Trump told the author of Trump Nation during a lawsuit for defamation he had recorded their conversations. Looks like the tapes never existed and he was just trying to intimidate him. @ 5.25 min.
Christ, can he fire the guy who controls the nukes?

The much-hyped US House race from Georgia went to the Republican in a tight race (nearly identical to how that same district voted in the presidential election). The leftie media was all over this race as a repudiation of Trump. FAIL. The Dems are backtracking now like it's no big deal.
Eventually the Dems will have to come to grips with the fact that "We're not Trump" is not necessarily going to be a successful strategy to get their candidates elected. They remain leaderless and without message.

Dudes,
Cant help but think that the Trump admin is just an extension of the last stage euphoria phase of the financial repression that we have been seing since the financial crisis. They, (i wont mention who) needed someone in there with bluster who didn't genuinely give a fuck about the little guy so as to squeeze the remaining last drops out for the Wall st bankers.
It's like capitalism is devouring in on itself and at some point something has to give.
Warren Buffett says GOP healthcare plan is a huge tax cut for the rich.
''Berkshire Hathaway Inc Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday fumed that healthcare costs are eating away at the U.S. economy like "tapeworm" and said the Republican approach to overhaul Obamacare is a tax cut for the rich.
The U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday narrowly approved a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare, a victory for Republican President Donald Trump who has called the 2010 law a "disaster."
Speaking at Berkshire's annual shareholders' meeting in Omaha, Buffett said his federal income taxes last year would have gone down 17 percent had the new law been in effect.
"So it is a huge tax cut for guys like me," he said. "And when there's a tax cut, either the deficit goes up or they get the taxes from somebody else."
The Republican bill would repeal most of the taxes that paid for the law formally known as the Affordable Care Act. The party's leadership has promised that the new American Health Care Act, which faces a likely overhaul and uncertain passage in the Senate, would address growing healthcare costs.
Buffett said rising healthcare costs are crippling the competitiveness of U.S. companies abroad.
Unlike in many other countries where much of healthcare spending is publicly financed, employers provide health insurance coverage for nearly half of Americans and often face sky-rocketing rates.
Buffett said healthcare costs have risen much faster in the United States than in the rest of the world and "will go up a lot more."
"Medical costs are the tapeworm of American economic competitiveness," he said. "That is a problem this society is having trouble with and is going to have more trouble with."
Buffett is a Democrat who vocally supported Hillary Clinton's unsuccessful bid for the presidency against Trump. The fourth richest man in the world with a net worth totaling $74.3 billion, according to Forbes magazine, Buffett has vowed to donate nearly his entire fortune to charity.
Berkshire Vice Chairman Charlie Munger added that he thinks neither political party "can think rationally" about healthcare because they "hate each other so much."''

Oh dear. More nutjob conspiracy theories, carefully packaged in a continued obsession about financial crises. I won't bother guessing who 'they' is. It will be the jews. It's always the jews with you guys.
Meanwhile, Trumpcare won't pass. Too many Republicans are against it. Trump doesn't really believe in it anyway, and I doubt he could talk lucidly about what it contains. His sole political ideology is to be the Obama antithesis.

Trump has this morning responded to criticism from MSNBC journalists by tweeting about how said journalist followed him around Mar-a-Lago at New Years, bleeding from a facelift.
Americans - this is your president. This isn't a 19 year old hillbilly bitching about a an exgirlfriend. This is the President of the United States using an official communication channel (yes, tweets are official communications) to attack a female journalist's appearance.

I know I'm unloveable. You don't have to tell me. I don't have much in my life, but take it - it's yours.

I haven't read any of this thread because we get so much American bullshit news on Canada that just never could read even more on here.
But just to say he stoops to some shit about a face lift?
And then the white house defends that with "that's what the American voters voted for" a fighter.
Ya sure. The land of the Kardashians, My 600 pound life, Mob housewives, and The apprentice?
Wish the fuck it was THE GONG SHOW at the white house. I'd have gonged his fucking ass outta there.

Calling for a revolution!’: Trump fans ‘triggered’ after NPR tweets out the Declaration of Independence
For 29 years, National Public Radio’s “Morning Edition” has celebrated the Fourth of July with a reading of the Declaration of Independence by hosts, reporters, newscasters and commentators.
This testament to the nation’s founding document has previously proved uncontroversial. But that changed in the year 2017.
After NPR tweeted the accompanying text of the declaration line by line, Donald Trump backers (seemingly unaware of the source document) accused the media organization of playing partisan politics and attacking the president.
“So, NPR is calling for a revolution,” Twitter user @JustEsrafel wrote.
“Propaganda is that all you know?” another asked.
Some even taunted NPR over Trump’s budget proposal, which slashes endowments for the arts and humanities, insisting the media organization should lose federal funding for its allegedly subversive rhetoric.
(...)
Despite pledging to stay out of politics, the unelected, unqualified handbag designer and daughter in chief, Ivanka Trump, has today taken her father's place at some G20 world leader's meetings, sat next to Theresa May and Xi JinPing, while her fellow . . ummmmm . . world leaders discussed issues like African development.
Welcome to the new norm.
I am going to send my teenage daughter to work next week instead of me.
