We seem to have national security agencies in shock and left out in the cold. There is a real threat internally and it sits in the Oval office. And it is not to make a profit for their buddies, it is to destabilize the entire country.
I cringe at thinking who this Clusterfuck will pick to sit on the SCOTUS.

I guess what I mean is the gravity of the situation is far worse. If that is possible. Like you said, it will be worse.

(40 posts)You really think Bush/Cheney, or their sponsors, weren't expecting this? or planning for it?

(65,616 posts)It kinda puts the 8 years Congress decided to block Obama on everything into perspective now. Keep him from focusing too much on PNAC and pick up where they left off.
Just look at how fast GOP Congress is moving now! Such vile scum. The GOP will steamroller the nation.

(58,706 posts)about the sequence you posted. It definitely is about profit for themselves and their buddies. It's just that they want to destabilize the country to make easier for them.
We're being disaster capitalism-ed, from within.

(65,616 posts)What Trump is doing is helping weaken our ties with our traditional allies. I can't say the BFEE did not do the same thing, who knows they have just as many international ties as Trump.

(776 posts)Even former Vice President Dick Cheney has denounced Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's plan to ban Muslim immigration in America.
Cheney, a decisive conservative himself, said Monday on The Hugh Hewitt Show that the ban "goes against everything we stand for and believe in."
"I think this whole notion that somehow we can just say no more Muslims, just ban a whole religion, goes against everything we stand for and believe in. I mean, religious freedom has been a very important part of our history and where we came from," Cheney said on a Monday appearance on the radio show. "A lot of people, my ancestors got here, because they were Puritans."
Cheney called Trump's plan a "mistaken notion" and said to solve refugee and immigration problems, the U.S. must examine why they need to leave their countries in the first place.
But they won't be around for long
