What was Trump doing for three hours?

We know what Obama did. He issued orders to “do whatever is necessary to support our people in Libya” and mobilize “all possible resources.” He had an hour-long conference call with the Pentagon’s Europe Command, Central Command, and Africa Command to discuss options. He then had an hour-long meeting with VP Biden, CIA head Biden, Joint Chiefs Chairman Dempsey, and other Pentagon and DOD officials about the situation in Benghazi. Then he left for debate prep.

We know what Trump did on 1/6 … violated his oath of office by deliberately choosing not to interfere with the coup attempt.
What Obama did is not what I asked. I asked where he was.

We'll see what happens with Trump. I'm not a supporter, but I can see real difficulties in building a case on his inaction.

The senate report says Dempsey got orders from Obama. Does it matter where or how he issued those orders in a thread about Trump inciting a riot and watching it on TV for three hours while issuing no orders at all?
Honesly, no, it probably doesn't matter -- which is why I'm curious about the fact that it is concealed.

Many Trump cultists are loathe to admit their fealty to him, even as they shamelessly defend him at every turn, embarrassing themselves in the process. Like you.
Attacking me makes no case. In fact whether I am or am not a Trump cultist makes no difference to the question at all. You can go now.

You're not replying to what I actually posted though, are you?


So, I'll repeat it:

And other than being consumed with it, you're not actually going to do anything either. You'll be outraged (selectively, as always), you'll throw your tantrums, look down your nose at people with contempt...but ultimately, that's all.

So, you accomplish nothing.

Tell me I'm wrong.



To this point, you haven't shown anything that refutes that.

That's fine though - I think we both know all your angst is wasted effort, produces nothing, and does you no good.

If you're fine with that, then so am I.

It's all good.

:D
Classic right wing attempt at gaslighting.

With the far right, it's nothing but power---Fascist Power, eh?

So since it doesn't matter and the evidence shows nothing at all in common between a violent event in Benghazi caused by terrorists attacking our consulate and a violent event caused by our president...

Would you care to comment on Trump watching the mob attack congress on TV and doing nothing at all to stop it for three hours?

You asked, I answered.

If you're having difficulty, perhaps this will help:


The ability to experience and express emotions is more important than you might realize.

As the felt response to a given situation, emotions play a key part in your reactions. When you’re in tune with them, you have access to important knowledge that helps with:


While emotions can have a helpful role in your daily life, they can take a toll on your emotional health and interpersonal relationships when they start to feel out of control.

Vicki Botnick, a therapist in Tarzana, California, explains that any emotion — even elation, joy, or others you’d typically view as positive — can intensify to a point where it becomes difficult to control.

With a little practice, though, you can take back the reigns. Two studies from 2010Trusted Source suggest that having good emotional regulation skills is linked to well-being. Plus, the second one found a potential link between these skills and financial success, so putting in some work on that front may literally pay off.

You should be in charge of your emotions, not the other way 'round. The latter is unhealthy.

I think you missed something. If it truly doesn't matter, why are they concealing it?
Trump is an irresponsible blowhard. If you can find me calling him anything less pejorative than that, go right ahead and cite it. Want me to condemn Trump -- consider him condemned.

Would you vote for Trump if he runs in 2024?

No. I'm contemplating a third party vote for only the second time in my life. I'm sick and tired of the Trump side show, and ready for that particular circus to leave town. At the same time, the Democratic Party endorses as party planks things like affirmative action and additional gun control that are completely anathema to me. Depending on who runs I could vote Libertarian, possibly American Taxpayers party. It's a wasted vote where I live, Trump would win in a landslide with our without my vote.

By "Irresponsible blowhard" you are actually being quite kind.

He's a criminal and malignant bag of shit who is destroying the republican party.

No third party candidate can win. Voting third party, instead of for the Dem, would be the equivalent of voting for Trump.

Expect to have that repeated to you often
Everytime you bring up how tall I am, my restaurant, my schedule...backatcha.

You post something critical of Biden and I point out how silent you were when Trump was worse is not off topic...but you'll claim it is.

You have no excuse for posting about me...but you do.
