this is kind of the craziest thing to me; i hate to admit this, but for a guy who represented Trump, a man who has surrounded himself with detestable, charisma-vacuum dipshits, for over a decade, Cohen came across as strangely likeable? not likeable in the literal sense, but likable in the 'Paulie is likable when you compare him against Richie Aprile" sense
Not mention it would be a lot more than military involved domestically. All law enforcement agencies would be.
You should watch Cumming's closing remarks. It's straight up liberal 'return to normalcy' vomit. I mean sure, if they want to take that line right now then whatever. I just think anyone who honestly believes that stuff isn't the sharpest tool in the box. It's not inspirational or moving.
Like, I'm not disagreeing with any of that, except for the normalcy part. Trump is, at the very least, pretty open. For all that he lies, everyone knows he's doing it. Even most Trump supporters would admit that he lies - I know several who think that. All politicians lie though, is what they'd say.
You guys need to sort your shit out and get her installed as president like, now. I saw that whole stream, and she was easily the most prepared with the most pertinent questions, with zero bullshit.
She'll definitely be President one day but:
She's good at her job. However she hasn't shown us yet that she is ready to be a President, nor is she ready. When the time comes, but we need to slow down atm.
She's great, and shes young and hungry. But she's nowhere near ready to be president.
She literally cant be yet. Too young. Theres an age requirement.
I didn't say all previous US presidents never lied or didn't make decisions which were morally questionable. But you kind of are already proving my point. "All politicians lie" you say, but "at least (Trump) pretty open". Do you not see any difference between the magnitude and frequency of Trump's lies and those of other politicians? What does it mean to openly lie? To acknowledge that you lied and keep going? I can't ever recall Trump acknowledging that he's lied. Or is it just to lie with great frequency even in the face of great evidence to the contrary? Is that how things have always been in the US? Most certainly the US in the past has looked the other way to many (many) wrongdoings committed by them but has it ever been so blatant? Have US presidents in the recent past so easily reaped financial benefits from their time as President while still in office? Have US presidents allowed members of their family to dominate and lead policy agendas in a clear sign of nepotism? Have US presidents made implicit public threats to witnesses? I'm not even going to bring up his actual actions and policies because of course he would push for the positions of his party but even then is he actually sticking to the Republican agenda (one would think the Republican party would be pro free trade)? All of these set bad precedents for others to follow down the line. There may very well have been worse Presidents than him in the past (including Bush) but that doesn't mean that one cannot demand for higher standards than what Trump is displaying right now.
Right, he was saying after the next term, which she would be old enough to be. But right now she doesn't show anything worthy to be running for a president nomination yet
How about we see her make some decisions and take some tough positions before we conclude someone is worthy of the presidency?
Yep, that very much felt like a coordinated set of questions between them all starting from establishing that Trump has been involved "garden variety" financial fraud to the need to release tax return + perform audits to confirm these crimes + getting to the history and associates involved in the crimes.
I mean, anyone can be president really. Trump has shown that. Having them have some actual good ideas and be pure 🔥 is just a bonus.
I dunno about that. I'd say shes at least shown to never underestimate her and she can hit WAY above her pay grade. The fact that she isnt corrupt yet and still full of fire might be a benefit. And honestly, you never know what one is capable of until you let them try. Shes proving us all wrong about what she can do everyday.
Just because she does something correctly doesn't mean she should become President.
This is the guy rumored to threaten Stormy Daniels in the parking lot when she was going to go public I think back in 2011When Cohen lists a couple of names and one of them is "Matthew Calamari" it all really just sounds like straight out of a movie/show.
Matthew Calamari.
Just....just damn.
Edit:
Holy shit he even looks the part

Era's non-existent threshold for qualification for the presidency is what got us Trump.
I don't think any of that matters. In fact, in many respects it's actually quite helpful - it lays bare the true nature of US power and how the ruling class in the USA really behaves. After Trump, anyone who tries to argue that the office of the president or the constitution are somehow imbued with any kind of inherent integrity or virtue should be laughed at for being naïve. It's such a simplistic view of politics and power held by people who watched The West Wing and somehow thought it was real.
