I feel sorry for Scaramooch not-at-all.
I asked the question in the Clusterfuck thread.
It is answered here:
If Trump ever held an actual press conference, I’m sure a reporter would ask the burning question: “Then why did you hire him?” I guess that’s why Trump doesn’t hold press conferences.
apparently 60 million americans.
Obviously, Scaramucci was not properly vetted by the media.
We’ve already got a gigantic atoll, the subject of this thread, and hardly need another.
One of these days you’re going to have to do something about that speech impediment…
COTUS (the Coward of the United States) has now backed off of any gun control after “consulting” with La Pierre, the head knuckle-dragger of the NRA. Spineless motherfucker.
Surprising me not in the least.
Trump was no doubt surprised that the NRA was opposed - who knew they had strong opinions on the subject?
Kudos to La Pierre on his timing - as always, the last one to talk to the CFSG wins.
Yep. I would’ve bet thousands of dollars that Trump would not lift his very tiny, minuscule, little pinky to advance any sort of gun control after the latest rounds of gun massacres.
According to the Daily Beast, the guy with the concentration ability of a goldfish has forgotten about the issue.
Which will work until it happens again. As is so often the case, the good news and the bad news are the same news. Crazy as a duck on acid. The brown acid.
That’s an insult to ducks everywhere.
Or a compliment to the brown acid.
Still, it’s good to know there’s somebody that Trump will listen to.
Maybe we could get La Pierre to tell Trump how tariffs work. But it’s probably better to hold him in reserve in case we need to stop Trump from starting a war.
Trump’s election strategy is this: if he can get 100% turnout of his 40% base, vs. a Democrat’s 65% turnout of their 60% support…he wins. So everything he does between now and the election will be designed to fire up the base. And since his base also contains a not-insignificant number of gun nuts and white supremacists, he will do nothing that will make them think about not going to the polls. He can’t afford to disillusion any of his deplorables.

Individual 1: “any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat” are either uninformed or show “great disloyalty.”
Trump: Jewish people who vote Democratic show 'great disloyalty'?
Obviously this has nothing to do with actually trying to persuade Jewish people to vote for him, since Jews are a minuscule percentage of the US population and are mostly clustered in solidly blue areas anyway. I agree with jsc1953 that this is all about “firing up the base”, specifically stoking anger against “disloyal Jews”.
I wonder how many of the people who are, for instance, gleefully calling Ilhan Omar an anti-Semite every chance they get on the basis of a few stupid and insensitive remarks about “Benjamins” and the like are going to get equally outraged about Trump’s blatant invoking of classic anti-Semitic tropes about Jewish “disloyalty”.
We know Jews can’t be real Americans, because they are only loyal to their own kind. Their own stinkin’ usurious, money-grubbing, media-owning, putting-Christian-blood-in-the matzoh kind.
Likewise the Cathlicks, ring-kissers who owe their allegiance only to da Pope a Rome.
Yeah, right-wingers are the TRUE enemies of xenophobia. Keep piling on those brown congresswomen.
