Today in Trump's 1st term as President

Doctor and former governor of Vermont says Trump is mentally ill.

This makes me curious about two things. My first question is what Dr. Dean's specialty was. The article just says he was a physician. To properly make this judgement, he would need to be a psychiatrist, wouldn't he? The closest I can find is a line in Wikipedia that says he was in a family practice with his wife as his partner. Without the proper training, he is no more qualified than I am to say someone is mentally ill (not that I haven't called people crazy, and in some I especially like the diagnosis of guano loco that I learned on this board).

The second, and much more important question, is when he (or the actual psychiatrist mentioned in the article, Dr. Lee) conducted his medical examination of the president. I could be wrong, not being medically trained, but it was my understanding that before any doctor could render a diagnosis, they must make an examination of the patient. This is based on many court trials I have observed or read about where the doctors testifying about the sanity of the defendant are always cross examined on the number of office visits and the length of those visits with the defendant.

All of which raises the question of whether or not the statements by the doctors constitutes malpractice and if they can be sued or complained on about it.

W. Samuel Patten, 47, pleaded guilty Friday to failing to register as a foreign lobbyist while working on behalf of a Ukrainian political party,with help from a Russian associate of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort. He also admitted in court Friday that he steered $50,000 from a Ukrainian politician to President Trump’s inaugural committee — the first public confirmation that illegal foreign money was used to help fund the January 2017 event.

This is President Obama’s former campaign manager David Plouffe. Think about the message here . . . “his kind”:



^ This is what is at stake. The left wants you to submit or die.

Woodward has a book out on Trump.

In the old days I thought he and his partner, rooted out a story anywhere they thought it might exist. Now I realize they try and root a story only if it’s the other side they think is doing something wrong.

Former U.S. Sen. Jon Kyl will be John McCain's successor in the U.S. Senate
https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/po ... 192049002/

Kyl is respected among seasoned Republicans and is leading President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, through the confirmation process. Last year, Kyl was the “sherpa” for Jeff Sessions’ contentious nomination to become attorney general.

"Sounds like" (which is meaningless these days) Kyl may be more friendly to the President that McCain. Of course, Kyl could easily decide his limelight act will be to channel the maverick and torpedo everything.

Its gotten this bad.

At Kavanaugh hearing Zina Bash (the attractive lady with black hair) appears to make White Power sign behind Kavanaugh.

I didn't know there was a white power symbol, its apparently the OK hand gesture.

Her husband defends her.

Other media outlets like WaPo say its nonsense.

But Time and CBS both ran the story.

So I can't use the OK hand gesture anymore without being racist?

Apparently its a 4 chan hoax.

Apparently she was born in Mexico to Holocaust survivors. So would that make her a Jewish Mexican? I don't think the white supremacist will let her in their gang.

All the left has is hate.

Sounds rather contrived. I believe this is just another attempt, by the MSM, to discredit Trump, and again, they are using "anonymous" sources. If there truly are those inside, who are working to thwart, the President, why are they still there? Why haven't they gone to work for someone they feel would be a better President, in two years? Also, if, as they claim, they want his administration to succeed, why talk to the press? What possible benefit, can be had?

Grassy knoll time: Trump. planted the source and the story, to get MSM running in circles again.

Possible. Lanny Davis and CNN were epically punked by Michael Cohen. He did not do that for his own amusement. There are some prosecutors in NY who hope they only get disbarred.

The NYT, in tatters, is now in shreds. It takes a few days, and you have to remember the details yourself, because the press gets really quiet when they realize they were punked.

I am not a political guy so I thought I would ask all of the experts here.

First question is what has happened to the investigation on collusion? It is like CNN, FOX, and all of the rest have just stopped talking about it.

Second question is if the collusion investigation is over why is there still a special counsel?

Sorry to move the talk away from Trump for a minute, but can I ask which one of you has the time machine? I am curious how a post made at 7:35 can quote a post to be made an hour later.

The site was down for a couple of hours. Perhaps why the discrepancy.

As far as Times article, author claims Trump likes dictators which I haven't seen to be true. Rougher on Russia than HRC with her button, killed Iran deal while our democratic nation friends looked at Iran as a source of profit. At least met with North Korea dictator and no missiles hitting Guam. Supports Israel while our "democratic" friends are supporting her enemies.

Who is the real enemy? Chuck Schumer and friends? Nancy Pelosi? Great war hero's like Sen Blumenthal (please it's sarcasm)? Name me one democrat that you would like to see as president. Name one that would restore hope for our country. I can't!

Trumps eventual legacy will probably be his court appointments. That's why there are so many democrats pulling off the shenanigans they do. I think every president has senior staff guiding them through some maybe not so good times. Look at Clinton, he had a lot of coverups going on as he dilly dallied with Monica and who knows how many others. All part of the game.
