The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

Well, duh, because of the gays. God sent hurricanes, earthquakes, forest fires… we ignored all the signs. So, he had to up the punishment and send us Trump. If we don’t start listening, next time it might be President Alex Jones or President Palin (any of them really).

Trump’s all excited that the Dow has broken 25,000, except:

Trump’s latest tweet about the stock market is actually an incredible self-own

The president thinks it’s “tremendous news” that the Dow has been flat for more than a year.

So, at the end of this year is Trump going to bragging about the low cost of widgets?

Yeah. I go on binges of different types. And I’m pretty much like you. So far, the politics has been minimal. (unfortunately leaning a little pro-Trump I think). Anyway, about half way through the first book, and maybe a chapter on politics. Mostly it’s about the division of the country, and some secret group that is setting up a bunch of terrorist attaches (don’t know their affiliation yet).

He has lousy aim. Sometimes misses the target by thousands of miles. No wonder we didn’t make the connection.

Nitpick: the bridge over Lake Havasu called London Bridge is an entirely new structure. Only the facing stones were taken from the bridge in London.

In all honesty, I’m a little confused about the message. If it’s from the god that Pat Robertson doesn’t follow (but claims to), it’s because we don’t hate the gays enough. If it’s from the god that I don’t follow, it’s because we’re dragging our feet on equality. Now that I think about it, maybe Trump was sent by god - both of them “communicate” loudly, destructively, and don’t make any fucking sense.

There’s that, and also the idea of a vote of confidence — “no matter what Prurient Leader may say, I believe in you and have your back.” If CFSG were to get a complete toady in (and wouldn’t he just love to have Javanka as DNI or heading the CIA), the affected agency/agencies could see the sort of mass exodus that hit the State Department a while back. To the detriment of us all.

Yeah, with an attitude like that, you wouldn’t even last a scaramucci in the White House.

Individual is contemplating nominating fellow groper Herman Cain to the Federal Reserve,

My first thought was that Cain was not qualified. Then I found this:

It’s still stupid, because

But maybe, that is the point.

Just posted by Natasha Bertrand (reporter for The Atlantic & MSNBC):

To continue the hijack, The President’s Analyst is not at all like a Flint movie. The Flint movies were camp Bond sendups, with their ultra-competent superspy hero. The President’s Analyst, by contrast, is deeply fucked up, in the manner of a Delicatessen or Big Lebowski: properly disorienting and weird, with a strong flavor of the late Sixties, which, if you did not live through that era, might not quite make sense to you.

The Dow closed under 25,000 today. I hope President Shit From Shinola doesn’t take the news too hard. A man in that shape needs to take it easy on the ticker, as it were.

It’s OK. Trump is only responsible when the Dow goes up. When it goes down, that is someone else’s fault.

That’s fine. It’ll give him another chance to crow about it.

Guess whose fault?

To be fair, it was below 22 thousand on christmas eve, so it is quite a bit higher than 5 weeks ago.

Man, I wish Hillary would stop messing with the Dow…

The point of the article I posted in #30190 was that the Dow broke 25000 last January and Trump was bragging about it. The Dow is basically where it was a year ago.

A year ago? Ancient history. After all, the man has the attention span of a goldfish (apologies to goldfish).
