Welcome back.

"The Senate won't play ball, this is theater.

Possibly. Trump has them in a tight choke hold. Problem is, the Senate GOPers are also aware that the Blue Wave is going to cost them seats in November, and likely the majority, if they don't play ball with the House.

Senators are getting the same earfull of expletives from their constituents as the House over the new cost of health care.

Plus, Trump's poll numbers in the tank and getting worse. Trump is not an asset to their re-election. He's a liability now.

It's decision time.

More like Trump Real Estate Development Company in Saudi Arabia, Jarad Kushner, CEO & CFO.

Trump has a nose for where money flows like water.

FRESNO

Would they dare? Or are they just playing Chicken?

Expiration of the extensions will also result in a lot of Republicans losing their seats in Congress.

That is, unless Trump (and ICE) have some trumped up plan to declare Martial Law a month before the midterms.

That's always an option. Trump is most dangerous when he's desperate.

"Trump: When will polls reflect greatest economy in history."

I want to know: when is Trump going to find out that his staff isn't telling him the truth, so he doesn't go off half-cocked and lose what little bit is left of his mind.

"So, more grift from Trump Inc, taking advantage of the occupancy of the Oval Office?"

That's old news.

It's what Trump and his whole family do for a living ~ not to mention his insider coattailers and Department Heads using their taxpayer funded jet planes to meet up with their girlfriends for booty calls.

REDIAL

If you want to catch a thief, you have to think like a thief . . . . according to the FBI.

And Trump always has a ulterior motive. To answer your question, we just have to think like him to figure out what he has to gain. In this case he's giving his useless son, his namesake, a leg up in the "family business," if you get my drift.

REDIAL

"What do rare earth minerals mean to a short term "thinker" like Lewzer?"

Other than a foot in the door, the word "rare" also translates into price control and that translates into money in the bank. for Donald Trump, Jr. new startup company called Venture Capital. who, aside from investors, just got a $620 Million contract from the Pentagon to boost domestic rare earth magnet production which could easily be transferred to Venezuela in the guise of "domestic" once the land in Venezuela is "owned" by the U.S.

Ya' think?

I'm not so sure Trump's end game in Venezuela is primarily about oil. Trump is known for hiding behind distractions while he sneaks in unnoticed to get what he really wants . . . the real honey pot . . . Venezuela's rare earth mineral deposits.

Just follow the bouncing ball.

If you recall, Trump made a grab (and lost) for Ukraine's rare earth mineral deposits.

One way to get what he wants, short of assassination, he has to starve the current regime out of office.

LEE

Trump doesn't give a ---- about Africa."

Trump has a serious mental illness, actually an infantile pathology, that doesn't allow him to feel empathy for anybody but himself. He never outgrew his Terrible Twos.

Only one of many, including a pathological liar.

What, if anything, does that mean for this site?

In the mad rush to apply maximum pain on immigrants, it appears that Quick Draw McTrump didn't give his plan to deny birthright a thorough vetting.

"I'd rather the President take his job and the constitution seriously faithfully enforce the Law and not destroy lives and property and not kill anyone or let people die than have anyone "win" anything."

Join the club. What you're asking for is the exact opposite of everything Trump stands for.

He'll give up when they throw the last shovel full of dirt on his grave. . . . or he gets locked up in a rubber room, whichever comes first.

RIGHT/TRITE

Rack one up for good genes.

LAMP

I predicted many years ago on this site that Trump's tombstone would say "BUT I REALLY WON!" ~ LOL

He's rackin'em up.

JPW

What causes some states like WI to have below average IQ so widely?

The usual scapegoat is "There's something in the water."

"he'll find some way to destroy the illustrious honor of the Award.

Knowing Trump penchant for revenge, he'll sic his dogs on a Committee member to fabricate some dirt to claim the 2025 award was wrought with fraud.

Anything to vindicate himself.

And did he actually drink them all?

That was my question, too.

It sounds too impossible to be true.

Unless someone was waiting in his room with a funnel.

LAMP

Thanks to you, too. I could have been more clear. I just assumed everybody knew. My mistake.

To continue,I doubt that this issue is over.

Knowing with whom the Nobel Committee is dealing, I hope they're girding their loins for next year. Trump never forgets and never forgives. Case in evidence, he's still nursing his loss in the 2020 election like a it's a festering boil.

I think the Committee's funding is secure but, knowing Trump, he'll find some way to destroy the illustrious honor of the Award.

LAMP

We may never know who was bribing whom, but Trump is usually the one with his thumb on the scale.

LAMP

This is to what I was referring:

"The user is likely referring to recent events where some world leaders nominated U.S. President Donald Trump for the prize after he brokered various peace deals, in what some observers described as a way to curry favor with him or "the way to his heart". Some of these nominations were explicitly linked to the expectation of quid pro quo benefits, such as a transit corridor or favorable trade relations."

Too late, SCOTTY.

The Nobel Peace Prize has already been awarded to someone who didn't try to lie, cheat and attempt to bribe the Nobel Committee.

No one is surprised. Honesty is something Trump doesn't understand. Like a spoiled brat, (who seriously needs a trip to the woodshed) he has already hurled accusations of dishonesty at the Committee.

REIN

The bottom line is Trump's childish jealousy that derives him to wanton destruction. He is, by nature, also self-destructive.

Right now, his head is about to explode with the sense of power he thinks he's amassing combined with the terrify fear of losing it.

But the end is near. The fissures are visible.

I don't think we can count on Trump taking his own life. It's not due to cowardice but rather his fear that somebody else will get all his money.
