  • That video is the most public and obvious proof that Trump's entire presidency is all about self-enrichment. It's like a cross between a movie trailer and a time-share pitch.

    He basically views North Korea as an investment opportunity. Hey, forget their massive, ongoing human rights violations -- look at those beaches!

      Michael Cohen's lawyers, who were getting paid by Trump, are quitting and running away so it appears Cohen either has made a deal to flip or he is making a deal to flip. Then the dirty laundry all gets to see the light of day.

      Break out your popcorn, boys, and don't forget extra butter but leave the salt off as the tears of the Trumpanzees promise to be very salty indeed.

        The lawyers (McDermott, Will & Emery) will stay with Cohen until the review of documents is complete (deadline this Friday). The reason they are leaving is reported as "an issue with payment of legal bills." Which is both ironic and hilarious.

        If they are supposed to get paid by Trump, it is no surprise that they leave becuase of "an issue with payment of legal bills." ... after all Trump is infamous for his payment behavior ... even among attorneys

      • Dinner - What do you think Cohen knows? It would be speculation obviously, but I'm curious.

          Trump has called De Niro "A very low IQ individual".

          I think you're right.

            What's kinda funny is that De Niro played a Trumpish politician in Machete.
            Now here's a video from the 2016 elec.. I mean the 2010 cinematic masterpiece Machete.

              • The US is well past civil discourse. De Niro is a sympton not the cause.

                Yes, Trump was elected President. He has also brought the office into disrepute. Worse, his party has been cheer leading the entire damn spectacle.

                  I agree.
                  Before Trump became president I though that the republican senators had at least a shred of honour and independent thinking in them.
                  But considering how much they turned into will-less cheer-leaders for Trump, in the last 1.5 years, I guess, I expected too much of them
                  (with exceptions, of course, like McCain, who gets ridiculed in internal WH meetings, because he is one of the last GOP senators with a shred of independent thinking remaining)

                    And this is Trumps response to Robert de Niro:
                    Robert De Niro, a very Low IQ individual, has received too many shots to the head by real boxers in movies. I watched him last night and truly believe he may be “punch-drunk.” I guess he doesn’t...
                    ...realize the economy is the best it’s ever been with employment being at an all time high, and many companies pouring back into our country. Wake up Punchy!



                    Honestly ... Trump accusing someone of a low IQ is like throwing stones in a glasshouse

                    • In my opinion trump is the result of the cracks in globilization. There are many such examples worldwide, plus I'm living in one. de niro, what has he done besides deer hunter godfather and analyze it? just trying to pay off debt. let's not get into who is smarter. there are many scales. we would not arrive at a common least denominator I'm pretty sure that all those frecks in prime time TV trying to tear a new one at trump, achieve the exact opposite result. the old status quo kind of grumbles
