Is Ted Cruz even still a politician? The video of him cold-calling for Donald Trump while covered in flop sweat should have been the last time anyone had to hear from him.

You radicals and your black & white naive framing, please.  ::) It's a “Resolution Reaffirming the DNC’s Unwavering Commitment to Workers and Unions in Industries that Power the American Economy, and Expressing the Democratic Party’s Appreciation of their Profound Contributions to Our Party, Our Nation’s Economy, and Our Way of Life.”

I find Ted Cruz's twitter comebacks to be pretty pretty pretty good, all things considered. He (or the staffer) actually responds to stuff like that and often with a playful/topical joke. You don't expect that kind of humanity from the Zodiac Killer really.

They won't ever turn anyone into a corn cob but they are often worth a sensible chuckle. If I had to follow an elected Republican on Twitter, he wouldn't be the worst choice. Because there'd also be the unintentional comedy.

IIRC, when he ran for DNC chair(? maybe it was after?) there were whispers about that in some of the lower Opportunity Democrat circles but nobody really followed up thinking it was just standard rumormongering. I remember an accusation that Pelosi's office was "suggesting" it to "journalists" possibly when Ellison was talking about running for Speaker/Minority Leader.

On a random note, he's a lot older than I assumed, 55. Thought he was like 40ish.

This might be enough to throw the primary. Not sure I believe it until I see the receipts though.

Apparently more than one local news outlets declined to run the story because they couldn’t confirm it.

Lol omarosa... at some point being a professional snake will stop netting income, and taking recording devices into a room I’m guessing spends 90% of its day at TS/SCI at a minimum is not going to garner much trust w future employers.  :doge

I can’t believe the GOP spin on Omarosa....

Like, I agree she’s scummy... but whose idea was it to hire her? We all know who came up with the idea, and t wasn’t John Kelly or Obama.

Edit: also I don’t think Omarosa had any clearance, so like, why is she even in a SCIF? Sure this reflects poorly on her, but everybody already knew she was a joke and a charlatan. Finding out that Omarosa was committed to fuckery is not news. What’s news is how much you he supposedly serious people enabled that fuckery and turned the other way.

Trump didn't know she was fired

"They're running a big operation"

"GODDAMN IT"



 :neogaf

Omarosa asks the question if Trump or General Kelly is running the country.
And who is 'They' that are running a big operation.

"Are you worried because you taped in the Situation Room?"
"No I have protections"
"The things General Kelly is doing in this white house should concern all Americans"

This is sounding more and more like a hit job on General Kelly.

Trump, the MASTER politician, is clearly ridding himself of deep state control. What better way to eliminate Kelly than siccing Omarosa on him? Kelly can't defend himself without sounding racist. It's perfect.

Republicans and the president are out slamming Omarosa yet are barely being asked the most basic response: why was she hired in the first place? What were her qualifications? Trump himself says he hired her because she supported him...yea.

Gotta wonder what other security breaches are happening.

Her flaw though is that nobody likes her and trusts her, she's based her entire career about being a snake. She'll also fight to the death to everyone's detriment over credit for anything good. Even without her reputation she can't help but immediately fall into this.

When Trump brought her back on The Apprentice yet again, she said she was turning over a new leaf due to killing Michael Clarke Duncan's death and was only there to win one for him. Within fifteen minutes she already started an argument with half the entire women's team over something meaningless and by the time the task had started she was already trying to "secretly" undermine people while insulting them to their face.

I have to assume this behavior and personality along with her lack of qualifications for anything is why they kept moving her to increasingly obscure White House positions after originally being an all-purpose "Assistant to the President" and that she continued to worm her way into and create problems in areas she shouldn't have been near which is why Kelly finally had to tell Trump to deal with it and man up to dump her rather than letting her hang around fucking with everything.

I'm no expert but it potentially seems like one problem with hiring people simply because "they look good" on TV/Fox and Friends/etc. Although The Mooch is likely the exception that proves the rule.

The goalpost here is Rudy on Fox and Friends saying the President is an honest man and he did nothing wrong.

*Host stares nervously at Rudy*
Host: "So this thing with the Russians..."

Rudy: "WELL first you'd need a subpoena but he's the president so you can't do that and you can't indict him and you can't arrest him so it's all up to congress. And even if there was collusion, there's nothing illegal"

Host: "Nothing illegal?"

Rudy: "NAH, just you know two blokes talking like we're talking. Like we could talk with some Russians as private citizens, nothing would happen. Totally fine hehehehe"

Host: "So what about Clinton"

Rudy: "MY GOD the crimes I can't believe the crimes. I'd tell you THAT we need to investigate."

I find funny how even the WSJ says,"The realignment is part of Democrats’ broader shift to the left on a range of issues" when socialists generally support gun rights for their fabled revolution. Antifa, which is far left, is severely pro-gun for instance. How did anti-gun come to be a "left" position exactly? I can't think of any leftist that supports it. A leftist would want guns to be free for the revolution but would support banning them after the revolution is won to make sure their power has no threat.  :idont
