BOLD like a Leopard

The smear strategy that predicted Donald Trump's failure as President has yielded zero evidence. Who predicted in 2016 that Trump as president would interact as well as he has with the leadership of China and other major rivals? Not me.  (Al-Jazeera) Love Trumps Hate of 2016 proved to be a very ironic slogan, as Trump's bitter enemies from Clinton to Gutierrez are consumed by their own bitterness. If you would have asked me at any point before November 2016 whether Donald Trump could be elected president, with majorities in both houses of Congress, and succeed in implementing any of his platform, I would have probably weaseled out of giving a straight answer. We have been used to being led by people that see themselves as statesmen and representatives of a system that pays lip service to being responsible to the American people. Is there any event that has happened since Donald Trump's election that has validated his opponents' doom predictions?  Q

Let's be clear, even though I've shared this over and over again: I was not a Roy Moore supporter, I don't live in Alabama anyway, and I'm not proclaiming him to be innocent but rather innocent until proven guilty . I also think that he was out of his mind with many of his campaign statements, his handling of his media appearances was incompetent to a fault, and he failed to promote his message beyond his traditional support base of hardcore conservative Christians. In short, Roy Moore deserved to lose, and that's leaving aside the ridiculous smear campaign that was waged against him based on allegations that were 40 years old that ironically surfaced a month within a special election caused by a vacancy due to a presidential appointment. Yet last night, instead of acknowledging that Roy Moore's personal vulnerabilities torpedoed his campaign, Twitter users started attributing his defeat to a certain sector of the population that they call #BlackWomen.

If you're just waking up after some spirit journey on mescaline, or if you've been in solitary confinement away from any news sources, thank you for joining us while the world loses its shit  over NOTHING. Any way you cut it the moving of the United States embassy to Jerusalem is a story that if people had a proper perspective on world affairs would be relegated to page 16 of most newspapers. But as it is there are three reactions to this story. 1. Donald Trump has officially alienated us from the Muslim world and may have started WWIII. 2. Sudden Fanboy Onset Syndrome (SFOS) 3. Focusing on stuff that is slightly less bullshit.  Me in about 20 years watching the @30for30 on the Ball family. #LavarBall #Lonzo #Melo #Gelo #futureESPN30for30 pic.twitter.com/4gbIODj4nN — Josh Baldwin (@baldwinjosh) December 4, 2017 Well, I'll tell you what: I didn't fall for any of it. Donald Trump took a risky stab at doing a very symbolic thing to satisfy

The following is a response point by point to a friend's statements on the Mueller investigation. His statements are in blue while mine are in black. My understanding of this argument is that you were denying any need for an investigation because you have not seen any hard evidence of a crime being committed. Now It sounds you agree that there should be an investigation, but that there is still no hard evidence of a crime and that the investigation will not solve anything. But I don’t understand, if you think it won’t solve anything, then why investigate?  Maybe you don’t understand why there are at least three ongoing investigations.  Or maybe you think it’s all a witch hunt and therefore all just for show.  So after investigating Hillary Clinton numerous times, after so many Congressional hearings, what could they find on her? But, I hear you say, if they couldn’t find the smoking gun on her (and by the way, the left-wing media that you criticize, I think unfairly, also wro
