But instead of a car or a freebie, it's a card with the number $63,005 (current number, i'm sure it will go up significantly by January 2021) Congratulations America. That's your share of the National Debt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) Saw this floating around online. I wonder if going with Pence instead will come back to bite him. The larger-than-life character New Yorkers know simply as The Donald wants America to think of him as The President. Donald Trump, the builder, casino operator and beauty pageant mogul, already has decided on Oprah Winfrey as his dream running mate. "She's popular, she's brilliant, she's a wonderful woman," he said of the talk show queen. "I mean if she'd ever do it; I don't know that she'd ever do it. She'd be sort of like me. I mean, I have a lot of things going; she's got a lot of things going," he told CNN's Larry King Trump shook up the presidential sweepstakes yesterday, announcing he is forming a committee to help him weigh a White House bid on the Reform Party ticket. "The only thing that could interest me is if I could win. I'm not talking about the nomination, I'm talking about the whole megillah," Trump said. Even some of Trump's pals are not quite sure what the master of real estate and of self-promotion is up to. But in a whirl of interviews with the Daily News and other media, he insisted he's serious. "This is obviously very serious. It was all started by tremendous polls," he told The News. "The polls have been enormous. . . .The National Enquirer came out with incredible polls. Other people came out with incredible polls. "That and the fact that a lot of people, including myself, are very unhappy with what they see out there. The spirit of the country is wrong. It's been four years of turmoil. It's been terrible, and Washington has just been a terrible place." He said he would make a decision by January, a time frame that just so happens to dovetail with the December publication date for his next book. Whatever Trump's ultimate intentions, some members of the Reform Party, including pro wrestler-turned-governor Jesse Ventura of Minnesota, are urging him to seek the presidency. Ventura, who was to dine with Trump last night at a local hotel, said: "Do I like him for the Reform Party? It depends if he likes the Reform Party." Ventura is seeking a candidate he can back in what is shaping up as a fracas for the Reform Party's nomination. Conservative Republican Pat Buchanan is expected to bolt his party to seek the Reform Party nod, but Ventura and others oppose his candidacy. Buchanan declined to comment. A new poll of 500 likely Reform Party voters by a Washington firm shows Buchanan leading Trump, 32% to 29%. A CNN-Time poll in July showed Trump with 7% when matched with Texas Gov. George W. Bush and Vice President Gore. The Enquirer poll was an unscientific survey of 100 people. Reform Party Chairman Russell Verney said he has had no contact with Trump, but added: "I welcome him, and anyone else who wants the nomination." Trump, a registered Republican, said he supports tax cuts, abortion rights and universal health care, but not gun control. As for the man he would replace, he said President Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton "really got ripped" on their $1.7 million deal for a house in Westchester's Chappaqua. "The house is right next door to one of my golf courses, and I just wish maybe I could have represented him in buying the house," he said with characteristic self-effacement, "because I think I could have saved them $600,000 or $700,000." Unlike most exploratory committees, Trump's would provide political advice but not raise cash. "The good thing about this is I don't need the money," he said.

Mike in Syracuse Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 16 hours ago, Doc Brown said: It's three years away, but the Dems can't expect another Obama type figure to come out of nowhere and win by nearly 10 million votes like in '08. Whatever you do if you're the Dems, don't push for impeachment and don't let Hillary anywhere near a rally or tv screen. Good points. I'm not a big Trump fan but the Democrats seem particularly lost in the woods. Hillary is toxic and every time she opens her mouth she hurts the parties chances. If the Dems were smart they'd let the Mueller investigation run it's course and keep their mouths shut. They wont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keepthefaith Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) My wife was on the Oprah show about 20 years ago as a guest. Not as a member of the audience, but the actual subject of the show. The show was about neighborhood security and we were portrayed as poor examples of security. Things like leaving keys in the car in the garage, doors unlocked and unsupervised kids running amok around the neighborhood were shown as what not to do. We live in an exceptionally safe area. She came home and said Oprah was all business off camera and not very nice. Oprah barked a few things at the guests prior to going on the air and said almost nothing to them afterward, not even a thank you. A staffer gave my wife a coffee mug when done and sent her on her way. Oprah has the reputation for being very self absorbed and egotistical so she'll fit right in to politics if she runs. 1 hour ago, njbuff said: My God, you are a bleeping moron.

I accept that busy people can't always be nice when they are on a tight schedule. It would be nice if they did show some decency, but they can't always do that.

Assuming he does not pardon himself, once he leaves office he very well could face charges ranging from Obstruction of justice, money laundering, engaging in a criminal conspiracy dealing with stolen goods (DNC emails) and violations of other federal laws. This is what it appears the Mueller is looking into. Of course, you are not a Trumpbot (ya right) so you think the Mueller investigation is not a witch hunt, because that's what Trumpbots are arguing This is also assuming a sitting President cannot be charged with a crime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I’m not sure that Oprah — whose natural constituency doesn’t lie far outside Hillary’s, if at all — is the candidate Hollywood thinks she is. She may even win the popular vote, for our progressive friends who think that means something. “Golden Globes Fiasco: Hypocrisy, Preening, No Self-Awareness:” FTA: NBC, Oprah: The juxtaposition of those two brands is too perfect to pass without notice. If your memory stretches back even three months, you’ll recall that it was NBC that quashed a series of blockbuster scoops by its correspondent Ronan Farrow that, when he finally was forced to take them to The New Yorker, reported that Harvey Weinstein was a serial rapist. By coincidence, the president of NBC News, Noah Oppenheim, moonlights as a screenwriter who wrote Jackie — the kind of arty, Oscar-bait fare that Weinstein often produced and shepherded to Oscar glory (or at least Golden Globes semi-glory). NBC’s late-night jokesters, Meyers included, were curiously slow to make jokes about Weinstein when the scandal initially broke October 5. Winfrey — whose kiss of Weinstein at a Globes-style awards show a couple of years ago went viral as she spoke, and who worked for Weinstein on his 2013 movie, Lee Daniels’s The Butler — appears also to have been used as starlet-bait by the reprehensible producer. Only via Hollyweird logic could she be cast as the anti-Weinstein or the anti-Trump: The world’s leading proponent of the concept “your truth,” a phrase she used again in her speech, is not the antidote to Trumpian deceit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
