The specificity of the questions and the quasi smile on her face make me feel like she knew that this was coming.
You left out Dubya and Nixon. Maybe they’re not just coincidences, and there will be others in the future, too. Maybe there’s something about the mindset that makes one loyal to a party rather than the country that causes those results?
But those aren’t deal-breakers for them, are they?
1929 - Hoover ®
+45
1974 - Nixon ®
+45
2019 - Trump ®
+45
2064 - :eek:
Many Trump voters, I am sure, do not like torture, kidnapping, and so on. But voting for a guy who does those things is, in fact, support for them.
Maybe the end of the 45-year curse ends with our 45th president. Has anyone checked Nostradamus for the number 45 lately?
I believe that was Michael Jordan’s baseball number, but I’m not seeing an immediate connection.
I was really wondering the same thing. That line of questioning did seem to be an awfully lucky coincidence given the news that came out a shortly after it. I don’t have the time or ambition to delve into it, but I wonder if Klobuchar has some connection to the writers of the article, and maybe they gave her a little heads up. Or, possibly she heard something from the same sources Buzzfeed used. “Hey, Senator, you didn’t hear this from me, but Buzzfeed is going to drop one helluva story tomorrow…”
Clearly you haven’t met some of the guys I work with.
Or the people in certain branches of my family tree.
Wonder if Trump is wishing he’d just let Pelosi, et al, jet off to Europe.
Right, he could have cancelled their trip *back *instead.
The usual suspects have not chimed in to refute the latest bombshell from Buzzfeed. When they do, will it be:
-
Fake News! Never happened! Deep state making it up! Witch hunt!
-
No big deal. Nothingburder. Nobody cares outside of DC
-
Both sides do it. Look at these examples. CLINTON LIED! HILLARY!
-
Cohen is a liar! He lies! Can’t believe Cohen! (the Giuliani defense)
-
Other?
As I read the list, I was thinking Giuliani put out number two.
Yes.
Well, Individual-1 has had a go at covering (4) this morning, and has submitted candidates for (5) and (6):
-
Southern border crisis! Crime! Terrorists! Caravan!
-
(Random, contextless sloganeering) “America First! Make America Great Again!”
The Cohen excuse seems the front-runner among the apologia today, conveniently leaving out that Cohen wasn’t the source of the Buzzfeed report.

Reports saying a rooster started crowing after the third refusal are still unconfirmed.
I just called Alexander. The lady answering the phone sounded very tired. I’d call Blackburn, but what the point?
