    and that's a complete misrepresentation of what I said and meant. Do you really need it clarified?

    Where on God’s green earth were you in the ‘90’s????? Eight effing years spent by the Republicans doing their utmost to remove Clinton. All because of an alleged shady business deal prior to his assuming the presidency, along with receiving a (consensual) hummer in the Oval Office. 20+ years later it’s the same frickin’ deal. Only the names have changed and the political parties have swapped roles. But I guess that makes it okay for you as long as your side is the one shitting on this country. And here you said you weren’t a cannabis user........

    No, I was referring to you saying "almost half the country supports" Trump.

    Some Trumpers evidently have very short memories or perhaps selective amnesia.

    Not really.


    Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
    The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-nine percent (49%) disapprove.

    The latest figures include 37% who Strongly Approve of the job Trump is doing and 42% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -5. (see trends).

    The president’s overall approval has been tracking up since Wednesday, the first day of the House impeachment hearings. It was at 46% on Wednesday morning, then rose to 48% yesterday and is now at 50%. Two of the three nights in today’s survey follow the highly-publicized hearings.

    Regular updates are posted Monday through Friday at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily email update).

    Now that Gallup has quit the field, Rasmussen Reports is the only nationally recognized public opinion firm that still tracks President Trump's job approval ratings on a daily basis. If your organization is interested in a weekly or longer sponsorship of Rasmussen Reports' Daily Presidential Tracking Poll, please send e-mail to beth@rasmussenreports.com.

    If anyone cannot recognize witness tampering and obstruction of justice by Trump they are not willing to pay attention for partisan posturing alone at this point...you cannot degrade or insult a witness in an ongoing special counsel investigation or an impeachment hearing nor the judge or investigative staff..for conservatives who value the Constitution and the republic and most definitely not withhold military aid for political partisan dirt on the competition...this is simply not acceptable behavior by a president period. Truth in fact is truth. You also most certainly cannot threaten a whistleblower raising a flag of concern with treason and death penalty either. Trump doesn't get to play feudal warlord with my country.

    Jim Jordan and his band of blind mice tried their best to spin it a way that implied that it was OK for Trump to do that because the hearings were unfair.

    ...unfreaking-believable.

    It's a power grab to make the executive branch the only branch of govt....monarchy, dictatorship, same ball of wax...discredit the media first and refuse to negotiate with the nations representatives.

    ROTFLMAO!

    The Rasmussen poll? That's like saying Fox news is unbiased. My link averages all the polls including the Rasmussen. Nice try, but you really need to wake up early if you think you can beat me. :smiley-violence:

    Is that why you're so cranky? :laugh:

    edit: I really did mean this as a joke, but if it breaks any personal insult rules or whatever I'll delete it.

    How did this become a debate on abortion (or more specifically, a debate among men about under what circumstances they would force a woman to carry a pregnancy to term against her will)?

    I might have to name a cat after the ambassador.

    Confirmed multitasker. During testimony I made dough for all three Thanksgiving pie crusts, caramel sauce, as well as general cooking, reconciled checkbook, paid credit card bills, updated recipe files, washed a load of dishes and cleaned the floor.

    I love how Trump complained this wasn't a public hearing and when it became a public hearing, complained that it was a public hearing.

    I don't think anyone was debating it in this thread, maybe "debating" what the numbers are for "for or against", but I didn't see anyone actually debating it.

    By the way, you're well prepared for thanksgiving! My wife brings up the holidays and I'm unprepared I am so not ready, I need 4 more months or so before I'm ready for the holidays.
