If, say, Chelsea Clinton had had these kinds of contacts with, oh, I don’t know, Chinese govt. representatives late last year, Congressional Republicans’ hair would be on fire.

I know, right?

Why are the Dems So fucking quiet? If they’re making more noise than I can tell from reading th’ papers and internet, why isn’t that damned Liberal Media reporting on it?

Trump tells the British PM he won’t visit the UK until he can be assured a warmer welcome, soooo I guess that means he’ll never see that scepter’d isle again: [https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/07/17/trump-reportedly-asked-may-to-fix-warm-welcome-for-him-in-britain/23034285/](https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/07/17/trump-reportedly-asked-may-to-fix-warm-welcome-for-him-in-britain/23034285/)

I’m sure, given the chance, they could give him a _very_ warm welcome indeed.

Don’t feel bad, UK, he doesn’t visit Chicago either, and we get by. Chin up, and other English sounding words of encouragement to you!

I think the Queen dodged a bullet on this one. I’ve always said that if Trump visits, the Queen will likely be ill that day, and unable to receive him.

I’d pay good money to see her punch him right in the mouth. A good solid haymaker.

I saw an interview last night with some of the players who said, essentially, that they’re not happy about it but the money on the women’s circuit is so little for most of them that they can’t afford to skip an event.

Which, you know, fair enough. People gotta eat.

I’d pay money to see him hustling down a corridor of Buckingham palace with a couple [corgis](http://www.pwcorgiclubgs.org/2017-spring-herding-instinct-test.html) nipping at his heels.

Goddamn I’m tired of all this winning. Does anyone, even Republicans, believe that he’s trying to do the best thing for the American people? He just doesn’t give a shit. He wants that “win” over Obama so badly he can taste it. The current abortion of a bill doesn’t deliver on any of his campaign promises about healthcare, but his brainless supporters just smile and lick his ass. Dickheads.

> The day after the article’s publication, apparently at the urging of Rebekah Mercer, a Republican donor who threw her weight behind Trump during the election, Trump reportedly called a meeting with his top staff at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf club. The meeting, the Daily Mail said, included Manafort, Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, former Mayor Rudy Giuliani of New York, former Fox News chief Roger Ailes, and Manafort’s deputy Rick Gates.
