A racist president who relied greatly on the power of the executive branch? Sounds familiar!

If this is true, I gotta wonder how Manafort and Stone react to this.
Which of the two do you guys think is more likely to cave first? My money's on Manafort personally.
When you get taken to the top of the world on the back of a madman, you don't get off until you can see stable footing.
Gluck.

I'm surprised they dont have Lincoln wearing a confederate flag snuggie or something, they really showed restraint.
Pence is the confusing one for me.
He's been quiet this entire time. Why come out now, after Republicans' monumental failure this week, and give this boot-licking Trump speech and slam Obamacare right after the American people, Republican and Democrat alike, just made it clear that they didn't want that garbage the GOP was pushing?
I thought Pence was trying to distance himself. Why come out now and tie himself to everything Trump has done since the inauguration?
The man's evil, but I didn't think he was an idiot...

Pence is not doing anything that he hasn't been doing since was chosen as Trump's running mate.

Hmm gives reason to why Woosley came out the last few days detailing his role.?

He's still the vice president, he's still on the boat. The important thing is that Trump has made it clear Pence is not in his inner circle (see: the Flynn fiasco), and Trump hasn't given him any type of assignment or "thing to do." He's seemingly the least consequential VP since Quayle. Yes it's early but I feel confident saying that. If Trump was smart he'd let Pence handle House negotiations and deal making. Make Pence the point man. The entire republican House body likes the guy, why not use that to your advantage. But nope...Trump would rather fuck everything up himself.
End of the day Trump having Pence doing little to nothing is good for him, assuming Trump is removed from office at some point.

The people angry at us? But we keep them stupid with Fox News so that never happens. It must be paid protesters. We must stop them

It was interesting seeing someone on Real Time last night warning the public about a false flag in the near future. Nothing specific, but just trying to tell everyone it might be a planned attack on ourselves. Amazing how twisted trump has us. Sad part is, when the next attack does happen, I might be skeptical myself.

Oh yeah, speaking of the Medicaid expansion discussion from yesterday, the Kansas State Senate voted for the bill that passed the House to expand Medicaid. I don't think they have enough votes for a veto override though.
There's no reason to believe anything that comes from Trump until Cruz's father is in jail.

Finally, two very connected issues.

I mean, it's a weird connection, but yes, I wish everyone wanted transparency on most things the government does.

I've said before, but I believe Reince getting removed/leaving is the 'canary in the coal mine' for the GOP turning on Trump.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
I thought his age was unknown since we don't know how many years he was in the puzzle box.

Of course they would say that.
Until I see some more evidence that Renice is getting removed I don't trust anything.
If he does get removed that means the only real connection between the president and the GOP is in jeopardy.

Yeah, that makes no sense to get rid of Reince over this. That wasn't part of his job. Bannon is either trying to consolidate his power or the GOP is officially distancing themselves from Trump if he goes.
Trumpettes don't understand that the RNC/DNC leaders don't have any real power over the actual sitting Congressmen, they're more just an EVP that oversees the machinery of the party.

I'd say most people don't understand what RNC/DNC leaders actually do.

Trumps playing golf AGAIN today. Republicans think he's going to do anything with tax reform? That's a laugh. That's way harder than Health care and their entire plan relied on the AHCA passing. Now they have three weeks to try to turn something around.
I saw that moderate Republicans were thinking of going across the aisle? Fuck that. Let them squirm. Any victory, Trump will just use it to bolster himself. I want them to continuously fail for their 8 years of bullshit obstruction.

If House Dems try to get Trump's taxes again soon, I really wanna see what the vote count will be If Trump fucks up with the tax cuts and the budget.
Wait, Kansas isn't so far gone red anymore that they actually tried to push through a Medicaid expansion?
Where is Kansas on the bankrupt scale these days anyway? Above or below Oklahoma?

This feels like the baseball bat scene in The Untouchables.
Kansas is pushing their legislators left out of necessity because their executive is an insane ideologue.
It's the bankruptiest.
When's that mansion up for grabs? I know Kansas is red, but that has to be at least a little in play at this point.
The furthest left they'll probably go is centrist Republican. It'd probably need to get way worse for a Dem to have a shot.
Common misconception. Reince is 45 thousand years old. He actually looks quite good for his age.
Edit:
God damnit Suikoguy.
Edit 2: If Reince age shocks you check out Stephen Miller's lol
