Trump's national security adviser Flynn resigns

[achilles28]

Trump fans think he has everything figured out ahead of time. Those more critical, and arguably more objective, see that he's just winging it. That conclusion is already supported by the various missteps so early in the administration. He's just fumbling along and hoping it all works out. I readily admit to really disliking the guy. So you may think I'm too negatively biased. But I would give credit where it is due. None is due.

Pure shit.

Fanboy.

Trump often flip flops.

But that's what voters hired him for - his uncompromising philosophy.

Fanboy.

Fangirl.

Fangirl.

I stand corrected. I accept your self-identification.

Meanwhile, have faith that billionaire Trump and his billionaire buddies will do what's best for the middle class, unlike those other...elitists.

It was a year of outliers, Fred. Perhaps 2017 will be another.

Evidence?

Evidence that Bush was far more gracious in the transition to Obama than Obama was to Trump? Really? You honestly don't agree that this was the case?

Even Trump's own Secretary of Defense, James Mattis, concluded that there is very little doubt that Russia interfered in the election, as well as other democratic elections elsewhere. How is it that these guys in the loop, and now even Trump himself, all concede that Russia hacked and interfered but guys on the Internet know better? Come on.

You mean like all the guys "in the loop" concluded that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

If there was proof, the Obama administration would have put it out for all to see. But there is none. So we have to blame it on the boogeyman.

Honestly. Show me.

That old chestnut? So will that be your go-to answer for evermore? In any event, that matter has been settled:

As for putting it out for all to see, it makes sense that, with the Trump team coming on board with the assessment that Russia interfered, the reason the rest of us don't see it is because of the risk associated with methods and sources. You may not like that as an answer, but come on: the Republicans believe it, the Democrats believe it, and now the Trump team believes it. Is there something you're not telling them?
