    Nah, he just appears right. Cause he was.

    Yes, Yankee...I know you don't need my approval, but you're getting it anyway. Deal with it! :smiley-boxing:

    Rosenstein has said that he won't fire Mueller unless there are substantial grounds ot do so. I don't see him quitting voluntarily because of that pledge. He knows what Trump would do if Rosenstein were to quit.

    If Rosenstein leaves it will be because Trump gave him the boot. Of course, that would kill Republicans even worse this November, probably including a Democrat takeover of the Senate.

    I'm not saying he wasn't right. Where did you get that thought?

    ...no, again, Lanny, not at all. All I was doing was pointing that another thread contained the same thing...as far as the "Anna goda davidda" thing, I was joking with you because I thought it was funny,... hell, I even pointed out that I was guilty of the same thing.

    You don't get to tell me how things appear to me. Only I get to tell how things appear to me.

    And my quip was not meant to be abrasive but I can see how it could be taken that way.

    Rosenstein seems to be a very smart guy...I doubt he'd be foolish enough to actually tell someone that he "taped" the prez. I would not be surprised if he's not setting Trump up.

    I said "Let me rephrase that. You appear picky today."
    You replied "...no, again, Lanny, not at all. ..." I assumed you were replying to my statement of you appearing picky. My appearance of you cannot be challenged. What appears to me appears to me. There is no right or wrong about it unless I say that I misspoke which I did not. I didn't actually say you were picky but that it appeared that way. I hope this treatise clears this up.

    Let me be clear, I like you. I say that lest anyone get any other idea.

    President Trump appeared to blame Attorney General Jeff Sessions for the latest controversy surrounding Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein Sunday, saying that Sessions had "hired" Rosenstein to be his second-in-command.

    "He was hired by Jeff Sessions," Trump said in an interview with "The Geraldo Show" on WTAM radio. "I was not involved in that process because, you know, they go out and get their own deputies and the people that work in the department."


    ...Trump is a lying POS...in other news, water is wet.

    Now this is the gratuitous sort of post I find most offensive. Just making crude posts about our President without purpose or any attempt at having a discussion.

    This sort of post adds nothing to the forum except perhaps a virtue signal

    "Trump nominated Rosenstein to be deputy attorney general on Jan. 31, 2017. He was confirmed as the second-ranking official at the Justice Department in April of last year."

    These sort of numbers support yankees59 claim. Do you average over 7 lies a day?

    Kudos to the Mod/s.

    I think I may have read something somewhere where you questioned Trump's moral character. Did you ever reach a conclusion?
