Which is why I started it withIt's cut and paste, I don't think One Love was trying to pretend otherwise:
She was defending Trump’s ‘‘work ethic’ because she had specifically been asked about the Axios Report (which I quoted above) which looked at how Trump spent his days in the WH (also quoted above).Sarah Sanders is a Republican! She's hardly going to slag him off is she.
And why was she having to defend his work ethic in the first place? Obviously because people had noticed he wasn't working much.
Well we can all agree that she is a stand up trustworthy woman, and if she says Trump works hard, that's good enough for me.She was defending Trump’s ‘‘work ethic’ because she had specifically been asked about the Axios Report (which I quoted above) which looked at how Trump spent his days in the WH (also quoted above).
It was still a great pieceWhich is why I started it with

Sorry thought that was obvious
Sarcasm? I honestly find it difficult to tell I’m afraid! - I wasn’t defending Saunders in any way.Well we can all agree that she is a stand up trustworthy woman, and if she says Trump works hard, that's good enough for me.
Neither was @Triggaaar . You have misunderstood. He was being facetious. All is goodIt was still a great piece

Thanks - I thought he was but as I said, I find sarcasm hard to translate - I just wasn’t sure if my post about Saunders defending Trump had been misunderstood as me defending her because I thought the sarcasm was directed at me rather than laughing with me - the trials and tribulations of a neurodivergent brain !Neither was @Triggaaar .

Me too (neurodivergent). Misunderstandings are a daily occurrence. Luckily on an anonymous forum one can assume the best without fear of actual jeopardy if you have misunderstood and reacted. One can apologise (also easy on an anonymous forum) and move on, whistling surreptitiously and hoping nobody has noticed. Ahem.Thanks - I thought he was but as I said, I find sarcasm hard to translate - I just wasn’t sure if my post about Saunders defending Trump had been misunderstood as me defending her because I thought the sarcasm was directed at me rather than laughing with me - the trials and tribulations of a neurodivergent brain !
Yep those 6 corporate bankruptcies don't happen on their own.
Sorry to be a little pedantic but you're continually misspelling Sanders. That's very Trumpist (see "stollen")Thanks - I thought he was but as I said, I find sarcasm hard to translate - I just wasn’t sure if my post about Saunders defending Trump had been misunderstood as me defending her because I thought the sarcasm was directed at me rather than laughing with me - the trials and tribulations of a neurodivergent brain !
First AC or Tony Blairs spin doctor, you don't get to change definitions just to suit your political agenda. I looked it up and its mercifully short(Below).Great post and brilliant narrative of the definition of populism described by Alastair Campbell recently.
1. Populism seeks to exploit problems rather than solving them.
2. Populism seeks to divide the population rather than unite it.
Both, of course, are highly effective distraction techniques for those who only seek money, power and influence through politics rather than a greater good for their electorate and Country.
Mr Trump and Mr Johnson personify this particular definition. And when they are called out, we’re reminded that politicians are all the same so you may as well vote for one with a bit of personality.
That’s ok - at least I can spell ‘Buonanotte’ which seems to be a stumbling block for 50% of NSC postersSorry to be a little pedantic but you're continually misspelling Sanders. That's very Trumpist (see "stollen")
I thought ‘popularism’ in politics a range of policies that embrace the idea that the ‘elite’ is set against the masses/the ‘people’ - it doesn’t presume corruption of the elitePopulism just means uniting the people against corruption... And irony alert, when you try to change the definition of words to suit your purpose thats corruption.
When was Trump in Fulton? I must have missed that - so many court cases and indictments over the years, it really has been impossible to keep up.Trump is trying to unite the people against the establishment, when he left Fulton Jail he drove through poor/black areas and was well received, that's one of the ways he reaches out to different groups.
Note the bond has been reduced, not the actual penalty. Just the amount he needs to put up prior to appeals being settled.I see Mr Trump has been given a ten day extension to pay a massively reduced bond of $175 million for the appeal on his fraud case (it was $464 million). Another example of how unfairly he is being treated.
Don't like piling on you but this is one of the main things I just don't understand in beliefs about Trump. How is this bloke anti establishment or anti The Man or whatever you'd like to call it? It's like that thing about voting for Bush Jnr because he seemed to be "the sort of bloke you could have a pint with". Is that really your overriding reason for voting for them? Don't get it.Trump is trying to unite the people against the establishment, when he left Fulton Jail he drove through poor/black areas and was well received, that's one of the ways he reaches out to different groups. He us not playing the divide and rule tactic of "White men evil".
As for the article you quoted "Sample of one" and Hmmmmmmmmm.
Trump is trying to unite the people against the establishment
The irony being that both Bush Jr and Trump are teetotal.Don't like piling on you but this is one of the main things I just don't understand in beliefs about Trump.

And, as I understand it, paying a bond means you guarantee to pay the whole fine if the appeal doesn't go your way. If his word means anything that is.Note the bond has been reduced, not the actual penalty. Just the amount he needs to put up prior to appeals being settled.
Haven't yet seen the logic that led the judges to decide this.
