Trump wins again, but now faces policy challenges.
The ignominious collapse of the Democratic claims and insinuations that Donald Trump was improperly connected to the Russian government has de-escalated the Democrats campaign against the president from a frenzied assault seeking impeachment and removal for a cause to be named later, to guerrilla war. Russian collusion has vanished down the same deep hole as the charges of sexism, racism, and a will to autocracy. It is widely believed that press reports in the New York Times and other outlets accustomed to receiving and amplifying anti-Trump leaks from within the administration (a thoroughly illegal process), as well as an aside of Democratic representative Adam Schiff of California, to the effect that the House Intelligence Committee would want to know about the surveillance of the Republican campaign, confirm that there was such surveillance.
Most intelligence-agency directors in the latter Obama era have volunteered that there was no evidence of such collaboration. The impact of Trumps famous tweet accusing Obama of tapping his telephones has been substantially muted, as the Democrats have assisted in repurposing the whole matter from panting like the Hound of the Baskervilles after evidence of Trump-Putin collusion to detached curiosity about intelligence practices, as if these were conducted without, as has been claimed, the knowledge of President Obama and his entourage. If that were entirely clear, the Obama camp would probably be even more unctuous than it has been.....

This Congressional a$$hole Swalwell whose district borders ours is presently on Tucker Carlson “outlining” how his “website” is going to prove Trump’s connections to Russia. BTW, Swalwell follows Fortney (Pete) Stark who, when he was in Congress, was King of the A$$holes. Swalwell, on his best day couldn’t hold a candle to Stark. Stark used to swear at his constituents and cut them off.
THEN THIS HAPPENED
collapses? tell that to BBC who have given the Sean Spicer “stalker” Shree Chauhan a HUGE platform on their “World Have Your Say” radio program, which broadcasts to many millions worldwide, and is repeated:
short audio:
14 March: BBC World Have Your Say: Why I confronted Sean Spicer in an Apple store and filmed it
Ms Chauhan, the founder of an education start-up...
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39254125
BBC presents Chauhan as the victim:
AUDIO: 13 March: BBC World Have Your Say: Religious Symbols at Work
Also the Indian American woman who confronted Sean Spicer in an Apple store tells us she doesn’t regret her actions
INTRO BY BBC’S RICK KELSEY features Shree, including some audio from her.
THEN, BEGINNING AT 27MINS IN UP TO 36MINS 15SECS, IT IS ALMOST ENTIRELY A WELL-PREPARED MONOLOGUE FROM CHAUHAN
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04w19x5
no mention whatsoever of her past Democrat connections:
13 Mar: Heavy.com: Shree Chauhan: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know
Teach for America reports of Chauhan: Shree worked for the U.S. Department of Education, in the Office of Planning, Evaluation and Policy Development where she counseled senior leaders, including the Assistant Secretary Martin and Secretary Duncan. She went on to serve in the U.S. Senate for Senators Tom Harkin (D-IA) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) advising on education issues.
given the disastrous Presidential election results for the Democrats, MSM is desperate to hold on to/claim back every minority possible for the Party, including Indian Americans, who voted heavily for President Trump.
it is so transparent, and further demeans the MSM.
Heh, I always loved the “Wide World of Sports” intro.
should have added there’s plenty of RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA from Shree Chauhan. BBC allows her to speak unchallenged.
I can watch that all day long ;-) The original “Epic Fail”
The agony of defeat.
I remember that: ‘The thrill of victory. The heartbreak of defeat!’ Bob McKay?
Yeah, that was Rick Maddow today, looking like a jerk.
How badly? I give you Rachel Maddow breathlessly releasing a 12-year-old partial tax form as if it were the Ark of the Covenant. That badly.
Didn’t know it was illegal to talk with people (even leaders) from other countries during an election.
But to another point. How hard must it be to be a republican running for president and then becoming president with the current MSM
Trump must be an exceptionally in control and a quite decent person to have nothing REALLY damaging to be found ( or it would have already).
I couldn’t be in the running for president for six days before I’d be forced to drop out :)
‘Agony’ of defeat.
Missed a little.
Stanley Ralph Ross.: “Spanning the globe to bring you the constant variety of sport
the thrill of victory
and the agony of defeat
the human drama of athletic competition
This is ABC’s Wide World of Sports!
Broadcast into your home, every weekend!
IIRC, there were several different versions of that into, showing the same wipeout from different angles. The later (1980s) version that started with the words "Spanning the Globe..." definitely looked different.
There was also a clip showing an ugly gymnastics fail, where a competitor ran straight into the side of a pommel horse. That one used to coax a chuckle out of my dad.
Maybe this is a huge difference between men and women.
Whenever I see those clips where someone “wipes out,” I cringe. I think of broken bones, contusions, massive internal injuries, and possible death. I can’t watch those “funny home video” shows because they show so many of those clips, which I do not find funny in the slightest.
But the current left, they want to claim that men and women are exactly the same...
Regardless, the charge has been firmly planted in the minds of Dem voters & activists to be later resurrected whenever it suits. The facts at that future date won’t matters because as we all know it’s the ‘seriousness of the charge’ that matters.
John McCain passes dossier alleging secret Trump-Russia contacts to FBI
Maybe he passed Trump’s tax returns also.
