Hannity. Since there are no actual briefings, he'll be able to keep his radio and TV shows too.

Bullock's own fault for not announcing earlier

Would've been interesting to see how the DNC handled it if one more person qualified since they said it'd be a max of 20 included

These tanker bombings scream out false flag. Why in the world would Iran attack our tanker with Trump at the helm. He is begging to find a distraction heading into 2020 and Bolton fucking loves war. We'll pummel them and it makes zero sense for them to do this. We're going to go to war with Iran very soon and it's to help Trump get reelected..

War is not popular. Iran has Russia at its side to keep trump in check.

Is it going to be 20 on stage at once? That will be horrific.

Asked during a call-in interview on “Fox & Friends” what he would do if he was given such information, Trump said “of course you have to look at it” to “know if it’s bad.”

But he added that “if I thought anything was incorrect or badly stated I'd report to the FBI or law enforcement, absolutely.”

“Of course you give it to the FBI or report it to the attorney general,”


That is something else. When trying to spin it, you manage to create a new controversy of subjective assessment based on "incorrectness" (how would you know) or "badly stated" (like a tweet?).

Sarah has let it be known that she sees being governor as a good next step?

We have our own Jackie O.


I guess it is a safe statement because many who remember the Kennedy White House are in a better place, many others have experience the propaganda campaign, and more just do not have any understanding of the popularity of Jack and Jackie aside from it being a historic footnote. I guess a parallel is that Jack has been reported to have cheated on Jackie frequently, and with a Playboy Bunny.

Host Ainsley Earhardt defended Sanders' time at the podium and highlighted the complex nature of the job.

"She is a mother. Her kids read these headlines. She was serving our country in the White House," Earhardt said. "Yeah, you might not agree with her politics, but what a phenomenal job and a tough job. We should support her," she continued.

Yeah, and James Comey's kids read the headlines when SHS lied about "countless" FBI agents telling her what a terrible leader Comey was and they were glad he was gone.

"Remember: for the left, all politics is personal," Higgins responded, adding that there was an effort to "delegitimize" Sanders' voice as well as other female figures who support or work for Trump.

SHS delegitimized her own voice with her incessant lying and constant berating of the WH press corp. The fact that she is a woman has nothing to do with it. Also, it is rich for anybody at Fox (or anyone defending the President and/or those in his orb) to cry sexism.

"It basically tells you that it's OK to treat people who disagree with you with disdain and contempt and sort of write them out of the picture," she said. "And that's all driven by a very different worldview of who we are as people and what to expect."[/b]

Absolutely priceless to defend SHS by describing what she did just about every fucking day on the job.

“We have our own Jackie O,” he told the “Fox and Friends” hosts. “It’s called Melania…we’ll call it Melania T.”

ITS called Melania?!?!? I'm sure SHE was thrilled with being called "it". Where is Lloyd Bentsen when you need him, "Madame First Lady, you're no Jackie O".

The concept of his most recent model wife is clearly divorced from the person playing that role.

It is possible, but there are two Republicans who are likely goikg to run as well, and probably have a solid head start regarding fundraising and such.
