The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

Looks like the Walrus is starting to throw his weight around.

The problem is, the oil is on fire.

And the machine is a Fleshlight.

Heh.

Guessing not many people are going to click on your link.

I did. I was not disappointed.

Prediction: Nielsen is the next Apprentice flunkie by, say, Nov. 20.

Christ. I pull something like that and I get a written warning. Just business as usual in Spock’s Beard Universe Presidenting.

Let’s hope you’re correct. I love good news on my birthday.

Or John Kelly.

I suspect that part of the rub is having the Walrus, who was one of the armchair warriors who goaded us into the Iraq debacle, dictate to John Kelly - a real warrior - how to best use the military. I rather think that John Kelly was of the opinion that using the US armed forces to stop a border control problem was a particularly good example of best use.

I suspect that the few remaining adults in the room are on their way out. It started with McGahn. Kelly and Mattis are soon to follow.

But if she gets replaced, it will be someone more to Bolton’s and Don’s liking, someone who probably isn’t a family type.

And in the mystical future b-day tidings.

Re: trade war

Remember the Viet Nam war. America inflicted great damage on Vietnam, killing many more of their troops and civilians than they they did us.

And yet…we lost the war.

That’s how I see our trade war with China. There will be major consequences for China - already are. But they’re going to fight to defend their sovereignty, and they have no elections – we do. We don’t have a high tolerance for pain. China does. We can think we’re ‘winning’…and lose. That’s probably how this ends.

Of course that’s how this ends: China has all the leverage.

They do, and they don’t.

The reality is, I fucking hate Xi Jinping. Shit-ass head of state. Thug. Dictator. Rapes his own people. I’ve wanted Xi to have his come-uppance for a while…I just never thought it would be from a doofus like Trump.

Ambivalence: word of the day.

From the fight between The Walrus and Kelly. Does Trump think a border is a lemonade stand?

Actually, China does have some elections. They’re just not for anything really important.

AH, HAHAHA!! giggle snort Hoo-eee, now THAT was funny. :smiley:

I voted this evening and dropped the ballot off at the post office. Republican filth, drop dead and then go fuck yourself.

As Stephen Colbert called them last night, “the White House’s own Statler and Waldorf.”

I dunno. Who’s going to fire her? Not Trump - he’s too chicken shit to actually fire someone, and I don’t see Kelly firing his former deputy.

I hope you’re right considering the next SHS* would, without question, be a much scarier one if Staler and Waldorf get their way.

*That’s Secretary of Homeland Security. Not…well…you know.
Although a Sarah clone would be an interesting thought.

A couple weeks ago Nielson claimed that there’s been no Chinese election meddling, but I don’t find myself too convinced of that. And of course this contradicts Cheetoface’s claim, about a week before Nielson’s announcement, that there are Chinese cyberthreats.
Only the best team communication.
