The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

They’ll all be archived in the Donald Trump Presidential Library.

I heard he is planning on skipping the library thing and instead creating the first Presidential Golf Course…

I expect they’ll be filed along with all of the “The President of the United States needs your money, friend!” e-mails that I get on an almost daily basis.

Pompeo sets conditions for Iran meeting after Trump says he’ll meet without preconditions

But without the windmill hole, because it’s too hard.

Trump caught lying again - by his own DOJ, but nothing will happen.

I think you are mistaken. Just look at the tweets. Every one of them has some combination of logical, syntactic and spelinq erras – no one could be that consistent. He has people who do the things of which you speak, but they do it backwards to how you would expect. His stuff is like phone or spam scamming, tailored to get the stupid but filter out the dangerously intelligent.

I saw a description of how this would work, and I’m not sure it’s a terrible idea. If I invest some money, the investment just keeps pace with inflation, then I sell it, in real-world terms I’ve just broken even. I can’t buy any more than I could before. I’m no better off than I was before, but no worse, either; still it seems kinda harsh to view that as a profit I need to pay tax on.

I’ve often thought that our laws don’t take into account entirely predictable changes that we all know will occur. Life spans get longer. Inflation happens. Laws that pin exact numbers to those events will inevitably change as real world circumstances change.

However, I’m aware of how this will shift the tax burden away from the rich (and to people who can’t vote yet or aren’t even born). Republican tax proposals have a “heads I win, tails don’t count” aspect to them. Taxes that penalize the rich are unjust and must be corrected; taxes that penalize the poor and working class can stay as they are. If people want to reform taxes, let’s really reform them. Treat capital gains the same as any other income. Have brackets and rates that actually raise enough revenue pay for everything the government spends.

This winning is incredible. I’m so fucking rich.

You said it, comrade. These Americans are so gullible! My fingers are hurting from all the tweeting and posting. Luckily, finger doctor takes rubles!

OMG, it’s The Matrix.

Hardly. Nigerian scammers do the same thing.

Tell me about it. I just lit my cigar with a hundred-dollar bill, then immediately put it out because I fucking hate cigars.

Oh thank you. I needed that laugh. :smiley:

yes, you are

IIRC, Scudder did the sex with nuns thing. Also, Scudder did not believe his hype; he was a conman.

Remember when the GOP was all bent out of shape because “Bill Clinton lied to Congress”? Well, what’s up now? Not only has Trump lied to Congress, he’s lied to the Supreme Court, and he’s lied to the American people. Really, is there any blame thing he could do that will get Congress off their collective tush and impeach this disgrace?

Trump is meeting with the leader of Iran because it will make him the lead story on the evening news.

I’ve seen the meme asking the Republicans in Congress to treat Donald Trump the same way they would treat Bill Clinton or Barack Obama if one of them had done the exact same things Trump has done.

Conditions? Pre-conditions? Oh let’s call, the whole thing oooooooooooooff!

He thinks you need photo ID to buy groceries.
