I assume the time it took to hammer it out is because he’s never learned touch-typing and has to hunt and peck for each key every time he tweets.

I must agree: Fox News is a terrible, costly and dangerous disgrace.

It’s terrifying to think of what might happen if Trump is faced with an actual crisis.

Like Daddy Fred giving him money, Daddy Barack gave him a healthy economy and minimal conflict internationally. All the incompetent moron has to do is golf all day and finish out his one term without fucking it all up. Has Trump ever been in a situation where he didn’t start on third base? Has he ever actually scored?

I don’t think the “safety and security of our nation” is the judiciary’s mission statement. I think it has more to do with interpreting the law.

Donald Trump was born on third base and thinks he scored a touchdown.

The national average actually dipped below $2 in early 2016. It’s currently $2.59.

Why does Trump hate America so much?

Gas is $3.78 near us, but this is Hawaii. Don’t have a car anyway.

He starts at third base and immediately starts running – well, waddling – toward second.

Remember when he tweeted out his anti-transgender policy and the first tweet in the series had the Pentagon brass spent an uneasy nine minutes thinking that he was about to start a war somewhere?

Born on third base? What is “third base”? Is that not the hands in the other person’s pants stage? He was born groping?

I’m pretty sure that at the time he was being born his hands were in contact with a vagina.

Oh, shut up about your stupid wall already:

> Republicans and Democrats MUST come together, finally, with a major Border Security package, which will include funding for the Wall. After 40 years of talk, it is finally time for action. Fix the Border, for once and for all, NOW!

IMO, the new House ought to attach a “construction of the wall is authorized upon receipt of full funding from Mexico” provision to each bill just to troll the Troll in Chief.

I don’t know. More and more I’m wondering if he was created in a lab, somewhere in the bowels of Siberia…

I just read this article a few days ago:

**Trump Fans Sink Savings Into ‘Iraqi Dinar’ Scam**

> **[Trump Fans Sink Savings Into ‘Iraqi Dinar’ Scam](https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-fans-sink-savings-into-iraqi-dinar-scam)**
>
> The president’s true believers are convinced he’s going to make them millionaires with Iraqi currency.

This pretty much sums up the critical thinking abilities of hard-core Trumpsters:

> [@](#):
>
> The president’s true believers are convinced he’s going to make them millionaires with Iraqi currency.

> [@](#):
>
> The currency is nearly worthless outside of Iraq, but Kotseos bought millions of dinars in April, after watching a video of President Trump at a 2017 press conference. In the clip, Trump says, with characteristic vagueness, that all currencies will soon “be on a level playing field.”
> 
> In reality, Trump was talking about trade imbalances with China. But like other Trump supporters who have fallen into the dinar investment scam, which has existed since at least 2012, Kotseos interpreted Trump’s rambling statement as proof that the Iraqi dinar would soon be worth as much or even more than the dollar, making anyone who had been smart enough to buy in early a millionaire.
> 
> “I love my president, and I was like, ‘Oh my God,’” Kotseos told The Daily Beast.
