Well, for one, the "swing" newbies lied to get elected.

#1: Pollousi is speaker.
#2: Pushing for impeachment.
#3: Continued "investigations"!
#4: Infrastructure improvements.
#5: Immigration reform.

They have 6 months to do it.

He never will.
Investors are getting tired of the tweets that cause the market to drop almost 500 points like it did this morning. I know, buying opportunities but then you don't know when the next tweet is going to drop another 500 or raise it 300.

So when is President Trump challenged? He fought off the collusion delusion challenge for two years. Two years of bullshit and the economy, market, and people are doing GREAT! But you claim he's DEFLECTING...oh I get it...you don't think Obama is getting enough credit. Revisit his "magic wand"statement.

The FISA court bullshit is a big deal. If you don't believe it then you're a corrupt democrat.

So you think spying on a political campaign is NO BIG DEAL? Great! The dim-retards have normalized it!

When will they admit the 1972 Watergate break-in at the DNC headquarters was no big deal either?

I mean, shouldn't they apologize for driving Nixon out of office 45 years ago?

Do they even give a shit about being consistent?

Or do they believe the rules only apply to others???

IB - I read the same thing when the FISA scandal first broke. This is very pertinent, considering that 98% of FISA applications are quickly and routinely approved. Seems like the initial rejection part has been hushed up by the MSM. Do you have a reliable source?

"Deputy director Andrew McCabe testified before the Committee in December 2017 that no surveillance warrant would have been sought from FISC without the Steele dossier information.”

John McCain passes dossier alleging secret Trump-Russia contacts to FBI

The Guardian has learned that the FBI applied for a warrant from the foreign intelligence surveillance (Fisa) court over the summer in order to monitor four members of the Trump team suspected of irregular contacts with Russian officials. The Fisa court turned down the application asking FBI counter-intelligence investigators to narrow its focus.

(The Guardian)

Quote:
The Odumbo Camp’s Disingenuous Denials on FISA Surveillance of Trump

In June, the Odumbo Justice Department submitted an application that apparently “named” Trump in addition to some of his associates. As I have stressed, it is unclear whether “named” in this context indicates that Trump himself was cited as a person the Justice Department was alleging was a Russian agent whom it wanted to surveil. It could instead mean that Trump’s name was merely mentioned in an application that sought to conduct surveillance on other alleged Russian agents. President Trump’s tweets on Saturday claimed that “President Odumbo . . . tapp[ed] my phones[,]” which makes it more likely that Trump was targeted for surveillance, rather than merely mentioned in the application.

In any event, the FISA court reportedly turned down the Odumbo Justice Department’s request, which is notable: The FISA court is notoriously solicitous of government requests to conduct national-security surveillance (although, as I’ve noted over the years, the claim by many that it is a rubber-stamp is overblown).

Not taking no for an answer, the Odumbo Justice Department evidently returned to the FISA court in October 2016

Spygate: The Attempted Sabotage of Donald J. Trump by Dan Bongino

Page 203: "OCTOBER 21: A FISA request is granted to spy on Carter Page after the Justice Department and FBI applied a second time, thanks to 'new evidence' from Steele's dossier and what appeared to be corroborating evidence from a Michel Isikoff article" [Isikoff's article is also sourced to Steele; hence, the FBI is using "circular evidence" in its FISA application -- and the FBI does not tell the FISA Court that the ultimate source for both pieces of their so-called supporting evidence is from the same agent who is in the employ of hildebeest].
The original source was bought-out by and folded into Market Watch which no longer has a page for this story.

Mr. President focus on the economy and not the FISA investigation....EXCELLENT advice.
You want Mr.Barr gone too don't you speed??
FISA warrant investigation...NOT an important issue!!
Did speed leave the building??

due to the obstruction of the collusion investigation, all they did succeed in delaying Trumps control of the govt. by 2 years.


2 years!!! that's longer than any other president to get his govt. established.

I don't disagree at all with your statement that "Trump's supporters love his tweets." However Trump will not win the 2020 election with just his loyal supporters. He needs millions of votes from Independents and in my opinion most people who are NOT loyal supporters of Trump are turned off by his tweets. However, there is little way to prove it one way or the other.

Sorry if I don't always respond to your posts in the speed you desire.

Again with the economy. Despite ALL the positive statistics on the economy, I would expect more than 56% of those polled to approve. I personally give Trump good marks on his handling of the economy. Far from perfect but he's done much better there than in most other areas. What is "over site"?

I don't care about Barr. IF he stays in office, fine. If he is forced to leave, fine. Unless he continues to kiss Trump's ass Trump will fire him anyway.

Strange how I haven't read or heard anything on FISA recently. Supposedly a report will be released either this month or next on the investigation. My prediction is it will have no impact on the 2020 elections.

You're not listening to the right people. In an interview with Catherine Herridge, five days ago, Trump said he will release the applications for the FISA warrants in the near future, probably after Horowitz reports. There's a high probability that Biden's association with the Odumbo administration which sponsored this FISA mess will cost him any chance at winning the presidency.

I respect your opinion. I will wait until the investigation reaches its conclusion before determining any damage done to anyone that would impact the 2020 election.

Have you known any President in your lifetime to be as completely vilified as Trump and having a booming economy not see in almost 50 yrs?

Now we have people like yourself come up with the asinine response..."not everyone is getting the benefit of it". Hummmmm...SOCIALISM...not you speed!!

His low approval rating that don't match his job performance...because the drive-by TRASH him every day...they hate him just like you.

The DEMS took over Congress, and you are so proud of that...having show themselves to be the bumbling fuck ups that they actually are.

They want to hold Mr.Barr in contempt for telling the truth...if this isn't a bunch of malcontents then tell me what is?

Please tell us ONE thing this Congress has accomplished since taking over that you or ANYONE on the left can attest to?

I'm sorry. Your posts are becoming so hateful and illogical that I am not going to waste my time responding to them.

However, I'd like to correct you on something. Congress is made up of the House and Senate. Democrats control the House and Republicans control the Senate. When you talk about Congress failing to accomplish anything, you are correctly laying blame on both parties.

I hate a party that is trying to destroy America...illogical... when I ask you direct questions about comments you made 'not everyone is benefiting from the booming economy"...that kind of illogical.
At the present time the talk is impeachment and Mr. Barr getting locked up...this circus is in the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES...so tell me speed what kind of progress Is this...you like polls...the voters don't want impeachment and it looks like the LSM is now "concerned" about the boarder.
What is the winning issue for you buddies in the HOUSE??

Approximately 52% of the people in this country have money invested in the stock market. That means about 48% don't care how high the stock market goes. As I've stated before, the recent tax reform package benefited people in the upper middle class and above, with those at the middle of the middle class and below benefiting far less. Meanwhile the tariffs imposed by Trump are currently hurting EVERYONE in this country.

America's Real Economy: It Isn't Booming

https://www.forbes.com/sites/peterge.../#1ea31efb60b7

Why aren't many Americans benefiting from the robust U.S. economy?

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money...omy/705655002/

“People that depend on wages -- and that’s essentially almost everyone except higher-income or higher-wealth individuals -- are not seeing as much benefit from this economy,” Gregory Daco, head of U.S. macroeconomics at Oxford Economics, told Bloomberg. “People at the lower end of the income spectrum are actually more constrained.”

https://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2018/...nary-Americans

If you have any source of information that says ALL people in this country have benefited from the booming economy, please post a link to it.

I do NOT support impeachment even being discussed. I wish Democrats would put investigations on the back burner and focus on Trump himself. THAT alone can be a winning issue.
