Is it getting hot in the kitchen Donald?
What a week to be POTUS. Man oh man, Donald hated the McCain week of tribute, this H.W. week must have been a bitch and then you add the two court filings by Mueller. All the living presidents and their wives eagerly participating in the services for HW and Donald being Donald, sit's hands crossed with a when is this going to get over look on his face. Then there is the stock market this week, which he took all the credit for when it was doing so well, then the two court filings by Mueller. POTUS isn't going to be sleeping well, it's all night TV and twitter now boys and girls.
He already started venting on twitter, I'm sure that's a big shock to us all. Unbelievable how he raves about people when they join his team are suddenly they are dumb as a rock (Russ T) when they speak out against him. Tillerson was anything but dumb as a rock, but POTUS is looking more and more like he is.
He's probably thankful a sitting president has never been charged criminally, because if they could he'd be sleeping less than he is now.

You sound more upbeat about all that than you do about the stock market.

The same day that Trump hit back Tillerson with childish Petty insults we learned that President Bush's Secretary of State Baker rubbed President Bush's feet on his deathbed and cried as he eulogized his friend. I'd be surprised if anyone ever did that for President Trump.

there is
no arguing that, that’s as big a contrast as you can make between two men. Trump has some tender moments ( held the face of a wounded soldier who had no hands, he kissed bob dole), but those are lost by his boorish antics. yours was a very effective post

If your best friend was dying you wouldn't rub his feet if that eased his pain.

so if the money that trump used to pay off mistresses is a campaign contribution that must be disclosed, how bout the slush funds set up for congressmen to do the same exact thing? why isn’t the
media demanding that the congressmen who spent that money to pay off
mistresses, be indicted as well?
Congress had a slush fund for this exact purpose.

When the second mueller shoe finally drops I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s like a football play with multiple flags by the defense, which one gets taken and by who will be fun for me anyway to watch. One flag may be taken in Washington and the other will be picked up in the NY justice system.

WDMSO, please tell us, if Trumps payoff to his mistress is legally a campaign contribution, why aren't the payouts from the office of compliance, also a campaign contribution? Please explain the difference?
Also, if Trump buys toothpaste or gets a haircut, does he need to disclose that money as a self-financed campaign contribution? Is everything that impacts appearance or image, now a campaign contribution that must be disclosed?
