The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

He accidentally ate one of those vegetarian hamburgers. Went to get this stomach pumped before it turned him homosexual.

Couple tweets within the past hour. The king, apparently, remains animate.

That’s just what Kevin Dunn and Frank Langella want you to think. Anybody can write a tweet. They need a little cover. It’ll take a few days to get the new guy up to speed.

Was everything spelled correctly? Then, probably not him.

You know how it is with children.

“This is a stethoscope, It won’t hurt at all. Now take a deep breath”
Next visit they will take his blood pressure, sure to wear anyone out.

And we have to take time for Trump to call the scale a liar.

A compiling of available rumors and speculations available at a lefty blog. Something called “Daily Kost”, or something like that.

My WAG, based on my not having bothered to read anything about it, is that he went in for something minor and typical of a man his age and poor physical condition, but his instinctual dishonesty about everything fuels all kinds of elaborate and unnecessary speculation.

He’s not going to die. He’s not going to resign for “health reasons”. He’s not laying the groundwork for some “compassion pardon”. He’s a fat, aging grifter who hides and lies about everything, even when there’s no benefit to him.

Every gay man in America said, “Pump his stomach faster! Pump it FASTER!!!”

I think they’re probably okay…unless it had avocado on it, in which case they’re all doomed.
Move over, ‘latte liberal.’ A new GOP insult invokes goat milk and avocado toast.

I think you’re spot on. Trump would lie about what color his tie was. Right in front of the cameras. For no reason.

It’s probably something like he got his tiny button mushroom caught in a zipper or something. Or Melania kicked him in his shriveled gonads.

But in my wild imagination, Trump suffered another in a series of TIA’s, and he was found in the Imperial Bathroom with his pants on his head, muttering “purple monkey dishwasher!” His handlers are currently wondering what the hell to do with him, as he’s even more incoherent than usual.

I like the cut of your jib. :slight_smile:

For aficionados of the Enneagram, the soon-to-be-ex is a type 3. At their most dysfunctional level, they lie about everything, even inconsequential things when it doesn’t matter one way or the other.

They think they understand the only Amendment that matters to them - the Second -

But they think it means every fucking psycho can have as many weapons as they want, and any kind they want, and that they can overthrow the government by force any fucking time they please (if it doesn’t do what THEY want).

In a perfect world, he’d have no coverage at all - due to preexisting conditions, and because he did his best to wreck healthcare coverage for other people. Fuck him.

NONE of these republican politicians, thieves, ass stains should have any free coverage of ANYthing on our dime. They should get the same benefits and perks they want to give us … NONE.

I hope whatever Trump has (if this is not just more distraction) is painful as all fuck, and is fatal.

But our luck isn’t that good.

My own baseless speculation is that he had a mild panic attack, and they took him in to be sure there was no cardiac event involved. While there, they went ahead and did a few of the tests he would need for his physical, thus providing the cover story.

I disagree. There are people who commit fraud against our social safety net (such as it is). You are correct that Republicans point to these people as justification for eliminating the programs. I think that people ‘gaming the system’ are inevitable, but their numbers are few. It is better to help the majority, and prosecute the gamers as they are found. Fraud is a cost of doing business, and they can be absorbed to benefit the vastly greater majority of those who need assistance.

Let everyone receive the benefits they need, even Republicans. Let them complain as they collect their checks. It’s for the good of the country, to have everyone* protected.

Do you suppose one of those tests was a search to determine if he even has a heart (or brain, for that matter)?

He hasn’t got a heart. Nor a brain. Nor courage. He’s Dorothy’s entourage all in one lump.

Didn’t he already take one for his brain?

Not sure if I remember correctly, but I think the results were “inconclusive”.

And her little dog, too.
