OT: American Politics

He cannot do it, its not legal.

Sounds like a dare.

 

[Wayward DP]

That's his con. Say it enough and it doesn't matter if it's true.

It's up to Americans to see through it...

yeah forgive me for not having much faith in the whole 'see through it' part anymore.

OANN asks Kayleigh McEnany if President Trump has considered pardoning President Obama... She answers by putting up questions on the screen that she thinks reporters should be asking President Obama. Things have taken a turn.

 

[MapleLeafBlueJayBoy]

So their strategy is pretty clear and its the same as always. Blame it all on Obama.

Yeah, fair.

Although I still really think it's only 30ish percent.

The stupidity of this timeline appears to be accelerating.

It’s so horrifyingly childish; like the bad brother accusing the good one of wrongdoing so they both end up with the same punishment.

 

[Volcanologist]

this attempted smearing of Obama is so sad to watch.

[hockeylover]

Ohhh, timing makes a lot of sense.

yeah I would be 100% ok with letting them learn the hard way, but for the fact that their stupidity endangers other people as well

Apparently negotiations with creditors “broke down”, so this looks like someone will take a haircut. I don’t know the debt structure, how much is senior, how much is subordinate and how it relates to equity... but it looks a little untidy.
