The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

President Trump traveled 250 yards to greet George W. Bush. He used a stretch limo and an eight-vehicle motorcade to make the trip.

Word salad uttered by someone who is brain-damaged.

“Hey, Bubba, maybe you WAS da president, but I da president now!”

“We doo not even have a language! Joost this stupid ack cent!”

I was thinking the story about Pence meeting a police officer was no big deal. He’s the Vice President; he meets lots of people. And sometimes he’ll end up being seen in public with somebody who’ll later turn out to be an embarrassment. It happens. Just because Pence was seen with a guy wearing a QAnon patch doesn’t mean the Trump administration is endorsing the movement.

Then I read the complete article. And after several paragraphs of discussion about what happened, the final line was this:

What the fuck! Talk about burying the lede.

That’s about a Par 3 hole, should be easy for Trump - but I guess a golf cart would be in appropriate :smiley:

No truth to the rumor than Trump tried to climb atop the casket to give a speech. Nobody seems to know how these internet things get started.

I dunno… everybody’s saying it, so it must be true.

This just came across my Twitter.

Winning!

Much as I like to criticize Trump, raw numbers tell you little except he happens to be president when the Dow is at its highest, which is generally the case for every president. Percentage drops or another inflation adjustment would be necessary to make a comparison meaningful.

Those are not percentages. They’re also the Dow. Both of which are meaningless in the overall scheme of things, at least compared to stock indices that are more reflective of the broader market are are put into perspective by listing the percentage change.

It also doesn’t say anything about days that the Dow has gone up. The market has been extremely volatile this year, with both large gains and large losses. That’s something that might more reasonably be blamed on the current president: creating an environment where no one is all that sure about the future. Strangely, 2017 was relatively calm. I guess that was before they really knew what was coming.

Eh. If he wants to claim credit for each of the good days, he should take his lumps for each the down days.

All true, but it’s still funny - and shows a lot more nuanced thinking than Twitler ever shows. :smiley:

In her last 9 months, my grandmother used a wheelchair when she was in the residence. When we went out, she very much preferred the walker. And she was over 100.

When you’re too weak to walk as long as a 102yo woman, slugs get pants on just so they can pee them laughing.

I prefer not to follow Trump’s example.

Well, he does have bone spurs…

I thought those healed up in 1973.

I was thinking it was 1975. You know, just in case.

Is that a Spanish idiom or did you just make that up? I like it.

Made it up, inspired by a sort of custom local to my hometown of talking of someone as being lower/worse/yuckier than slugs. They’re not very popular, slugs.

They might also have been saying “Boo-urns!”
