It might not be up to McTurtle if he doesn't have the votes.

Oh no, Trump might be caving slightly, he probably read my post. Fuck.

Is it ok to throw up at work? Does bile clean out of keyboards easily?

The odds of your coworkers and / or subordinates reading posts in Demi's Home for Wayward Posters with No Vocabulary, let alone on a regular basis, is pretty low. Don't fret!

"I thought her testimony was very compelling and she looks like a very fine woman to me. A very fine woman," he said. "And I thought that Brett’s testimony likewise was, really something that I hadn’t seen before. Incredible. It was an incredible moment in the history of our country."

Man, this has to be a wake up call that Trump needs to find a synonym for "really good" that isn't, 'incredible'. Pronto.

Look, while refund anticipation loans are technically payday loans it doesn't make me a payday lender if I offer them.

Conservatives act like the original sins in the modern history of the court are the confirmation hearings for Thomas and Bork, but as far as I can tell neither faced unfair scrutiny at all. It gets me angry.

Trump played this one pretty smart.
Before the hearing he said that the witness might change his mind
During the hearing he had something like: "I love this, great television" leaked to the press. He even delayed meeting Rosenstein.

After ignoring a dozen or so letters from Democrats he now ordered an FBI investigation. Which leaves three outcomes:
A. The FBI doesn't find anything new or conclusive
B. The FBI comes up with something that torpedoes Kavanaugh
C. The FBI finds some evidence that completely clears Kavanaugh

In scenario A or C, Trump gets to say 'Fake news', 'Democratic Witch Hunt', 'Phoney accusations just like they're doing against me" and Kavanaugh is confirmed.
Leaving Democrats battered and defeated after such a long fought battle. Not to mention under scrutiny for their behavior should C occur.

If B is the reality Trump gets to say that he believed the witness, called for the investigation and saved the day or did exactly what the senate and public wanted.
While at the same time riling up the base because a SCOTUS seat is on the line.

with such a short time to investigate and the fact that his happened ages ago I expect A is the more likely outcome.

That narrative only lasted for a few weeks. The liberal reetards on reddit gave 120k fucking upvotes to that gif of the war criminals having fun together and now they're back at being angry at the neocon piece of shit.

How has it come to this? Liberals weren't geniuses before but they did have some basic common sense, now they're pretty much at the same intelligence level as the average braindead redneck while maintaining the same holier than thou attitude they had before.

Me: "Using images of gay romance to criticize Trump's corruption is an appeal to homophobia and you should try to avoid it."

Trump: "Kim Jong Un and I fell in love."

So can someone like Benji who knows the inner workings of the FBI explain this? NBC reported that Trump limited which witnesses they will interview and Trump claims that report is incorrect. Per the DOJ policy they do not make public commentary on ongoing investigations. So the public won't know what's going on until they complete the background checl? Or can a senator find out and make a stink about it if Trump is lying?

Maybe it's far more simple.

Donald Trump and the Republicans are the McDonalds of politics.
It's shit but you know what you get: Guns, tax cuts, flags, muh religion and a big military.

Donald Trump is obese and so is most of America.

The Democrats would be far more successful if they kept the social issues shelved until after the elections when they're actually in power.
Sure veggie smoothies are more healthy but burgers sell better.

If we can't get Nintex banned, can we at least get a 140 character limit on his posts
Trump went from: "Bomb North Korea" (Big Mac) to "I luv Kim" (McSalad).

His followers gobble it up in as long as it is McDonalds.

There's no political movement easier than heading to an arena, saying the news is fake, getting worked up about the Libruls and cheering whatever dumb shit Trump says.
There is no real ideology, you don't have to support or think about any policies, only 'things' like 'flag' and 'wall'. They just head to McDonalds to stuff shit in their faces.

Obama tried to teach people some hard lessons. "Your unhealthy job is not coming back and you should probably find something else to do" but Trump says: "Do you want to work on computer widgets or do you want to keep mining coal?"
In other words: "Do you want to learn how to eat healthy or just eat Big Macs until you die of heart failure?"

I’ve been reading about the nafta changes and continue to be impressed by Trumps ability to pretend minor tweaks are major victories.

I don’t really hate the changes but they don’t seem particularly major and don’t seem that they will change the trajectory of trade balances in any meaningful way

It's a funny video, but at the same time...

It's obvious the Left-wing media are having a field day over this. Ultimately though, you have a bunch of unsubstantiated accusations, no evidence, a story that focuses on supposed misconduct back when he was a teenager, years ago, and somehow this should be enough to destroy the man? No matter what people feel about Kavanaugh, these sort of show trials aren't good for society.
