I like it too, but for an even better example of Trump-style combat by name-calling, I like 'corruptlican.'

Don't like thisw sort of thing really, but truth is a defense, as long as you make it clear it applies only to some Republicans.

Possibly a majority. If I found myself belonging to the current Republican party, I'd quit it.

I would never apply the term to 100% of the party. Don't know them all n don't care too. But it seems the majority of current leaders in charge now, put there by Trump all pretty much seen to fit the term.

Republicans like McCain Graham are old school and not to be confused with this new batch. It just seems everything that Trump touches ends up being used to make one of his guys rich. Not the country but his guys.


I feel that was his opening line to Kim Jong-un was Wanna make some money!!!

'The 500-Page Inspector General’s Report In 900 Words' 538blog
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features...-in-900-words/

Seems like a reasonable and level headed read of the IG's report.

NPR has a possibly less biased take: https://www.npr.org/2018/06/14/61238...-investigation and https://www.npr.org/2018/06/15/62013...hat-comes-next.

The 538 article's point regarding Clinton's vindication is a stretch considering the point begins: "The report all but says ..."

So will we ‘lock up’ Ivanka and Jared for violating government email policy?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/ampht...-email-policy/

While the Whell-like idiot Trumpkins were chanting “lock her up” over emails, the Trump family members were doing exactly the same thing Hillary did, even with absolutely full knowledge that it was illegal.

Hey Whell, don’t Jared and Ivanka deserve to be “locked up” for their crimes, too? Or are you just a fecking hypocrite?
