Looks like lackluster shows but there is so much going on we really don’t need them.Also we have Sharyll and Maria so all is not lost.

The great Putin Trump meeting——everybody was late.
Putin agrees, but only if Mueller allows his guys to testify on how Hillary might have been part of the mess.
However confusing and whatever the case, this Russian thing is getting so old.
Mueller has found nothing against Trump in almost two years.
Why can’t they let the guy do the job?
And winner of the best fake award is JEFF SESSIONS!
For he pretended to be in love with Trump and let’s face it, Trump, like many folks I suppose, loves to be admired.
So Sessions, he played the part.
And as soon as Trump fell for the bait and appointed Sessions as head of the Department of Justice, he recuses himself of any investigation on the Russian collusion.
Jeff Sessions was Trumps first big mistake as President.

So with all the hoopla over that interview of Trump vs. Putin, I got one politico that jumped right in and condemned the President immediately.
It was Newt Gingrich, who just published a book. I don’t trust this guy although he has a somewhat stellar past.
He was Speaker of the House, author of “Contract with America”, a GOP hero of the day.
Now he worms his way into endless appearances on Fox shows. He and wife Calista write books.
To get attention, he will condemn the President in a minute…..saying…”over here! Look at me!”
He is an astute political observer but when he’s busy doing book tours and promoting same, he’ll say anything to get attention.
I am going to turn him off next time I see or hear the guy.

Judge Jenine Piro was a guest on that perfectly horrible show-”The View”.
With that wonderful, sweet and kind lady, Whoopi Goldberg, who likes to brag about her seven abortions.
She’s a really bad person this Goldberg woman.
She should be fired for how she yelled and screamed at Judge Jenine and finally told her to get the “F” our of the building.
I’m anxious to see how this turns out.
First, I must ask….don’t those people have to wear life jackets?
Second, what the hell are they doing out in that kind of weather?
The investigation is ongoing and as of this writing there are still people missing.
NBC - they’re talking, but no mention of Trump. Some guy named Tiger is the topic....
Thanks for this thread every week AB. I’ll be watching The Open and reading updates on this thread. Thankful that Chuck F Todd is preempted by The Open.

Looks like Wallace has his full #NeverTrump roundtable in full force to hammer hard. Not one show worth watching. What is the over/under on number of times “traitor” is said today, 50?
Little Marco making the rounds.
Trey...Trey...Trey....what have they got on you???

I almost forgot!
I had a wonderful time this week meeting up with FReeper Upchuck!
He’s a great guy! We had lunch and I took him on a tour of Auburn, Alabama, particularly the main campus of Auburn University where I used to work.
If you’ve ever been to Auburn then you know that the town and Auburn University are pretty much the same. I stopped full time teaching there in 2012 and it is really changing! The economy is booming and they’re adding new buildings at a record pace. I even got a little lost, since I could not go down certain streets anymore due to changing them into sidewalks and parks but Charlie navigated me safely out of my bewilderment!
I also showed him Toomers Corner where the massive oak tree used to be and told him the story about how the state trooper “Roll Tide” fan poisoned the tree 15 years back or so. As a Tide fan working for Auburn that was one of the saddest days of my life. Anyway, I wish he could have seen Toomers Corner on a Saturday night after a big win! Or maybe not. It’s nuts and pandemonium then!
Anyway, Charlie, it was great meeting you and your doggo Punkin and thanks for the fun!
ANY FReeper coming through Central East Alabama let me know and I will buy you lunch at LEAST.
