What in the Wide Wide World of Sports is agoin' on here???

Well Trump just came out and said he strongly opposes this move...as much as it pains me to say this, I agree with him.

 

So basically, another radioactive hyperbole Kotite thread?

I guess you can't read then. The title of the thread and the first couple posts reference the "swamp" which is a direct reference to PE Trump.


I don't expect you to understand that. You don't seem to follow logic all that well.

Very disingenuous of you. It's very hard to take anything you say seriously. It's kind a like speaking to the town buffoon.


Thankfully Mr. Trump is on the right side if he sticks to what he tweet.

House Republicans drop ethics office overhaul after Trump criticism

Not necessarily...Shows the GOP are alligators that enjoy their swamp environment

Solid move Donald! Very wise.

lol... When Donald Trump thinks an action is a bad look - about ethics - you know you've gone too far.

Won't argue that. GOP and Democrat congressfolk are mostly all swamp monsters.

Nothing hyperbolic about what these people tried to push through. It's rather telling that so few found the need to express outrage at what was a truly shady tactic until Trump spoke up. It doesn't matter if it's the left or the right, if something wholly unethical is being done, you should not hesitate to call it what it is. Instead I got mental gymnastics until Trump entered the fray. It's as if some of you are incapable of being objective and informed.

Truly a bipartisan trait.

Now Trump is against this have all you Trumpettes flip flopped?

No, its a kangaroo court used to punish political opponents. I oppose it for the same reasons I oppose Title I courts on college campuses, the protections afforded the accused by our Constitution (presumption of innocence, trial by jury of peers, right to face the accuser, in some cases the right to representation) are bypassed and we get an Inquisition instead of an investigation. Not that we don't need ethical oversight, I'm all for that, but this particular structure is solidly un-American.

Absolutely trump is populist 100% I thought everyone knew that?

Seriously, though, to make shooting yourself in the foot the very first item of business is pretty mind boggling.
