Bob Woodward’s Stunning Look into the Presidency

@JayJay

So you’re an ends justify the means type guy.

Got it.

I have no clue what you are talking about, but if you mean that Trump sitting in the WH gets me a conservative agenda, then ok.

Really?? Since when is being opposed to ballooning national debt number and continuing deficits a “LW talking point”?? Since when is being opposed to socialistic wealth redistribution to protect certain segments a “LW talking point”??

The things @NebraskaFootball are talking about have always been part of the conservative platform. Not sure where you’ve been all this time

They are talking points recited by Trump hating LIBs and conservative Never Trumpers.

You can pretend that Trump isn’t governing from the right if you like, but that won’t change reality.

In that case - if wanting decreasing debt, elimination of deficits, and smaller government with less wealth redistribution are “lib” principles now, mark me down as a lib - because that’s exactly what I believe.

There is nothing to discuss with someone who just regurgitates talking points.

You call everything you don’t like “talking points”. You call any negative attention towards Trump “frothing”. You are a waste of time on this forum. Bye.

“Some choice cuts, reflecting the way administration officials and alumni depicted Trump to Woodward:”

"Trump was editing an upcoming speech with [then-staff secretary Rob] Porter. Scribbling his thoughts in neat, clean penmanship, the president wrote, ‘TRADE IS BAD.’"

Furious Trump trapped by hundreds of Woodward tapes

Ends justify the means means you don’t believe in principled approaches to get things done, but rather as long as you get what you want, you don’t care how it was accomished.

“the right” includes trillion dollar deficits now?

[wonderingrover]

I’ve got to admit - that one baffled me.

Trump saying there were good people at a nazi rally strengthened the resolve of his supporters.

It really did among many of them. What they heard was “White people are superior to their dark counterparts”.

@Konssurvative1

Same here…but you know the argument…i did it for the Supreme Court so it’s ok!

And the logic behind that position was never more clear than it is today. This would have been Hillary’s second big leftist Supreme Court nomination. You can kick Trump out (maybe) or Hillary out, you couldn’t kick those justices out.

break the world’s leading democracy to get two right wing judges. Brilliant.

If voters didn’t care about things ranging from big to tiny then Rush and Fox wouldn’t have shows.

The average person is only interested in things that directly affect them in their daily lives. They aren’t paying attention to what Trump said or didn’t say about Sessions.

Well, that’s not true. They may not discuss it daily like we do but if they can hear stuff about Colin Kaepernick and Kim Kardashian they can certainly hear stuff about Donald Trump.

Based on Peek’s highly-compensated analysis of trends in the deficit, where he picks 2 data points out of 1,000, smears vaseline on his computer screen, squints and exclaims “Under Trump, there is no deficit!!!” . . . yes.

[DougBH]

@hindsight

Trump denies calling Sessions those things. Who to believe, Bob Woodward or Donald Trump? Boy, this is a tough decision.

I would believe Woodward…IF Woodward alleged that he heard Trump say that himself. Second or third hand hearsay? Not so sure.

[MichaelScarn]

That’s just a LW talking point, or did you forget that liberals are against PETROLEUM jelly???

Nothing is broken except the civility of the left…and that happened a long time ago.
