Translation: “The president, his doctor and I know that last night, Mr. Trump had a Transient Ischemic Attack.”
My wife asked me the same question. I didn’t ponder it for two seconds; Francis Underwood would be a better President than Trump. Not even a close call.
Underwood is an absolute bastard, but he at has some idea how to run a government and wouldn’t start a nuclear war or cheerily sign off on raising the ocean levels by four feet because he’s too busy counting red baseball caps or talking about covfefe.
He’s just trolling. He’s bad four months, he has to stand up every day in front of a hostile press core trying to defend the indefensible only to have his explanations be undermined by his boss the next night.
you can’t blame him for sending the press off on a snipe hunt so he can get a moments peace.
Is it lying if you know no one actually believes anything you say?
Trump’s supporters believe him. Of course, those morons would believe him if he said the Sun was plaid and put out polka dotted sunlight.
Trumpeters have difficulty with polysyllabic words, so they simply trust in their God Trump that his emissions are divine alternate facts.
Trump grants ethics waivers to 17 senior staff members.
The swamp is draining - right into the Oval.
He promised us a Rose Garden?
I’m reminded of a Sr Manager I once had. Len (his real name) was routinely outsmarted by cheese. He had sent out an email to his group reminding the provisioners to be careful with disconnecting DS1s and DS2s (he mistyped “DS3”). After his typo had been pointed out to him, rather than laughing it off, he had to go around with a copy of Newton’s Telecom Dictionary showing everybody that DS2s were really a thing. There were people actually dancing in the aisles when he was caught up in a round of layoffs.
Trump is one of those people who is so desperately insecure that he cannot be wrong about one thing… ever.
So let’s assume that covfefe means coverage as some have suggested. It makes: “Despite the constant negative press coverage”
It still makes no sense. 
Is there a word / an idiom that would make it sensible?
Or have Spicer given up even trying anymore and trust that T supporters just shrug and say oh, OK then?
It only makes sense if it’s the first half of a sentence. “Despite the constant negative press coverage, I cause the sun to rise in the East each morning, and bestow blessings upon my chosen ones” or something like that.
I think he was tweeting, got to “cov” when something distracted him. He put phone in pocket, then pocket dialing did the rest. Didn’t get on Twitter the rest of the night, when got back on, deleted covfefe
And they could have said, “Shit blew up in Afghanistan. The briefing had a higher priority than deleting tweets.” and 73% of America would have dropped it and concentrated fully on criticizing Kathy Griffin. But Il Douche will never admit he made a mistake and clearly gave them marching orders.
I think it’s a portmanteau of “coverage” and “feces,” or rather “fe-fe,” this being the term Donald uses when he tells Melania he has to make poopy in his big-boy gold potty.
But you’re right, even “despite the negative press cover-POOP-age,” in isolation, still doesn’t make any sense.
I like that the article states that “Obama also granted that many, but spread out over his 8 years”. Much like Trump spent more WEs golfing over his two first months than Obama did over 8 years.
But you know how the Trumpster reads this, right ? “WINNING ! I got bigger inauguration crowds too !”
It’s official: we’re pulling out of the Paris climate accord.
So there are 190+ countries on one side, and on the other: Nicaragua, Syria, and the United States. :smack:
Hey, I’m still locked-and-loaded for any metric speed limit signs I see. I can shoot the climate, too.
I’m sitting here listening to Trump’s speech. Endless superlatives followed by purely fictitious numbers. And the sad part is that there are people watching this who are eating it all up.
Today is a really sad day. I feel bad for the country.
And Syria does have a pretty good excuse, what with the civil war occupying everyone’s attention these days. Not sure what’s up with Nicaragua, though. Are they being led by a nincompoop as well?
All the more idiotic (or symbolic) that the Paris Accords are pretty much just feel-good, “let’s all try our best !” kumbaya bullshit. But it takes a Trump to say “Nuh-uh !” regardless.
You do you, Don. You do you.
Oh my god, it was nauseating. A fawning introduction from Pence, followed by Trump recapping his administrations “accomplishments”, all of which were either imaginary or irrelevant to the climate decision, or both.
