> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > “Every Day Is a New Low in Trump’s White House” I’m imagining a camera fly through of the White House, grey-faced minions scurry, a chef weeps over well-done steak and ketchup, aides sit at a small table surrounded by crayons, glitter, and glue as they prepare an intelligence briefing… and the president lounges in a bathrobe devouring chicken wings and Fox and Friends, tweeting thumbs a flurry. Backing this scene Flogging Molly plays “It’s been the worst day since yesterday”. 😃 ---

As a bonus, he apparently introduced Graham, who got applause. Then, even though she was in his speech/notes, he snubbed Pelosi (who was also there). Probably afraid she’d get a standing ovation. ---

Related to the lack of applause in Munich, Lawrence O’Donnell just showed the official White House transcript of Pence’s speech on his show. Can you guess? The transcript inserted the comment “(Applause)” after Pence mentioned Trump’s greeting. ---

In the transcript of my life for tomorrow, after “Got out of bed,” I’m going to insert, “Won the Powerball, the Nobel Prize and a long, lingering kiss from Keira Knightley.” It’ll be just as real, and just as accurate. ---

" Personally, I think it’s big. If it happens, it changes the entire calculus in the Middle East – and not in any way to our benefit. Plus, it’s illegal. Not illegal that the Saudis want to build nuclear reactors for power generation – but the implementation that allows the Saudis to make their own power generation uranium and therefore puts them a small step away from enriching uranium for use in bombs. That’s what is illegal. Can you think of anything that will get Iran to quickly and fully abandon the nuclear agreement spearheaded by Kerry in 2015 that we’ve now pulled out of and is hanging by a thread thanks to the EU, than a nuclearized Saudi Arabia? I can’t. So, you know, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan and India all with nuclear capability in the Middle East… that should go well. I think people are exhausted and numb to the number of violations this “administration” commits on a daily basis, so serious stuff like this slips through with hardly a notice. You’re wise to pay attention to it. Rhetorical question: Is there anything that isn’t for sale to the detriment of our national interests by this criminal gang? I can see why Putin adores Trump. ---

Have some compassion. The Saudis NEED nuclear reactors! They don’t have any coal, so what else could they make electricity out of? ---

Also to be followed with, “But Hillary sold Uranium to the Russians!” I swear, there must be a to do list tacked up in the white house of all of the things they falsely accused the Democrats of doing that they are checking off one-by-one.
