This is the original post of the thread. Nearly two years in and it’s pretty much been the same since day one.Day 1-Press conference making sure that you all know that the small inauguration photos were a result of the media
"framing" in order to make the crowd look small. In fact, this was the largest inauguration turnout ever. No questions,
just believe me. Thanks. We move on.
Day 2-KAC goes on Meet the Press and refuses to answer Chuck Todd's question about why the lies in the press
conference, explaining them away as simply "alternate facts" and threatens that they may have to re-evaluate their
relationship with Todd/NBC.
Day 3-Spicer has temper tantrum and begs press only to report positive things about Trump administration.
Day 3 UPDATE!!! -Trump lets us all know that he only lost the popular election because 3-5 million people illegally voted for Hillary! He's winning BIGLY!
Day 4-Trump orders scientists at the EPA and Dept. of Ag to no longer communicate with the public. Mum's the word!

Trump foreign policy
1. Create a crisis (NAFTA, China, North Korea).
2. Issue threatening tweets and bellicose statements.
3. “Negotiate.”
4. Reach a “deal.”
5. Claim credit for defusing crisis.

This may sound a little silly saying it to a guy with 27k posts but you don't post enough.

Continuing in the same vein, here are our allies to the north and south dawning in awareness that the American president has no idea where to sign his name...

Good lord almighty. I know his incompetence should never surprise me, but this is cartoonish levels of idiocy. The look on the faces of those next to him kills me. They can't believe what they're seeing.
Good thing the world isn't laughing at us anymore!!!

Looks like Trump gave Trudeau the screwed up copy.
And why does Trump insist on signing in magic marker?

IF THE Democrats take the WH in 2020, cue Republicans whining about an "apology tour". Good God man.

Trudeau should put it on ebay. If Bezos and Cuban both realize it's there, he could cover the entire national debt of Canada.

Is it your belief that people here think CNN is some gold standard of reporting?

It's ACTUALLY SERIOUSLY ####### HAPPENING this time!We already know Trump is a historically awful person/president and yet he surprises us everyday...

I hope not. But if this is any indication, it's no wonder some people think impeachment has been around the corner for 1.5 years.

Real talk: if the Congress was either Democratic or ethical, he would have been impeached already.

You know it's technically possible that they're all correct.

HAHAHAHAHA the media has consistently overestimated the intelligence, ethics and patriotism of the American public and the Republican party!
Joke's on them! Silly media!

Well, there's a difference between "actual news" and "gold standard." They are actual news. They're also opinion and hype and marketing and such. There's a lot of spin. That doesn't mean they aren't actual news networks.

If Congress was ethical, every living president (and HW) would be tried for all sorts of crimes. You really can’t oversell the historically criminal nature of the office. It’s an international crime syndicate.
My condolences by the way. An absolutely dreadful past week or so for you. Hang in there.

Listen, I have the same cynical outlook on our government as you do and I believe all Presidents are guided by the military industrial complex, etc., etc.....but for the love of god...can you at least be ####### honest for once and put Trump in a different category than anyone that has come before him??? WTF dude.
It's easier to be fooled than to admit you've been fooled. He's never going to admit jack. Just pop in and troll once in a while.

Can you give me a citation to a federal statute you think Obama violated during his presidency, and a link to a news story about his actions that violate the statute?
TIA.
I think it’s creative to put the jackass on the top of the tree. Always thought it was an under appreciated part of the nativity story.

Hmm, let me see here.. ah, yes. Here it is- § R-1: Ren's statute of killing kids is wrong.
Henry Ford
Footballguy
Ha! Now I know you're making it up. Ren doesn't get involved in actual politics and certainly doesn't draft legislation or lobby his representatives for it.
TobiasFunke
Footballguy
If only I could find a post from someone in this forum explaining that just because something is wrong, that doesn't make it a crime.
Oh hey, look at this genius! You should debate that guy. It would be a helluva discussion, considering your diametrically opposed views on the meaning of criminality. Want me to start a thread?

You think opposition research is on the same scale as killing kids with flying robots?

What makes the basis for their legal framework any more legitimate than mine? I didn't consent to theirs any more than they consented to mine. Mine would actually punish people for killing kids.
If Tobias' lawyerly obeisance to some federal code, immortalized by gems like Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh, is more important than punishing criminals for killing innocent people, he can have it. When I kill people, I'm a murderer. When a President does it, he's pragmatic. Joke country

Way to change the subject to avoid confronting the fact that you totally contradicted yourself in two posts within 15 minutes of each other!
To answer your question honestly even though you never ever seem able to extend me the same courtesy: No, I don't. But I also know for a fact that the act of ending a child's life is not necessarily criminal. The only limitation on hypotheticals is one's imagination. And as it turns out, while I don't approve of drone attacks specifically because of the potential for collateral damage, approving one that inadvertently ends the life of an innocent person, child or otherwise, is neither a crime in the United States nor is it a violation of any international agreement to which the US is a party.
And given that you just finished explaining to us in the Russia thread that bad things aren't necessarily crimes and presumably that only crimes are impeachable, and you're trying to argue for the impeachment of Obama (and others) here, I'll ask you again- what federal statute did Obama violate?
