'He earned his spurs from a doctor': James Mattis mocks Trump
Ex-defence secretary responds to US president calling him ‘the world’s most overrated general’

The former US defence secretary James Mattis has laughed off an insult hurled at him by Donald Trump.

Speaking at a New York charity event on Thursday, the day after the US president demeaned him as “the world’s most overrated general”, Mattis joked that he took it as a compliment.

“I’m not just an overrated general. I’m the greatest, the world’s most overrated,” he told diners at the annual Alfred E Smith Memorial Foundation dinner.

“I’m honoured to be considered that by Donald Trump because he also called Meryl Streep an overrated actress,” he said. “So I guess I’m the Meryl Streep of generals, and frankly that sounds pretty good to me.”

You have to wonder the madness that's happening behind the scenes guess we will find out after Trump moves on I recon there could be 40 to 50 books on how the insanity of the whole administration the Emperor can only walk around with no clothes for so long.

I still think Trump will get re-elected and wont be bothered by the impeachment stuff but will set him up for problems in the next term IMHO.

We all know the story by now. In 2005, Donald Trump was caught on tape bragging that his fame allowed him to sexually assault women. In 2016, as he was running for president, that recording, the so-called Access Hollywood tape, was made public, resulting in a stream of women coming forward and alleging that Trump had groped or otherwise sexually assaulted them. He was elected anyway; the women’s stories didn’t seem to matter. But they should.

Well that gives you guys another four years, of being able to naysay and another four years we have to listen to it.
 
Latest testimony from Ambassador Bill Taylor is very specific about how the Trump administration demanded that the Ukrainian Government publicly announce an investigation into Joe Biden son's before approving military support.

The acting US ambassador to Kyiv has provided congressional committees conducting impeachment hearings a detailed account of how Donald Trump repeatedly sought to make a summit meeting and military aid to Ukraine conditional on its government launching investigations into the president’s political opponents.

Bill Taylor’s testimony was the latest in a series of depositions by serving and former administration officials, as part of the impeachment inquiry, about Trump’s use of the presidency to put pressure on the Ukrainian government to procure compromising information on his political rivals. And it was the most detailed and damning to date.

Taylor, who took over as acting ambassador in June, presented his testimony behind closed doors on Capitol Hill but copies of his opening statement soon leaked.

Check out Ambassadors Bill Taylor opening statement to the Congressional committee.

The T's are crossed. The I's are dotted. This statement of events around the Trump administration efforts to pressure the Ukrainian government destroys any fig leaf of credibility Donald Trump has a President.

Don't take my word for it. Spend 10 minutes reading the statement.
Then consider what was said for the next 9 hours of interview.

They want to vote on impeachment soon. Or they can kiss 2020 goodbye.

I heard Hillary wanted to run again as well.
 
I predict every president from now on will face impeachment investigations, unless this blows the **** up in the Dem's faces... which it probably will.
 
Dems are waiting for the poll numbers to turn in their favor for impeachment. Generally the longer it goes, the more people start to get on board for impeachment. They want to have solid evidence though as the "witnesses" will be torn apart on the stand.

I suggest you have to a well proven lying, sociopathitic, corrupt Prez with a ton of easily provable examples and a host of external reliable witnesses who are prepared to testify.

But if the Republicians are in power all bets are off aren't they ? You can start with Birtherism allegations and move on to mass murders. In fact we just have to trawl the troll buckets of the last election to find any number of "lock her up" allegations don't we ?

And anyhow who needs proof as long you have the numbers eh Wayne?

As a point of order, I have never partaken in the birther etc conspiracies,so have no idea why you are directing that at me.

But are you any better than them, bazzz?
 
Nice Christmas present Trump just gave Putin, I'm sure he had his eyes on Syria for a while.

A few more golf clubs in Russia in return ?

Russia has shown they can be trusted to take it to the USA.
China is trying to do the same in Africa.
The world sucks.
 
Middle East is a money pit and a meat grinder for soldiers. It wasn't that long ago people were complaining that troops were dying needlessly.

The Syrian troops Obama backed are now as bad as Isis. Let Russia clean it up they already beat the rebels anyway.
