Well, if your reality involves conspiracy theories and a Turner Diary-esque vision of the US, then yeah, of course it would seem a bit bleak.
Meanwhile, Lord Dampnut is forced to pay 2 million in damages for running a fake charity and give the remaining funds over to actual charities:
And you're a naive fool. For the most part when I do make a grim forecast it's been relatively accurate, and even my non-grim forecasts (like positive economic predictions in 2016 and 2017) were relatively accurate.
Ever heard of the Walton foundation for example?
I mean this has NEVER happened before Trump. Never. Only Trump does this.
Please point to one "conspiracy theory" where I've been wrongMaybe you'll cite how I said that the US government was engaged in mass surveillance of the citizenry? Oh wait. That one was true.
Maybe you'll cite how I said Epstein was probably murdered. Oh wait. The examiner says he was strangled.
Maybe you'll cite how I said the US was backing ISIS. Oh wait. Wired, Huffington Post, Salon, and Guardian all proved that.
In any case I've got a massively better track record than you do, since you still believe debunked, batshit insane conspiracy theories like Jill Stein being a KGB agent.

Oh yes, you're the enlightened one who alone knows what's going on and I'm the naive fool for not believing in things like chemtrails. Except your sources rarely, if ever, prove what you're saying or actually show the complete opposite. We've been down that road quite a few times before. Do you by chance suffer from some form of extremely selective retrograde amnesia?

I'm quite sure other people besides Lord Dampnut have run fraudulent charities. What's your point? This is a thread about him, not the Waltons.

Well, then. Go ahead and quote me where I said anything even remotely to that effect. I'll wait. Meanwhile, making spurious leaps of logic, believing outright falsehoods, and misinterpreting what people say in no way constitutes as proof of anything.

Lord Dampnut may get destroyed in US suburbs, but he still has support where it counts:

Russian experts, government officials, and prominent talking heads often deride the American president for his Twitter clangor, haphazard approach to foreign policy, clownish lack of decorum, and unfiltered stream of verbalized consciousness. But all the reasons they believe Trump “isn't a very good president” for America are precisely their reasons for thinking he is so great for Russia.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a Russian client whose regime teetered on the brink of collapse only to be saved definitively by Trump's chaotic approach to the Middle East, recently said that “President Trump is the best type of president for a foe.” The Russians heartily agree. The Trump presidency has been wildly successful for Russia, which is eagerly stepping into every vacuum created by the retreat of the United States on the world stage.
“They say Trump is making Russia great. That's basically accurate,” pointed out Karen Shakhnazarov, CEO of Mosfilm Studio and a prominent fixture on Russian state television. “The chaos brought by Trump into the American system of government is weakening the United States. America is getting weaker and now Russia is taking its place in the Middle East. Suddenly, Russia is starting to seriously penetrate Africa... So when they say that Trump is weakening the United States—yes, he is. And that's why we love him... The more problems they have, the better it is for us.”
Since the current administration is proving to be beneficial for the Kremlin, the Russians are openly contemplating various strategies and conspiracy theories, designed to undermine President Trump's political opponents. Russian state TV host Dmitry Kiselyov named Joe Biden as “Trump's most dangerous rival" and urged Trump to “keep digging in Ukraine for the sweetest kompromat of all: Proving that Ukraine—not Russia—interfered in the U.S. elections."

Starker, I think you've got to understand that you could clinically diagnose T_T with pathological stupidity, all you have to do is test his cranium for the existence of a brain instead of a brain-shaped mass of howler monkeys.
Also, I think it'd benefit you to see his posts as very poorly constructed efforts to instigate a response, which for whatever reason give him a chubby on the internet. Or to put it more simply, he's trolling you for luls, but can't even do that properly.
Starker on 10/11/2019 at 15:04
Sure, I don't even know why I bother responding to him. Sorry about that.
Back to the topic, the excuses Republicans have made for Lord Dampnut's abuse of power first started out with "there was no quid pro quo of any kind", no matter how guilty the line "I'd like you to do us a favour, though" seemed. This soon fell apart after multiple credible witnesses testified that there was in fact both the quid and the quo, and even Lord Dampnut's own man Sondland changed his testimony to "there might have been just a bit of quid pro quo, just a tiny little bit".
Then the excuses started to shift into Sondland, Giuliani, and Mulvaney acting alone on their own initiative without the knowledge of Lord Dampnut. Only it was immediately quite clear that this was (
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/11/08/republicans-are-throwing-giuliani-under-bus-theres-problem/) equally ridiculous, since Lord Dampnut personally ordered military aid to be withheld and Pence was sent to relay the demands to Ukrainians in no uncertain terms. Not to mention all the public statements and testimony to the contrary and the phone call where Lord Dampnut pressured Zelensky.
Now the new defence seems to be that a crime is not a crime when you fail to achieve your goals:

(
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nikki-haley-says-she-doesnt-think-trump-will-be-removed-from-office-2019-11-08/)
Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said she doesn't believe President Trump will be impeached and removed from office. She addressed the impeachment inquiry in an interview with "CBS Evening News" anchor Norah O'Donnell on Thursday, calling impeachment "the death penalty" for a public official.
"You're gonna impeach a president for asking for a favor that didn't happen and- and giving money and it wasn't withheld?" Haley said. "I don't know what you would impeach him on. And look, Norah, impeachment is, like, the death penalty for a public official."
"When you look at the transcript, there's nothing in that transcript that warrants the death penalty for the president," she said, referring to a summary of a call President Trump had in July with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

To be fair, it is still slightly better than one of their earlier arguments that the US constitution is unconstitutional.

LOL, and you believe that posting "statistics" that are labeled as "n/a" and "estimated" somehow proves ANYthing? Feel free to pretend you somehow know more than residents do about the fence, and while you're at it, perhaps you can tell ME what my "motives" really are. SMH ...

Rudy Giuliani, who by some miracle, is still Trump's lawyer, has beefed up the Impeachment Response Team with a couple of new additions. One is Matt Whitaker, who was AG for about two Scarmuccis. Before that he was a principle operator in a patent grift (World Patent Marketing), which was fined $26 million for scamming customers. The other member of the legal team is Pamela Bondi, former Florida AG, who suddenly withdrew from the lawsuit against Trump University, right after Trump funneled an illegal campaign contribution to her, ironically through the now disgraced Trump Foundation.
Ha ha! April Fools! Gottcha!
Except it's not April, it's true.

When Trump goes low, Giuliani goes lower.
