Here's a post in the comments section of the Washington Post that seems to have resonated... and I can see why, it captures everything in one simple list.


The “billionaire” who hides his tax returns.
The “genius” who hides his college grades.
The “businessman” who bankrupted 3 casinos and lost over $1B in 10 years.
The “playboy” who pays for sex.
The “Christian” who doesn’t go to church.
The “philanthropist” who defrauds charity.
The “patriot” who dodged the draft.
The “innocent man” who refuses to testify

7 out of 8 are technically true. So what?

Real estate went south.
Lost money.
I typed it all out back when.

What you people need to worry about aren't tax returns of a millionaire or billionaire who became a public servant, who doesn't even keep his check,
But look at the public servants who BECAME millionaires while a public servant..

Well that is a very interesting post, because I was just listening to Hakeem Jeffries clearly delineate Trump's crimes. And I was thinking to myself that forget about the what Trump and the GOP are doing to America, because after all, as you imply and as others have implied later in the thread, you don't really give a fcuk.

Now I understand that sentiment, however what Americans who are taking a partisan stand on the impeachment and therefore 'don't give a fcuk' about his solicitation of foreign interference, fail to understand is what he is doing to another country.

Ukraine is in dire danger of being subsumed by Ukraine and this is most definitely not in the security interests of the US. However even if you septics don't as you say 'give a crappity smack' about Ukraine, you surely must give a fcuk about going out of your way to corrupt a newly elected Ukrainian govt.

Now you may say, and indeed all partisan impeachment viewers must say "I don't give a fcuk about corrupting a new fragile democracy, and once again I say, you certainly may say that, but I  no longer wonder as I used to do, why people flew those planes into the twin towers.

Since I’ve made my pledge to treat and “speak” to people on here as I would strangers I struck up a conversation with at a real bar table, I think I’d have to take out one of those little eyeglass cleaner packets, pull out the cloth and clean your glasses because you aren’t seeing clearly.
