And you keep using Trump Derangement Syndrome in public. Ignore the way people laugh at you every time you say it.

But his ego comes through even in this one. The important thing to tell the children is that Trump respected their father and thought he was a great hero.

Excellent. 🙂

Uh-mazing. And that recording of a completely different phone call has exactly what to do with the call during which he made insensitive remarks? What does it prove exactly? You have to have the vocabulary of a seven year old to use a single word multiple times to characterize the fallen soldier. He couldn’t bother to recount an example of the soldier’s \*\*\*amazing \*\*\* character to illustrate how \*\*\*amazing \*\*\*he was. I would assume if you really cared, you might use specific examples in your condolences. He’s just such an \*\*\*amazing \*\*\*wordsmith. I really struggle to understand why you think that recording makes Trump look good. It really only makes him look like he can sometimes perform his duties without royally fucking it up, but doesn’t erase the time he actually fucks it up by telling a widow the deceased knew what he was getting into. \*\*Amazing \*\*in its tone-deafness.

When you combine it with General Kelly’s remarks, it makes the TDS-addled detractors look like political hacks who are dancing on graves. Which is exactly what they are, and anyone who is not a blind partisan can see it.

Thanks for boosting Trump’s image. Every stupid hatred eruption from the left just contributes to it.

Thanks…I thought he was referring to The Daily Show.

Ah, I see. No true Scotsman. So if I don’t agree with you, I’m a “blind partisan.” Or maybe your boy is just a fucking moron, to borrow a phrase of one of his own appointees.

Which, ironically, **Okra** is blind to.

Please don’t wish for this. People die from head injuries like that. Trump deserves to spend the longest time in jail that the law and jury allows, and to know his estate has been stripped from his entire felonious family.

Any why? Because, like his hero Donald, he loves the attention. And also like Donald, he gets plenty of it.

Imagine a Fantasyland where everyone ignored **Okra** and Donald Trump.

Pretty sure that’s little more than hyperbole in response to [Trump’s “don’t be too nice” speech](https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2017-07-28/trump-to-police-dont-be-too-nice).

It does seem as though the grandmother of the devil’s main concern is that trump not die before seeing his family and fortune destroyed. Not so much a concern for his actual health.

Probably sarcastic was the wrong word, but I read **The Devil’s Grandmother** ’s post as saying, “Don’t risk killing him quickly. Let him live and suffer!”
