The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

More maturity on display. :dubious:

…In a major departure from tradition, Trump will not invite Democrats or the media to his first state dinner… Who the heck is going? Only FOUR members of Congress, and Turtle Face declined?

Seriously, it’s bad enough you have to eat his food, but you also have to spend the evening sitting in his company wondering which parts of him the prostitute pissed on.

Well, one could expect trump to say “You wanna fuck with that?”

Trump wouldn’t ask.

That story certainly hit the nail on the head in one respect: “a sharp departure from tradition” is one of the most concisely accurate descriptions of this entire administration.

I hear it’s the leader in the clubhouse for being emblazoned on the next round of trucker hats in 2019-20 - #ASDFT!

Republicans from states that are suffering particular harm from Pruitt’s efforts to wreck the environment may eventually feel enough pressure to hold him to account, that they’ll sign on.

I will bet you the Hope Diamond that not one of those venal, spineless, useless dinglebrerries will hold him accountable, despite the fact that, yeah - Pruitt really and truly is shaping up to be one of the most reprehensibly slimy, dastardly cretin-in-a-suits that ever traipsed the face of this (once-green) earth.

@smithsb

Hey Rudy, you’ve been on quite a losing streak since 9/11 to here’s a few tips for you when signing up with the Trumpster:

1. Get your retainer up front. Bill on a regular basis. No payment extensions. No rubles.

2. Always have a second lawyer present during any conversation or communication with Agent Orange. Take copious notes, record, film as required.

3. Do not present any independent ideas or opinions without getting them in writing from the Shitgibbon (should this be capitalized?). Always refer to #2 above

Thoughts and prayers, Rudy, thoughts and prayers.

4. When paying off someone to stfu - BURNER PHONES!!!

@eschereal

By contrast, if Pruitt is pushed out like the turd that he is, the SCOA will double down and try to replace him with some nastier ooze-frosted shit that he got Kelly Conway to dig out of there with a bony finger.

Meet whoever the fuck Andrew Wheeler is.

Calvin Coolidge!? Donald Trump has more money than Calvin Coolidge put together!

Please, no, I like Coolidge the way he is. Putting him back together is not a good idea.

That’s an entirely different kind of President, altogether.

Not if you turn it into some sort of perverse acronym.

I wouldn’t bet against your prediction.

But, November 6-wise, it will be interesting to see how explicitly campaign opponents to our current crop of Republicans might tie them to their boy Pruitt and his many corrupt escapades.

His downfall will be his vulnerability to kryptopussy.

I think you mispelled kremlinpussy. Is honey trap one word or two?

[Siam_Sam]

I will be forever bitter that the Russkies never tried a honey trap on me. And the photos would have made great Christmas cards.

There is a movement for Chump to demand the release of the three US citizens being held by North Korea as a precondition for talks, but since all three are ethnic Koreans and not white, good luck getting him to care.

So he just uses the hair on his taint to make his pubic hair by combing it up into a combover, so his carpet matches his drapes?

More grownup behavior:

Thank Trump, or You’ll Be Sorry

President Trump recently tweeted, The United States, under my administration, has done a great job of ridding the region of ISIS. Where is our "Thank you, America?”

(My italics.) In a rare moment of graciousness, I’ll ignore the fact that the misplaced quotation marks in that tweet screw up what he intends to say. Should be

Where is our “Thank you,” America?

Not surprising, as punctuation is very hard. All those little squiggles–what do they mean anyway? The article continues:

…Mr. Trump’s obsession with gratitude is a regular feature of his unscripted remarks and speeches. When people thank him, he likes them. But when slighted, he is quick to criticize unappreciative offenders. He has attacked Puerto Rican leaders as “politically motivated ingrates”; demanded public thanks from his cabinet and members of Congress; wants people to thank him for stock market gains; and excoriated a corporation as failing to thank him when he approved a project to its benefit.

…

Gratitude is central to Mr. Trump’s politics. He demands it of his followers, his cabinet and, indeed, of all citizens. He deploys gratitude against his enemies and critics to embarrass and shame. Being grateful is not an option. It is a requirement.

Like his one-way loyalty.

Donald Trump has made “thank you” divisive…

Well, when he’s good at something, he’s really good at it. :dubious:

I think he misplaced the question mark, not the quotation marks. I think he meant to say that America deserves thanks, not that America owes thanks.

Thump thanking another entity for anything?? :eek: You’ll have to explain that one.

He thinks the world owes thanks to America, which under his leadership “has done a great job of ridding the region of ISIS.”
