Nancy Pelosi said today that if they win the House, the first thing they are going to do is get Trump's taxes. She said it's a very easy thing to do.
BUT NO ONE KNOWS THAT BECAUSE KANYE AND KID ROCK VISITED WHITE HOUSE TODAY AND THE MEDIA COVERED IT LIKE A STATE VISIT FROM THE QUEEN.
I know because I follow her on Twitter. But how do you get a message out in the crazy Trump 24/7 news cycle that features 10 crazy things per day?
Just because they ask for his tax returns does not mean they will get them.
Ask those GOP house guys that want all the incriminating evidence on the deep state and they cannot get it even though they are in the same party. They will be going back and forth forever with each party using the event to get their base excited. In the end it will be a waste of time but it will take over the news cycle.
Period Two: The real deep state
If the Justice Department, including the FBI, or Mueller, asks for Trump's tax returns, they'll get them.
It is easy to get incriminating evidence on the deep state: just looe at the Trump cabal, both regarding his business cons and his corrupt appointments, and the financiers of such. Also, there is the last four SCOTUS appointments, all Federalist thinking deep state clones. _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo"

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.
I don't think he'd let them (and I'm not sure the US let this happen? Not sure on the details tbh). But if it happened under his administration, I really don't think anything would change. He might be more vocal in his anger, but behind the scenes business would run as usual.
Not to turn this into an Obama v Trump argument, but I'm just saying even though Trump is a moron, he basically says out loud what is really going to happen behind the scenes, regardless of who is president. That's how I see it, I may be wrong but I don't think I am.
In an interview with the Atlantic published last month, Obama referred to Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries as “free riders” unwilling to secure chaotic zones like Libya, angering many in the kingdom.
No single act was more significant than the signing of the Iran deal, which lifted international sanctions in exchange for limits on Tehran’s ability to build a nuclear weapon.
At its heart, the stress comes down to two different interpretations of which presents the greater threat: Iran or extremist groups such as al Qaeda and the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. Saudi Arabia has made clear that its priority is on countering Iran, leaving the U.S. out to dry in some of the terrorist fights.
Saudi Arabia sees the Iran nuclear deal as something that will only embolden Tehran and, perhaps more importantly, interpreted its signing as proof that Washington was looking beyond Riyadh to position itself in the Middle East.
Trump used Saudi Arabia as distraction in the midst of a bad news cycle earlier this year. It was very awkward.
Obama did not have a hard time criticizing the Saudis but Iran who commits far worse atrocities regularly was given a free pass and a bunch of money.
Period Four: Let's find some country of "others*" to wage a new war
Iran was not given a free pass nor a bunch of money.

@adkindo You posted polls. They're nothing but a a guess. I look at them and in some cases hope they come to frution. In others I hope they're wrong. LINK Remember Hilary was a sure thing against Trump.
The polls have not been very accurate. Best guess is that GOP picks up 1-3 seats in the senate as Democrats have a lot more seats up for grabs.
The House looks close I can find reports that go either way. GOP will probably lose seats but who keeps the majority looks to be in question and lose to a toss up. .

The polls have been extremely accurate, with the averaging by reputable sites to be within, to well within, the margins of error.
I'm sure you can find all the reports you want from the Wingnut Gazette, that will tell you what you want to hear, but 538, a math and logic driven site with a very commendable track record, predicts 230 - 205. _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo"

Trump cheated on his wife 10 years ago. While that is bad it doesn't come close to Clinton who raped women and had sex with an intern while in office

A landslide victory in politics is any election in which the victor wins by an overwhelming margin. If I were to leave it at that, we'd be fighting over what overwhelming means, so I'll use the following, as, a) it was the first hit with specifics as to a landslide, with a lead-in picture of St. Reagan, aka Mr. Iran/Contra); b) It did not appear to have bias; and c) It makes sense (no, we're not going to fight over what making sense means either): https://www.thoughtco.com/definition-of-a-landslide-election-3367585

One generally agreed upon measure of a landslide election is when the winning candidate beats his opponent or opponents by at least 15 percentage points in a popular vote count. Under that scenario a landslide would occur when the winning candidate in a two-way election receives 58 percent of the vote, leaving his opponent with 42 percent.
Quote:
Again, there is no legal or constitutional definition of a landslide in a presidential election.

Never? Please re-read lesson one. Ever hear of Lee Atwater? Ever hear of the Southern Strategy?
Only learning to fight? The GOP has been cheating and lying and obfuscating since I have been an adult****. Garland, Nixon, Reagan and now Trump. If I must, I can provide enough examples for a year of classwork.
*Hillary
**Pelosi
***Feinstein
****Every Republican president has had at least one scandal or grave impropriety: Nixon, Watergate and working with South Vietnan (before he was elected) to prolong the war; Ford, pardoned Nixon, never allowing for closure; Reagan, Iran/Contra, five scandals in one; Bush the 1st, a knowing participant of Iran/Contra who lied about his knowledge; Bush the 2nd, took a surplus and created the largest deficit ever, presided over the financial collapse, and he, and his Bushettes, lied us into a war that is possibly the worst foreign policy decision in my lifetime, if not ever. _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo"

I have always regarded Rasmussen as acting oddly, if not suspiciously. Here is one example. On Nov 2 they had it 44-44 as they did on Nov 4. On Nov 5 they had it 45 - 42 Trump. This was the pattern for Rasmussen through the election, but oddly on the last day, they had it 45 - 43 Clinton. So, just as all the other polls were moving slightly in Trump's favor, Rasmussen moved in Hillary's favor. Just freeking odd. Maybe they didn't have a party-line with Trump and Putin. (For the young'ens, a party-line was a phone line that had to be shared between or among households.) _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo"
