The next time russia 'attacks' us pretend they're undocumented immigrants to a DNC server
Evangelicals, LOL. Again, you people are sheep with zero principles who are ruled by tribal politics. You dont really stand for anything.
Look, this polititard has no idea my stance on undocumented immigrants but since I'm not an ignorant sheep who blindly follows his side he assumes I'm ok with undocumented immigrants. These clowns are pathetic.
one of the jackasses from borats show just resigned. how do so many idiots fall for his shit.
More laughing at your hypocrisy than outraged. We all knew he was trash, we also know how you would react if it were anyone else.
You got a link to the video because I watched his interview tonight after the tape was released and that's not what he actually said. Everyone can be made to look terrible when you lie and put words in their mouth.
He said exactly what he said from the beginning. That Trump said "Don't pay with cash" and "check". He never claimed that a missing part was the only part that exonerated Trump.
What he actually did say is that if the conversation on the recording would have continued and not been stopped you would have heard the two men further discuss a check and not cash which further exonerates Trump on top of saying "Don't pay with cash".

"Giuliani told Laura Ingraham, host of “The Ingraham Angle,” that he found out the tape was leaked at 6 p.m. Tuesday. He said Trump's legal team listened numerous times to the tape and determined that the then-candidate told Cohen, “Don’t pay with cash.”
“Cohen then interrupts,” Giuliani said. “And says, “No, no, no, I got it.’ And then you hear — distinctly … if you’re careful and you slow (the tape) it down — ‘check.’ And then the tape quickly cuts off the tape.
Giuliani admitted that the audio was muffled, but said the rest of the conversation -- had the recording not been stopped -- would have been even more “exculpatory,” from the point of view of the president about not paying with cash but instead with a check.
“The president does bring up cash,” Giuliani said. “But he said, ‘Don’t pay with cash.’”

Hillary says ‘someone will definitely pay’
Bartender then suicides himself in the back of the head
Hillary at Central Park this past Saturday or Sunday. Some folks thought she had been sick.
No one cares dude lol. Its almost embarrassing that you think this will hurt Trump. Its a total nothingburger.
When the talking heads at MSNBC can't find a way to spin it you know it's a strike out.
Samantha Bee:Ivanka is a feckless c—t.
The left: Haha. She’s a comedian.
Michelle Wolf: Trump’s children should’ve been aborted. Ivanka is herpes. Ivanka is vaginal mesh and a tumor.
The left: Haha. They deserve it.
James Gunn makes thousands of pedophilia tweets.
The left: OMG, they’re just dark jokes.
Also the left: THIS IS A FAKE INTERVIEW. I’m reporting this as fake news to Facebook.
Best thing about the tape is a couple losers stayed up all night ranting about it.
If tariffs add only $2B in revenue, then that's all the tariff amount is.
That's why they fought it tooth and nail. They knew people would see the paycheck and know it was a lie.
But it's also why it was stupid. Why lie about something they know good and well people will know better
I have no clue. So dumb. They should resign for being stupid if nothing else

Do Americans really want Democratic Socialism?
If you don’t like President Trump’s economic policies, you might have an even worse choice in upcoming elections: socialism.
As Democrats try to figure out how to counter Trump, they’re lining up behind some Bernie Sanders ideas from 2016, including “Medicare for all” and free college for everybody: Appealing ideas, as long as you don’t consider the cost. Unspeakably expensive, if you do.
Except that’s not what Americans want. Americans’ impression of the federal government has fallen sharply and consistently since 2002, and it’s not just a Trump phenomenon. Only 18% of Americans say they trust the government these days, a portion that’s only slightly lower than during Barack Obama’s presidency. Yet the leftist solutions to legitimate problems almost always involve huge new bureaucracies that will somehow do everything better than private-sector entities.
Trump’s tax-cut legislation polls unpopular, but that sure doesn’t mean Americans favor the huge tax hikes that would be necessary to establish or expand a vast array of new government agencies and benefits. People dislike the Trump tax cuts because they feel the wealthy benefit too much and the middle class too little. That’s not the same as “Raise my taxes to make government bigger.”
Ocasio-Cortez belongs to the Democratic Socialists of America, which dates to 1971 and supports some of the worst economic ideas in history. Here’s an example of what it stands for: “Very large, strategically important sectors of the economy — such as housing, utilities and heavy industry — would be subject to democratic planning outside the market, while a market sector consisting of worker-owned and -operated firms would be developed for the production and distribution of many consumer goods.”
That’s the old Soviet model of central planning, which has failed everywhere it has been tried because as bad as capitalist abuses can be at times, a government-run economy is infinitely worse. They still haven’t gotten the memo in Venezuela, where inflation is approaching 1 million percent because corrupt socialist leaders can’t figure out how to bake bread or pump oil. Thing is, they shouldn’t have to.
Socialism is apparently becoming trendy. At least 42 socialists are running for office this year, according to the Associated Press. In a Harvard poll, one-third of millennials said they support socialism, with capitalism edging it out by just nine percentage points. A group of liberals in Congress has drafted a “people’s budget” that would fund trillions of dollars in new federal programs and soak the rich to subsidize the poor.
Awful socialist ideas arise in response to legitimate problems. The U.S. health care system is broken and discriminatory. Quality education is too expensive. Income inequality is too severe. The Trump tax cuts did disproportionately favor the wealthy, and may be clawed back amid the next populist revolt.
But putting government in charge of the parts of capitalism that work—namely, the efficient production of most things—would wreck economic growth and lower living standards, uh, collectively. There are better ways to fix real problems, including bipartisan efforts at health and education reform, including smaller, regional programs that can be scaled up if they work.
Some Democrats, such as House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, have tried to swat down efforts to socialize the Democratic Party, aware that large blocs of pragmatic independents and other swing voters may flee just when Democrats need them the most. Maybe they should tell genuine socialists to drop the “Democratic” part.
