America, Urine trouble now... January 11, 2017 3:07 pm RL

We have gone from wikileaks to icky-leaks…
The slow trickle of compromising information is becoming a steady stream that is impressive for a man in his 70s…
Conflicts of interest, nepotism, taxpayers paying for the wall, no ethics vetting of nominees… and now this:

Trump puts the ‘P’ in Presidential….

Seriously, if these allegations had been made about Obama, or Bush they would have been universally dismissed, but with Trump the reaction is “yeah, I can see Donald doing something like that…(retch)”
Of course the allegations of his campaign colluding with the Russians are far more disturbing, but have been drowned out and watered down by the more salacious details…

If these allegations prove to be true, it will be a yellow stain on the presidency, but to his followers it will not make a whit of difference even if they see the video- they are in too deep with him to cut loose now…. after all, they stuck with him through all the times he pissed on the constitution…

Who knows, maybe it is fake news (YELLOW Journalism? main-STREAM media?)- but he did not deny that the info in question WAS part of his security briefing (oh to be a fly on the wall!)- he just condemned the fact that it was …um…leaked…
Accounts differ on this:

Two U.S. officials told NBC News that materials prepared for Trump in advance of last week’s intelligence briefing included damaging allegations from the memorandum — unverified by American intelligence agencies — about his dealings with the Russians.

Officials prepared a two-page summary of the memo for Trump’s briefing Friday at Trump Tower in New York. The summary was an “annex,” or addendum, included in the “supporting documents” that accompanied the classified briefing report.

While multiple officials say the summary was included in the material prepared for the briefers, the senior official told NBC News that the briefing was oral and no actual documents were left with the Trump team in New York. During the briefing, the president-elect was not briefed on the contents of the summary .

But if you live by the fake news, so may you also die by the fake news.

From his press conference today:

Trump:

Russia can help us fight ISIS, which, by the way, is, number one, tricky.

So, I will tell you that not within the meeting, but outside of the meeting, somebody released it. It should have never been — number one, shouldn’t have even entered paper. But it should have never have been released. But I read what was released and I think it’s a disgrace. I think it’s an absolute disgrace.

If you can diagram and decipher those first two sentences you have my admiration…

And number one, “I hope you’re gonna be good anyway. But in those rooms, you have cameras in the strangest places. Cameras that are so small with modern technology, you can’t see them and you won’t know. You better be careful, or you’ll be watching yourself on nightly television.”

I tell this to people all the time.

I was in Russia years ago, with the Miss Universe contest, which did very well — Moscow, the Moscow area did very, very well.

And I told many people, “Be careful, because you don’t wanna see yourself on television. Cameras all over the place.”

And again, not just Russia, all over.

Does anyone really believe that story?

I’m also very much of a germaphobe, by the way, believe me.
