All Trump has to do is budge an inch on DACA, and this would all be over.

Problem is: nobody can trust him when he budges an inch.. he's perfectly willing to welch on anything he's agreed to.

like being invited to a catered event at a rest area on the New Jersey Turnpike.

Gravitas right there I tell ya..

They furloughed the cook but not the guy who lights the candles?

He might have had an undocumented worker brought in from one of his trash palaces

Cold Big Macs.

That's how Donny rolls!

Wow... Oxford is a prestigious institution. Who knew?

They make shoes, right?

Cummings made the accusation in an interview with "60 Minutes" aired on Sunday. He said that he believes Trump is making "a lot of money" off the presidency.

Just watched a segment on the local teevee news, featuring DJT saying "The democrats refuse to fund border security"

This is incorrect.

"Democrats" refuse to fund a stupid wall.

Dems need to shout that difference from the rooftops.. in very simple terms.

I cannot imagine what it would be like to be a translator for trump...

Я понятия не имею, о чем он говорит

Will the WH go full Jim Acosta on Pirro?

IIRC calling the translator on the carpet is a slippery slope (how's THAT for a mixed metaphor!)

In general, it would cause issues with candor in the conversation between parties.

In trump's case, it just means he'll use a translator provided by Putin.

yabut, DJT just needs the numbers. He doesn't care what the numbers are attached to.

as in "the tariffs have created 35 billion voters who support the wall"

hmmm.. someone should code up a Wifehorn version of Alexa ..

I could see that as a hackathon project

Trump understands that conservative media personalities like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh hold the keys to his base -- and so it's unlikely he's going to stray from them on the gov't shutdown / border issue. Democrats are effectively in effect negotiating with the right-wing media. [/quote] I thi...

speaking mac n cheese, I have my first attempt at Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese in the oven as I type.. probably not a total hit, I mashed half a dozen recipes together.. but it is something I want to work out.. squash is big 'round these parts..

The president denied knowing about his former campaign manager Paul Manafort’s sharing of 2016 polling data with a Russian-linked operative. “No, I didn’t know anything about it, nothing about it.”

hmm... where have I heard those words before?

calling it what it is...

The following is an old story due to George Bernard Shaw. It seems more appropriate with Groucho however. GROUCHO (to woman seated next to him at an elegant dinner party): Would you sleep with me for ten million dollars? WOMAN (giggles and responds): Oh, Groucho, of course I would. GROUCHO; How abo...

Wouldn't such a regulation be government over-reach?

I mean, this restricts legal action against a certain class of people.. could landlords etc then choose to not deal with that class of people?
