That’s why he doesn’t gimp from those bone spurs, don’t 'cha know.
Chances are, some Dem candidates probably will. But it’s a long way to Election Day, so they’re not going to do it right away. They’ll wait until much closer to the election. They can also make some points about the fraudster who was pardoned (for the fraud, not 1/6) and then frauded again and got another pardon. Chances are, she’ll keep frauding.
“Dave? Dave’s not here.”
That’s a big “if”.
It wasn’t a drug or insanity-fueled speech. He opened with flashing his Big Perfect Book of Trump Greatness (when he does that, doesn’t it [ normally ] have to go to the National Archives?), then spent 20 minutes of flashing pictures of Evil Men Biden let in to do their Worst.
So that’s Agenda items 1 & 2, yet 2 went on way too long, and assuming his big book contains some kind of trump History, I feel bad for whoever was asked to type up 800 pages, double-spaced. Condense it to 600 pages of script, starting with an old-timey newsreel trashing Old Man Biden and blackmail PBS into showing it over 4 nights. Or Fox or from a newly created Trump Channel streamed from the White House on America’s dime. The DOJ has enough on JJ Abrams to get him to direct, for scale.
The BBS News channel cut away after two mentions of the Azerbaijani President and Armenian Prime Minister tearfully hugging it out [ lens flare ] and mentioning that Putin tasked him to do it since in ten years, Putin could do nothing. Not a thing. So after two mentions of that great deed about five minutes apart, BBC News cut out and vaguely said they possibly pop back in. They may have for the Q&A, yet I was on their iPlayer waiting to hear him say something about Rotten Denmark and Stupid Starmer. He was asked why Starmer’s following through of the deal from THIS PAST MAY that Trump agreed to, and the deal-maker trump just said the UK must have needed the money and pivoted back to getting Greenland.
A couple mentions of Putin, 6 Star Admiral General Hegseth’s “Peace Council” (or whatever), and random - not even rambling as they’d be one sentence - verbal diarrhea.
For the State of the Union, his book will have a sequel just as big, Greenland, and the USA will be vastly Mercatorized at the expense of puny Canada, and no less than ten minutes of standing ovation on the left and 5/9 of SCOTUS, and plenty of remarks about the ungrateful sign-holders on the right. I’m not sure if Congress is in session and how many of the “democrat party” would need to remain to prevent crazy-law-making-time, yet I’ll say what I said for last years fake SotU - as many as can should walk or be kicked out and amass on the Capitol steps, and miss the parade of 1,500 Jan6’ers getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
There may just be National Guard to stand on the Capitol steps the next time after that, and no SotU where the Dems (those not in jail or shot) are invited.
On the contrary, he is very pleased with that. His press speaker (or whatever her title is) Rita Skeeter has already declared that this shows that getting that Qatar jumbo jet does not look like a bad idea now, does it?
An even better idea is keeping it for personal use after the military has retrofitted it and put it up to date.
Sounds like it’s long overdue and after this, entirely necessary to expedite.
Paint it Blue on Top and Gold underneath. Oh wait…
Just gold then, and enough HP in the engines so it can be plated gold at least in parts.
You’re assuming the book is legitimate. Trump has a history of staging events and photo ops with stacks of paper that are actually blank underneath the cover page. Until proven otherwise, it’s not just safe but advisable to conclude that the thing he was waving around is an equally empty prop.
Edit: adding cites.
He does flip through it and you can see text on the pages, but it could be lorem ipsum for all we know.
I reckon if he read it, it would of course go into the National Archives and the white house web page, where I highly doubt there is a link to it. His administration(s) history and his ghostwritten books aren’t as good as Lorem Ipsum.
A WAG is he needs reading glasses, as I would, as that looked like 9-point letters deliberately small so as to be unreadable unless the NYT or CNN can Enhance. He just knows where to sign his crazy legislation with his psychotic signature.
I thought so after Stupid Starrmer gave the King’s invite to Trump, who, after giving (the?) page a look, he just remarked about the signature and handed it back to (a surprised) Sir Seller-of-Chagos (he needed the money) Starmer to read.
And besides it being unusual for KCIII to return to the USA to celebrate 250 July 4ths, I suppose it would be harder diplomatically to send Trump a 32-point “NOT COMING” letter. The “special relationship” is over, or at least taking a break for a pot of tea and a few slices, it just hasn’t been realized yet.
I’ve just written to my (Democratic) Senators and my (Democratic) Representative, and put the text into a Facebook post in which I tagged all three.
Dear [Senator Cantwell/Senator Murray/Representative Larsen].
Do you remember Willie Horton? In 1987, after escaping from a work-furlough program, the convicted felon committed kidnap, armed robbery, and rape in Maryland. During the 1988 Presidential Elections, presidential nominee and Vice President George H.W. Bush brought up Horton repeatedly, blaming his rival Michael Dukakis for Horton’s release on furlough.
The Democratic Party should learn a lesson from this. President Trump pardoned every one of the January 6 insurrectionists, and several have been re-arrested for committing violent crimes including rape and child molestation.
The Democratic Party needs to push home the fact that the Republican Party, through its support of Trump, is the Party of Releasing Criminals to Commit More Crimes Party.
Thank you,
Boy his address at davos is very slurred.
He just said this about Canada: “They should be grateful also, but they’re not. I watched your prime minister yesterday. He wasn’t so grateful. But they should be to us. Canada lives because of the U.S. Remember that Mark, the next time you make your statements.”
I’ve sent it to Governor Gavin Newsom too, why not.
He also confused Iceland and Greenland several times during his address.
Also went on a rant against Somalis. Said they aren’t as low-IQ as he one thought because they went into Minnesota and stole a bunch of money. Called them "good pirates "
That was the lowest energy dumpster fire ever.
I can understand why he feels so conflicted: from his warped viewpoint they’re from a shithole country (which is bad) but they’re good at fraud (which is good).
He said Denmark is being ungrateful for our help during WW2, and because of our help, they should give us Greenland. He said, “Without us, you’d all be speaking German and a little Japanese, perhaps.”
France should reply “And without our help in your war of independence, you’d be speaking English now.”
“instead of whatever it is that your president is speaking now”
< insert Rainer Wolfcastle gif here >
Considering his marriage to Melania, his advancing age, cognitive dysfunction, fatigue, his famously poor “diet and exercise” regimen, and the likely cocktail of meds they give him to keep him upright … I’m guessing that what he’s speaking is closest to Slurvenian.
I’m not convinced he knows they are two different countries. He probably thinks “Iceland” is just Greenland’s nickname.
