Their strong suit is clearly grifting and a near fanatical devotion to the Orange One.
Their TWO strong suits are clear grifting, fraud, and a near fanatical devotion to the Orange One.
Their THREE strong suits are…well, I think you get the picture
Hm! They are made of harder stuff! Cardinal Fang? Fetch…THE TANNING BED!
There was a meme that went around (that I can’t currently find) after Bin Ladin’s death that featured how the different news organizations would report the news.
MSNBC: Obama has Seal Team Six assassinate 9/11 architect
CNN: Bin Ladin dead in military raid, Pentagon says
FOX NEWS: Obama kills elderly man on dialysis.
Love it!
They are just giddy with excitement, being in the great man’s presence.
He’s a regular guy who’s just like them and eats at Dairy Queen. He is also so rich and sophisticated that he doesn’t know what is on the menu at Dairy Queen, and that is their goal in life (plus marrying a soft-porn model from Eastern Europe).
It’s a very minor thing out of everything trump and his minions and followers have done, but it’s so strange to me that anyone would laugh at that. Do they not know that Blizzards have been around since 1985? It’s not a crazy, new-fangled thing that nobody ever heard of before. I thought he had heard of everything before anyone else ever heard of it. 
They don’t really think it’s hilarious, but whenever the Dear Leader says something that is utterly out of touch or moronic, they feel the need to paint it as a joke. If the Dear Leader makes a joke, you must laugh. He who laughs loudest is the most loyal.
'What the hell is a Blizzard? Nobody’s ever heard of them! But I’m telling you about them. They’re something I created when I was a small boy. Apparently, someone heard me talking about putting cookies in ice cream, and now here we are! And I have to tell you; When our maid made these for me, my friends all said, ‘Sir…’ (they all called me ‘Sir’, even back then) ‘Sir, these are the best! Thank you so much for inventing this wonderful treat!’
What, no tears in their eyes?
Well, they weren’t Big Strong Men when they were little boys.
It doesn’t really matter what the thing is it fits the form of a “funny because its true” aphorism that they are used to hearing and so they respond accordingly. What they are hearing is “These kids with all their new fangled stuff. everything’s changing so fast”. It doesn’t matter that the Blizzards been around for almost 40 years, they know the message that he is trying to convey and they laugh at that.
On the other hand for someone who knows the McDonald’s menu as well as he claims, he should recognize a McFlurry when he sees one.
Kind of reminds me about the story where Stalin gave a speech and at the conclusion the Politbureau gave a standing ovation that lasted quite a while because everyone was afraid to be the first to stop applauding.
I remember reading – maybe from someone here, maybe in Solzhenitsyn – that the recording of that speech was released on vinyl, and the applause filled an entire side of one record.
Very Trumpy of him:
Senator Potatohead. Figures.
There had been a plan to move Space Command to Alabama. That plan is on hold and they may stay in Colorado, citing lower costs to do so.
Of course, everybody says his recalcitrance was not part of any of that decision process, but I imagine they weren’t losing any sleep over his complaints about it, either.
I think that Space Command should be renamed. Nothing drastic, just the inclusion of an exclamation point at the end.
Space Command!
I wonder what they do all day besides wondering what they should do all day.
I’d bet uniform design, logo design, that stuff.
