President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

Oops, there goes the dirty horrible FBI narrative. Let's see, who will be believed, Comey/McCabe and their contemporaneous notes, our pathological liar Donald Trump?

The Outsourcer-in-Chief is promoting some voodoo economics CNBC a-hole to a top economic adviser position...great. So lying on the campaign trail about being anti-trade deals wasn't bad enough; he had to get a pro-TPP, pro-NAFTA, anti-minimum wage, american job destroying d-bag to add to his pathetic staff.

I don't understand how anyone can support such a frickin' blatant lying POS like Trump. Seriously.

One way or another, Sessions is in trouble. He just crossed the line that prevented him from avoiding being an accomplice of Trump. However short of firing Mueller, Trump is unlikely to ultimately be satisfied with stopping at McCabe.

These Carrier workers voted for Trump & Pence as a savior and he turned out to be nothing but Judas. There is video of there feelings.

Renee Elliott: “That’s right, I did, I voted for Trump. I drove in the pouring rain to vote for Trump. I believed him when he came to Indianapolis and said ‘We’re not going to let Carrier leave.’”

Duane Oreskovic: “I thought, Mike Pence being from Indiana, he would have our back. Well, apparently that didn’t happen. I was wrong, we were all wrong.”

Frank Staples: “When they made the announcement that they were closing Carrier, people started realizing that Trump just lied his ass off about what he was actually doing. You know, it was PR, it was a photo op for him to say ‘hey, look what I did,’ and he really didn’t do ****. [...]

“You can go get a job at McDonald’s, but how are you going to feed a family of four?”

OMG Betsy Devos is such a failure it's disgusting. Yea, we have no money for more teachers, and books, and PAPER for the kids to write on. But we magically have $400M to give teachers guns.

Trump's America in a nutshell right here.

She put the CFPB in place so it wouldn't be accountable to Congress. Now she is pissed that it isn't accountable to congress. Pocahontas is such a knucklehead.

Well AG Sessions looks like he is in a heap of trouble!
He followed orders and fired McCabe but looks like he lied to congress and likely the FBI. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Three people who attended the March campaign meeting told Reuters they gave their version of events to FBI agents or congressional investigators probing Russian interference in the 2016 election. Although the accounts they provided to Reuters differed in certain respects, all three, who declined to be identified, said Sessions had expressed no objections to Papadopoulos’ idea.


“If you’re talking about false statements, prosecutors look for something that is concrete and clear,” he said.

Other legal experts said, however, that repeated misstatements by Sessions could enable prosecutors to build a perjury case against him.
