Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

Where do you think they got it from?
What politics are the Republicans playing? Feinstein had this and never once questioned him in the private or the public hearings about this. This is classic "The fight started when he hit me back." What would you expect the Republicans to do when the Dems pull these shenanigans?

The stakes are much much higher now. Garland never had a chance. Imagine 6 more years of Trump and theyre playing this game.

the problem always was that the FBI investigation will never be good enough. I was saying on shabbos that the dems will say it's too short or something wrong etc.  and the media will run with it. and apperantly thats exactly what's happening. now the story line is the White House is limiting the investigation. the Republicans are fighting a losing battle uness the FBI finds a really big hole in her story

Anyone with predictions on various reactions after the FBI finishes assuming it adds no significant new evidence?
A very big difference between Swetlick's allegations and the others is that her claim is that it was very public, common, and well known. Yet..... (as an aside, the name of the show that she did the interview for is quite apropos!)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/white-house-directs-fbi-to-interview-first-two-kavanaugh-accusers-but-not-the-third-1538256505
The Wall Street Journal has attempted to corroborate Ms. Swetnick’s account, contacting dozens of former classmates and colleagues, but couldn't reach anyone with knowledge of her allegations. No friends have come forward to publicly support her claims.
She has recorded a TV interview to be aired Sunday, the first woman making accusations against the Supreme Court nominee to do so. NBC’s “Morning Joe” on Thursday aired a clip of her interview with John Heilemann of Showtime’s “The Circus,” in which Ms. Swetnick called for an investigation into the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh.

Much of this is based on a difference between denying knowledge and cenying existence, but he does make some good points.

It seems many things are off limits. If his friends would talk to the FBI saying they drank with him to the point of him passing out is that allowed?

FOX and Trump call Dr Ford "creditable". When I called her creditable I show bias and was repeating a D's taking point.
I call for a FBI investigation and it is bias and a D talking point. Trump calls for a FBI investigation after he says they don't this and not peep from the peanut gallery here.

Just because two words are the same doesn't make them equal. That is especially relevant regarding someone who changed their positions about this specific topic after being called out. This distinction was mentioned already Friday yet conveniently ignored. What Flake called for was one limited in scope and time. W are already hearing complaints about that.

How many times did K say beer, he likes beer or drinks beer? Why was he crying when talked about working out drinking beer? Who drinks beer working out?

If you go to a job interview and the questions they ask you are about sexual misconduct and drinking to much what do you think are your chances to get the job?  :)
