At the joint presser with Angela Merkel, Trump reiterated his support for Dr. Adm. Ronny Jackson, and denounced the “false accusations” that caused him to withdraw. I really wish there’d been a follow-up: “So Mr President…with regards to the 23 retired military personnel who brought these allegations forward – are you calling them all liars? Or just Senator Tester?” It’s a pity duelling has gone out of fashion. ---

So Chump will be doing his British trip finally, in July. That should be fun to watch, like a spectacular train wreck.\* \*Disclaimer: Spectacular train wrecks probably aren’t all that fun to watch. ---

KellyAnn wants Fox to get Trump to be a regular. After the recent mess? Well Donnie, you may get some good ratings and viewership after all. If trump does a monthly ‘interview’ it’s gonna be the Super Bowl of madness. PUT HIM ON. We like it when he shoots himself in the foot. Live! it’s… “THE PRESIDENT IS A MORON”. ---

They’re probably NOT that much fun to watch, but maybe if we can talk the America-hating fuckstick to take Amtrak over to Old Blighty, this could be the exception. We could even give it one of those coal-burning steam locomotives and let him believe he’s supporting the miners… ---
