I'm going with 7.5


Gingrich called it the biggest mistake of his presidency(which is true I think).

Good tweet from Shapiro's feed:

I think it'll top out at a 6.8 or 7. McConnell will probably keep quiet.

I'd need a translator to understand him if he he did anyway

Shapiro's been grumpy lately

hating the left and having to defend Trump on a daily basis when it's obvious how painful it is for him is turning him into scrooge

he hasnt been defending trump, he's been attacking the left. a fine line no doubt when its 24-7 attacks on trump from the left. he adds a caveat to every sentence that Trumps rhetoric is bad, or that he's not doing himself favors, or that he's inconsistent.

do they realize that the constant bullshit we hear/read about our president is going to make most of us vote the other way? talk about election meddling....when the hell did news just not become real news and opinion pieces for the most part

Trump really scored an own goal today. I dont believe the kompromant theory though.

Imho, Trump is just so narcissistic and insecure that he cannot possibly look at the accusations of russian meddling in the 2016 election with a cool head. He sees those accusations as undermining his greatest victory, his election triumph in 2016, and thus questioning the legitimacy of his very presidency.

Not seeing how easy it would have been for him to come out of today's summit with a net neutral reaction from the public, by going somewhat but not strongly against Putin, and how he could even have scored political points by just pretending to confront Putin in a tough manner, really shows how shitty his political instincts sometimes are. :wallbash:

Uh, oh. I guess the hysterical lefties are out in force tonight.


Couple thoughts...

1. Is the EU getting one over on the US in trade deals? Yep.
2. What actual, rock solid proof is there, that Russia hacked our election? None. Even a kid today can fake an IP.
3. WHY did the DNC not fix there server, when they were warned about the security leak, in late 2015 or early 2016. And as someone said, why was this server not seized?
4. We already know that some if not all of the Obama administration did collude with Russia... the Uranium One deal, and the the Clinton foundation received $145 million from Russia.
5. We know the left is scared to death of the November elections.
6. We know that Trump had a bilateral smile in your face , say nothing summit with Russia.


I'm kind of confused here. We let the fact that the US under the Obama administration gave away 20% of our Uranium reserves to Russia, go absolutely un-noticed and unpunished.
Yet those claiming to be wise, think that Trump did....something "treasonous" by talking with Putin peacefully?

Does the common policeman inform the crook of all he is in fact doing to apprehend the crook?


I've noticed some very strange timing about a lot of things.

Strange Uranium One deal with the Obama admin and Russia. Then, the DNC is informed that their servers are insecure, and not oly are the not fixed or upgraded, but they aren't seized for evidence. Then, 33,000 classified emails are destroyed by Hillary or the DNC, and nothing is done about that. THEN the intelligence folk accuse Russia of hacking the election on Obama's watch, and nothing is done about it.
Not only is nothing done about it, but the intelligence folk, make no mention of anything concerning the Uranium One deal, the insecure servers, the destroyed emails, etc.


Seems to me, that accusing Trump of being treasonous for not duking it out with Russia, is kind of ludicrous when all the crap the DNC and the left have been up to goes unregarded.
It kind of looks to me like the problems these days aren't with Putin or Russia, but are here within our own political system.


Yes, there has been treasonous behavior in recent history. It also seems that at the heart of it is the left, the Obama admin and or the DNC.


We have 3 or 4 screamingly obvious breaks with the law, and with our govt.'s rules and they aren't hardly remarked on. But then Trump doesn't scream at Russia, and he a traitor?

I've personally seen ZERO proof that Russia hacked our election. I've seen a lot of accusations, but no proof. I have seen all BUT solid proof that the Dems have been up to some really sleazy if not down right treasonous activity, that no one is even looking at.

I see the same people that are running this collusion/hacking investigation were also deeply involved in the Uranium One deal, the lost emails, the lack of concern about that DNC server. Makes me kind of curious.
But don't let me intrude on your ranting... carry on.



/e Inb4 I am summarily executed by the left of PaRD, for having a thought that doesn't agree with theirs. :D

I don't think so. Ben is a conservative who defends what he believes in. I think he gives Trump some leeway but he's often critical of him when he does something stupid or wrong.

Today, the world watched Mr. Trump publicly collude with Vladimir Putin to conceal Russia’s attack on our democracy. For the sake of our country and its safety, now is the time to #ImpeachTrump.
