Judge Blocks New York From Turning Over Trump Tax Returns To Congress

It just seems like Trump supporters defend everything he does because the left's constant attacks on Trump fail each and every time, wonder why that is so?
Probably because they are less concerned about the good of the country and what is right than they are about frustrating people that they consider their enemies.

It’s irrational, like much of what passes for political insight around here.

"Mr. Trump". "Ms. Clinton" . . . it was you. "Mrs. Warren", how politically correct.
You, the President, and many of the Fox News talking heads don’t seem to know the definition of political correctness:

The term political correctness (adjectivally: politically correct; commonly abbreviated PC) is used to describe language, policies, or measures that are intended to avoid offense or disadvantage to members of particular groups in society.​

The President, Secretary Clinton, and Senator Warren are not disadvantaged members of society.

The reason why I use more formal titles is simple: (1) I don’t hate any of those people, despite some dishonest people around here constantly making that accusation; (2) I pray for these people (and many more in our government), so I do honor them as persons made in God’s image; (3) I want to set a good example of respect for our political leaders since that is my Christian responsibility (see Romans 13:1-7, especially v.6-7); (4) I often get accused by Trump enablers that I am disrespectful to President Trump, and I don’t want those liars to have any leverage when I challenge them on it.

Impeachment and removal will NEVER happen...
Impeachment is quite likely to happen but removal is less likely. Much of that will depend upon what comes out over the next few weeks.

Remember, I had this opinion in Fall 2016. I did not realize that the Republican Party would throw away all of their cherished ideals and their alleged commitment to rule of law just to enable Trump.

Something you need to consider is that Baptistboard has become and echo chamber for Trump supporters and conspiracy theorists. You all are very poor predictors if the outcome of elections and other political activity. Remember all of the reassurance you all gave each other than the Republicans were not going to lose the House in the 2018 election? I called that one months ahead of time.

...and the RNC have raised twelve million dollars in just a few days.
I’m not sure why that is supposed to impress me. There’s always money around for politicians, especially when they represent the interests of wealthy people and corporations.

Trump is NOT unpopular with the GOP base and he's going nowhere.
I suspect you don’t realize that the Republican base is shrinking. I’m a third-generation Republican (representing about 110 years in my family), and I no longer consider myself a Republican because of the rise of Trump. And I know a lot of people here in Fort Worth who no longer consider themselves to be Republican — and this is traditionally a Republican stronghold.

He will also win a second term...
Maybe, but I wouldn’t count on it.

”Mr. Biden" and "Mrs. Warren": can't cut it.
I am not a fan of either one of them — and neither one has been selected to be the Democratic candidate — but I think a potato in a paper sack could beat Trump in October 2020, if Trump is still in office.

Try try try again, Trump is always several steps ahead of them.
So what? Criminals always start out ahead of law enforcement. That is changing now.

Pelosi is the one in the painted corner. But a neverTrumper will never believe that, Trump is the great white whale and they are Captain Ahab.
You shouldn’t make fun of the President’s weight.

Nope, it's the left and their neverTrump allies that aren't concerned about the good of the country - impeachment, on trumped-up charges at that, is never good for the country.

Everything Trump does is wrong to these people, they consider everyone who supports Trump at all to be their enemy. Sure, there are exceptions to this rule but many of them will do anything to get Trump out. They act the same way whenever there is a GOP president.

Blind hatred and rage usually is.

FOX News! (drinks)

You are finally in the right party, sheesh - tell me, where does it say that PC can only apply to a disadvantaged member of society? Taking offense at calling some NA poseur an NA nickname is being PC. The definition, ya know.

The reason why I use more formal titles is simple: (1) I don’t hate any of those people, despite some dishonest people around here constantly making that accusation; (2) I pray for these people (and many more in our government), so I do honor them as persons made in God’s image; (3) I want to set a good example of respect for our political leaders since that is my Christian responsibility (see Romans 13:1-7, especially v.6-7); (4) I often get accused by Trump enablers that I am disrespectful to President Trump, and I don’t want those liars to have any leverage when I challenge them on it.

That's all and good, but I have some trouble believing you have much respect for Trump, maybe for the office.

Impeachment is quite likely to happen but removal is less likely. Much of that will depend upon what comes out over the next few weeks.

It's a Hail Mary pass that will be intercepted in the end zone as it stands. There's just nothing there, the Democrat Party should always ignore their MSM's suggestions and go back to giving the alphabet networks their marching orders.

Remember, I had this opinion in Fall 2016. I did not realize that the Republican Party would throw away all of their cherished ideals and their alleged commitment to rule of law just to enable Trump.

Trump was the candidate of choice in 2016, this is bottom-up. Look at the earlier candidates, Bush, McCain, Romney. Didn't want more of that.

You all are very poor predictors if the outcome of elections and other political activity. Remember all of the reassurance you all gave each other than the Republicans were not going to lose the House in the 2018 election? I called that one months ahead of time.

People were calling that the day after the presidential election, blue wave, remember? But it never was, you thought the Democrats would make gains in the Senate, they didn't. You also thought Hillary or Trump would be impeached in the first two years of office, yet they weren't. And you bought into the Russian conspiracy idea lock stock and barrel and still think Trump is guilty of obstruction of justice.

I’m not sure why that is supposed to impress me. There’s always money around for politicians, especially when they represent the interests of wealthy people and corporations.

Sign that impeachment proceedings will blow up in their faces, looks like they know they can't beat him next year and are trying to run him out of office first.

I suspect you don’t realize that the Republican base is shrinking. I’m a third-generation Republican (representing about 110 years in my family), and I no longer consider myself a Republican because of the rise of Trump. And I know a lot of people here in Fort Worth who no longer consider themselves to be Republican — and this is traditionally a Republican stronghold.

Okay, maybe Fort Worth is a neverTrump stronghold. I think you formed a narrative in your mind at least three years ago that both Hillary and Trump were hopelessly corrupt and that the opposing party would just have to impeach and remove whoever won, and you voted accordingly.

I am not a fan of either one of them — and neither one has been selected to be the Democratic candidate — but I think a potato in a paper sack could beat Trump in October 2020, if Trump is still in office.

Really? What states do you think he'll lose because I can't think of one that will flip. The power of incumbency is a big thing. You need the big guns to take out one of them - a horrible economy with a charismatic candidate (Reagan) or a recession and a three party race (Clinton)

So what? Criminals always start out ahead of law enforcement. That is changing now.

LO:L, the Democratic Party is the law and Trump is the criminal to you? Telling. . .

You shouldn’t make fun of the President’s weight.

The whale did not sit on Ahab but he died chasing the whale all around.
