The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making Part Deux (Part 1)

It’s hard to guess what’s going inside that orange head but when I was reading an article about the TikTok ban, it noted that several American companies have been trying to buy the product. It occurred to me that Trump may be doing a favor for some business crony (probably in exchange for a substantial campaign donation) by cutting off China and driving down the price. Once an American company buys it, Trump can cancel the ban and the value goes back up.

“If”.

He’s just pissed off that teenage TikTok users trolled him so badly during his Tulsa Rally debacle.

You know - the rally that ended up spreading Covid all over Oklahoma, and killing Herman Cain.

I’m clearly not up to speed here. The President can permanently shut down any business he cares to by executive order, at any time, with no due process or legal recourse?

The president wanting to control the economy? Isn’t there a name for that?

Only if it goes the way he wants. Otherwise, not his fault.

Very unlikely. Elections are held at the state level. It’s hard to imagine states will leave out that one election and hold the ones for their Representatives and Senators. There’s no rationale, legal or medical, for it being safe to do one but not the other. And states will want to hold onto their Congressional representation at the very least.

Hard to imagine any state, even heavily Republican ones, chopping their own legs off simply to pwn the libz or because Trump said ‘pwetty, pwetty pwease’.

How about: all elections take place on Nov 3, and Congress is elected (popular vote) without controversy. But the presidential race can’t be determined (electoral college) because of Reasons TBD.

That doesn’t change the fact that Trump and Pence are out on their ass on Jan. 20, 2021. Order of Succession kicks in.

Obviously fake. Too coherent.

Yeah, I pasted that paragraph into Word and it rated it grade level 7.7 on the Fleischer Readability scale. Waaaay too high. :nerd_face:

Individual 1 says he’s going to ban Tik Tok.

Its because he keeps hearing people say “Tick Tock Mother Fucker”, and he can’t figure out what it means.

Christ, why even go there? Florida is an absolute shit show. He could have gone back to the Dakotas and filled a union hall or something. The firing of Brad Parscale might not save him from himself.

Golf.

One of the biggest Tik Tok celebrities is a girl who trolls Individual 1 by lip syncing his comments.

The “girl” (Sarah Cooper) is 42 years old.

Thanks for the correction. For some reason, I got the impression that she was a teenager.

Trump refuses to see who the problem figure is in his administration. Even when he bottoms out, it’s “people don’t like me” not “I’m doing a terrible job”. He’s absolutely convinced he’s great. The worst he can think of himself is that other people don’t understand his greatness.

So if there are problems, it must be due to somebody else who’s interfering with his greatness. Fire that person and remove the obstacle and everything will be prefect.

This means he blamed Parscale for the failure in Tulsa. And because he removed Parscale, he was sure that this rally in Tampa would be huge. The way a Trump rally is supposed to be.

I think we’re seeing this in Trump’s response to Covid19. He just keeps thinking this isn’t supposed to be happened to his Presidency. His Presidency is supposed to be perfect. In his mind, Covid19 should just go away.

I know, I was thinking she was early 20’s. Good genes, I guess!

But she doesn’t look orange… :grin:
