Care to share why you hate Elizabeth and Beto?

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
Sure...here are some reasons (not all)
Warren has weird mannerisms, and refuses to share how she's actually going to fund all her pipedream ideas. Way too far left. Seems to think because she has a Republican brother that means she can relate to all republicans and work across party lines (how many times has she told that story!?!?!).
Beto is annoying, randomly speaks in Spanish to show how cultured he is (as an Irish American) even though if there are people watching who speak that languajge they likely already speak English because the rest of the debates are 99% in English, has ridiculous gun reform ideas that will never get done but pose a risk to ruining the things that are so close to getting done that 85% of the country wants done...Beto is by far my least favorite Dem. He doesn't seem genuine to me and he's in way over his head.
Tl;dr version: when both talk I want to slam my head on the ground, and both are way too far left.

Thank you for your response. Hate is a strong word but perhaps you feel strongly enough about Warren and O'Rourke to hate them.
Tl;dr version response - Beto and Liz are "way too far left" but Bernie isn't?
When Bernie talks I don't want to slam my head on the ground but to me he's extremely difficult to listen to.

I don't hate them in that sense, because yes that's a strong word. Just hate them as presidential candidates.Paul1 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 19, 2019 8:17 am Thank you for your response. Hate is a strong word but perhaps you feel strongly enough about Warren and O'Rourke to hate them.

Bernie is equally as far left, but i don't dislike him nearly as much. Don't agree with many of his ideas, but I think he's genuine. I'd probably rank him middle of the pack of the Dems.

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
Watching Mulvaney go on camera Thursday and spend 39 minutes co-signing Trump's impeachment confession was some of the best political theater I've ever seen. You couldn't believe what you were watching, then 5 hours later Mulvaney tried to repair the damage, only to make himself and Trump look worse. This morning, he's trying to do more damage control, but it doesn't appear to be going all that well:

Justice Department Distances Itself From Giuliani
The Justice Department distanced itself on Sunday from Rudolph W. Giuliani, President Trump’s personal lawyer, declaring that department officials would not have met with Mr. Giuliani to discuss one of his clients had they known that federal prosecutors in New York were investigating two of his associates.
...The Justice Department’s public statement on Sunday illustrates the unusual and broad set of roles that the president’s personal lawyer has played in the scandal that has engulfed the White House and imperiled Mr. Trump’s presidency.
Even as Mr. Giuliani ran a shadow foreign policy campaign to pressure Ukraine to investigate the president’s political enemies — which is now at the heart of an impeachment inquiry against Mr. Trump — he and his business associates were under criminal investigation for unlawfully wielding political influence. And while all of this was happening, Mr. Giuliani still served as a lawyer to clients with cases to plead before the Justice Department.
In distancing itself from Mr. Giuliani and trying to draw bright lines around how the Justice Department will and will not engage with him, the department has also undercut the perception that Mr. Giuliani can influence some of Washington’s most important lawyers and decision makers. That could make it harder for Mr. Giuliani to represent clients who are under Justice Department scrutiny in the future.
“This is an incredibly unusual statement from the Justice Department, which does not comment on ongoing investigations or even acknowledge them, and it’s the kind of statement that would give clients pause about who is representing them,” said Joyce Vance, a former federal prosecutor.

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
So weird. You complain when he says he's going to do it. Then call him a pussy for reversing course, even though we all know that's what he should have done (well, he shouldn't have thrown the idea out there it in the first place, but he did, so....).
To be clear: I do think Trump is a pussy, but stopping a bad idea before it goes too far isn't being a pussy.
This type of stuff is why I don't always think the outrage is genuine. You're going to hate whatever he does, even when he's doing the right thing (which is rare).

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
You know what's really "so weird". Donald Trump.
Of course Trump is a pussy. He's a pussy because he boasts about something and then when he gets called out on it he either accuses the media of lying, saying he never said what he said, or insults people.
You know what he said Illini?
"I thought I was doing something very good for our Country by using Trump National Doral, in Miami, for hosting the G-7 Leaders. But, as usual, the Hostile Media & their Democrat Partners went CRAZY!" "Therefore, based on both Media & Democrat Crazed and Irrational Hostility, we will no longer consider Trump National Doral, Miami, as the Host Site for the G-7 in 2020".
That's being a pussy. HE CAVED IN to those he feels he has power over.
He's the guy who is a self proclaimed "stable genius" and says this about himself, “Nobody’s ever been more successful than me", “Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest — and you all know it", and “I’m speaking with myself, No. 1, because I have a very good brain and I’ve said a lot of things. … My primary consultant is myself.”
Trust me Illini, the "outrage is genuine". I do hate a lot of what he says and does but I don't hate "whatever he does". I don't hate when he does the right thing. I hate that he does the right thing AFTER he does the wrong thing first - because he's a clueless fuck who either doesn't listen to his advisors or his advisors are as clueless as he is and he still listens to them. I hate that he insults and ridicules anyone and everyone who doesn't agree with him.

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
This is unbelievable, except sadly, not.
Here's one of the two Giuliani bffs arrested at the airport the day before he was supposed to testify before congress, while trying to leave the country with a one-way ticket, who our President, Donald Trump, says he doesn't know:

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
I dont think Trump was being a pussy. I think he did this deliberately to add yet another example of hysterical. Dems and hysterical media. His one continuous trait is that he takes every opportunity to paint something as an example of those two things. He even creates scenarios solely for this purposes. This is just another example and everyone involved played their part well.Paul1 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 21, 2019 6:51 am You know what's really "so weird". Donald Trump.

Re: Where TF is the Impeachment Inquiry Thread?
He left himself plenty of wiggle room to ignore more obvious evidence of what Trump has done. He wont be truthful until Trump is gone or until he too announces his resignation from Congress.
