Well, in 1579, John Stubbs was sentenced to having his right hand cut off with a cleaver. And all he’d done was publish a pamphlet criticizing the queen’s plan to marry! So these things happen.

Trump would have to perform the greatest of political miracles in that case. Bypassing the Supreme Court and repealing the First Amendment.

Every President in history has had to deal with a section of the press that has been hostile. It just goes with the job

I watched with a smile his latest Press Conference after the killing off the Leader off Isis
Reminded me off a 8 year old , all over the place , & barely a sentence that made any sense.
All self appreciating & absolute 1st Class BS.

His comment's over Obamas Administrations "taking out" Osama bin Laden ,just showed how much off a jealous & racist punt he really is !
A bloody disgrace to the office he hold's & hopefully he will be out off it ASAP :thumbsup:

I'm lost why you'd want Trump gone. What difference would it make to you? Even if he was gone you'd still be exporting sardines to the USA and we would be exporting the latest pap from Hollywood with Portuguese sub titles added.

So, now we have another delusional billionaire trying to buy the Presidency because he doesn't like the idea of having to pay some taxes.

Yay!

Mayor of New York on his resume though, which is a stronger qualification than some other candidates... I somehow doubt he's running because of Warren's tax plans.

He’s thinking of running because he assumes - quite correctly - that none of the current crop of Democrats have a snowball’s chance in hell of beating Trump in 2020. Whether he’s got the chops remains to be seen but if he does run then at least it’ll put the idea of resurrecting Hillary firmly to bed.

I suspect the only person interested in "resurrecting Hillary" is herself.

She’s a legend in her own mind.
