Some of you are a little off on that steam remark.

He's not saying the SHIPS should run on steam, just that the plane catapults should, as they do now, because it's cheaper as an initial purchase.

Planes don't have enough room on carriers to take off like a plane at an airport. They get launched at high speed.

I only posted the article to make fun of Trump for saying the magnet method is "too complicated to understand." I have no idea what the right call is on the actual launchers.

I see the acting FBI Director handled this about how I thought it would.

Why anyone thought one man being fired when hundreds of people are likely working on this probe into Trump would cause this to end is beyond me.

How did he handle it?

One thing he did is very clearly and decisively, under oath, destroy Trump's narrative that Comey had lost the rank and file FBI's confidence

I mean, if we really do end up with a RICO case against the entire fucking GOP what even happens next?

I guess this is better than president Ryan.

Am I the only one who things that if the president, vice president, and speaker of the house are all dumped at once, we should probably just discard something like the chain of succession and have a new fucking election, given that something very obviously went wrong at some point?

Someone has to be Acting President in the interim though.

There's that famous image of LBJ taking the Oath of Office in the middle of a crowd on Air Force One as Kennedy is being pronounced dead at some hospital in Dallas.

Pretty sure McCabe can even be replaced before a permanent replacement is confirmed.

If he is, it will completely shatter the narrative that Comey wasn't fired for political reasons.

Like, that won't even be remotely defensible.

I'm not sure how this nuance makes any difference

Like, you're either already hip to the fact that Trump is badly corrupt, or you're probably not gonna figure it out

You have a point. But we know how malleable independents can be with optics as a tool.

Based on questions from that Quinnipiac poll we were talking about yesterday, Independents are already within 10-15 points of Democrats feelings about the Trump administration

And Democrats were always 85-95% down on Trump on every subject except economy

I just googled and watched this video. He and I have very similar worldviews....am I going to end up like Trump?

his father had alzheimers so I think it is just genetics, but who knows, maybe worldview can cause mental decay as well!

I live with and help care for my 80-year old grandfather who suffers from the early stages of dementia

I'm not kidding when I say he's more coherent than modern Trump off the cuff.

Trump doesn't really show many signs of any form of dementia with his speech though, a scant few occasions excepted.

I honestly think it's mostly NPD working overtime to filter every passing thought into self-praise causing syntax errors.

But for LTM to say Tim "feels good when he hurts people he doesn't like" and act like that is weird shows that he has zero grasp on human emotion. I wish the a-word wasn't banned on here because that's the real conclusion I'm drawing.

This confuses me. How were they "tricked?"

Lavrov told them that it was his own personal photographer, not mentioning that the photographer also has a dual-contract with the Russian state media.

Also, we wouldn't have known Kislyak was there if not for the photo. Not on the official guest roll. Nobody saw him enter or leave.

From what I understand, Kislyak is the one that people say is a spymaster--the guy that Flynn got in trouble for talking to. Photos coming out with Kislyak talking to Trump when Trump was trying to hide his presence by not putting him in the visitors logs...well, at very least it's not good timing for Trump.
