Sounds like we need to keep electing more people without political experience.

We’d be better off electing an average joe off the street over any career swamp rat politician no mater how suave and polished they can seem.

Sounds like Mr Smith Goes to Washington had it right. Lol

I've been saying that for years.

Most people off the street are not corrupt and will look after US citizens. Unlike politicians. Especially life time politicians.

If you wanna drain the swamp you hire people not connected to the swamp.

Reminds me of Douglas Adams' Hitchiker's Guide.

"The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."

And I totally get by that same logic this is knocking Trump (whom I think is a great president). I still think it's funny and largely true of politicians.

I think a person of average intelligence could unravel all (((their))) bullshit if he didn’t have to worry about (((them))) killing him and his family.

They’re just thugs with a precious racket.

And this is why they want to invade the average citizen's privacy more and more. They need dirt on people they can use if they ever come up in the political sphere unexpectedly.

Hey sounds like this other guy we know. Heard he was tv star before he became president. Reagan was okay too.

I noticed this also. Zero mention of Biden, which was the subject of the phone call trump was impeached/acquitted over

What's become clear to me is that Ukraine is a lot more corrupt than I realized. I think they manufacture stories to please politicians in power in the US to try and maintain our support in case Russia invades.

They helped manufacture a bunch of BS when they thought Hillary was going to win, and now they are betting on Trump.

I'm just going to look at any story coming from Ukraine with a hard skeptical eye until further notice

Ukraine was one of the top international money laundering countries on earth. Biden, Romney, pelosi and Kerry ALL had kids working as ceos for Ukrainian companies. I’m sure it’s all above board tho.

Ukrainian corruption is a surprise to you? Russia took over, many took money to help. They have never been not corrupt.

They staged this to protect NABU, the corrupt and fake anti corruption bureau founded by Soros and the FBI. The goal here is to pretend that only one guy at the Burisma company was bad, he tried to bribe NABU, and the "good" NABU stopped him. IT''S ALL FAKE. Burisma is entirely corrupt because the state department worked directly with its owner, a mafia thug who used a chainsaw on his competitors (in natural resources and gas). The State department with the IMF used Burisma to take over the natural gas of Ukraine and to force the country, without a referendum, into the EU (that part failed in 2013).

Very generous of Bloomberg to cover this actual news for us.

Notice the word soup. The headline sounds bad for Trump if you're a low-information Karen.

2
spezisthedevil 2 points ago +2 / -0

No doubt. I read the headline from the point of view of someone who knows that it was the sham-peachment. They did add "trial" so some of the slightly more intelligent sheep might possibly remember he wasn't convicted, but that won't matter because Orange Man still bad.

NYT ran a piece claiming without a shred of evidence that this has nothing to do with Hunter Biden. Could they be any more transparent?

This isn't new news to those of us who have been reading John Solomon or listening to Bongino. Prosecutions need to start yesterday.
