President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Just another day at the Oval Office.

 

The entire Arctic is melting.

 

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. federal appeals court on Friday revived a lawsuit alleging President Donald Trump violated the U.S. Constitution by profiting from foreign and domestic officials who patronized his hotels and restaurants, moving a watchdog group closer to obtaining financial records from his real estate company.

In a 2-1 ruling, a three-judge panel of the New York-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals set aside a lower court ruling that had thrown out the case because the people who sued could not prove they were harmed by Trump’s actions and his role as president.

Friday’s ruling dealt with preliminary questions relating to whether the case should be heard, without directly addressing whether Trump violated the law.

The lawsuit, initially filed by plaintiffs including the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, accused the Republican president of failing to disentangle himself from his hotels and other businesses, making him vulnerable to inducements by officials seeking to curry favor.​

Good.

FATUS can rot in solitary, playing handball with his own shit.

 

I kind of had a back and forth with a friend in his 60s last night. He's intelligent. For every unethical, imbecilic, downright criminal thing I pointed out about Trump, his only reply was that the stock market and his personal portfolio are up. He didn't even argue that Trump is doing everything I illustrated. I guess he can't see past the end of his bank statement.

 

Simple question from a simpleton.

 

Sounds familiar ...

 

you didn't sit in his recliner did you?

 

I am a very stable genius he said. But there was no one there. So no one believed him, not even the chair.

 

He’s gonna unleash Homelander on ’em.

 

If you took away the ability to make metal, I agree.

Pretty sure you need metal to make a lot of shit.

And teach people to replant trees. They were fucking that up without metal.
