smjjames Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Word is that Trump is preparing for an interview with Mueller and there are talks underway: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/1/8/16862632/trump-russia-collusion-probe-investigation-mueller Nothing has been set up yet however. Direct link to NBC newsL https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/initial-talks-underway-about-trump-interview-mueller-russia-probe-n835506 Regardless of what people think of Trump, it's still going to be a big deal and if he lies, he'll be in trouble.

redneckdevil Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Do we really want Pence as President though? Trump still a wild card in who his actions will benefit but we know exactly what we are getting with Pence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guard Dog Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I forget who said it, but it was a celebrity. They thought impeaching Trump would make Hillary President. I'll bet the were pissed when someone set them straight.... if anyone has. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smjjames Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Do we really want Pence as President though? Trump still a wild card in who his actions will benefit but we know exactly what we are getting with Pence. And sycophants don't make good leaders. Though it could be all an act since he knows his job security relies on appearing to be as loyal to Trump as possible. I read that free copy of that Fire and Fury book and while Pence wasn't covered much, when he was mentioned, he came off as maybe even more of a moron than Trump and allegedly the opinion of the staff was that he wasn't smart and that he was weak. Wait, is it recorded? What is? The Mueller interview? I'm sure they'd record it for their own internal use, but it won't be public.

I figured he was referring to Pence's odd religious beliefs, even by American standards, and the fact that he is actually a politician and may be more effective than Trump who seems to only have one tactic that he applies to everything. 1 Free games updated 3/4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smjjames Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Pence is definetly savvy, I'll give him that. In 2018 midterm news, pardoned ex-sherriff Joe Arpaio announced a Senate bid for Arizona. Not surprised that he wants to stay in power one way or another. http://www.cnn.com/2018/01/09/politics/arizona-senate-joe-arpaio/index.html Another Republican, Rep. Martha McSally is planning on announcing later in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he somehow gets the nomination, I'd see that seat as being pretty easy to get for the Democrats. Arizona, like many other western states has been importing a disproportionate number of blue voters. It has almost become a blue state, so a democrat very well may win the Senate seat regardless of who runs on the red team this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Republicans can't attract latinos, then that's their problem, not Democrats usurping the Republicans. It would be more accurate to say it's turning purple or swing state, but it's definetly true that western states have been trending purple/blue. Even Texas has been following that trend, though it has a longer way to go before it becomes a swing state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump still a wild card in who his actions will benefit but we know exactly what we are getting with Pence. negative: a pence presidency would make daily wh news conferences boring 'cause executive activities would be predictable. positive: nuclear holocaust during a pence presidency seems far less likely. tough choices.
