Defenders seem to keep wanting to point to Truman's overhaul of the White House, but that's because it was structurally troubled. It was a necessity.

No one else has done, to the degree, that Trump is doing now...and that's why it's getting this attention.

This is Trump being Trump. Leaving his stain on everything.

It's actually in such bad taste to build a structure that will actually be bigger than the residence itself.

Looks really bad w/ Trump talking about it everyday, getting money from doners while fed workers aren't getting paid.

Bad, bad look from all ends.

He WILL go down as the most corrupt president in our history.

People are going to do studies and documentaries on how it actually was allowed to happen.

Leave it to Trump to ruin a national residence.

I'm sure it will look gaudy because, well, that's Trump.

But know what would be actually funny? The next Dem president should shrink it down and remodel the entire ballroom......I know that's what I would do.

Would kill Trump.

I live near NY and would listen to Curtis and Kuby radio show on WABC at lunch (pre COVID). What a great show it was, and loved the 1pm hour where they dove into Trump and Russia every day!!!. Kuby was a liberal, but Sliwa is no Trump-lover as far as I know.

I don't know if he's qualified to be mayor, but he surely has the most street cred and knows the city like no one else (of those three).

As far as John Catsimatidis, he's a POS. Trump boot licker.

Party of Law and Order continues to sink and embarrass itself.

But the real problem is a large faction of the country likes it.

Lying under oath**

Much more to come out in terms of evidencea and defense, but this seems to be problem for Bolton.

HOWEVER, much like the mortgage fraud case and lying under case, you could bring charges like this against many different people on either side of the isle.

So yeah this seems like weaponization but Bolton could be in trouble in terms of being guilty.

When this term is up.

When this term is up? This is how bad it is.

When there's talk of Trump running for a third term, NO ONE in the Republican Party shuts it down.

Think about that? Whatever you think of Trump, what in the name of God brings up to the point where he gets to run for a third term?

The infactuation with this guy will go down in history as one of the great mysteries.

Why let him fire her - especially when there is already precedent?

Keep her in the position, and if its overturned, then fire her.

That makes more sense to me.

Just like in sports - you get suspended but if you appeal - you still get to play. IDK.

"Putin let me down"

Imagine a Democratic President using those words.

Here's Kimmel's quote:

"We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

.
You know, you could interpret that quote as Kimmel himself not denying the shooter isn't MAGA, but that MAGA will go to any length - factual or nonfactual - to not be associated in any way with the killer. And there is proof of this from social media posts and podcasters, which can be looney.

An example would be "Obama and the deep state are behind this because Kirk was a Presidential candidate".

It was narrowed to the women he was specifically referencing. He was pointing out their admissions that they were the product of AA.

Of course he prefaced that by commenting on a black customer service rep who is "mornonic" - and how did she get there.

And this wrap up that "they're coming out and they're saying it for us ... You do not have the brain processing power" is not what pro-AA are saying about it. That's what he's saying. That's Kirk's view.

And its reasonable to infer that his net encompasses more than just those three.

ABC/Sinclair/NextStar have a right to fire someone who is not meeting their standards of employment - have no issue with that.

The issue is - Trump has both on video and social media talked about "Kimmel is next". Long before the Kirk assasination.

Then the FCC chair says we can "do it the easy way, or the hard way".

We also know NextStar is trying to acquire other stations and needs FCC approavl (much like the CBS/Paramount/Skydance/Colbert fiasco).

Kimmel fired.

If the government is putting their finger on the scale, that's wrong. And dangerous.

On the subject of whether somone doesn't want to print a poster of Kirk - it seems many conservatives online are mad at Bondi (and Matt Walsh I believe) wants her to resign.

He makes the statement that 'we have fought this, and won where you can deny services'.

What exactly is he taking about? The SC said you can do this - I think - if it's religious beliefs - but would Kirk fall into this?

So many:

The Natural

The Sting

Day of the Condor

All the President's Men (good one for MAGA to brush up on)

The Way We Were

The bizarre thing is, with all hand wringing about who is saying what and you've to watch what you say after the Kirk assasination, Kilmeade goes and says that!!!!

I mean, I think the guy is a smart guy - so maybe he really does believe it?

You'd think a suspension should at least be in order.

Up to the employeer, but sheesh, do the right thing.

If I produce that program, I'm ------ embarrassed.

Don't know what made me think of that today.

Made me think of when Trump said Liz Chaney should be put in front of a firing squad and shot in the face.

That's more authentic.

hey, at least we can all agree he's an American.

Unfortunately, the Goveror of Utah is dissapointed (cringe)

Trump this morning on Fox and Friends:

"The radicals on the right are radical because they don't want to see crime".

LOL

Translation please, Trump apologists LOL

But I completely agree. Trump could tamp this down if he wanted to.

But he doesn't want to, it's right in his wheelhouse and why he is just a horrid person.

Trump as a person has the worst characteritics you'd want in a leadership role.

CNN reporting they have the weapon and believe they have tracked movement of the shooter (college aged).......not sure how they determine age but cell phone would be for movement.

Having the weapon is ideal.

It amazes me how much time people spend following someone they disagree with.

Know thy enemy? I mean, it's kinda important to not live in a bubble lol

I saw one student (think it was from FL) who talked about what Charlie Kirk meant to her and her friends/group.

She basically said he taught us that we were "the cool kids again". Must have said "cool" 3x in thi segement.

I just found that very demoralizing that she couldn't say anything significant on why the liked Kirk so much.
