"Take Her Out"

Lev is in more photos with Donald Trump than Eric Trump is.

He’s practically family.

But Donald Trump doesn't like Eric. He doesn't like Donald Jr. much either. On the other hand, he'd like to take Ivanka to bed (assuming he hasn't already, of course).
 
"Take her out. OK? Do it."

What does that actually mean? My knowledge of American English is not the greatest, but my understanding is that it does not mean sack her.

She was apparently put under illegal surveillance by "un-official" resources paid for by ? and on whose orders? followed by an instruction to "Take her out."

Shortly afterwards the Ambassador left Ukraine because she thought, "her security was threatened." By whom?

If you have five minutes research the names of Parnas and Fruman and especially look at who funded their trips to Ukraine and their connections to Giulliani and Charles Cucciardo. Parnas has known Trump for years as he sold real estate for him and later Parnas got into a number of fraud scams which obviously Trump had nothing at all to do with. :rolleyes:

Conclusions( so far).

1. Donald Trump picks his friends very very badly.

2. Follow the money, it's gunna trip more of these crooks up.
 
The president of the United States of America using the vernacular of a gangster is, apparently, not much of an issue. At least to his fans.
 
Not really. It's a beautiful morning. The temperature is lovely. Kitty Girl is romping in the flowers. I do have a little frost bite damage on the pentas and that kind of sucks but they'll grow over that.

Would it make you happy if I was angry? I know you guys live to analyze my life in detail. It brings joy to your otherwise dreary lives.

My reaction to the high levels of dignity Trump continually brings to the most powerful office in the world is something that does seem to cause a reaction among you. I wonder why that is. :rose:

My assessment appears to be accurate: it's okay for the president to speak like a gangster. Interesting. :)
 
It also shows what a coward he is--and how people just ignore him. She didn't get fired after this incident. According to Parnas, Trump told people to fire her five or six times without result. Trump had the power to pull her out of her post at any time, but he didn't have the balls to do it himself and it wasn't done for a couple of years after the first time he said he wanted her out.

Incidentally, career State Department employees are in a protected service. They can be reassigned but they can't be fired from their employment status without due process based on judged cause. She's still in the State Department now. She's been removed from the Ukraine position, but she's still at work at the State Department as an ambassador-level official.

She may still be in the State Department when Trump is jerked out of his current job. She'll certainly get a lot better press in history than he will.
Giuliani tried three times to get her fired, and failed. Then he texted Parnas to keep quiet about his failure.

And?

He is the President. He can fire her at will and there's not a dam thing wrong with it.

Agreed.

It amazes me that when the party changes with the executive
that they don't clean house to prevent this sort of "statecraft."

Anyone else getting the impression that in the eyes of the democrats the president, any president, should only do what his employees tell him to do? That the president should be a slave to the bureaucracy like the rest of us?
 
That only applies to Republicans.
Democrats feel they own the government
and if you poll the employees of government
you will find that that is close to the truth; they own the bureaucracy...

I've been in DC and I know that this is very close to the truth.
When your livelihood depends upon government
then your leanings are towards the party that
believes in ever larger government.
 
And?

He is the President. He can fire her at will and there's not a dam thing wrong with it.

Y'know something, Barrister Timmay? You have a point. Ambassadors DO serve at the pleasure of the president and CAN be removed at any time for any reason.

This brings up an interesting point, though: All Trump had to do was pick up the phone and call the Secretary of State and ask for her removal.

Instead, he got in touch with his personal lawyer (Rudy 911) and asked his (Rudy's) assistant Parnas to "take her out".

To me, that puts an altogether different spin on things. I understand though your intense desire to go full-SgtSchultz "I SEE NUTHINK!"

And? What evidence you got to support that fantasy?

Remember, in THIS COUNTRY the accused is presumed innocent until PROVEN guilty. So, trot that filly out and let's take a look at her.

Otherwise, STFU.
 
It's okay, everything is fine. Nothing to see here. All he meant was he wa ted her taken out to dinner and a movie. You know, as a reward for a job well done.
 
Reminds me of Pulp Fiction

"Boss wants me to take care of her while he's out of town."

"Take care of her?"

"No, you know, show her a good time."


Probably not an exact quote but close enough.

And that kinda family, you know THAT kind of family ... uses nondescript phrases when they want some one gone, ya know, sleepin' with da fishes kinda gone. Ya know , like 'take 'em out'. 'Get rid of 'em.'

Thank you for the explanation. I thought that when Trump asked that his business associate/friend/criminal, Parnas should 'take her out', he meant that she should be killed. Obviously, her fears for her security and my concerns were equally misplaced. :rolleyes:
