Speaking of things that haven't aged well. . .

The internet is forever, baybee:

Mueller ain't coming, Mikey
By the way, it's remarkable how punitive our friends on the portside are.

It's too bad that it hasn't changed with Moore. It's always been about him and the issue has almost always been a prop for him to try to stand on to garner attention for himself. I still say that if it comes down to anyone, and Trump, Ivanka would be the only one who stands a chance. Maybe Jared, but it goes back to her influence over Trump.

What is "it," in this context?

"What is 'it,' in this context?" I had the same question.

But Michael Moore never fails to amuse me. One of my favorite YouTube videos is of Milton Freedman schooling a young Moore on economics.

Hadn't seen that video before. Thanks for sharing it, John!

If it boils down to Trump going down, or anyone else, it'd be anyone else. His oldest daughter is the only one that he'd consider falling on a sword for. I can't blame him. I'm the same exact way. But there aren't oven ten open investigations into any of my practices, and I don't have any children. That I know of, on both counts.

He’s not going down for anything at this point. Could he do something stupid and get in trouble for it? Sure, but this is over. And the IG is coming.

It is. Until nineteen Senate Republicans have enough. It'll be a few more or a few less than that in 2021. Pence wants to be president too. It'll depend on when he understands that he can't win a general election, and you couple that with the day that the Republicans turn their back on Trump, it'll make the shrieking of all of those college kids seem like a fire alarm in death valley.

Those days are coming. And republicans can be a lot more focused and ruthless than us libs are. We find out then if Trump can is really the best negotiator that has ever been in the history of time like he claims that he is. Or if he's just really good at selling the idea of having really good negotiating skills. You and I both know the answer to that one. It's a real shame that he never learned how to play the long con.

You have seen the Democratic field, right? Tell me, of that group, who beats Trump.

It's a real shame that he never learned how to play the long con.

I first became aware of Trump about 1982. His entire career has been a long con.

Petercorp said...

I meant Pence as far as not being able to win a general.

At least you're aware of the con. But I was under the impression that a long con required details, but I'm just glad to see that you're cynical. Hopefully more so as the days press on. No such thing as too much of that.
