The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

SOTU tweet.

Like I said.

Really???

But is there actually a requirement as to when, or how often, the SOTU has to be given? Doesn’t the Constitution just say, “He shall, from time to time …”?

I’m not sure there’s an enforcement mechanism. Kind of like the Senate not voting on judicial nominees.

This is the standard:

No, not “Really.” Note how Otto’s post ends with “Sad!” That’s the clue.

Trump skip out on an opportunity to talk on television in prime time? It is to laugh.

I agree he’s probably not capable of the introspection to realize if he’d never run for president he wouldn’t be under all these investigations, BUT if he were in jail and penniless he’d be super mad and the thought of that brings me great satisfaction. I’m not sure that will ever happen but it would be quite satisfying to me.

He knows that he is colluding, he just thinks that he is colluding with Putin becase Putin recognizes his brilliance and worthiness to lead.

He is unwitting in that he is simply a pawn in Putin’s plans to damage the only world power able to hold him in check.

I disagree with the death penalty on philosophical grounds, but as long as we have it, as long as the public supports the ultimate punishment for heinous crimes, then I do think that the damage that this president has done to this country and her people clears the bar, IMHO, far more than many others on death row.

Did I say hung like a horse? Sorry, I meant hanged like a horse thief.

More word salad from the Shit Gibbon, unable to answer even a simple yes or no question (“Are you now or have you ever worked for the Russian government?”).

My favorite snippet:
“I fired James Comey… I call him Lyin James Comey, because he’s a terrible liar…”

Hmmm, I guess that’s why we call Trump “President Trump”? Because he’s a terrible president?

It’s just “business”. Screw anyone for a buck is trumps great business strategy. Run away if it doesn’t work out as planned.

Trump doesn’t have a clue of who and what he’s dealing with.

No, it’s because Trump thinks he’s a great liar. Just business don’t cha’know.

Actually, IMHO, Trump is too stupid to know that he lies and misleads. Whatever odd thing that pops into his head is policy. That has been his entire life.

Anthony Scaramucci is going to be a contestant on Celebrity Big Brother.

It’s now 280 characters. And I think, as a service to our country, that we Dopers should assist in composing a tweet-worthy SOTU. There are a lot of smart and well-spoken folks on this board; surely somebody can compose a well-written speech in 280 keystrokes or less?

“Trump-o pawn in game of life.”

MamaPlant the Engliah teacher would be content.

Will the first elimination be eleven days after the show starts?

I’m hearing Chump not only personally confiscated interpreters’ transcripts of his meeting between him and Putin but also warned the interpreters never to tell White House officials what was discussed. Can’t the House now subpoena those interpreters and make them talk?

Odd he can’t just lie and say no. He’s had no trouble lying about anything else even if it could mean legal liability later down the road.

I know it was Fox, so his word salad was likely to go unchallenged, but it would be hilarious to have a real reporter get that response and then follow up with “So… that’s a yes?”

Not to junior mod, but can we keep the entertainment news in CS?
