it was pretty tasteless and disrespectful to make such a spectacle of this, the WH is trying hard to penetrate a pretty thick wall of media bias to get their message out, i trust they're keeping us in the loop with official statements and the like. they've got to do something to try and tamp this down, they can't even have a briefing without it being mocked in some way.Anonymous A (OP) replied with this 9 years ago, 27 minutes later, 30 minutes after the original post[^] [v] #793,504

While at the same time the government shows signs of hiding something from the general populace that is beyond the realm of mere conspiracy theories.

@previous (A)look, the witch hunt is just obstructing any kind of agenda from being advanced, like comey said, the president isn't even under investigation. what are they even investigating? where's the proof? it's a fishing expedition blown out of proportion by a lot of biased misinformation in the news. us liberals would be wise to keep an open mind through all this and start recognizing the good things that are coming out of this administration instead of mocking everything.
if you can't support the man, you should at least support the office of the president.

What good actually came out of the administration?
It seems like all but the evangelical special interest groups are mad.
Trump is now being persecuted for the obstruction of justice.

oh, paris accords, keystone pipeline, the new healthcare act is going to be great, and honestly i'm just giddy over the prospects for his new tax plan. the estate tax is just an unnecessary burden that stifles potential growth. they just need to hurry up with their tax plan, so it'll be nice when all this healthcare obsession and russia hysteria come to an end so the WH can advance the damn agenda.

what? no. look, you know i've never been a fan of Trump, he's too mired in personal scandal to be effective, but that doesn't mean they haven't stumbled across some really good ideas, and i just think people should acknowledge that and give them a chance instead of immediately mocking everything in the biased news.

@previous (J)look, the environment has been fine on its own for thousands of years. it doesn't need our help now all of the sudden. the nancy pelosi corporate democrats have a pretty vested interest in restricting energy production because globalization makes them way more money and global warming plays right into their hands. Trump was right to pull us out of the binding paris agreement that give other countries free rides and waivers for a decade when WE have to cut emissions drastically and immediately. we need to invest heavily in all kinds of energy, not just intermittent wind and solar power, but also in clean coal and shale oil fields. it's how we remain competitive in the 21st century, and guarantee jobs for all americans.
edit: this really shouldn't even be a partisan issue, robust energy production is in the interest of everyone. as a liberal democrat i understand this, but most liberals don't get it. and it's killing the democrat party, tbh. real liberals need to step up and take the party back from the pelosi corporate clinton democrats. podesta.

it won't matter who gains prominence in the Democratic Party, for whoever it may be is not a Republican. Do you think that the Republican-party-member-owned-and-operated media outlets are going to turn around and tell their audience, hey, this new Democrat is pretty good and we quit our Republican membership now.

There's no point to press briefings anymore. If the president wants to say something he can just tweet it.
