It looks more like Hollywood, than it does government. edit


Well, Golden Boy is "reality" TV Hollywood. The lack of quality shows.

But I expected Golden Boy to kick, scream, pull someone's hair, and hold his breath for weeks before folding and twittering how unfair the media is being again.


Ah, explanation. According to Bloomberg: "The Office of White House Counsel wasn’t informed of Rosenstein’s decision until after he signed the order, Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores said."

Anyone want to bet how many days it will be before Golden Boy unleashes his Twitter fury on Mr. Mueller?

Based on the BetFair market, Trump has a 54.64% chance of not completing his first term. That line sounds about right to me. If anything, a bit low.

Must be some sort of record in the first 120 days in office all concerning the Trump Administration.

1. House intelligence committee investigation.

2. The House judiciary committee investigation.

3.The Senate intelligence committee investigation.

4.The Senate judiciary committee investigation.

5.House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

6.The FBI investigation.

7. And now the special counsel's investigation

Q: You were pretty prescient in noting that the Comey memos would come back to bite Trump — saying “stay tuned.” How widely known are Comey’s note-keeping habits? Is it exceptional in some way?
MILLER: I don’t think it’s exceptional either for an FBI director or for anyone at the FBI or at the Justice Department. If they have a conversation with someone where the other person raises something inappropriate, it’s a pretty standard practice to then write a memo to the file, basically, putting that down. There were times when I was at Justice when I got phone calls from people that would make inappropriate requests of me, and I would usually tell them, “That’s an inappropriate request; I can’t do that.” And then I would send an email to my deputy after the conversation describing it, so if anyone ever asked about it, there was a record of exactly what happened and that I didn’t do anything wrong.
Q: And so you would generally not only write the memo, but you would talk to somebody about it in real time?
MILLER: I think people do it different ways. You can either just send a memo to the file and just kind of keep it to yourself, or the safer thing is to actually memorialize it, either in a conversation or a written record with someone else at the Justice Department.

I wonder what the prop best are like... :)

But finally Golden Boy wins! No other tenant of the Oval Office has so swiftly accrued so many investigations. And a special counsel is the very top of the type! It's YUGE!

I agree
I think the line is a bit low as well

Putting aside impeachment or resignation, I think people often ignore the fact that he is old and fat and loves unhealthy food.

During the campaign when Trump said "You'll get sick of all the winning," what he really meant was "You'll get sick of all the whining."
