Most Senators and Congressmen are all liberals, you have liberal Democrats and liberal RINOs. They have been running the US into the ground all these years with NAFTA, subprime loans, wars, huge deficits, you name it!
Why the hell should elected government have to face down a populist movement? The govt is supposed to represented the people not special interests. Your thinking is exactly why Bernie's people despised Clinton and many republicans were against Bush. 60 to 70 percent of Americans realize they are not properly represented in D.C. Trump went over the top because Democrats in Democrat states crossed over against your party. Conservatives are far from dead. 35% of the people identify as conservative as opposed to 26 percent as liberal. The issue is the swing independent votes. That is why your side tries so hard to demonize and create divides. They need to chop out a lot of independents who might normally identify as wanting lower taxes and better representation.
How are all those progressives being added to the court lately workin out for ya? You probably should spend more time worrying about the socialist populist movement destroying your little dnc-rat's nest party and how their nominee will fly on a national ticket outside of the known commie states.
Sure, and the dems will put one on the national ticket. And then let the people decide rather than the FBI/DOJ.
Ann Coulter accuses Jared Kushner of writing the NYT column and wrecking the Trump presidency. Jared Kushner Wrote Anonymous ‘NYT’ Column, Ann Coulter Claims Ann Coulter said she believes Trump's son-in-law and senior White House adviser, Jared Kushner, wrote the anonymous 'NYT' column because 'he and Ivanka are going to have to go back to the Upper East Side and go to the Hamptons.' Allegedly written by a senior Trump administration official, and published on September 5, the anonymous New York Times column has been the subject of widespread debate. As the Inquisitr reported earlier today, the NYT piece is allegedly causing headache for the already supposedly anarchic White House, sowing discord, and making President Trump lose sleep, while his closest confidants – concerned about the direction the administration is heading in – leak insider information to the press. The Washington Examiner recently published an elaborate list of senior administration officials who publicly denied writing the NYT column. Dozens have denied writing the piece, and it remains unclear who the mysterious, anonymous author is. Conservative commentator Ann Coulter, however, has her own theory: Jared Kushner wrote the anonymous NYT column. Ann Coulter said she believes Trump’s son-in-law and senior White House adviser, Jared Kushner, wrote the NYT column because “he and Ivanka are going to have to go back to the Upper East Side and go to the Hamptons,” According to Ann Coulter, while Jared Kushner has done some good things for the president and for the country – namely, firing James Comey, endorsing Luther Strange, supporting tax cuts, hiring Anthony Scaramucci – Jared has also supported prison reform, “which you’d think would be a little embarrassing for a guy whose father spent time in prison,” Coulter said. As the Daily Beast noted, Jared’s father, Charles Kushner, served 14 months in a federal penitentiary, and time in a halfway house, for witness tampering felonies, tax evasion, and election law violations. Apart from claiming that Jared Kushner penned the anonymous NYT column, Coulter has also accused Trump’s son-in-law of “wrecking his presidency.” n her latest book, Resistance Is Futile! How the Trump-Hating Left Lost Its Collective Mind, Ann Coulter argued that Trump is effectively trapped, unable to fire Robert Mueller or Jared Kushner, and unaware that his daughter’s husband is actually working against him.
https://www.axios.com/anonymous-war...ons-302546bd-680c-41dd-b46f-f85d8e459079.html Scoop: "Anonymous" to expose private Trump conversations The anonymous "senior Trump administration official" who will release a tell-all book, "A Warning," next month was a frequent participant in meetings with President Trump and plans to recount specific conversations, sources tell me. The state of play: The author,who has been silent since last year's mysterious New York Times op-ed, has access to extensive, internal notes that will be revealed in the book, out Nov. 19. "You will hear a great deal from Donald Trump directly, for there is no better witness to his character than his own words," the author writes on the book's back cover, seen for the first time in the graphic above. Applauding those who are currently coming forward in the Ukraine investigation, the author expects other senior administration officials to come forward soon and share their stories. "Hopefully others will remedy the error of silence and speak out," the author says on the jacket. The author of the book, which hit #1 on Amazon within 24 hours of its announcement, has agreed to at least one interview with a journalist to coincide with publication, 25 days from now. The format and interviewer haven't been decided. The publisher and agent have been deluged with pitches from national and international media outlets. No topic will be off limits in the interview, including a direct, firsthand account of what the author calls presidential misconduct. The author, who's being called the original whistleblower of this administration, will explain the decision to remain unknown. It hasn't been disclosed if the author remains a government employee. The author didn't take an advance, according to the literary agents for the project, Keith Urbahn and Matt Latimer of Javelin.
Book by ‘Anonymous’ describes Trump as cruel, inept and a danger to the nation https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...b6c6f2-0150-11ea-8bab-0fc209e065a8_story.html Senior Trump administration officials considered resigning en masse last year in a “midnight self-massacre” to sound a public alarm about President Trump’s conduct, but rejected the idea because they believed it would further destabilize an already teetering government, according to a new book by an unnamed author. In “A Warning” by Anonymous, obtained by The Washington Post ahead of its release, a writer described only as “a senior official in the Trump administration” paints a chilling portrait of the president as cruel, inept and a danger to the nation he was elected to lead. The author — who first captured attention in 2018 as the unidentified author of a New York Times opinion column — describes Trump careening from one self-inflicted crisis to the next, “like a twelve-year-old in an air traffic control tower, pushing the buttons of government indiscriminately, indifferent to the planes skidding across the runway and the flights frantically diverting away from the airport.” The book is an unsparing character study of Trump, from his morality to his intellectual depth, which the author writes is based on his or her observations and experiences. The author claims many other current and former administration officials share his or her views. The 259-page book — which was published by Twelve, an imprint of Grand Central Publishing/Hachette Book Group, and goes on sale Nov. 19 — does not re-create many specific episodes in vivid detail, which the author writes was intentional to protect his or her identity. At a moment when a stream of political appointees and career public servants have testified before Congress about Trump’s conduct as part of the House impeachment inquiry, the book’s author defends his or her decision to remain anonymous. “I have decided to publish this anonymously because this debate is not about me,” the author writes. “It is about us. It is about how we want the presidency to reflect our country, and that is where the discussion should center. Some will call this ‘cowardice.’ My feelings are not hurt by the accusation. Nor am I unprepared to attach my name to criticism of President Trump. I may do so, in due course.” White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham derided the book as a “work of fiction” and its anonymous author as a “coward.” “The coward who wrote this book didn’t put their name on it because it is nothing but lies,” Grisham wrote in an email. “Real authors reach out to their subjects to get things fact checked — but this person is in hiding, making that very basic part of being a real writer impossible. Reporters who choose to write about this farce should have the journalistic integrity to cover the book as what it is — a work of fiction.” Earlier this week, the Justice Department warned Hachette and the author’s agents, Matt Latimer and Keith Urbahn of Javelin, that the anonymous official may be violating a nondisclosure agreement. Javelin responded by accusing the administration of seeking to unmask the author. The author’s Sept. 5, 2018, op-ed in the Times, headlined “I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration,” depicted some senior officials as a bulwark protecting the country from the president’s reckless impulses. Trump denounced it at the time as treasonous. In the book, the author repudiates the central thesis of the column: “I was wrong about the ‘quiet resistance’ inside the Trump administration. Unelected bureaucrats and cabinet appointees were never going to steer Donald Trump the right direction in the long run, or refine his malignant management style. He is who he is.” The author describes senior officials waking up in the morning “in a full-blown panic” over the wild pronouncements the president had made on Twitter. “It’s like showing up at the nursing home at daybreak to find your elderly uncle running pantsless across the courtyard and cursing loudly about the cafeteria food, as worried attendants tried to catch him,” the author writes. “You’re stunned, amused, and embarrassed all at the same time. Only your uncle probably wouldn’t do it every single day, his words aren’t broadcast to the public, and he doesn’t have to lead the US government once he puts his pants on.” The book depicts Trump as making misogynistic and racist comments behind the scenes. “I’ve sat and listened in uncomfortable silence as he talks about a woman’s appearance or performance,” the author writes. “He comments on makeup. He makes jokes about weight. He critiques clothing. He questions the toughness of women in and around his orbit. He uses words like ‘sweetie’ and ‘honey’ to address accomplished professionals. This is precisely the way a boss shouldn’t act in the work environment.” The author alleges that Trump attempted a Hispanic accent during an Oval Office meeting to complain about migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. “We get these women coming in with like seven children,” Trump said, according to the book. “They are saying, ‘Oh, please help! My husband left me!’ They are useless. They don’t do anything for our country. At least if they came in with a husband we could put him in the fields to pick corn or something.” The author argues that Trump is incapable of leading the United States through a monumental international crisis, describing how he tunes out intelligence and national security briefings and theorizing that foreign adversaries see him as “a simplistic pushover” who is susceptible to flattery and easily manipulated. After the 2018 killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi agents, the author writes, Trump vented to advisers and said he would be foolish to stand up to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. “Do you know how stupid it would be to pick this fight?” Trump said, according to the book. “Oil would go up to one hundred fifty dollars a barrel. Jesus. How [expletive] stupid would I be?” The book contains a handful of startling assertions that are not backed up with evidence, such as a claim that if a majority of the Cabinet were prepared to remove Trump from office under the 25th Amendment, Vice President Pence would have been supportive. Pence denied this on Thursday, calling the book “appalling” and telling reporters, “I never heard anything in my time as vice president about the 25th Amendment. And why would I?” One theme laced throughout the book is Trump’s indifference to the boundaries of the law. The author writes that Trump considered presidential pardons as “unlimited ‘Get Out of Jail Free’ cards on a Monopoly board,” referring to news reports that he had offered pardons to aides. As he ranted about federal courts ruling against some of his policies, including the 2017 travel ban, the author writes, Trump once asked White House lawyers to draft a bill to send to Congress reducing the number of federal judges. “Can we just get rid of the judges? Let’s get rid of the [expletive] judges,” the president said, according to the book. “There shouldn’t be any at all, really.” The author portrays Trump as fearful of coups against him and suspicious of note-takers on his staff. According to the book, the president shouted at an aide who was scribbling in a notebook during a meeting, “What the [expletive] are you doing?” He added, “Are you [expletive] taking notes?” The aide apologized and closed the notebook. The author also ruminates about Trump’s fitness for office, describing him as reckless and without full control of his faculties. “I am not qualified to diagnose the president’s mental acuity,” the author writes. “All I can tell you is that normal people who spend any time with Donald Trump are uncomfortable by what they witness. He stumbles, slurs, gets confused, is easily irritated, and has trouble synthesizing information, not occasionally but with regularity. Those who would claim otherwise are lying to themselves or to the country.”
