The Kurds didn't prevent 9/11. Neither did the Democrats for that matter.
Trump's Saudi friends have expressed disappointment to him often on this point.

I'm ready for my ban at this point.Your head-in-hands moment of the day:
This very much feels like the Nixon speedrun going even faster now that there's a threat to his Presidency.I'm 100% convinced that Putin is attempting to get everything he wants out of Trump now that the impeachment is in the ether and he's running down the list, or else the Kompromat gets released.
I'm 100% convinced that Putin is attempting to get everything he wants out of Trump now that the impeachment is in the ether and he's running down the list, or else the Kompromat gets released.
Yeah. This is how current things feel.I'm 100% convinced that Putin is attempting to get everything he wants out of Trump now that the impeachment is in the ether and he's running down the list, or else the Kompromat gets released.
It's because he's the first president we've ever had who's not a politician, but a cult of personality. Totally different rules.You could line a wall with pages from a calendar ranging from Trump's inauguration on up to today, put a blindfold on, throw a dart at the wall and it would probably land on a day where Trump did or said something that would completely fucking ruin any other politician.
Jesus H. Christ. Someone call him out on the litany of things he's called easy.
I really don't see why any nation would trust us after this.There is nothing stopping the US from electing another Trump. US foreign relations are super fucked.
Actually, yeah. We'll see that before Trump is out of office.So what other horrible things does Putin want that Trump could give him? Leaving NATO?
Coming from a guy who only drives a golf cart.Your head-in-hands moment of the day:
That's just a tad too egregious and would get him removed immediately. He'll probably do his best to weaken our relationship with NATO, though, including withdrawing all or nearly all of our NATO contributions.So what other horrible things does Putin want that Trump could give him? Leaving NATO?
Excuse me, we've all committed vehicular homicide?Your head-in-hands moment of the day:
Absolutely. That's a good way of putting it.It's because he's the first president we've ever had who's not a politician, but a cult of personality. Totally different rules.

Okay. Than...

They know. They just don't care.Yup, going to be rolling my eyes out of my sockets in the coming years when dumbass Republicans act shocked that Trump was a Putin agent. Fucking everyone knew during the 2016 election that was paying attention. I'm going to point that out and suggest to these people that they should stop voting because they treat politics like sports ball.

I think he's saying we've all accidentally driven on the wrong side of the road. I have only briefly done that once when I was young and took a turn too tightly but I immediately pulled over and turned around. Regardless, it's insane to say that it's ok to flee a foreign country after accidentally killing somebody.
Not great. He's extremely unpopular here, but I don't know if Beshear can win. I sure hope he does.

Tulsi is tied to Syria, they're not going to be happy about this.Dude
What if Putin told Tulsi to say what she said today just to bake in the division a bit more
That can't be plausible can it?
HR1 would solve so much. Hopefully Dems actually put it into law when they take power again. But then I remember how many times the GOP voted to repeal the ACA under Obama only to fail once they had a President who would actually sign it into law.The biggest thing I want from Democrats if they ever find themselves in power again isn't healthcare reform, isn't tax reform, it's fixing our god damned democracy.
If they don't focus entirely on some serious fucking electoral reform (gerrymandering/campaign financing/lobbying), demanding truth in media, the regulation of social media companies, cementing 'norms' with laws that have enforceable consequences, completely redefining the justice department's relationship with the executive, reforming the structure of the supreme court, etc., then there's no fucking point to anything they do because Republicans will be able to continue throwing sand in the eyes of the general public with their information warfare machine, get reelected using the limitless resources of foreign and domestic oligarchs, and destroy any progress that's done over and over and over again.
And the thing is, all of those things that I listed are actually extremely popular among democrats, independs, and republicans. The vast majority of americans want a better democracy.

You have to assume one or more aides stressed the importance of not trying to defend her, if asked about the incident. Yet he does does defend her, and in the most dumbass way possible. You know that's the first thing that entered his brain when he heard the news (meaning when saw it in a Fox News segment). And instead of thinking about it for two seconds, he goes and makes an international incident that much worse. Because of course he does.I think he's saying we've all accidentally driven on the wrong side of the road.

If a Democrat is elected President in 2020 but does not win a Senate majority, would they even be able to get cabinet members installed?

How does the next president respond to this catastrophe without breaking our alliance with Turkey?
Putin will get his wish. NATO will be weaker because of this.
Trump is tweeting bragging that only 25% of people support impeachment.
Turns out that he's referencing a Washington Post poll that had 25% of Republicans supporting impeachment. Whoops!
