[Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

[Curious Orange]

Out of interest, could you explain the specific reason why Michael Cohen was convicted of perjury, and why he says he did it?

As @lasvegan didn't reply to this particular question, I will. Cohen was convicted of lying to Congress when he told them that the deal to build Trump Tower Moscow ended in January 2016, when actually it ended in June 2016. He did this in order to be 'consistent with Trump's "repeated disavowals of commercial and political ties between himself and Russia" and out of loyalty to Trump.'

Pjmedia - a right wing ( their words not mine), subscription based platform. Hardly a valid source of news. Subscription based as no one will destroy their brand by advertising with them.
Babylonbee which is another of your sources describes itself as Conservative, Christian satirical website.
Either you are a WUM or just a weapons grade idiot, normally I always go with the former at times like this as no one can be that stupid ….but with you Im not so sure.

Is a left wing site, that everyone on this thread uses as their source of information, an equally invalid source of news? I post right opinions because I’m not left wing. Is that not reasonable you you?

The Babylon Bee (“Fake News You Can Trust”) is satire, go ahead and read The Onion if you so wish.

I’d rather be a weapons grade idiot than a weapons grade twat. Lighten up…

Your point about biased news sources is valid but the personal barbs are a bit harsh aren’t they? Afaik @lasvegan hasn’t attacked any of us personally for expressing left wing views or citing left wing sources.

I try not to, people disagree, I’m perfectly okay with that. Honest debate is a good thing…

You're both.

Have you got bored counting to 500,000 or being bizarre?

The first thing Trump did when he was elected in 2016 was to sack all the experts and handed out key WH positions to members of his family (and Sreve Bannon!)

Drinking bleach, predicting hurricanes with sharpie science - It was literally a Presidency of painting by numbers by a colour blind narcissist!

Exactly, the last thing Trump wants is to be surrounded by is experts - he wants to plough his own ditch whenever he wants

Exactly. If he listened to experts, he'd plough his own furrow and use a digger for his ditch.

Thanks...I couldn't remember the word 'furrow' (getting old), then hoped ditch would be suitable for Trump

I think I may have hit a nerve. My post has not been wasted.
You can be as right wing as you want, just try and use a source that hasn’t had its brain fried.

Racial stereotyping is unnerving. https://babylonbee.com/news/trump-p...osition-running-white-house-convenience-store

I posted that normally I assume that the OP is a wind up merchant , however I wasn’t convinced. The fact that he assumed the title of weapons grade idiot is down to him not me.
Fox News is fine but don’t quote from right wing subscription websites most likely frequented by racist, white supremicists and there ilk.

Never, does that bother you?

You have to wonder why it bothers you if it does.

Nah, you go ahead mate - it just looks weird that you spend most of your time on NSC counting to 500,000, talking to yourself at length on your own thread and then jumping into threads to make random personal barbs at people you haven’t even been engaging with is all.

I thought I was the resident ‘Care in the Community’ poster child on NSC but you seem to be challenging me for that enviable position

It’s a little odd that’s all.

There's always room for more.

You wanted to hit a nerve? That’s okay, I have a thick skin…

I think we can one day be friends….

When you have established yourself as an interesting poster I’ll take a little more notice of what you have to say.

Nice to see Trump getting his just desserts in court today, its only $9,000 but, could escalate if he can't keep his mouth shut. Ultimately, he could be jailed for contempt of court.
