New From Seth Meyers: Trump Attacks the 2020 Democrats [VIDEO]
Seth takes a closer look at President Trump attacking Democrats running for president and those investigating him in Congress.
Seth takes a closer look at President Trump attacking Democrats running for president and those investigating him in Congress.
If the Trump rally managed to turn out 5,000 supporters that would come out to something like 2,500 wits.
I started listening to the Trump rally on Fox. OMG. He’s completely ludicrous. He’s now talking about tied up women.
So continuing from downstairs, the question of “Will Trump veto it?” is less important than “Does the GOP have the stomach for another shutdown?” If the answer is “No,” then it doesn’t matter what he will do, either he’s going to sign the fucking bill and admit defeat or have the veto overridden and thus face defeat at the hands of his own party. There is no scenario in all this where he can convincingly bullshit a majority of voters that the DNC are responsible for a second shutdown.

Tied up women with duct tape? Quite an odd obsession he has there.
“Three women tied up in the back seat of the car.”
The duct tape is left out because of the sophistication of this audience.
“How about the word ‘caravan’? That was one of mine.”

I’m not much of a sports watcher but Twitter just informed me James Harden has just scored 11 points in about 99 seconds, extending his 30 point a game streak to 30 games.
Which is pretty amazing.

He will beat it. Guaranteed. He’s a piece of shit bully.
re: #20 jaunte
He’s not that amazing. The refs give him every opportunity to score with impunity. It’s disgusting. Good player, but the ref ass kissing takes much away.

Enrique D Aguilar, fire public information officer, said no special permission was given by the Fire Department, and the Coliseum had about 6,500 people in it during the president’s rally — at capacity, but well within its standard allowance.

And now that I think back on my genealogy, my dad as well as my mom (were she still alive today) could also vote, and they wouldn’t vote for Trump, either. If anything causes my dad to have a heart attack despite having one in his 50s with triple bypass surgery and changing his lifestyle that has kept him alive and very well for the past 20 years since then, it will be Trump.

That would be the smartest move for him; just brazen out the criticism from Coulter and flat out lie to his base. He does it all the time.

You can’t get that many supporters for both sides into one city with the tension in the air and not have them come together.
I hope not, but 2020 could be as wild as 1968, or worse. We are just getting started.

It’s going to take the residents of those areas to say, “We live here. You’re lying about everything. We don’t want your wall.” And all of us who grew up spending time on the border saying it’s bullshit. Over and over and over. There is a hardcore base that will never believe us but some of it is just pure ignorance.

The scary thing is, it isn’t totes a joke. When he was still in opposition to Obama, he actually _did_ say that anyone committing voter fraud should be deported and have their citizenship stripped, according to the FactCheck. The only thing that turns this to a joke is the explicit quotes and the words “illegal immigrants”.
So none, none dumb?
