That's like fake Mel Gibson Scotsmen making a No True Scotsman argument against a real Scotsman.

I like it, but the fake Scotsmen are never going to figure this out.

Yes, it is kinda ironic that the Republican party has sacrificed every principal on which it was founded in order to serve the venal interests of a man who isn't even a Republican.

Quote14. That the Republican party is opposed to any change in our naturalization laws or any state legislation by which the rights of citizens hitherto accorded to immigrants from foreign lands shall be abridged or impaired; and in favor of giving a full and efficient protection to the rights of all classes of citizens, whether native or naturalized, both at home and abroad.

I guess we have to wait 5 years for president pence.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

or 10 - and the Trump can run again.  Putin told him how to do it.

Did you see the State of the Union Address? The President does these weird little things when he talks like he has had a stroke. I don't know if he can keep going much longer than 5 years. Putin is five years younger and not obese.

Though Russians on the internet keep telling me this is a fake Putin and real one was replaced by a double at some point  :lol: :tinfoil:

I just heard the claim on the 538 podcast (via youtube) that Romney is the first senator in US history to vote to convict a president of his own party.

Wow. That is quite an honor Mitt. Good for you.

Well, it's not like there have been tons of opportunities!

It is interesting to me that Romney voted for removal for abuse of power, but rejected the idea that the President's power should be checked by a Congress able to investigate possible presidential wrongdoing.

Yea, I thought that was odd too.
