The Politics Thread

Trump has really ‘out-Trumped’ himself with his choice of Temporary AG!
This is not some historic college Tweet or similar - not that that would be any more acceptable - but In 2014, Whitaker was running for the Republican Senate nomination in Iowa and participated in a forum hosted by the religious-right group The Family Leader.

Quote: ‘Judges without a New Testament biblical view of justice, should not serve on the federal bench’ and he suggested that he would block the appointment of non-Christian judges if given the chance.........

This man is not fit for public office - PERIOD!

As I've often said, "any deal is a bad deal".

Just get the fek out of it and if there are any pieces to pick up, pick them up. Any other course of action is a botch job.

 

"(I)n politics you have to be true to the public and also true to yourself." - compulsive liar Esther McVey, obvious forgetting how just last week she lied to the public when she told parliament how numerous mental health charities she'd never bothered to speak to supported her Universal Credit reforms

 

There goes my bloody pension. Thank you May.Kindly leave the frigging stage!

 

Rough translation: he tried to put together a leadership bid, and just like two years ago couldn't find a single person willing to back him
