I’m pretty sure the The Trump campaign is ok with any music at the rallies as long as it’s before the early 80’s.
No - mid 80’s.
Well, times are tough; they had to lay off their “mailman” character.
Presumably “tucking my shirt in” is another creative Republican euphemism, like “hiking the Appalachian trail” or “ensuring the integrity of elections”.
Don’t forget “wide stance”
What became of that story about DeJoy shutting down the Post Office Police for two weeks? I haven’t seen or heard anything more about it, here or elsewhere. It doesn’t seem to be much in the news that I can find.
He told the Postal Police that oversee things like mail security, to go home for two weeks. I haven’t heard anything else of it either.
Much as I love to see Rudy humiliated, I find this a plausible explanation - I’m not sure why he’s lying down but his shirt likely came untucked in the process.
Doesn’t mean I’m not going to laugh about it. Or contemplate sending Rudy a little gift…
Oh, you people are just being silly, not to mention mean to ol’ Rudy!
Any teenage girl will tell you that when you want to get into a pair of tight jeans (especially if they’ve just come out of the dryer), you have to lie down in order to get them buttoned and zipped. There may be some squirming and writhing involved during the operation. When you stand up, you have to make sure all of your internal organs are where they’re supposed to be and that you can breathe. A little.
Clearly he was demonstrating this process to his young(ish) female observer. Case (and zipper) closed.
On the Covid-19 side of the clusterfuck, Hillary Clinton retweeted a part of a 2016 speech, in which she said:
Kinda like Reagan’s use of Born in the USA was aimed at patriots.
I really do believe someone on the trump team who picks the songs played at his appearances is trolling him. Three other songs played at trump appearances with brutally ironic lyrics:
- Live and Let Die
- Fortunate Son
- In the Air Tonight (…if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand…)
Fuck I hope there’s a (correct!) court decision on this latest DeJoy shit
Like, yesterday.
Who else is watching tonight’s debate purely for the hopes of seeing Trump go ballistic the first time he gets muted?
Y’know, I wasn’t going to … but now I must, because I had not considered the entertainment value of watching this.
Trump: “LAPTOP LAPTOP LAPTOP”
There - now you don’t have to watch the debate.
…but enough about Giuliani.
I am, but I’m sure he’s undergoing some kind of therapy and being sedated with drugs to try to instill some semblance of self-control. Probably off the steroids and on heavy doses of Valium. Not sure how long it will last before he cracks. Depends on the dosage, I suppose. He’ll be going in there with a persecution complex and a seething hatred for his opponent unprecedented in debate history.
He keeps reminding me of this scene:
Spock: Captain, the speech follows no logical pattern.
Kirk: Random sentences strung together.
McCoy: He looks drugged, Jim. Almost at a cataleptic state.
–Star Trek: “Patterns of Force”
Hogan Gidley on MSNBC this morning refused to answer the question as to what sort of pre-debate prep Individual 1 is doing.
I do wonder whether the debate will be canceled if he refuses to take a covid test.
A judge has dropped third degree murder charges against Derek Chauvin. I’m sure that’s going to go over well on the streets of Minneapolis tonight.
