Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize[W:117]

Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

If you and the other voters don't see Trump for threat he is, that's really unfortunate. Based on his own rhetoric, Russia stands to gain from his policies. He will let them overtake Syria, and their economy will rebound. We have know for years that Putin wants to move further into Western Europe. None of that would be good for the USA

His national security appointments thus far say the opposite.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

I am sorry, but I place more value in my rights than $900. Pence is not powerless either. He could actually do something to calm people's fears and the division, instead he stands back and lets Trump throw a Twitter fit as if they are nothing but victims.

The consumers paid to watch a performance, not other audience members making noise and cause the performance to stop. If you want to go on about your rights then do it when other people haven't paid to do something other than listen to you.

Lol. Have you not heard Trump say that he wants out of funding the rebels in Syria, and Syria can fall to the Russians?

The only person who seems to be complaining is Trump. Everybody is entitled to ask for a refund.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

It's a little early to make that call.

Nah. Neither Pompeo nor Flynn is going to advocate undermining NATO or appeasing Russia.

I imagine the people that went and weren't causing a scene are less than happy with what happened. Leftists just don't seem to understand when and where their little protests are welcome. If you people want to bitch about Pence then it's really not asking for too much for you to do it on your own time.

Obama already lost in Syria.

I am more concerned with a rising Russia than Obama's legacy.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

I expect if I pay nearly $900 to watch a play to be able to watch it without its being stopped more than once because of disruptive audience behavior. Actually, if I'm seeing a play for free, I also expect this.

Ah, dashed expectation. I know what you mean. I expect our President-elect to make a boorish ass of himself whenever he opens his mouth but occasionally he sounds like a normal human being.

Russia is a weak state which has only been able to bluff because Obama is so timorous. Hillary would have been an improvement, as will be Trump.

Trump's hand will tremble when he extends it to Putin.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

It wasn't a goddamned lecture, he spoke respectfully for thirty seconds. You people should go back to your safe spaces if this offends you.

there's no right to not be offended. that would be political correctness, which is bad.

as for Pence, i doubt that he batted an eye. having watched his career for the past decade or so, my opinion is that he has one overarching goal, and it isn't VP.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

Meh.

If I recall, it was the press was making it a much bigger deal than need be, but point to the posts where I am wrong. What I will say is that the presidential enterouge isn't conducive to small intimate dinners such as that was, and was, from what I recall, rather disruptive to the entire area, with the Secret Service and local police all scurrying around attending to their duties.
And yet the president should be able to take his wife to dinner and a show every so often. He shouldn't have to be cooped up in the White House or confined only to federal properties like Camp David. Our current president is an urban sort of guy who likes urban sorts of pleasures. So does the president-elect. Both should get their choice of entertainments.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

At that point in time, in that situation, he didn't have one, did he?
He didn't seek to respond. If he had, I'm pretty sure they'd have accommodated him. And he could have responded later, in any way he chose (including a tweet). He didn't. Trump did that.

Maybe they should take a page from the Obama playbook and hit them with visits of every regulatory agency from a to z.

Was Bush timorous? Russia's military adventures on its borders began with South Ossetia during the Bush administration.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

And the significance of that will be . . . ?

Putin owns Trump.
Hell, there's even a chance Trump would take the US out of NATO. If it happens, it'll be the biggest accomplishment of a Russian leader since Stalin won WW2 in Europe.

Bush 1 or Bush 2? There were South Ossetia conflicts for both. Interestingly, they occurred while US forces were heavily engaged elsewhere.
 
Re: Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize

This thread isn't about Putin and Trump. Back to the topic and from the Hollywood Reporter:

But O'Malley addressed his presence during the number "What Comes Next," gesturing toward his seat during the line, "You're all alone."[/B] [/B]As King George, he stopped the show with his lines, "it's harder when it's your call," and "when people say they hate you, don't come crawling back to me."

Because Pence was in the audience, many lines landed quite differently. In addition to the standing ovation given to the well-known line "Immigrants, we get the job done," George Washington's remark "Winning is easy, young man, governing's harder" also got notable applause, as did Alexander Hamilton's jab about then-vice president, "John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway." And a big gasp of the night came when Washington hailed Hamilton over at the end of "Cabinet Battle #2," when Thomas Jefferson notes, "Daddy's calling," as audience members found themselves thinking of Pence's relationship to Trump.

Primarily self autonomy/determination.

His closest advisor has a history of discriminating against the LGBTQ community.

Liberals are absolutely the last ones to complain about the government interfering with self autonomy.

Never happen. I think you are misreading the situation completely.
