Possibly? He keeps contradicting himself, sometimes in the same sentence.

Luckily I think it is the electoral and governmental systems that are deficient, not the public which is basically the same everywhere

Q: You said the war is 'very complete.' But your defense secretary says 'this is just the beginning.' So which is it?


TRUMP: You could say both

Video appears to show U.S. cruise missile striking Iranian school compound The seven-second video was released by Iranian state media and directly contradicts statements made by President Trump, who said Iran was responsible for the strike.

The Iranian girls’ school was hit by a US tomahawk cruise missile. NPR has confirmed the footage.

I am getting mixed signals here, Kevin

For the same $6 trillion cost, you could crush child poverty with a child allowance and free childcare, fix unemployment insurance, do paid family, sick & medical leave, massively boost ACA subsidies, and eliminate child uninsurance with Medicare for Kids.

we take it for granted today, but a single caramel mocha latte has more extreme vanilla sweet cream flavour than Edmund Burke would get in his whole lifetime

I am 3 weeks out from back surgery and this is body horror

Oh she spams the academics too? I have eventually had her flood my email box at every think tank or evaluation shop I have ever worked at.
