Trump: The First 100 Days

I mean Jesus.

As an aside, I just finished reading a manuscript for a courtroom novel the author of which didn’t know the difference between a criminal prosecution and civil litigation, the result of which being that the protagonist – who was, of course, supposed to be a lawyer – didn’t know the difference between a criminal prosecution and civil litigation. Not good.

That is just sad. You aren’t going to have to re-write that for the author are you?

The last part of this thread reminds me of an old saying: “arguing with an idiot is like playing chess with a pidgeon. No matter how much better you are at chess, the pidgeon is just gonna shit all over the board and strut around like he won.”

No matter how many times or how hard theraj’ entire argument gets completely torn apart and shit all over, he still acts like he’s right and everyone else is a fucking idiot

God no lol. It was a friend of a friend, “hey can you give advice” deal. The advice, you can imagine, was to write a book about something other than the law.

For whatever reason(s), the situation is very different in the US:

While it certainly occurs in the US, I don’t think the rate is estimated to be as high as it is in the UK. Further, as assimilation seems to proceed more rapidly and smoothly over here, I am confident such barbaric old-world practices will become ever less prevalent with time.

Similarly, it would not constitute evidence in support of the Trump allegations for me to make the point that the intelligence collection and analysis which led to Operation Neptune Spear was a fantastic and complex success (note however that the IC reforms implemented after 9/11 and Iraq [e.g., the creation of the ODNI], and the increasing emphasis on SIGINT, do indeed make Neptune Spear a better analogy).[/quote]

No but it does throw a wrench into the quality of your evidence. The CIA has had multiple blunders throughout their history, recent success doesn’t somehow undue their track record.

You speak as if you carried out quality checks at the CIA and now know first hand they’re intel collection is bullet proof.

This is what I call the Trump burn ward.

Think how many times these fools have been wrong in the past year.

Think of how many times you’ve been proven wrong just in this thread

Baby’s first PWI discussion?

The Mediocre mulatto could never have pulled this off:

Edit: This is miraculous. Gang members of Chicage want a sit down with the president on how to lower the body count.

“Donald Trump has never committed a crime.”

“Really?”

“Bill Clinton settled a sex crime once. A settlement is an admission of guilt.”

“Donald Trump settled the Trump University trial”

“That doesn’t count, we live in a litigious society.”

And their assets were completely tied together. How can you possibly know the flexibility he had in the decision making at that point? You know his father lived until 1999 right?

the obvious: You want to focus on pre-election topics because post election topics make you guys look dumber and dumber

Hey now, you can’t hold the president of the business accountable…I mean what is this, Nazi Germany?

I personally just enjoy watching mental gymnastics of this caliber.

Heres a big problem with that- By sitting down and talking or negotiating with gang heads, it lends validity to their position that they can lower the body count in exchange for social programs.

So they will stop killing people if you give them what they want.

That isn’t a valid political position, that is a hostage situation. And the only reason that gang leaders (read Drug Dealers) want to keep a swarm of federal agencies out in the first place is so that they can continue to sell dope.
