OFFICIAL: Donald Trump thread.

[1bad65]

76% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck
50% of workers in the country make $30k or less
Roughly 30 million Americans don't have health insurance
Over a trillion in student loan debt

Can you give me two Trump policies that have helped the middle class?

You addressed not one of his points.

Your cheerleading is getting pretty bad lately.

You were one of the more rational superfans (which is admittedly like being one of the taller midgets ), but you are devolving fast into a typical NPC superfan cheerleader type.

If this continues, I'm giving you fair warning you'll be on my Ignore List soon.

You need to start addressing people's points and not deflecting and obfuscating, and you need to start replying in your own words as opposed to mindlessly repeating team talking points verbatim.

[Tomjas]

Oh no

Brother, I've sat back and watch how you conduct yourself and do business. I don't have to peel through layers and layers of text to know what you're saying is truth.

I don't even touch this thread since I have no vested interest. Like you said, I'm not a Republican or Democrat either, but I know the history of boxingscene and it's no coincidence that many of the guys that support Trump are guilty of being pretty radical supremacists in other threads. So it's no surprise when I hear you tell me you're having issues in this thread.

That said, keep speaking truth and backing it up with facts. All they can do is plead with each other not to talk to you once you do that

That's their only defence, which doesn't sound like much. Translation - their house is standing on twigs.

I don’t think he is having issues. He’s doing just fine

[Don Pichardo]

Original post #33379: "revenue is almost always up", which it is. It's only been down five times since 1960.



Yes, let's.

Your tactics aint gonna fly here with someone who actually knows policy, and politics.

Get em!

[Chollo Vista]

I don’t think he is having issues. He’s doing just fine

This is true. I'm gonna start calling him Thanostyny

[Don Pichardo]

Oh no

It happens when u speak the truth. Lords laid it down. Those fact he laid cannot he refuted.

Trump interview: Election commission issues warning after president admits he would take information on rivals from foreign powers

'I would not have thought that I needed to say this'

Andrew Buncombe15 hours ago

The head of America’s election commission has issued a stern warning about illegal interference in the electoral process, a day after the president said he would likely accept damaging information about a rival from a foreign nation.

Barely 24 hours after Donald Trump caused jaws to drop by saying he may not contact the FBI if approached by a foreign country with information that could help his 2020 reelection bid, the chair of the Federal Election Commission (FEC) said it was against the law to “solicit, accept or receive” anything of value from a foreign national in relation to an election.

Posting a statement on Twitter, a statement she said she “would not have thought I needed to say”, Ellen Weintraub apparently responded to Mr Trump, without naming him.

“Let me make something 100 per cent clear to the American public and anyone running for public office,” she wrote.

“It is illegal for any person to solicit, accept, or receive anything of value from a foreign national in connection with a US election.”

The Democrat challengers to Trump in 2020

Ms Weintraub, who was appointed to the commission by George W Bush in 2002 and elected its chair for 2019, said the distaste of foreign interference in elections was “not a novel concept” for the country.

“Our Founding Fathers sounded the alarm about ‘foreign interference, intrigue, and influence’,” she wrote.

“They knew that when foreign governments seek to influence American politics, it is always to advance their own interests, not America’s.”

In an interview with ABC News, part of which were broadcast on Wednesday, Mr Trump suggested he would accept dirt on an opponent offered by a foreign country.

“I think maybe you do both,” he said, asked if he would call the FBI or accept any material.

“I think you might want to listen, there isn’t anything wrong with listening. If somebody called from a country, Norway, [and said] ‘we have information on your opponent’ – oh, I think I’d want to hear it.”

Bill Maher believes that Donald Trump will refuse to leave even if he loses the 2020 election

When it was pointed out that FBI director Christopher Wray said last month in congressional testimony his organisation would want to hear about any foreign election meddling, the president dismissed it.

“The FBI director is wrong, because frankly it doesn’t happen like that in life,” Mr Trump said. “Now maybe it will start happening, maybe today you’d think differently.”

He said he had “seen a lot in his life” but that he had never called the FBI.

“In my whole life. You don’t call the FBI. You throw somebody out of your office, you do whatever you do,” he said. “Oh, give me a break – life doesn’t work that way.”

Mr Trump’s interview sparked widespread outcry, and more demands from Democrats that he be impeached, a move House speaker Nancy Pelosi has so far resisted.

On Thursday she told reporters Mr Trump’s comments represented “an ‘assault on our democracy”.
