How has Former President Trump pissed you off today?

That’s a relief. I thought I was changing again.

The usual; heavy breathing, racism, and lies.

On the PBS Newshour tonight, Judy Woodruff asked Kellyanne Conway why Individual 1 mentioned Corey Booker, the only black male Senator’s name, and instead of answering the question, she said, “Senator Tim Scott is also black,” and Judy said, “you’re right, I meant only black male Democratic Senator.” And Kellyanne said, “I haven’t talked to him about it.”
The entire interview was infuriating.
Here’s the full transcript of the interview:

She really has learned from her master.

“I have heard”
“Some people”
“We have a young and fragile democracy”

I debated whether to start a new BREAKING NEWS! thread on this, 'cause it’s so danged important!!

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump Administration wants to change the definition of a showerhead to let more water flow, addressing a pet peeve of the president who complains he isn’t getting wet enough.

Publicly talking about the need to keep his hair “perfect,” President Donald Trump has made increasing water flow and dialing back long held appliance conservation standards — from light bulbs to toilets to dishwashers — a personal issue.

But consumer and conservation groups said the Department of Energy’s proposed loosening of a 28-year-old energy law that includes appliance standards is silly, unnecessary and wasteful, especially as the West bakes through a historic two-decade-long megadrought.

My bold.

Oh, I very much beg to differ. He is all wet.

The need to keep his hair perfect??? Are you fucking kidding me? :scream: By all means, let’s have a new law or regulation (or remove an existing one-- especially if it has Obummer’s stank all over it) to address every one of trump’s pet peeves.

You really can’t make this shit up.

I’m having a mental image of Trump being hit with a speeding stream of water from a firehose…

Pardon me while I have it a few more times.

Yes. That is exactly the problem with his hair. It doesn’t get wet enough.

He wants his hair to be perfect? Has he seen his hair?

Why not? He does.

When I saw that today on Google News, I swore it had to be a joke. Joke, parody, satire… Gotta be… Holy Merde!

Wonkette, as expected, treats this with all the gravity it deserves:

The Trump administration is looking to ease environmental rules on shower heads — not because they are unnecessary, but because Donald Trump thinks that a lack of water pressure is what is making his “beautiful” hair look bad.

Trump has been whining about showers, sinks, dishwashers and toilets for at least a few years now — he’s claimed that if you buy a new faucet, no water comes out, that no water comes out when you take a shower, that you have to flush a toilet four or five times to get it to work, that dishwashers don’t work, and that this is all because of evil regulations meant to preserve water use for everyone. In January, Trump made promises to get rid of these restrictions to a crowd in Milwaukee.

Via GEN:

“You go into a shower, and I have this beautiful head of hair, I need a lot of water. I need water. You go into the shower, right? You turn on the water, drip, drip, drip. I called the guy, ‘Something wrong with this?’ ‘No, sir. It’s just the restrictor,’” he said. “So you’re in there five times longer than you’re supposed to be. You use probably more water and it’s a very unpleasant experience, right? So we’re getting rid of the restrictors. You’re going to have full shower flow. Full sink.”

And in December, he promised another crowd (also in Milwaukee) that they would no longer have to run their dishwashers 10, 15 times.

“I’m also approving new dishwashers that give you more water so you can actually wash and rinse your dishes without having to do it 10 times or five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10. Anybody have a new dishwasher? I’m sorry for that. I’m sorry for that. It’s worthless. They give you so little water. Do you ever see it? Air comes out? So little water,” he said at the December rally in Milwaukee.

At a meeting with business leaders also in December, Trump claimed that people were flushing toilets 10-15 times, because of regulations.

“We have a situation where we’re looking very strongly at sinks and showers and other elements of bathrooms where you turn the faucet on — and in areas where there’s tremendous amounts of water, where the water rushes out to sea because you could never handle it, and you don’t get any water,” the President said during a roundtable with small business leaders about deregulatory actions.

“You turn on the faucet and you don’t get any water. They take a shower and water comes dripping out. Just dripping out, very quietly dripping out,” the President continued, lowering his voice as he spoke about the drips. “People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once.”

Alas, it’s gotten nowhere, likely because outside of California and Hawaii, where they have droughts, these are not actual problems for anyone and no one has ever even heard of running a dishwasher more than once.

Maybe use less polyurethane?

Wait, what…?

Betsy Crocker says: Have cake!

But wait; there’s more (at the link)…

“Betsy Crocker,” heh.

That’s a great piece; it goes on to discuss the fines that will be levied on those who do not make delicious cake (despite no recipe or ingredients being available).

The only thing missing might be mention of Betsy cutting short the Q&A to check on the progress of construction on her fourth yacht…

The jackass is back onto his birther bullshit:

“I heard it today — that she doesn’t meet the requirements,” Trump said, complimenting Eastman as “a very highly qualified, very talented lawyer.” He added that he had “no idea” if the argument was correct.

Harris was born in Oakland, California, which happens to be in the United States of America.

Interesting how they fail to mention that John C. Eastman chairs the board of a group opposing gay marriage and is on the board of directors of another group which tries to disenfranchise voters.

Apologizes BUT…

“We’re sorry that we helped this person spread this lie, but we’re going to continue to do so anyway.”

:face_with_raised_eyebrow:

So the “birther” lie stays, and the mot-quite-a-retraction gets lost or forgotten.

And some idjits will be able to triumphantly say, “Look, even Newsweek reported it!”
