Trump has named almost 40 lobbyists to key govt positions

[Slyfox696]

Wrong as usual

Nope.

Yes, "the blue button" as you called it.

Oh, so you DON'T know what I really mean? Interesting.

Well, then, I guess we'll just consider that the second thing in this thread you don't understand. Have a great day.

 

[Excon]

Nope.

Yes, you are wrong as usual.

Oh, so you DON'T know what I really mean? Interesting.

:doh

 

[Slyfox696]

Yes

Nope. It was proven you showed you didn't understand. I can appreciate your attempts at deflection, but it's not fooling anyone.

:doh

It bothers you when you don't understand something, doesn't it? You shouldn't let it bother you. Just ask and I'll happily explain it to you so you can finally understand.

 

[Excon]

Nope. It was proven you showed you didn't understand.

Wrong as usual.
Your attempts to falsely claim otherwise are just defections.
You are and have been wrong from the get and it is you who are not fooling anyone.

It bothers you when you don't understand something, doesn't it? You shouldn't let it bother you. Just ask and I'll happily explain it to you so you can finally understand.

Look at you making up more things to believe.
Hilarious.
:2rofll:

 

[Slyfox696]

Wrong as usual.

No, I provided your post. It was proven.

Look at you making up more things to believe.

Oh, I'm not making it up. See, I initially assumed you would know what I'm talking about, but then you repeatedly posted things which wasn't what I was talking about, so I have no choice but to assume you don't understand what's happening again.

You could clear this up quickly by simply acknowledging what I'm talking about. Do you acknowledge it? Can you post what I'm talking about?

 

[Excon]

No, I provided your post. It was proven.

:lamo
A reply that is as wrong as the thoughts behind it are.
You made up something to believe, something that simply isn't true.
That isn't going to change.

Oh, I'm not making it up.

Wrong as usual.

:2rofll:
And again, the statement was factual and no one expects partisans to go around making factual statements. Your comment was an indication of what you absurdly made up to believe.

All you are trying to do is deflect from the asininity of your post.

 

[Slyfox696]

You made up something to believe, something that simply isn't true.

No, I proved it. You claimed one thing when I said another. It's clear. You don't understand.

And again, the statement was factual and no one expects partisans to go around making factual statements. Your comment was an indication of what you absurdly made up to believe.

All you are trying to do is deflect from the asininity of your post.

You're not even talking about the right thing. This part of my post was still about the blue button and how I was fairly confident you'd know what I meant, but your posts suggests you don't.

If you know what I mean regarding the link button, go ahead and say it. After all, you keep making my point about it.

 

[Excon]

No, I proved it. You claimed one thing when I said another. It's clear. You don't understand.

You are being dishonest and making things up to believe again.
You proved nothing other than you like making things up to believe as well as like posting absurd thoughts.

Again.

A reply that is as wrong as the thoughts behind it are.
You made up something to believe, something that simply isn't true.
That isn't going to change.​

All your flailing won't change that.

You're not even talking about the right thing. This part of my post was still about the blue button and how I was fairly confident you'd know what I meant, but your posts suggests you don't.

And again; Wrong as usual.
iLOL

If you know what I mean regarding the link button, go ahead and say it. After all, you keep making my point about it.

iLOL
What are you on about? I already told you removing the link button does not matter one bit.
I even did it to you to show you that it doesn't matter. Did you really not understand what you were told?
Are your thoughts so convoluted that you do not understand that removing the link button matters not one damn bit?

Again.

iLOL
The blue button is nothing more than a link back to what was quoted
You can leave out that blue button all you want, it doesn't matter to me. iLOL
Let's see if it matters to you? ​

Did you really not understand the above. I even left the link buttons out of that reply (as noted) so you would see it matters not one damn bit. But of course you probably didn't notice that.

 

[Slyfox696]

You are being dishonest

No, your post clearly showed you not understanding. I've shown that multiple times.

And again; Wrong as usual.

No, you really did post something which had nothing to do with what I said.

I think it's amusing how you try to cover the errors in your post by just claiming everyone else is wrong, even when it's about what the other person was talking about. You can't even acknowledge your mistakes about what someone else was thinking.

What are you on about?

Exactly. You don't understand. Thank you for finally acknowledging that.

I already told you removing the link button does not matter one bit.

And I already told you that's not what I really mean. If you don't get it, just say so. But continuing to post about something I'm not talking about only proves you don't understand.

 

[Excon]

No, your post clearly showed you not understanding. I've shown that multiple times.

More dishonesty. Figures.
You are wrong and your flailing isn't going to change that.

No, you really did post something which had nothing to do with what I said.

:2rofll: Wrong as usual.

 

[Slyfox696]

More dishonesty.

Nope. I proved it. Your post was false, as I never claimed your reply was partisan, though you claimed I did. You are incorrect, good sir.

Wrong as usual.

You don't even know what I'm talking about. If you do, feel free to share what I really mean. What was I really talking about, if you're so sure you know? I know what I meant, but nothing you have posted suggests you do. So if you know, just say it. What did I mean?

 

[Excon]

Nope. I proved it. Your post was false, as I never claimed your reply was partisan, though you claimed I did. You are incorrect, good sir.

And again you are being dishonest here, and as such, you are wrong.
Nothing you can say will change that or your current dishonesty.
You made up bs to believe that wasn't true and continued doing so.

But here. let me play the same stupid game you are playing to show just show wrong you have been.

This is what I said.

There is nothing partisan about the reply, but a partisan would think there is. ​

The first portion is a statement of fact and no where does it say you said it was.

Oy ****ing vey!

You don't even know what I'm talking about. If you do, feel free to share what I really mean. What was I really talking about, if you're so sure you know? I know what I meant, but nothing you have posted suggests you do. So if you know, just say it. What did I mean?

I already replied to you.
You clearly spoke about the "blue button" and left it out.
I addressed that and informed you that it doesn't matter if you do that. I even showed you it doesn't matter.

1. If (iLOL) you were speaking about something else, that is your fault for not being specific and direct. Not mine.
2. Nor do I have to address your what you think you are speaking about even if you are direct about it. Do you really not understand that?

 

[Slyfox696]

And again you are being dishonest here

Nope, I proved it. You can flail as wildly as you like, but it won't change the truth.

I already replied to you.

Yes, but not about what I was talking about. Like I said, you obviously don't understand what's going on.

You clearly spoke about the "blue button" and left it out.

Again, I was talking about what I really mean. Which you obviously don't understand.

2. Nor do I have to address your what you think you are speaking about

But you don't understand. And you still try to tell me I'm wrong. Which is exactly my point. You clearly don't understand what I meant, so why do you keep pretending like you do?

You were wrong. Your comment about the blue button had nothing to do with what I was discussing. So just admit you don't understand what's going on.

 

[Excon]

Nope, I proved it. You can flail as wildly as you like, but it won't change the truth.

:lamo
The truth you know not as you are making things up to believe. That clearly isn't going to change.

Yes, but not about what I was talking about. Like I said, you obviously don't understand what's going on.

Again, I was talking about what I really mean. Which you obviously don't understand.

Nothing but dishonest nonsense. Figures.
You are, have been, and will continue to be, wrong. Nothing will change that no matter how much you flail about.

 

[Slyfox696]

The truth you know not

Of course I do, I already proved it.

You are, have been, and will continue to be, wrong.

You're the one who doesn't understand what I was saying. You have posted multiple times and have proven you don't understand. If you do know why I brought up the blue button, just say what I really meant. Otherwise, just acknowledge you are wrong and you have no idea what I was talking about and this is just another thing you don't understand.

Either you understand what I mean and you can post it or you don't understand what I meant and you won't post it. Which is it?

 

[Excon]

Of course I do, I already proved it.

Wrong and dishonest as usual. So sad.

iLOL Wrong as usual and making things up to believe. Figures.
So sad.

 

[JumpinJack]

If Flynn is still lobbying and for all intents and purposes he is, then he is breaking Trump's E.O.

He registered retroactively, presumably to get out of legal trouble, if it works. I don't know if Turkey still wants him, though. Dunno if he'd be an effective lobbyist, now. But you make an interesting point.

 

[Slyfox696]

Wrong and dishonest as usual.

Nope, I proved it.

Wrong as usual and making things up to believe. Figures.
So sad.

Oh, I can provide definitive proof you don't know what I'm talking about. I've enjoyed watching you try so hard to disguise how little you understood what I meant, but I'm starting to grow tired of my game and I've sufficiently proven my point.

I can provide you indisputable and undeniable proof your comment about the blue button was not what I was talking about. Would you like me to do so and prove how wrong you were?

 

[Excon]

Nope, I proved it.

:lamo No, I proved you wrong.

And I have enjoyed watching you make things up to believe just as you are again doing. I have disguised nothing.

But please continue making things up to believe. It is hilarious.

 

[Slyfox696]

No, I proved you wrong.

Nope. Your post clearly showed you defending your post as non-partisan, even though I never claimed it was partisan. I have been right all along.

And I have enjoyed watching you make things up to believe just as you are again doing. I have disguised nothing.

But please continue making things up to believe. It is hilarious.

I'm not making anything up, this whole conversation has been entirely about what I meant when I brought up the blue button. But if you truly think I'm making it up, then you should have no problem with me revealing my indisputable proof you are wrong, correct? So would you like to see how I know you're wrong and how I know you have no idea what you're talking about?

 

[Excon]

Nope.

Yes. Wrong as usual.

Again.

And again you are being dishonest here, and as such, you are wrong.

Oy ****ing vey!​

I'm not making anything up,

Wrong as usual.

 

[Slyfox696]

Yes. Wrong as usual.

Nope, already proven I'm right. Especially when you tried to defend your post earlier:

Just what kind of responses do you expect from a partisan? Non-partisan right?

Why do you not tell the truth about something so easily proven?

Wrong as usual.

Would you like to see the proof? The fact is you have no idea what I'm talking about and we both know it. You know how we know it? Because if you did know, you'd post it. But you're not posting it, because you have no idea. It amuses me.

A reminder of Trump's position on lobbyists and administration officials:

Trump's lobbying ban was step towards 'draining the swamp' | TheHill

Fast forward a month:

Trump appoints a colorful bunch to fill official 'beachhead teams' | MSNBC

Trump appoints Gen. Michael Flynn as Director of the National Security Agency and Security Advisor to the President. Not only did Flynn subsequently have several conversations with Russians about the sanctions about to be imposed on Russia, Flynn also rec'd not insignificant income from Russia, AND it has been learned that Flynn was at the time a lobbyist for a foreign country, Turkey. At the time Flynn made fiery speeches of "Lock her up!" about Hillary Clinton, he was representing the interests of a foreign country that works against the U.S. in Syria and other issues. And Trump appointed him as SECURITY ADVISOR and head of the Nation Security Agency.

Now we have learned that Trump has placed at least 36 lobbyists into key administration positions that don't require confirmations.


Trump appoints a colorful bunch to fill official 'beachhead teams' | MSNBC

Trump supporters have been Trumped. "Trump is going to drain the swamp of lobbyists! I know it, because he said so! He's a populist who is for the little guy! No more special interests! No more lobbyists!" Trumped.

The Part you left out is they signed an agreement not to be Lobbyists for 5 years after leaving office or foreign Govt lobbyist for life.

 

[Excon]

Nope, already proven I'm right.

Nope, I already proved you wrong.
As usual.

Why do you not tell the truth about something so easily proven?

You need to be answer that question as you were already proven wrong.


Tell me something.
Why are your quotes of me not showing up in my "Who Quoted Me" page?
I can see someone has replied to the thread in my Control Panel, but not that you quoted me. Why is that?

 

[Slyfox696]

Nope

Yep.

Tell me something.

Nah, I'm still waiting on you to answer my question. We'll try again, hopefully without your attempt to dodge this time:

Would you like to see the proof? The fact is you have no idea what I'm talking about and we both know it. You know how we know it? Because if you did know, you'd post it. But you're not posting it, because you have no idea.
