It's gonna be an interesting 8 years What> No one questioning his 8 yr comment? Evidently everyone realizes the jig is up and it is a forgone conclusion? Fake news

I have a theory about the Mooch. I don't think he likes Trump, or believes in Trump's agenda. He went from a minor contributor on Fox news to a household name just by getting the title and making a few vile comments. If he lasts 3 months, he will make a fortune doing a tell-all, and likely get his own show on Fox. He can bank this forever. He had money before - now he has fame, which he will use to get more money.

They are simple four or six impossibly vague to answer correctly questions except for who did you vote for or are you a democrat or Republican The view of responses always has Hillary at like 80% and Trump at 15 to 18% Seems either democrats take the polls or everyone still fails to admit they voted Republican Dems are going to have more spasms in 2018 off yr election results.

If you followed CNBC and Fox Business over the years, you would be more familiar with him. Once he put Skybridge Capital together he was not as visible on camera as before.

He was anti-Trump during the primaries. He said some brutal things. Not sure when he had to jump on board to be a "very early" backer, but I'm not convinced he fits the criteria.

There are many errors associated with drawing inferential conclusions from a sample of convenience vs a randomly sampled scientifically conducted survey.

I don't think Pence likes Trump either. He made a deal with the devil. Trump gets the evangelical vote, Pence gets a shot at the WH and a few key policies. He got a SCOTUS and the military/trans thing may be a payment to Pence and co.

And in other White House news, it looks like the Mooch's wife is filing for divorce: Anthony Scaramucci’s Wife Deidre Ball Reportedly Files For DivorceA week after Anthony Scaramucci joined the White House as communications director, his wife, Deidre Ball, has reportedly filed for divorce. Scaramucci’s friends claimed Ball was not happy with him for joining the White House and his “naked political ambition,” reports said. Complete article here: Anthony Scaramucci’s Wife Deidre Ball Reportedly Files For DivorceAnthony Scaramucci once again appeared to comment Saturday morning on a report that his wife, Deidre Ball, has filed for divorce, taking aim at the media. "Family does not need to be drawn into this. Soon we will learn who in the media has class and who doesn't. No further comments on this," the new White House communications director tweeted. www.washingtonexaminer.com/anthony-scaramucci-after-divorce-news-soon-we-will-learn-who-in-the-media-has-class-and-who-doesnt/article/2630098 Why yes! The Mooch is the very epitome of class!

I can't laugh. It would be funny in a parallel universe, on the Simpsons show or on SNL.
And we are paying for all this.
When did we fall this low?
I miss George Bush. I would take him back in a heartbeat. He seems so efficient and intelligent compared to what we have today. And to think when he was president I thought he was the worst ever.

To be fair, Bush was never quite that bad. The worst in three generations? Sure. But yes, Trump is on pace to be the worst ever. In fact, he's almost racing to become the worst ever. The man literally does nothing well within the confines of the job description. It is bad enough that he is quickly becoming a joke. Worse that he is making our country one.

Are you sure? Maybe for YOU, it did, but others might be confused by a single word pulled completely and utterly out of context.

Trump is on track to make Obama look good... and that's a high hurdle to surpass.

Trump is making W look better, but other than that Trump just keeps lowering the bar and finding new ways to go low.

"Grab em by the pu$$y" would make Jack the Ripper look good.
He'll never be half the president (or half the man) as President Obama

Given that W wasn't quite as bad as Obama (but was still bad)... I figured that "making W look better" went without saying.

I would have mislead you and others if I had included whatever you typed after that word. And that single word was never meant to stand alone. That's why it was part of a paragraph. (for the record though, you just confirmed that you took it out of context, and then posted it out of context, deliberately and intentionally)

He got a SCOTUS and the military/trans thing may be a payment to Pence and co. I think Pence solidified the Evangelical vote that was on the fence for Trump. Trump promised the SC nominee would be a conservative (we shall see if he is, as we all know how it sometimes looks one way and goes the other) and Trump is as likely to have nominated a Conservative to piss off the liberals as much as to fulfill a promise. The trans tweet i am still trying to sort out......... For a guy that does not drink, he sometimes acts as if he woke up on a bender.........

Of course it was. I find it a cheaper way to get votes than another socialist program to buy them. Think Obamacare. what precisely is socialist about throwing 20M people into PRIVATE insurance? That's my point. It isn't.

I just listened to his speech on July 28, 2017. He recounted his electoral vote win, and said it was the biggest electoral college win since Reagan. a) You won. We know that. b) 2016 Trump 304 2012 Obama 332 2008 Obama 365 2004 Bush 286 2000 Bush 271 1996 Clinton 379 1992 Clinton 370 1988 Bush 426 1984 Reagan 525 1980 Reagan 489 Seriously dude - what world do you live in. Everyone got more electoral votes than you, except W. But what he says goes on the record. There's also that bit about "saying something 3 times makes it true"... going forward someone will point to something in one of Trump's speeches and use it as proof that it's TRUE.
I'm assuming there will be no Trump Presidential Library... which may be for the best.

Of course, I didn't take into account the 62.5 million illegal voters. All of whom voted D. Without them, Trump would have gotten 538 electoral votes.

There's already a Trump Library of Tweets.
