What happens when you put former Governor Sarah Palin’s intellect with Donald Trump’s IQ? That sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but this time it is not. No, the president of these United States decided to Twitter-support the former vice presidential candidate in her opinion and attack former Senator John McCain. Ironically, he tried to dismiss Twitter. It was ugly.



True to his basest instincts, POTUS could not resist an opportunity to attack the deceased senator. Of course, the president managed to turn Palin’s words back into a light beam shining in his own eyes. The president said that as the 2020 Republican opponent to Biden, the wanna-be king was a gift from President Barack Obama and former VP:

‘It’s never a real Twitter Trending. It’s Twitter Executive’s Choice. Only negative on Republican voices, especially mine!’

Trump said that McCain “was a lousy candidate:”

‘Sarah is correct. McCain was a lousy candidate with lots of bad policy, but the “deadhead” sabotaged his campaign from the inside and never gave him a chance to win. Hope they were happy with OBiden (sic), who gave you me!’

John McCain — war hero, political giant — dies at 81

John McCain, the onetime Navy pilot and longtime lawmaker, was among the best known veterans in America, and has arguably been the most influential and consistent military advocate for the Republican Party over the last three decades.

Chris - He isn't a coastal elite or holds those views.

Trump - billionaire, was a life long Democrat, was big friends with the Clintons, lives in a coastal city in a building with his name on it.

 

[The_Right_Honourable_Brit]

He's from Queens...

View attachment 896888


What's that big blue thing to the right of Queens?

When I talk about coastal elites, I'm not really referring o the geographical area (although there is usually an overlap). Read back to what I mean by "coastal elites".

Also you lot continue to make the mistake that wealthy people can't be in touch with the working class (there are many wealthy working-class Americans just FYI. Also if you knew *anything* about NY, Queens is a very working class borough compared to the ultra-wealthy Manhatten). Just as you made the mistake that because Farage was a metal trader in the UK and went to a private school, he can't possibly "represent" or give voice to the working class in the UK, the same is true of Trump.

Sorry for the noise myBBers, trying to get Buka on track.

Go back I said ... to here:

I really don't get the Dems' obsession with bringing out all manner of celebs...firstly, a large percentage of people don't give a hoot what a celeb thinks about politics + it just reinforces the "coastal (liberal) elites" problem that the Dems continue to struggle with.

Savvy? Or should I start posting maps? Dems won those coastal areas, lost in the heartland ...

"in touch with the working class"

 

[The_Right_Honourable_Brit]

"in touch with the working class"

His views on immigration and trade? Very much what the majority of working class are thinking in the US. I mean Sanders' trade views are not a world away from Trump's views on trade...

However, the working class also love stuff like Mediaid, Social Security etc. that Republicans want to cut but Trump has been vocal in keeping those benefits and certainly has less interest in cutting such entitlements than more orthodox Republicans.

Normally conservative people are able to distinuish between marketing and reality. That's why hell is said to be over crowed

Yes and hypocriticaly Trump is part of the "Coastal Elites" that the GOP, himself and his voter base love to criticise.

The press cant keep up with the Orange Dotard.

All the Trump associates convicted or sentenced in the Mueller investigation

All the Trump associates convicted or sentenced in the Mueller investigation

Longtime Trump associate Roger Stone is the latest to be sentenced.

www.axios.com

Longtime Trump associate Roger Stone was sentenced to 4o months in prison for crimes that include obstruction of justice, lying to Congress and witness tampering.

Why it matters: Stone is the seventh person to be convicted and sentenced for crimes unearthed by former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. His case has been at the heart of ongoing tensions between President Trump and his Justice Department.

The big picture: Suspected criminal activity among Trump associates extends beyond Mueller’s Russia probe. Federal prosecutors are investigating the president's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani's personal business dealings in Ukraine.

Steve Bannon Arrested on Charges of Stealing From ‘Build the Wall’ Fundraiser

The former White House chief strategist allegedly received more than $1 million that was raised to build Trump’s border wall through a non-profit organization under his control.

[AlmightyBender]

Yes, but he isn't a coastal elite or at least doesn't hold political views of that class.

Ok pull the other finger now Chris. He is from New York. He is a billionaire. Born to extreme wealth.

He donated to coastal democratic candidates throughout his life.

Tell me again about TDS....

He's exploited immigrants on Trump projects for decades. Hell, he was still employing undocumented immigrants at Mar a Lago not so long ago... as long as it's good for Donnie.

His wife came to the US on an Einstein visa, and her family became citizens through family-based immigration... as long as it's good for Donnie.

Trade? He's in it for what's good for folk named Trump.

He doesn't care about Americans. He never has... He's looking out for No 1.

That's it.

That's all it will ever be.

If you truly believe he cares about trade or immigration in any way other than how it benefits him or his family directly, I'd like to introduce you to a Nigerian prince whose having some money troubles right now...

 

[TysonRoux]

The Orange Dotard says he he doesn't know Steve Bannon.

Trump says he disagreed with privately funded border wall. The builder got $1.7 billion in wall contracts from his administration.

President Donald Trump now claims this privately funded border wall in the Rio Grande Valley — touted as the "Lamborghini" of fences — was built to "make me look bad," even though the project's builder and funders are all Trump supporters.

Press conferance underway - as expected, he knows nothing about it.

Blames apartheid Obama.

On again about its a witch hunt, supreme court should never have allowed it, fishing expedition,.........,

On Bannon, ......."its a sad event"

 

[AlmightyBender]

in touch with the working class

Ma se kind..... Trump thinks you need photo ID to buy groceries. Just pull all the fingers now.

His views on trade? Like all his tariffs that screwed over farmers, so he had to resort to Socialism to help them out? Or how he destroyed the Lobster industry in Maine because his tariffs made it cheaper to get lobster from Canada.

Immigration? Lol his policies have been driven by Bannon and Stephen Miller. Trump virtue signals these views to keep his base happy. He is more than happy to employ immigrants at Mar A Lago.
