Title: Could Donald Trump...
Post by: PaulAds on January 25, 2018, 02:01:44 PM
...turn out to be one of the greatest Presidents America has ever had?

Is bombshell news about to drop?

Could household names really go to prison?

Have I gone mad?

Sorry for the possibly crazy thread. I just wanted to put this thought out there.

As you were... :)

Interesting point re 'household names'. I'd submit that those responsible for most corruption, misery, poverty, war, death and destruction aren't actually 'household names'. The puppet master is relatively faceless and to a large degree an obscure figure even if the crooked Hillary type characters are household names....

In December I quit reading the news.
Quit watching the news.
And quit eating corn flakes.
I'm so behind on books Obama just got elected.

Spill the beans Paul! I'm in Martin's camp - I've stopped paying attention to the news in an attempt to retrieve my humanity and sanity. Turns out I'm allergic to fearmongering.

Well if the cat is simultaneously dead and not dead...

Mind you there are plenty of male celebrities in an unresolved state of known-scumbag / not known-scumbag so I'm sure plenty of developments to come for those that follow these things...

ANYTHING is possible Paul. 

Perhaps a more useful question would be "what are the odds that....?"

“Release the memo” is happening. Within 5 days...but sooner, rather than later, I’d imagine.

I think I know what’s in there and it’s explosive.

Trumps “State of the Union” speech is tomorrow...Lord knows what is going to happen there.

This might be just the start of the democrats nightmare scenario.

I expect to see genuinely shocking developments...going all the way to the top of the previous administration.

 :o

I don’t mind suffering a little mockery. We make our own judgements as best we can, in a minefield of often conflicting narratives.

I think some folks ought to fasten their seatbelts. Honestly.

Trump is a sociopath and a scammer.
He'll be going down in flames within a year if he doesn't blow this planet up first.
Nunes memo is a joke written by sycophants - don't fall for it my friend.

Quite an assertion. I appreciate your kind words towards me. I believe Nunes’ report to be thouroughly researched and documented, sober and damning and just the first of several more to come. IG’s report is next, I think, and said to show even more evidence of wrongdoing.

Ironically, it’s the insanity of the Democrats creating a tidal wave of anti-Russian hysteria in order to delegitimise and remove Trump that’s driving us towards destruction.

I’m more convinced the more I look at it...and I’ve looked at it an awful lot.

This perhaps sums it up for me

This hasn’t gone away...but things are taking a lot longer than I’d expected  ::)

I don’t consider myself a conservative by any means...but this is a good prep for what ought to be coming...

Too funny. Jenna's view -> It's all media hysteria until a year later when the truth very quietly emerges with plenty of redactions and tiny print corrections allowing them to avoid libel charges.

Love him or hate him the guy is at least doing something for the American people who voted him in. Imagine if he brings peace to north and south Korea?
How will CNN spin that in a bad light i wonder? Oh i am pretty sure they will.

I thought that NK accidentally destroyed their mountain testing site, forcing them to shut down the program because it was leaking radioactive waste, endangering China and both Korea's. Their testing mountain collapsed upon itself. They have nowhere to test any longer.

Where did you read that, Jenna? I guess that would make sense, but I feel like it would also be all over the news. You can't hide a nuclear accident, could you?

It was fairly prevalent in the news sources outside of the mainstream channels. Let me dig up a couple of reputable examples:

http://fortune.com/2018/04/25/north-korea-nuclear-test-mountain-mount-mantap/ (http://fortune.com/2018/04/25/north-korea-nuclear-test-mountain-mount-mantap/)

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/05/north-koreas-nuclear-test-site-at-risk-of-imploding-chinese-scientist-says.html (https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/05/north-koreas-nuclear-test-site-at-risk-of-imploding-chinese-scientist-says.html)

What's most interesting to me is that I'm struggling to find this on mainstream sites, but it's all over the conservative news sites, which have more of an interest in keeping it under wraps, given how they're intent on crediting Trump for the end of NK nuclear testing by pushing for a Nobel Peace prize. Conservative news in the US is well known for publishing alternative facts and can't be trusted. Then again, all mainstream sources in the US are heavily influenced by whichever administration is in power and that could explain the relative lack of coverage. I did find it was published in the Washington Post, but they pulled it for some reason after-the-fact. The internet artifact of its initial coverage is still available.

I mentioned the IG’s report in a previous post...



I thought this was quite incredible to watch...although I’m familiar with most of what was “disclosed”
