeccably bad timing. Nobody cares. You can see how being in the minority gives you a lot of freedom. If you are in the majority, you actually have to decide things.
ARM, like the rest of the Demmies, you are one or two elections behind. Team Demmie thinks they are going to win with a candidate with the right "identity" and a program of free stuff and open borders.
Trump and the GOP are going to march forward unified under the banner of economic strength, full employment, national defense forces deployed abroad only to protect American lives and property, personal freedom, equality before the law, and respect for the rule of law.
We may not win, but I like our program and our chances.

WSJ] The Department of Homeland Security is suspending enrollment in Global Entry and other trusted-traveler programs for New York residents in response to the state’s so-called sanctuary policies to safeguard immigrants from deportation, the acting chief of the department said.
Chad Wolf announced the decision in a Fox News interview Wednesday, a day after President Trump devoted several minutes of his State of the Union address to excoriating sanctuary jurisdictions, which limit law-enforcement cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Mr. Trump said such jurisdictions "release dangerous criminal aliens to prey upon the public," and called on Congress to pass a law imposing civil penalties on cities and states that decline to cooperate with federal immigration officials....
On November 6, 1992, three days after the presidential election, Limbaugh made a reference to Chelsea Clinton, daughter of President-elect Bill Clinton, Limbaugh stated: "Everyone knows the Clintons have a cat; Socks is the White House cat. But did you know there is also a White House dog?" — a picture of Chelsea then appeared onscreen. Although Limbaugh has claimed it was a technical error, as Al Franken documented in his book Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, the show was on a tape delay, so if truly a technical error, it could have been corrected prior to the show's airing. Limbaugh countered that the television show was a big drain on his time and did not include retakes. Limbaugh apologized on his show, claiming fatigue. A few days later, he said, "I don't need to get laughs by commenting on people's looks, especially a young child who's done nothing wrong. I mean, [Chelsea] can't control the way she looks."

Trump made the point that he now has many very able defenders, some of whom are going back to their home states to further their political careers there by spreading his ideas on how to make the economy work, others at work on trials to come for Deep State criminals. He probably also liked to think of Speech-Ripper hearing that Trump was over in the White House thanking a roomful of defenders and intermittently slamming her. She would be thinking that this contrasted with her solo rant. From this she turns to the latest update from Iowa where DNC incompetence is on display, then turns from that to Milwaukee where her party members have threatened to burn the city and have actually given all the convention-related graft to people from New Jersey. This last, of course, is receiving the undivided attention of Milwaukee's leadership who know the essentials from the yada-yada. Nancy sighs. Then she finds her self humming a gay little tune and feels better, then the words come back to her: "It was sad, it was sad, it was sad when the great ship went down... And so we leave poor Nan, alone as night falls on the darkened Capitol.

I think it is big-hearted of those women of color to work for Elizabeth Warren, given that she falsely asserted — on no hard evidence — that she was a woman of color to get ahead in her career. All the benefits of affirmative action with none of the problems that she would have had to overcome if she really had been a POC. Sweeeeeeeet

Speaker Pelosi Accuses President Trump of Being Sedated at State of the Union Address
Via NY Post:
...The president won the hearts of farmers by abolishing inheritance taxes, says Kaufmann, a seventh-generation Iowa farmer.
“In a real, fundamental way, he preserved the family farm . . . I don’t even know if he ever talked to a farmer before he ran for president but he just tapped right into that rural, populist notch . . . He knows how to read hearts and he has read the heart of rural populists in this state.”
While “tariff man” Trump waged trade war, farmers held tough until he delivered deals with Mexico, Canada, Japan — and stage one of a China deal.
“An Iowa farmer is inherently independent and skeptical — they extended their necks for the president for well over a year and then they saw him deliver,” Kaufmann said. “There is no political rhetoric, no spin, nothing that can solidify support as much as that.
“Now that he’s delivered, there’s no penetrating that bond.”...

Oh she did, and in razor thin Wisconsin. Well, it doesn’t matter if its. really Inga or not. I don’t read either one of their predictable posts.
Fredo Romney: “We always knew it was you Fredo!"
Against my better judgment I watched ABC national news for a few minutes.
Apparently Mitt Romney is a besieged, but incredibly moral hero. Donald Trump is a vicious Hitler-type megalomaniac.
It amazes me that people still watch the DNC media. They are shoving fake news up your ass like an unwanted enema.
OK. I need to lower my blood pressure.
Oh, ok, sure. Remember, PP, it's not a lie, if you believe it.
Right.
Is the fact that he did THIS also a lie?
ABC News actually name-dropped "Hitler" when talking about our President? If so, that's f'ed up & they should be ashamed of themselves.
Anyone have a link to the clip? Would like to see it for myself...
And Trumps impeachment shall ne'er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be rememberèd—. Romney.
Remember the scarecrow of Romney Marsh?
Obama the 'Magic Negro' - Los Angeles Times
“If so, I got a toll-bridge in New Jersey to sell ya.”
Oh, like fuck you do, you lying little waddler.
Did the LA Times write an article or promote a song making fun of how black Americans other than Obama stereotypically speak and behave?
Anyway, here's some other shit that armchair freedom fat fighter and pie hole liberator Limbaugh did.
May the frantic flailing continue...
“If so, I got a toll-bridge in New Jersey to sell ya.”
How much is it? May add to my collection, already own Goolden Gate and Brooklyn. Did entire transaction via email and PayPal.
Triple divorcee Limbaugh apparently thought that more hormone pills means more sex.
I'd bet he still does.
That takes some serious idiocy.
It's ok. He pretended to learn his lesson once forced to by the only thing that matters to him in life: Advertiser money.

HoaxPPT: "Did the LA Times write an article or promote a song making fun of how black Americans other than Obama stereotypically speak and behave?"
"Barack The Magic Negro" was literally an Al Sharpton quote offered up by Sharpton as a criticism of obama because at the time it was still permissable for black Americans to make note of Barack's life experience which was said by many blacks to NOT really be a black American life experience.
Obama spoke of that as well in his autobiography which helped drive his decision to move to Chicago in order to become more "authentically" black.
I also did not hold it against obama that he despised the British because, after all, his biological father was arrested and tortured by the Brits in Africa.
A very complicated and interesting life trajectory and story for our ex-President.
HoaxPPT, what are your thoughts regarding obamas threats to actively engage in the campaign if it appears Sanders is going to win in order to keep Sanders from getting the nomination?
It's funny how easily contractor gives up once you post just a simple link or two to the horrible things that his heroes do.
Why not just pick easier people to defend next time, stupid asshole.
What is an Idiot Savant? (with picture)

Not what Triple Divorcee Limbaugh did.
Limbaugh promoted a song intended to ridicule less fortunate blacks' attitudes and ways of speaking.
And then there was the Sandra Fluke stuff.
HoaxPPT, what are your thoughts regarding obamas threats to actively engage in the campaign if it appears Sanders is going to win in order to keep Sanders from getting the nomination?
He can do what he wants. It's a free country.
Is it not?
Hopefully it will go as poorly as his active promotion of the Hillary campaign.
The song may have been funny.
But come on. It was racist too.
You know it was.
Just admit it.
That solemn editorial about global warming looks pretty silly........
... with all those comments about Climategate.
Climate Alarmists Have Been Wrong About Virtually Everything
Well Drago, I'll say one thing. At least you can focus on the actual topic.
That poor prick Full Moon, he gets triggered every time you point out how full of shit he is.
He then starts posting links to every thing and anything under the sun. Shoes and ships and sealing wax. Carpenters and kings.
Nothing against being a contractor. (Or even dropping out of whatever curriculum he desired before aiming for the stars with his contractor dreams).
But you can tell how much his empty head gets under his own skin. He'd like nothing more than to be the life of a party. Any party.
But then he becomes painfully aware of how stupid and ignorant he is on anything others are talking about. And then he wants to kill himself.
Sad.
Under Trump, we have Black employment at the highest ever ...
Why don't you go campaign for him then? In a black neighborhood. Or anywhere.
Not convinced of your powers of persuasion? I'm sure many voters would be able to relate to someone as dim-witted as you.
You're not winning any converts here. Your audience is already the already committed or the already opposed.
So go wave that Trump Fellatio Flag as high as you want. No one cares.
Just like how no one cares about you.
HoaxPPT: "The song may have been funny.

To call that song racist, where every lyric is based on actual Sharpton comments. Would require me to call out Sharpton for anti-black racism.
For me to declare the song out of bounds would require me to declare Sharptons thoughts and words out of bounds.
That's why the song is perfect.
HoaxPPT: "Hopefully it will go as poorly as his active promotion of the Hillary campaign."
You've got a real cluster-- going on over there.
Bernie is running away in NH and both Warren and Biden are scrambling for fourth.
Nevada is looking the same and Slow Joe will be barely crawling into SC where his black vote base is already shrinking rapidly.
Bernie vs Bloomie?

So basically there's no way for you to make clear your low regard for Sharpton without a crude and much more broadly aimed song parody.
Strange.
I don't think Bloomberg will do well either. And Biden was destined to tank sooner or later.
Usually much sooner. In campaigns past, it was the first moment he'd open his clumsy mouth.
Bernie was always going to take NH. They're next-door to Vermont (as well as Canada) and don't get sexually excited by conservative appeals to cutting rural citizens' healthcare coverage the way the red state governors do.
Bernie's performance in even very conservative Vermont districts may or may not mean something to you as well.
Warren's not been doing well for reasons I can get into more with you later, if you want. Or not. It seems she's really not all that.
I think Limbaugh's faking his cancer as surely as Michael J. Fox was faking his parkinsons.

Keppin' hope alive ! Hillary/Pete 2020
HoaxPPT's role here is, apparently, to make Comrade LLR look reasonable.
Maybe he could try the same for Bernie.
HoaxPPT: "So basically there's no way for you to make clear your low regard for Sharpton without a crude and much more broadly aimed song parody."
In my defense I did not write, perform, produce , record or distribute the song so, yeah, I could probably express my low regard for Sharpton without this parody.
Unfortunately I've taken a vow to live my life as if in a musical, so I'm kinda stuck now....
HoaxPPT: "They're next-door to Vermont (as well as Canada) and don't get sexually excited by conservative appeals to cutting rural citizens' healthcare coverage the way the red state governors do."
Darn It!!
Well, we'll just have to figure something else out.....in a song of course.
It is school day. Where would Barron be?
?Not *here*?
HoaxPPT: "Warren's not been doing well for reasons I can get into more with you later, if you want. Or not. It seems she's really not all that."
Warren requires no further analysis.
I dont think Buttituvwxyz is going to be able to hang with bloomie for the "establishment" candidate lane so it probably will be Bloomie there taking on Bernie head to head.
Cash vs True Believers
Bernie will find a way to lose the nomination.
He doesn't want to win.
He has the best job a "democratic socialist" can get. Globalist shills get paid well.
Bloomberg with woman VP
Buttijeeze has at least as good a shot as Bloomingdales or Bloomberg. Charisma goes a long way. That's why the billionaires usually have to pay someone else to run. They're usually too old and ugly. And it's also why people still think JFK was a good president. Because he was a dreamboat.
Well I'll be damned. Moon hit the mark.
The smartest thing whichever front runner gets it can do, is they nominate Gabbard for VP.
What you bet Bloomie's pick for a woman VP is a 5 foot tall 100 lbs woman.

So, Stacy Abrams out?

Yep, known Russian asset. Get Russian expertise in stealing elections.
And it's also why people still think JFK was a good president. Because he was a dreamboat.

You know, I must be the only boomer female alive who thinks JFK wasn't that hot. Well, OK, he was hotter than Eisenhower and Nixon but that's not saying much. And it's not political bias, because when I was a Democrat and believed JFK was a great president, I still wondered why everyone thought he was so incredibly handsome. Young Teddy, I thought, was better looking than JFK, but nobody carried on about his looks. RFK and the Kennedy women all had that peculiar Irish combo of big teeth and long faces.
"The smartest thing whichever front runner gets it can do, is they nominate Gabbard for VP."
That would be smart, but they won't do it. Gabbard is still in the Dem Establishment doghouse for the major sin of suing Hillary (or trying to, since Hillary refuses to be served) and for the minor sin of appearing on Tucker Carlson's show. That proved Tulsi is a RUSSIAN AGENT, according to Pants Suit.
Bloomberg can't gin up enough energy to sell his end of ad approval tag.
Talk about a sleeper candidate.
Corruptocrats have vowed to keep harassing Trump.
Chuck:
"Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic..."
He mentioned Barron b/c one of the so-called "legal experts" who testified in the House said Trump thought he was King, he even named a son "Barron."
Trump didn't start it, a Dem shill law prof did. In public testimony before Congress, no less. She thought she was oh-so-clever.
So, Barron took an undeserved shot from a a-hole on the other side. He deserved a mention.
Is there any bullshit liberal trope so ridiculous that Mr Pee Pee Tapes won’t swallow it whole?
Windmill cancer!
Oh wait. That's an actual so-called conservative president's belief.
Now go home and get your shinebox.
Sounds like a family inside joke. Barron must have complained about being left out of grown up events.
I was glad to see Trump acknowledge Barron. I wasn't sure he knew Barron was his son.
It made me think of President Reagan, of whom his eldest daughter said, "As we were growing up, he paid so litle attention to us, Michael (her brother) and I thought he didn't know we were his children."
Well other than those times Trump, Melania and Barron are seen together.
HoaxPPT: "The smartest thing whichever front runner gets it can do, is they nominate Gabbard for VP."
Thats the one woman the Dem powers that be will never allow on the dem ticket....so of course she is easily the dems best VP choice.
bbkingfish: "I was glad to see Trump acknowledge Barron. I wasn't sure he knew Barron was his son."
Go ahead and run with that line of attack.
Its probably all you have left after this week.
So, Barron took an undeserved shot from a a-hole on the other side. He deserved a mention.
Exactly, he was responding in the current context. He was undoubtedly doing a "shout out" to the Democrat expert witness, Pamela Karlan, chosen to provide testimony at the multi-trimester, late-term warlock trial.
Young Teddy, I thought, was better looking than JFK,
He grew into the face he deserved.
It’s Scotch-Irish by the way.
As a not fan of Trump, I think spiking the football was earned and warranted. He's right. The Democrats should have dealt with him. Look at his instincts on gun policy and willingness to deal on immigration. He would have triangulated more than Clinton. Instead, the people who warned me a Romney administration would throw old people off a cliff and empower Nazis while undermining our relationship with our ally Russia now see Romney as a truth telling independent voice of morality and Russia as our number one geopolitical foe. The Democrats fumbled the last few years terribly on a strategic level. That's before we get to the impeachment trial where a prosecuting lawyer acted as a witness and the defense could not face their accuser.

"I just assumed that when Trump said “even Barron” he meant that even Barron was in attendance and not in school. Occam’s Razor."
That was my take too. The youngest in a room full of adults. I bet he was chuffed when his dad mentioned his name. To be treated as an adult in a room full of adults.
"I just want to know the timing of the durham hammer."
The day after the Andrew McCabe indictments and the day before Mike Flynn is sworn in as NSA.

No one rocked a neck brace better.
