The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

If it says Keebler on the box (and it does), I think Keebler makes Town House crackers.

I just remembered I have a box of Town House crackers in the cupboard. Goes to check… And the box says Keebler !!! In your face, insufferable pedants!

I’m really sick of this false conclusion, that if someone is supportive of Sessions remaining in his position but hates everything he stands for, it makes them a hypocrite. It’s utter bullshit.

I loathe Sessions. He is the antithesis of virtually everything I believe. I did not want him as AG. But he is Trump’s pick. Elections have consequences.

When it was learned that Sessions lied in his confirmation hearing about meeting with Russians, in my opinion, that was when he should have been fired. Trump could have done it then. There was an actual basis for doing it – same as when he reluctantly fired Flynn. But he didn’t, and that was Trump’s choice, too.

When Trump later started trying to force Sessions to resign and it became clear his actual reason was to try and fire Mueller, well, that’s something different altogether. That’s Trump abusing his power and Sessions resisting the effort.

I still think Sessions will be scooped up by Mueller when he indicts Sessions for his perjury. But for now, I can support Sessions in his choice to resist Trump’s efforts to dislodge him as AG, continue to despise him as a person and as an AG, and not at all feel like I’m a hypocrite for simultaneously doing both those things.

I agree. The main reason I want Sessions to stay (for now) is to block Trump from hirng some stooge who fires Meuller (but Congress is saying “no way”). Sessions was not supposed to recuse himself, he was supposed to fire Meuller and then take the bullet for Trump. The other reason I want him to stay is more simple - just for the spitefulness of it.

Sure, Congress is a bunch of lousy stinking hypocrites. Personally hope some of them get caught in the drag net too. But as long as they frustrate the wannabe king dumbshit, they serve a purpose.

That’s right, fans, Krauthammer is now one of the Voices of Reason. Krauthammer.

oh my Gawd. We have arrived on Bizzaro World.

You think that’s bad, I found myself agreeing with Paul Ryan this morning.

The discussion was about Sessions’ newfound leaker preoccupation and intimations that he may go after the press more aggressively. Paul Ryan responded something to the effect that the problem is the leakers, not the journalists. I found myself nodding in agreement.

Then I took a shower.

That’s the thing, Mueller wasn’t even in the picture when Sessions recused himself. It was Comey that was leading the investigations at the time. Which makes it even more shady as fuck that Sessions took an active part in Comey’s firing while supposedly recused on Russia/campaign/election matters. And it also makes it crazy as fuck that Trump blames Sessions for not predicting that he would have to recuse himself in the future so that he could inform Trump of that before accepting the job.

TRUMP: Why didn’t you recuse yourself ahead of time?

GRANNY: I didn’t think you’d get caught!

We’re still waiting for Krauthammer to address his own efforts to create the environment in which this even became conceivable.

But does Keebler own the elves? If so, case closed.

Amdt XIII does not say anything about humans, per se, so Keebler would be in violation of the law by owning elves.

And how does one keeble, anyway?

You’re right, it was Comey back then and our favorite little Klansman had already recused himself (but couldn’t resist interfering anyway). That’s when Dump and Sessions hired Rosenberg (or Rosenstein?) whatever…to write the “you’re fired” justification and tried to throw HIM under the bus. But it didn’t work out that way. Rosenberg hired Meuller. Don’t forget too, the Retard In Chief flat out said he fired Comey over “the Russia thing”.

But there is a new wrinkle and it’s coming from the great patriots who like to call the rest of us traitors. There are rumblings among the more extreme (or just the more honest?) of them of rebellion and civil war if Trump “gets it”.

Go on Twitter and search “#civilwar”.

This is basically a thread for Trump supporters to threaten the country with civil war if Trump goes down in some way, whether it be impeachment, charges via Mueller or what-have-you.

Civil Fucking War.

The Russians and Assange are helping to push it.

Finally, “Judge” Jeanine on “Fox & Friends” said there’d be an “uprising” if a Trump family member was indicted… and Resident Dump retweeted it.

There’s your patriotic flag waving motherfuckers right there. Making something or other great again.

Never happen. Selective amnesia, fake news, vast conspiracy against him, chem trails, whatever. Fuck him and anyone that looks like him.

It’s hard to believe anyone would lay down their life for this cocksucker.

I doubt President Pence will have any problem with using force to suppress an armed rebellion.

I can honestly say I’ve never had anything but utter scorn for that racist redneck. The only job he’s fit for is Head Elf at the Keebler Cracker Factory.

@Monty

(My bolding above.)

Please tell me you came up with the bolded insult yourself. It’s now one of the few on my “favorite insults” list.

@Ann_Hedonia

Yes, I came up with it myself. One of my finer moments.

Agreed, a fine one but don’t ignore Trevor Noah’s nod to J.K. Rowling’s universe - “Confederate house elf”

Alex Jones talks about it all the time. I wanna shoot him FIRST. Can I? Please can I?

Or is it a case of “I’ll fight to the last drop of YOUR blood”?

Somebody give him a sock or a shirt or something, so he’ll leave when it’s time. Just wait for the right time. I like the idea of Resident Chump steaming that he can’t safely get rid of him.

:insufferable pedant:
Keebler doesn’t make crackers. Cookies, pie crust and ice cream cones.

Keebler does own the Townhouse and Kellogg brands that do make crackers of various sorts. :insufferable pedant:

Looks like they’ve removed the elf from the Keebler logo on the cracker boxes, but I well remember the commercials featuring the Keebler elf hawking Club crackers and Town House crackers.

I’ve never read Harry Potter and I haven’t watched TDS for months, but synchronicity.

I’m for putting that crackpot Trump up against the Keebler Elf in a fight to the death. Elves rule!
