I’m posting a liberal example. POTUS got goaded out of early compromise by Coulter and Bannon and Limbaugh, we’re told, but here’s Politico trying to goad Mr. Trump the other way. Or do Coulter and Bannon and Limbaugh not count as media ? Gotta sift all of it for the kernels of truth, says I. Your thoughts?

My current favorite American political craziness is the idea that a Senator is being blackmailed by Russian agents and Jews for being gay.

His insipid “wall” is nothing more than a racist vanity project that has been proven hopelessly ineffectual in practice.

It is not that the Dems do not support border security. They simply recognize the implications of allowing a tyrant to have his way whenever he throws a tantrum like the fucking child that he is.

W here’s the goading? “The president has been uncharacteristically silent” ? They are talking about this man:

I’m failing to see how r eferring to a silence from him on an issue about which he has said a lot,   as out of his usual character, is goading .

I prefer the good old days when a presidential candidate was accused of running a child sex-trafficking ring out of a pizza joint

Yea, I really doubt that’s case. I’m more inclined to believe Graham is just a self serving fool who thinks brown nosing the President will get him something.

But, with how crazy everything is I also wouldn’t be shocked if that conspiracy theory ended up being true.

Or being born in Kenya.  Or faking National Guard service.  Or having sexual relations with that woman.

I miss the days when we were able to make fun of things like candidates thinking they’re like us normal people because they own like 19 Cadillacs.

They’re egging him on, to reply to Mrs. Pelosi’s taking away the SOTU TV cameras, so they have something to report on. And their observation happens to be accurate, IMHO.

And exactly none of that is homophobic. The question is literally, direct quote, “What do they have on you?” You’re reading crap into it that just isn’t there, period.

And what exactly is your point in showing a completely unrelated tweet from somebody else entirely that has absolutely nothing to do with what Chris Evans tweeted?

Seriously. You’re reaching and then some trying to claim Chris Evans’ tweet is any way homophobic.

edit: Oh, and it is absolutely not homophobic to imply the blackmail material is - direct quote - “pretty serious sexual kink.” That’s not implying anything other than an embarrassing (or illegal) sexual proclivity.

Given the terrorist party has run around screaming about making being gay illegal while cheerfully hosting and promoting actual child molesters, and many of their most vocal and violent “kill the gays!!” champions were later outed as homosexual? Hey guess what. You lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. (Which is why I hold that anyone who is LGBTQ and supports any of them is too fucking stupid to vote.)

Smithers being closeted is a recurring theme, but sure

Really? And it has nothing  to do with Smithers being an openly craven, obedient sycophant completely lacking in spine whose exclusive interest in life and love is licking the boots of Montgomery Burns?

If you look hard enough for something, you’ll eventually find it.

This is great - he canceled her week-long international trip as retaliation for threatening to stop the State of the Union address. I don’t see this as media goading, more like two 70+ yr olds behaving like feuding high school chee rleaders.

No, the headline was changed after I made the post. When I posted, it said, “No reaction from Trump 24 hours after Pelosi’s disinvite.” Or similar. Which, coming from liberal media, struck me as a dare issued to Trump.

But why would Nancy Pelosi want to go abroad for a week with the government shut down anyhow?

Somewhere along the line, someone told me that in any negotiation, the person who gives the first number surrenders the negotiation.

I do not think I have watched ten minutes of SOTU, in aggregate, in all my 54 years of life.
