I would not call the Dems "morons." Previous GOP POTUS would cave to such a thing, so why not think Trump would? The hidden beauty of a press that gives you 90% negative coverage is that you don't have to worry what they think. The President is a fink. |

So Lindsay Graham is lying too? Also, people claiming that they didn't hear it isn't the same thing as denying that he said it. Assuming that itself isn't a lie, perhaps they were engaged in an engrossing sidebar conversation and weren't listening to Trump. And remember, this came from reporters from the Washington Post and was confirmed by Durbin, it wasn't provided by Durbin to reporters unsolicited. He confirmed that the report was accurate, he did not make the report himself. That was followed by silence from the whitehouse. Silence from other republicans. Not a denial, just silence... until trump tweeted. now all of a sudden a couple of republicans "can't recall" hearing him say it, which then shifted into "he definitely didn't say it" "You've seen the comments in the press," Durbin said at an event in Chicago. "I've not read one of them that's inaccurate. To no surprise, the President started tweeting this morning, denying that he used those words. It is not true." For you, it seems, who you believe on an issue corresponds directly to their political positions. Any accusals, claims, denials, whatever - first has to go through the "what do they stand for politically?" filter. Using that filter, Lindsay Graham's statement of how the reports are "basically accurate" must be the truth. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts."

Somebody is lying, which makes all testimony suspect, no? Without proof as to who isn't lying, it all gets thrown out of court as unusable hearsay. Or don't you understand that.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

S&P 500, Dow and NASDAQ all closed down from yesterday. I demand to know who's fault it is. The mind hungers for that on which it feeds. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | White House Doctor: Donald Trump’s Excellent Health ‘Just How God Made Him’ White House Dr. Ronny Jackson praised Donald Trump and spoke in detail about the president’s physical and mental health on Tuesday, calling it “excellent.” Reporters in the White House press briefing appeared baffled that, despite reports of Trump’s intake of fast food, Dr. Jackson said his overall health was great for a 71-year-old man. “It is called genetics,” Jackson said. “I don’t know. Some people have great genes … he has incredible genes and that’s the way God made him.” Jackson has served as the presidential physician for the two previous presidents — Barack Obama and George W. Bush. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Clearly the evolution of the GOP senators from going to silence to "do not recall" to "didn't say that" is a regression of lies. Doesn't matter what the president said. What he's made clear is that he wants to replace the ability to immigrate from a compassionate based to a merit based system. Whether you believe in merit based (based on abilities to contribute, speak english, have white skin, proclaim love for a Christian God or have no God at all, and have money, I imagine) versus compassionate based (war, refugees, extreme poverty) is the true debate. |

I didn't even talk about wildlife migration. I understand pronghorn and ocelots are of particular concern in Texas. I don't think either side really comprehends the negative impact. The ineffectiveness of the wall is well understood by some, but that just means they view it as a waste of money. The Democrats don't mind wasting money, they'll give Trump his wall to get something they want. The mind hungers for that on which it feeds. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | Bad bad day for the Loony Left: White House doctor: Trump “Has Absolutely No Cognitive or Mental Issues” Jackson reported that Trump got a perfect 30 out of 30 score on a common dementia screening exam called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. "I can reliably say, and I think that the folks in the mental health [field] would back me up on the fact that if he had some kind of mental, cognitive issue, that this test is sensitive enough, it would have picked up on it. He would not have got 30 out of 30 ... ” Jackson said. “And my personal experience is that he has absolutely no cognitive or mental issues whatsoever.” So much for Pence declaring Trump a mental case and invoking the amendment. The average passing grade is 26 out of 30 right, and Trump got 30 out of 30. Kinda shines a light as to who the truly deranged are, like there was any doubt. The Left has been insane since the election, not Trump. And this was Obama's doctor, not a paid off Trump quack. Just wait, they'll be screaming the test was wrong and he needs to do a battery of tests. Mark my words. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Says the guy who kept wrongly predicting Hillary's demise from illness. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Mental demise, which obviously came to pass. She still thinks she can be president. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
