Well, it’s true enough from the standpoint that at various points the Nat Guard were indeed walking. In a park.

And don’t forget the “walk on private property to desecrate the church there”.

Making fun of Trump’s tweets? Don’t you know that Trump’s DoJ has sued in federal court to treat these tweets as official U.S. government pronouncements?

Russia is getting Trump to say stupid shit just for the LOL.

Waiting for “The Moon is made of cheese, many people are saying that.”

Doesn’t matter if it goes anywhere, let alone into a courtroom. The important thing is that FOX viewers saw him sticking [del]it to[/del] up for them! Yeah, you tell that big nasty CNN where to get off!! If it wins a coupla votes, then it was worth it.

The problem here is that some of the CFSG’s staffers have access to the twitter account and occasionally send out grammatically correct and lucid tweets under the @realdumpsterfire #moron #adultdiaperswhome byline.

Early on, a number of government departments (DoD specifically) rightly kicked back with the note that, “We don’t take direction or orders from tweets; there are procedures in place to provide notifications.” While in quotation marks, just a paraphrase by me.

I could see the drooling idiot using the, “It wasn’t me” defense in the future.

It seems that every minute of every day with Trump is just more “oh shit what the fuck  
is it now”.

He needs to choke on a “hamberder” and die already.

After Trump’s minimally embarrassing video of him gingerly walking down a ramp after his West Point Address - which most people would have forgotten about by later this afternoon - he decided he needed to clear the air. This is an actual Tweet from the president of our country. I literally checked three times to make sure I wasn’t responding to a parody account.

On the contrary; [the National Guard unlike the police were very unhappy](https://www.politico.com/news/2020/06/09/national-guard-protests-309932) about getting dragged into this mess. It was a serious blow to their morale.

I watched the video of his ramp walk and it seems he measures feet in the same way he measures…well other things. Or so I’ve heard.

I’m not surprised, after all, you can be asleep in your bed and they will come in and shoot you - and get away with it. Even if they did a no-knock on the WRONG HOUSE.

So of course they can “get you” on your front steps. For a fucking photo op by Bunkerbitch McBonespurs

I figured with the _tears in their eyes_ and _sir_ parts I wouldn’t need a sarcasm tag.

I see I was wrong.

I can relate to Napsalone Boneyspurs in a couple ways. First, I never learned in the Disco Era how to gracefully move in 3" heels. Then again, he’s had decades to practice.

Second, I also have trouble drinking one-handed, but here I have a stroke to blame. Maybe Don should admit his so he can dribble without fear of ridicule.
