Yeah, I paused it at the beginning because I had to go do something; I'm about five minutes behind.

He's being all nice to the Dems because he knows they're gunning for him. Mueller is coming and you can't stop it, jackass.

The most important thing so far is his threat of using the Senate to attack the House if they don't cooperate on the investigation.

"We have other elements of a wall... that are, pretty nasty." The f***? o_O

EDIT: He's mad now. Here it comes. Tell us how you really feel.

Democrats creating a caricature of reality and attacking it as if it were really what Trump is, again. Meanwhile, how many innocent thousands died in Iraq due to our actions? Hillary is a good decision maker...

I have given you a concrete example of the seditious act Trump contemplates, the usurpation of the judicial branches and taking over the Constitution.

BTW, Trump is being eaten alive and deservedly so.

Now we've proceeded to the food flinging toddler stage of the conference. Jesus what a fucking child.

now he's ranting about how he can't release his tax returns because people wouldn't understand them.

Translation: oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit

Interesting read on exit polls.

Some conclusions I wasn’t expecting and some I was.

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/11/trump-house-midterms-exit-poll-takeaways.html
Ten takeaways from exit polling: (article delves deeper into each item)

  1. President Trump cost Republicans the House
  2. Brett Kavanaugh hurt Republicans more than helped
  3. #Metoo didn’t help Dems much
  4. Gun Issue hurt Republicans
  5. Violence hurt Republicans but not much
  6. Russia Fizzled
  7. Voters don’t share Trumps hardline on immigration
  8. The problem for Dems on race is complacency not hate
  9. The economy cut both ways
  10. Republicans might be digging themselves an ideological hole.

Just an fyi, fake president; Nixon released his taxes while he was under audit.

Say what you will, he's not as bad as that radical zionist Jesus, that wife beater Gandhi, or that long-time jailbird felon Mandela.

I would support Zionists, wife beaters, and felons for office. I would not support someone who voted for a war of aggression that killed so many people.

Oh, Bj200! You are simply too pure for this planet!

I thought I might get this. I think it's strange that when someone decides that the blood of half a million Iraqis is simply too much to look past, they're accused of being purists. Just curious, are there any absolutes that you have, any lines you wouldn't cross?

Maybe it's just the anger and frustration speaking, that the party continues to favor violent statists like Biden over progressives. Maybe when push comes to shove, I'll think the way I did in 2016 and decide it's still the best way to oppose Trump and the Republicans, and that opposing that evil still the most important thing. I don't know.

Congress doesn't have the resources to understand Trump's taxes or business structures. There are many fine forensic people who have done more difficult things and that is what he fears.

I've seen shithouse fires with more restraint than that presser.

Lol your support of Bernie over Hillary worked out well for you when your choice was between Hillary and trump.

You continue to miss the forest through the trees.

Gandhi did a lot worse than beat his wife. He raped many underage girls. He used to have young girls sleep in his bed naked. His stated reason was to tempt himself so he could fight against it. Not always did he win that fight though.

I think Mandela was a much better person than Gandhi, even if you want to argue accomplishments. I would say Biden was better than Gandhi in terms of quality of person.
