All Things Trump: Is it over yet?

[Tero]

Why is Tero so obsessed with race? It's always blacks and penises with him.

I guess, to each his own, though.

You don’t get it. It’s all about Trump. Obama does not care about being alpha male or the size of his dick. But Trump cares about all that. Politics is not about policy, it’s about showing off. For Trump.

Who gassed more people at the southern border, Obama or Trump?

Who killed more civilians with drone strikes, Obama or Trump?

Which of the two had more stylish hair?

Which of the two were further from 'white' (one is a number of steps toward 'black-skinned', the other a number of steps toward 'orange-skinned')?

Which of the two has a more attractive penis to you?

[Tero]

I’m not attracted to penises of any color. But speaking of color, Trump mortuary make up is truly repulsive. Maybe he should try shoe polish like the Democratic governor?

Forget penises, I just thought after the way you kept mentioning Trumps, there must be some connection. My apologies.

How about the drone strike high-score? Did Obama get that one? Or is Trump winning?

[Tero]

Obama, black man holding most powerful office, did what the generals told. Most of what he had to deal with was leftovers from Bush Iraq war. Except killing Gaddafi. No big loss, but you can't fix those muslim countries. You can only contain them.

Did what which generals told?

I mean, he fired a bunch of them, didn't he?

Nevermind. I'm just laughing at your stupidity. I don't expect any depth of response. You still haven't told us about Obamas drone stike score, and whether he is winning against Trump.

What an unusual thing to say...which are 'those muslim countries'?

Trump thinks that yammering about the wall he said Mexico would pay for will keep his base happy. Meanwhile many of them are discovering that the tax bill he and his Republicans pushed through has resulted in them paying more in taxes, while big corporations and fat cats like Trump and his plutocratic cabinet are happily enjoying substantial decreases in their own taxes. His trade policies ('trade wars are good and easy to win!') are increasingly making life more difficult for farmers and ranchers, with bankruptcies in that sector on the rise. Trump's vanity wall isn't going to help either of those issues. If he manages to shut down the government again, farmers in particular are going to suffer.

'Farmers nearing crisis push back on Trump trade policies'

President Donald Trump’s trade war is magnifying some of the toughest farm conditions since the crisis that bankrupted thousands of farmers in the 1980s — and threatening a constituency crucial to his reelection hopes.

The president’s trade policies have sent U.S. agricultural exports plunging, exacerbating already difficult economic conditions facing farmers. Average farm income has fallen to near 15-year lows under Trump, and in some areas of the country, farm bankruptcies are soaring.

...

The Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis warned in November of rising Chapter 12 bankruptcies, used by family farmers to restructure debt. The Fed said that the strain of low commodity prices “is starting to show up not just in bottom-line profitability, but in simple viability.” The increase was driven by woes in Wisconsin’s dairy sector, which shrunk by about 1,200 operations, or 13 percent, from 2016 to October 2018.

“The farm economy’s in pretty tough shape,” said John Newton, chief economist at the American Farm Bureau Federation. “When you look out on the horizon of things to come, you start to see some cracks.”

...

The recent five-week shutdown froze government programs to assist producers with financing, planting decisions and much more. If another shutdown comes after Feb. 15, it will seriously interfere with the spring planting season, further complicating the picture for farmers.

Trump

In other news, water is often wet, and L'Emmerdeur is finding more evidence to support his opinion of Trump.

[pErvinalia]

Well that's more evidence than you use to support your opinions (which is zero). I've never met anyone so averse to evidence and reasoning.

I've been asking Tero, but he seems to also dislike evidence...I asked him if Obama or Trump had a higher 'kill-score' with drones.

[L'Emmerdeur]

From a former federal prosecutor, an examination of why the scam company alumnus acting US Attorney General is weaseling about his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee:

Acting Attorney General Whitaker agreed to voluntarily testify before the House Judiciary Committee tomorrow. In preparation, Chairman Jerry Nadler provided Whitaker with questions in advance and asked Whitaker to identify if he would invoke executive privilege.

Nadler did so because during the past two years when the GOP controlled Congress, Trump Administration officials would routinely refuse to answer questions without invoking executive privilege. They did so knowing that Congressional Republicans wouldn't compel their testimony.

Generally speaking, "Executive privilege" is a narrow doctrine that protects internal deliberations between the President and top Executive Branch officials, so that they can give blunt and forthright advice without concern that it will be publicly revealed later.

It is not proper for witnesses to refuse to answer on the basis of executive privilege unless the president has formally asserted executive privilege. So Nadler presented the questions in advance to give Trump time to invoke executive privilege before the testimony.

This way, Whitaker couldn't say that he was surprised by a question and needed to give Trump time to decide whether to invoke executive privilege. Similarly, Nadler prepared to subpoena Whitaker in case Whitaker refused to answer any of the questions.

A voluntary witness (as Whitaker was) can refuse to answer questions, but a witness appearing pursuant to a subpoena is required to testify. If Whitaker was subpoenaed and refused to answer questions at that point, Congress could refer him to the DOJ for Contempt of Congress.

...

While DOJ claims that Whitaker made no promises to Trump about undermining the Mueller investigation, there were published reports that Trump asked Whitaker to control the prosecutors in the Southern District of New York.

That may be DOJ's main concern. House Democrats and the public deserve to know if Trump is corruptly trying to quash or undermine the investigation of him, his company, and his friends. But DOJ will argue that some of those conversations were protected by executive privilege.

If a criminal prosecutor (like Mueller or the prosecutors in the Southern District of New York) wants to find out what Trump said to Whitaker, under existing precedent those conversations would almost certainly not be privileged.

So you ARE there...now, how about answering the others...

Did Obama listen to his generals? Fire his generals? Some of each?

Obama doing stuff in Africa:
Egypt
After escalating demonstrations challenged the long-standing strong-man rule of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Obama and many European leaders called for him to step down and he did so in 2011. The Egyptians elected a new government based on the Muslim Brotherhood. However the new President Mohamed Morsi was overthrown in 2013 by the military. President Obama noted that the crisis in Egypt is deplorable and tragic; the situations at the end of 2013 remained very tense.[51]

Libya
After initial skepticism of international involvement to prevent Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi from using violence to suppress popular demonstrations in his country,[52] the Obama administration crucially backed United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973 to create a Libyan no-fly zone, with United States Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice successfully pushing to include language allowing the UN mandate free rein to launch air attacks on Libyan ground targets threatening civilians.[53]

In March 2011, Obama authorized the firing of 110 Tomahawk cruise missiles against targets in Libya, in response to regime actions against rebel forces, to enforce the UN no-fly zone.
