    Exactly. Those who oppose the citizenship question are attempting to fraudulently affect the distribution of House Representatives.

    For years before Trump was elected I was shouting from the rooftops "We must defend our borders"! Now Trump is the 1st one to attempt that and you attack him at every turn! That is enough right there for you to handle.
    Here's a little extra homework for you.....see if you can admit to anything good.(Of course you'll probably give the credit to Obongo.

    We can see the difference between Trump and your hero Obama's approach to peace on the Korean Peninsula.

    The Art of Peace, Trump edition

    [​IMG]

    North Korea is a protectorate of Red China. Any economic deal will include North Korea, which has great economic importance for South Korea, or as some of us prefer, the Republic of Korea.

    President Trump has held to economic sanctions but he also holds out economic investment. Companies in the ROK would love to (and already are) import North Korean labor because these workers know the language and the culture.

    Those small steps across the DMZ today are a great leap forward for the two Koreas, the USA, Red China and Japan. We can open a McDonald's in Pyongyang next year.

    Do you think President Trump did not give Chairman Xi a head's up on this visit?

    His plan called for him to fix the economy, go after Red China, and make peace with North Korea.

    While President Trump did all this, the media was screaming like a cat lady about Russian Collusion.

    Hillary is making a fool out of herself everyday doing her speaking tours. Noone cares. She's a loser who lost and it wasn't because of Russia. She did it to herself. I've never heard a candidate insult half the country on the campaign trail by calling them "deplorables" She's uncaring and just plain selfish. She hates anyone who isn't rich too. She grew up in Arkansas, but she favors NY where her elitist friends are. She lost touch with the middle class a long time ago if she ever cared about them in the first place.

    I think that the court is not guessing. I am neither guessing or not guessing.

    The court said, he had an ulterior motive. You are guessing at the ulterior motive.

    Where in the opinions of the SCOTUS is it stated that Trump had an ulterior motive on the census question ??

    Trump's fans are not patriots. They members of a cult. How else do you explain their inability to defend Trump. You avoided all the posts concerning vital issues of today to change the subject away from what Trump is actually doing and saying.

    How else do you explain your support for a President who is pandering to communist dictators?

    “I was really being tough - and so was he. And we would go back and forth,” Trump told a rally in West Virginia. "And then we fell in love, okay? No, really - he wrote me beautiful letters, and they’re great letters,” he said.

    "I have great confidence in my intelligence people, but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today," Trump said during a joint news conference in Helsinki.

    At the Group of 20 meeting in Osaka, Japan, Trump was asked about the election meddling. He lifted a finger, pointed it at Putin while smirking and joked, “Don’t meddle in the election.” Putin surely grasped the significance of Trump’s lame gesture. He got away with it and can again. Trump wants Putin's help again in 2020.

    President Xi and I will always be friends, no matter what happens with our dispute on trade.

    "President Trump doesn't have fans. He has Patriots." Now we both know you couldn't possibly be serious. That was a joke, right?

    Yup, and black is white, day is night.

    In this case it does. Roberts isn't about to say the President is lying. Instead, Trump's logic was "contrived."

    You consistently waste everyone's time on terminology.

    Trump was unaware that there were no airports during the Revolutionary War.

    "The Continental Army suffered a bitter winter of Valley Forge, found glory across the waters of the Delaware and seized victory from Cornwallis of Yorktown. Our army manned the [unclear], it [unclear] the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do."

    On Friday, Trump said he had problems with the teleprompter, telling journalists: “I guess the rain knocked out the teleprompter, so it’s not that, but I knew the speech very well, so I was able to do it without a teleprompter. But the teleprompter did go out. And it was actually hard to look at anyway because there was rain all over it.”

    In other words, without the teleprompter, Trump thought there were airports during our war for independence!

    :banana::clapping::roflol::rolleyes:

    Come on, now that is funny.

    And in most states it's illegal to open-carry a weapon into a bar.

    In most states, including California and Pennsylvania, guns are allowed in bars and restaurants, as long as they're in compliance with the law.

    Trump is a fool so there is not need for him to work at being a fool to make it so.

    The court suggested that Trump's reasoning was flawed. Why else would he want that issue on the ballot? Got any ideas?

    contrived | kənˈtrīvd | adjective • created or arranged in a way that seems artificial and unrealistic: the ending of the novel is too pat and contrived.

    Actually Roberts decided the DOJ's case was not strong enough and left open the door to revisit it.

    I don't see the word "lied" in there anywhere.

    The Supreme Court upheld in part the ruling of a lower federal court barring the question. In the majority opinion, Chief Justice John Roberts declared that the Commerce Department provided a pretextual reason for wanting the citizenship question that was merely “a distraction,” in violation of the legal requirement that agencies disclose the true reasons behind their decisions. The case was sent back to the district court for further proceedings. Then on Tuesday, the Justice Department said that the census forms were being printed without the question, seemingly ending the fight over its inclusion. But the next day, DOJ reversed itself and said that it would still pursue the case.

    Give it a rest. You are being too literal for obvious reasons.

    Call it what you want, but I have never heard this court using the term "lyer". However, I use quite often to describe Trump.

    Someone else needs to give it a rest. They said the SC said Trump contrived and the legal definition of that was lying. I asked them to prove it. So either go away or prove it.
