for what being a good President ? Being intelligent, actually liking people and being a good role model and having good taste?

Donald S-Mouth Trump will never forgive Obama for besting him on every possible metric. The only occasion on which I've seen First Former Escort and Einstein Visa Fraud Melabia actually smile was when she was sitting next to Obama at GHWB's funeral, and she had the look of a woman who had not encountered a real man in a very long time.

She also smiled a lot around Justin Trudeau.

Chris Olsen's avatar

Yeah, she sure did. Both are quite different men than her husband.

SIM's avatar

For sure. Both Ivanka and Melania hit on Justin during Trump 1.0.

This is taxpayer money they’re spending on this. They really don’t care how they spend our money as long as it works for them.

I read Mr. Winnerman’s piece this morning. Scared the crap out of me! But totally appreciate the warning.

The radical left if by that you refer to the progressives- they are very much connected to the people at large. If you refer to the APAC funded democrats as radical left- again I disagree since they are more standard than they are radical.

Lev Parnas: "There is a radical left because I said so. If you disagree with me you are part of it. The base is not mobilized because some of you disagree with me on this."

Sorry, you sound like Trump. I can reel off a long list of radical right Republicans. Name names, people who are major players in the Democratic Party. Otherwise, this is just the time honored both-siderism of tired centrism.

That's because Parnas is a lot like Trump, personality wise.

George Steffanos's avatar

Although skeptical, I was willing to give Parnas the benefit of the doubt because a number of people whose opinions I respect, including the other three participants in this video, seem to trust him. But he sure sounded like a true Fetterman wannabe in this video.

If Parnas was running in my state/district I wouldn't even consider voting for him. His only qualification is that he's a convicted felon. We don't need more crooks in Congress.

I followed Parnas for several months and also saw him in lives with his cronies. A couple of his segments were so unhinged, I unsubscribed. To me ( and many others) he displays a lot of characteristics that I feel uncomfortable with: narcissistic tendencies, constant drama, vindictiveness, a need for constant attention, and manipulative behavior. The sort of person that I would stay well away from if he were in my orbit.

Good description of "Levitude." Parnas is famous for his unhinged meltdowns whenever he is criticized, which is often. The man does love drama. Now he blames the "radical left" because he had (another) run-in with one female journo. One can easily imagine Lev ending up back with the Republicans at some point after yet another meltdown.

SIM's avatar

Lev blows up and angrily melts down over any criticism, not a good trait for a guy who wants to be a politician.

SIM's avatar

Parnas is a slippery character who flies off the handle at odd moments. Lev seems to be moving toward a more Trumpian viewpoint with the “Radical Leftist” line. Who are these “radical leftists” that he is referring to? This is a bad sign, how long before Parnas becomes a “why I left the left” casualty?

Gutterdandy's avatar

Lev Parnas is verv vague, who are the "radical leftists" he has a problem with? "Radical left" is a Trumpist phrase, so Lev is tying himself to Trump by using it over and over again. Lev Parnas is the master of scoring own goals, he is a loose cannon for sure.

Seriously, cut these ties you have with LP. He’s extremely untrustworthy and is tainting the reputation of you and others you associate with on SS

Anneliese Larin's avatar

Yup - I Am a paid sub - to Ellie and blue amp - I won’t renew if they are shilling for LP - we have been lied to enough, don’t need to pay any more of the horrible price we have already paid for more.

This makes me VERY angry - indict the best President we have ever had (or darn close!)?

Aileen Cannon is incompetent, corrupt, and 100% beholden to Donald S-Mouth Trump. She and diGenova deserve the very harshest possible punishment once this fascist regime finally comes to an end. Plus, if S-Mouth is presumptively immune from prosecution, so is Obama.

Dawn Marie Galtieri's avatar

I think Lev is trying to remain valuable to these other Substackers. Where is the grand jury indictment? We already knew Bondi was going after Obama months ago.

SIM's avatar

Parnas is giving us more "Levitude!"

Dawn Marie Galtieri's avatar

But when are Waj and Ellie going to figure out that they don’t need him.

SIM's avatar

Lev is a bit of a loose cannon and he ends up scoring a lot of own goals.

MDL's avatar

Just because Lev Parnas says he has the inside scoop doesn't mean what he's hearing is necessarily true. I'll believe it when and if it happens. Speaking strictly for myself, It's not very helpful to know this ahead of time, as there's nothing that can be done to stop it. All this so-called reporting is nothing more than a platform for speculation and an opportunity for Lev Parnas to showcase all his inside knowledge; but especially to platform his campaign. And now he's an independent sucking up votes that could go to a Democrat who may actually have a shot at winning.

The Russia investigation that the current Sect of State reported was real and true that Russia helped Trump win. The bad part about all this B-S is that we hare having to pay for it all.

Do we really need Lev Parnas going after the so-called “Radical Left?” Who exactly is he referring to? It seems Lev is still fuming because a female journo associated with “the left” recently criticized him, causing him to completely lose it and to angrily melt down (again). Parnas has a very thin skin for a guy who wants to be a politician. How long before he moves all the way to the right?

Sounds like it could be the second Great Depression. Also, like people will need the money that could come from data centers, so ppl won’t be able to afford to say “no”.

He & his wife are BAD people.

Addy's avatar

It will NEVER go anywhere and he’s going to puss a bunch of people and galvanize democrats even more to come out and vote in November. Bring it!

It sounds like you’re describing that the CEOs are both insanely greedy, AND cowards
