If the Mexicans aren’t going to pay for the wall, as he promised us they would, it only serves 'em right.

Well, as one of the comments on the signatures clip points out, DJT always refers to Trudeau as “Justin”. And to Macron as “Emma Nu Ahl” and so forth. It’s one of his favorite, repeat, are-you-five-years-old putdowns, refering to other people by firstname while expecting them to call him “Mister”. I don’t think I’ll ever meet the guy, so help me God, but I might call him that. Exactly that. “Mister”, with nothing behind.

Remember how he SEETHED every time Hillary called him “Donald” during the debates? But he had no right to an honorific from government work, and since she knew him socially, she wasn’t going to elevate him above her. Can you imagine the ragestorm he unleashed on his people after that debate? That a woman dared disrespect him so openly on live national tv? Especially (in his plaque-ridden brain) after he treated her so well?

And that some awkwardness at the funeral today. I love her even more not even looking in his direction.

I feel like every single person in that room except him was thinking “It should be Donald in that casket.” Every. Single. One. Especially Melania, not excepting her.

I don’t know about you but I was Democratic precinct chair for precinct 3029 here in San Antonio, and I organized phone banks, blockwalking, and other GOTV stuff for the general slate of Democratic candidates while my wife worked on 2 Democratic judges campaigns doing the same stuff. I drove people to the polls, I made sure they had stickers, I asked about Dem friends who needed assistance. I did a lot more.

The Democrats finished (in our elections):

D-R  
8-3 State Reps  
6-0 Judges (including DA)  
3-2 US Reps  
10-5 District judges (All contested races went to D’s, the 5 R’s ran unopposed)  
3-1 Justice of the Peace

In our Texas county, Dems swamped Republicans by 58%-40%, we even voted against Greg Abbott and Dan Patrick. More Dems voted in 2018 than D&R voted in total in 2014.

That’s what I did. What did you do, other than… how did you put it… “express outrage on the SDMB”? In other words… who’s the fucking “pussy”, Asahi?

Ignoring the actual goals of the current French protests - which I understand are not necessarily leftist in nature - my guess is that our would-be Enjolras is looking at the hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets and going toe-to-toe with the police and thinking, “Why can’t the American left do that?”

Candidates that I donated money to and supported went 6-for-6 on my ballot. In two cases Democrats unseated Republican incumbents. Some of my support involved expressing outrage on social media.

I didn’t do as much as you but I still feel I made a difference.

I think this might be the most outrageous (and believable) story yet.

Regarding the looming national debt crisis:

> [@](#):
>
> Sources close to the president say he has repeatedly shrugged it off, implying that he doesn’t have to worry about the money owed to America’s creditors—currently about $21 trillion—because he won’t be around to shoulder the blame when it becomes even more untenable.
> 
> The friction came to a head in early 2017 when senior officials offered Trump charts and graphics laying out the numbers and showing a “hockey stick” spike in the national debt in the not-too-distant future. In response, Trump noted that the data suggested the debt would reach a critical mass only after his possible second term in office.
> 
> “Yeah, but I won’t be here,” the president bluntly said, according to a source who was in the room when Trump made this comment during discussions on the debt.

In his mind, what actually HAPPENS (i.e. what the rest of us call “reality” or sometimes “events”) doesn’t matter. Blame is ALL that matters and he ain’t gettin’ any.

Also keep in mind that Trump wants credit for anything that is successful within his vicinity, whether or not he had anything to do with it. Maybe with Trump, we could call this antiblame. Look at all the things Trump puts his name on. Although, after Mueller sends Donald, Jr. to prison, Sr. might regret that.

Trump: “Don Jr.? I hardly know the guy. I think he got me coffee once or twice.”
