Yeah, I’d have gone for Helen Mirren.
You would if she’d let you, you slut!
That’s not the half of it.
Steven Bannon (Trump’s brain?) arranged for Nigel Farage and a man named Raheem Kassam to have a photo-op with him in Trump Tower. This was Bannon The Nazi, Trump’s “golden boy”.
Kassam is a Breitbart writer and former Farage aide who told Nicola Sturgeon, the First Minister of Scotland, to “tape her mouth shut – and her legs, so she can’t reproduce”. First Minister Sturgeon had suffered a devastating miscarriage and lost a child.
No snark intended, Steve1, but if you’re gonna say somebody said something that loathsome, you gotta cite it.
ETA: It Googles. There’s a hit there that suggests Blightbart defended him on it, but I ain’t touching it. Mental hygiene. So, maybe not.
Scrolling up, I notice that someone quoted Drunky Smurf addressing me. I don’t know what he said, as I don’t read what the guy writes. However, apparently I was remiss in not informing him that he is on my ignore list, and thus I will not read what he says.
He is basically useless to this board. He doesn’t even work as the type of person you need to try and understand. You’re probably getting too drunk for your own good, seeing as you become too incoherent at times. But, hey, it’s your life, and you can do what you want.
I’ve decided to focus more on convincing those that are open to being convinced, and not the people who have been here for years but still haven’t changed their tune.
The problem is, no one really cared about the scandal news even before the tweet. Yeah, it was bad, but it was something we already knew would happen.
I don’t think you can force people to care about things they don’t care about. If this is what they care about, then I think we should use this. It’s him trying to destroy freedom of speech, again. It’s him showing how he can’t handle the job. He actually said that the theater should be a safe space–that’s really useful against his followers who hate safe spaces.
I’m not saying we ignore these other things. I’m saying we have to pay attention to what people think is important. Literally anything can be a weapon against him.
And, in the meantime, we need to be able to keep our spirits up, and laughter can help with that.
HTH.
Yeah, I forgot to link a cite. But after many years of “on-and-off” here, I’ve learned that linking a cite is useless. The “Noise Machine” guys here (you know who) are still puking up the same right wing borderline Nazi (oops sorry alt right) bullshit they always have, and facts have fuck all to do with anything.
I agree with this. Most Americans want Trump to STFU with the tweets, and it’s one of the only things that seems to bother my conservative friends on Facebook right now.
Maybe this is Trump’s secret plan to defeat ISIS.
He’s gonna tweet them to death.
Well, it’s hard for them to deny or refute something that came directly from the Whiny Bitch In Chief’s own tiny unmanly little troll fingers.
Trump is tweeting today that the only reason he lost the popular vote is due to millions of people voting illegally.
At least the press has stopped beating around the bush and is finally just calling him a liar:
CNN: Trump falsely claims ‘millions of people who voted illegally’ cost him popular vote
NY Times: President-elect Donald J. Trump said on Sunday that he had fallen short in the popular vote in the general election only because millions of people had voted illegally, leveling his claim — despite the absence of any such evidence — as part of a daylong storm of Twitter posts voicing anger about a three-state recount push.
Washington Post: Trump makes baseless claim that millions ‘voted illegally’ for Clinton
It’s a mystery why this recount would make Trump so angry. Even Clinton’s team admits it’s extremely unlikely to come to anything. But it’s really gotten under his skin, and when something gets under this piece of filth’s skin, he Tweets up a storm.
Whiny douchebag is whiny.
4 years of this, we’re in for.
I hope the 26% of eligible voters who voted for him are happy.
I mean, even if his statistically impossible claim were true, his supporters are still nowhere near the majority they think they are.
Why the hell doesn’t someone who cares about him sit him down, say WTF is WRONG with you, and take away his twitter account?
He’s crying because the larger the number of votes for Clinton, the less he is able to claim some sort of mandate.
[Trump replies, with a vaguely effeminate cobra-like gesture]
“You’re fired.”
[/Trump replies, with a vaguely effeminate cobra-like gesture]
He may not fire Ivanka…maybe not one of his other spawn…seriously, I said this during the election - I would have been appalled if my father was doing any of this crap. Discreet word with his doctor, gently taking away his electronics, whatever it takes.
ETA Even Kellyanne Conway ralized he had to be handled like a toddler.
