We need to talk about Donald: cursing and swearing allowed

Hopefully it worked. I feel like an executioner who missed his first swing with the axe...

Got 'im!

That second swing worked like a treat!

UPDATED--Is President Donald Trump aware residents of the U.S. Virgin Islands are, in fact, Americans? It's unclear.

In a speech Friday, Trump said he'd recently "met with the president of the Virgin Islands" to discuss the recent hurricanes that have devastated Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico and the island.

But Trump could not have spoken to the "president of the Virgin Islands" because, of course, he is the president of the U.S. Virgin Islands, whose residents are U.S. citizens.

Dumb as dogshit...

An insult to dog shit.

[Scot Dutchy]

It is an insult to the dumb. He is beyond dumbness.

[JimC]

OK, OK, dumber than dogshit!

[Scot Dutchy]

You cant say 'dumb as dogshit' as that requires Trump's level of dumbness to be registered on a scale of comparison which of course is impossible. His dumbness does not hit any scale. It is a sort of dumbness infinitum. It will never reach the bottom.

I'd say 'what a moron', except I've known actual morons who were a lot brighter than that.

Trump address annual hate summit where these flyers were handed out to attendees.



Trump said, "We're bring moral clarity back to this nation."

Remember when Trump said he'd protect LGBT?


I remember.

Trump is the Mussolini of our times. What he represents is not the tyranny born of a firm or fixed philosophy or ideology -- as Nazism or Stalinism were -- but a tyranny of rhetoric servicing a narrative that always has him at the apex of everyone's attention.

Bannon says he's only got a 30% chance of going full term - which you could read as 70% chance of impeachment or removal on health grounds.

[Animavore]

Heh. Remember when a particularly naive, Trump supporting idiot on this site said Trump wasn't a Christian President?

Draining the swamp into his executive branch

As a top executive at AccuWeather, Barry Myers has pushed for limits on the kinds of products that the National Weather Service offers to the public, saying they offered unfair competition to his industry.

Now, President Donald Trump's nomination of Myers to lead the weather service's parent agency could allow him to make those kinds of restrictions mandatory — to the benefit of his family-run forecasting company.

Bigly unqualified, learned all he knows from TV, does not understand how politics works:
No occupant of the Oval Office has ever shared the average person’s disinterest in policy, parliamentary procedure, and the rudiments of American civics to the extent that Trump does. He is America’s first “low-information voter” president.

This was surely one source of his appeal on the campaign trail. The candidate spoke about politics like a regular Joe. Which is to say, like someone who doesn’t know much about politics but heard (or misheard) an outrageous thing about “Obummer” on Hannity last night. Jeb Bush read white papers, gave speeches at D.C. think tanks. Donald Trump watched Fox & Friends and shouted at his television. The billionaire might live in material conditions more opulent than his supporters could ever imagine. But unlike every other candidate in the GOP primary, in one small — but real and visceral — sense, Trump and the Republican base lived in the same world.

But if blithe ignorance about politics and mindless faith in the claims of right-wing pundits worked for Trump as a candidate, they’ve proven less effective for him as a president.

So, when Paul Ryan wanted Trump to start his presidency with Obamacare repeal, he said yes. After all, Obamacare was a disaster. It was collapsing. Everyone hated it! And the Republicans in Congress had been waiting seven years to replace it with something really terrific, and patient-centered, and freedom-enhancing. It would take a few days — weeks, tops — and the people would love it.

“I thought that when I won I would go to the Oval Office, sit down at my desk, and there would be a health-care bill on my desk — to be honest,” Trump said in September. “It hasn’t worked out that way.”

Instead, Trump spent his entire “honeymoon” period (such as it was) shouting from the sidelines as Ryan and Mitch McConnell tried and failed to pass the most unpopular pieces of legislation in modern American history — bills that would break every substantive promise Trump had made to his voters on health care — over and over again.
