ET. Try sticking with things you think you understand. That way you can understand what you think. Got it.

Like politics and trade?

Do tell... what was the domestic response to the trade deal in your country?

Children can be so annoying some days, can't they?
Ely has a newqw toy today - he found two memes he can pretend are me. Careful, try to take that bone away you might get bit.

Reminds me of the time we played peek a boo with him.
Took him three weeks to stop looking for me.

Kids will be kids.

Most here are brainwashed by the MudSlingingMob, as in your country.
And are willing to just wait out Justine's run. He was elected mainly for his promise of legalising marijuana but that is turning into a fiasco of more fines rather than actual legalisation.

Okay so zero analysis... got it.

Sure looked like Trudeau and Freeland made fools of Harper and Scheer...

Turkey is playing good cop right now in the region.

They are playing it pretty well I might add.

Your post:

Quote:
Brunson's release came amid another diplomatic crisis within Turkey involving the alleged murder of Washington Post journalist and Saudi national Jamal Khashoggi. Turkey alleges that he was murdered by the Saudis and is trying to convince the United States of the same. Turkey has a longstanding rivalry with Saudi Arabia and saw Brunson's release as critical to gaining U.S. support in this separate crisis.
Also Turkey has played a pivotal role in being on the frontline opposed to Assad/Russian/Iranian forces in and around Idlib.

Well... I did read the article and threw back the immediate point I was making from his own article...

The article also points out that the Secretary of State and former head of the CIA greatly disagreed with the President's course of action.

So we have more infighting in the Administration or was that "fake news" too?

The cherry-picking of articles these days is bordering on hilarious with Trump supporters.

So is the nit-picking from the left...

Do you think with Obama's water colored red lines and his lead from behind tact would of free him... No

But President Trumps strong reputation for backing up his word... did, results all that matters

Check and Mate...

Meanwhile... John Bolton who is the poster-boy for Neo-Conservatism strongly supports this.

I remember when people on here were loving to bash the Neo-Cons...

2 years is an eternity in politics.
Plenty of rocks still to be turned over.

Nov 6th 2018 will be a true barometer reading.
The Senate seems out of reach, mainly due to gerrymandering.
The House will be blue again.

If there isn't a palpable swing against Trump that day, I'll be shocked.
Again.

Senate races are statewide. Its just an extremely favorable electoral map for Republicans in the Senate this cycle.

That said:

95% of all the "toss-up" races are currently Republican held.

If Democrats win half that's a +30 net.

And that's not even counting R-helds that aren't toss-ups switched to likely/lean D victories.
