Butt-Hurt Trump Takes to Twitter Again (Part 1)

This was actually a pretty deep question.

I’m trying to understand how Trump would think poverty-level citizens of North Korea would have automobiles. You have to consider what Trump thinks is normal. Trump typically travels by motorcade and assumes that KJU does too. There’s a lot of cars in the motorcade, because that’s how world leaders roll. Thus, there’s a long line at the gas station because the entire motorcade has to refill. Trump never has to deal with an empty tank, because there’s always some underling who takes care of it. Trump is being smug that American has more gas stations than NK.

OK, in trying to think like Trump, I have thoroughly confused the fuck out of myself. That’s a scary world and I ain’t going back.

Pretty sure that Trumps motorcade does not pull into the local Shell station. Anything over 50 miles goes by Marine One.

The reason Trump doesn’t understand that everyone in NK doesn’t have a car is because he’s a moron. Nothing more, nothing less.

Of course, he got the idea from Fox News. The story ran in April, though…but that doesn’t matter to Trump when he gets going on a Twitter roll.

Apparently some private citizens do have a need for gasoline … usually for business purposes like taxicabs or delivering goods. And when the supply drops, the government takes everything they want and cuts the supply to individuals and businesses . Then the hoarding and pricing gouging sets in.

But Trump really can’t be allowed to make up stupid nicknames for hostile world leaders ( or any world leaders )- I mean, he’s petty and stupid and orange and he DID it already - but someone’s gotta figure out how to stop him. Maybe all the other world leaders could write Congress and ask them to do something already

And until this weekend he’s been a good little boy for over two weeks. But I’m afraid that means he’s bottled up two whole weeks worth of rambling craziness that’s going to come pouring out now that the dam has been breached. And John Kelly is discovering that controlling Trump is like trying to hold back the tides with the power of your mind. They may recede and you may declare victory but that just means they’re going to come crashing back in soon.

And he’s going to speak to the UN on Tuesday. Word seems to be that he’s going to whine about how mean and unfair the other countries are to us. Bannon must’ve gotten Trumps new cell number, Kelly’s going to have to change it again…if he survives the week.

I think it’s clear by now that no one can or will stop him from doing anything he wants to do. No one will bell the cat.

“Long gas lines”? Er, he does know that the average North Korean is lucky to have a functional bicycle, right?

Any question about Trump that includes the phrase “he does know…right?” is just… well… :smack:

Well, this is a guy who was surprised to learn that Abraham Lincoln was a Republican and that France is America’s oldest ally, So…

[Trump supporter] You loser libtards need to realize when Trump is using 5 dimensional sarcasm! Of course he doesn’t really believe that after it’s been pointed out to be absurdly false!![TS]

Frederick Douglass told him on the phone the other day that all North Koreans own cars. TWO cars, in fact.

less so after watching this.

Ye gads, I love Star Trek and everything connected, but I could have gone my whole life without seeing that… that video.

I’m depressed knowing those tweets of the cheetos received so many likes. How many fucked up Americans are there? Too many apparently.

I’d be very happy to see Bryan Cranston recreate this particular gem.

Aw, c’mon! They don’t make camp like that anymore. Or at least, they don’t take camp like that *that *seriously anymore.

Looks like Kelly accidentally left Donnie’s phone where Two Scoops could find it. The Orangutan in Chief is trying to make up for lost time with it. :smack:

Trumpy thinks the North Korea situation is Hillary’s fault.

So really, it’s Obama’s fault. Thanks, Obama! :smack:

Actually no, but sarcasm duly noted. :smiley:

If my memory hasn’t gone to shit, George W Bush decided North Korea was not going to demand the old “give us stuff or we’ll be bad” bullshit and get away with it anymore. As did Clinton, Obama, and it seems like everybody else, in the history of always.

They (NK) were using the threat of acting like an asshole, as a form of extortion. And then when they DID get stuff, they’d break the deal and be assholes anyway.

Both Obama and Bush had choice words. Obama at first took a “conciliatory” route, but ultimately returned to sanctions and tough talk.

The Bush administration, as well as Japan, South Korea, China and Russia, got the North to agree to and start holding six-party talks in August 2003 that eventually led to an agreement to cease nuclear testing in 2007. In exchange, the North would receive 950,000 metric tons of fuel oil or economic aid worth the same.
And as Bush was preparing to leave the White House, he even wrote a personal letter to then-leader Kim Jong Il, hoping that the deal would stay in place. Still, in 2009, the North launched a rocket and the agreement fell apart.

Like Bush, Clinton too came close to halting the North’s nuclear programs in 1994. In October of that year, about three months after Kim Sung Il died and Kim Jong Il had yet to formally take power, Clinton managed to strike a deal that would give the North oil and promised financing worth $4 billion—with the South, Japan, Russia, Germany and the U.S. each chipping in—to build light-water nuclear reactors that would be constructed in a way to make difficult converting waste into bomb materials. And that went to shit too.

You can’t deal with those assholes. Best to just quarantine them.

If it were up to me, I’d hack into their shit and direct their missiles to start landing on Li’l Kim’s fucking house.

You are wrong there. Trump knows that no one until him has been able to deal with NK. He has had many stern talkings to them, increased sanctions, and even had the gall to call their leader “Rocket Man”! And look at the results and success: Since Trump’s inauguration there have been ONLY 22 missiles fired from NK. There were 24 fired in 2016 so he has limited them to far less than under OBAMA. You can bet the farm that Rocket Man is done for the year.

Standing ovations all around!

I’d rather be known to the world as Rocket Man than Barking Dog:

It feels like only yesterday when we had threads here shortly after Trump was elected and a few people, including myself, worried (although I thought it unlikely) that Trump might start a nuclear war. And we were mocked for that. It was ridiculous we were told. Not even Trump is that incompetent! Oh how I wish we lived in a world where there really was no chance Trump might start a nuclear war.

I think Bluster Boy would’ve been better.
