The Trump Administration: The Clusterfuck Continues

Paywalled. Can you post relevant quotes?

Which was unfortunately missing from the title structure in Tom Stoppard’s Albert’s Bridge.

Explode – literally. If you’re gonna dream, dream big.

OK, so the Trump org is launching a “USA Made” smartphone and calling plan. More grift.

But when I saw the “key features” I noticed something:

“5000mAh long life camera”

Now, I’m no electronics expert, but I’m pretty sure cameras aren’t measured in mAh, or life…

Am I missing something, or are they that stupid?
(and look quickly before they fix it)

Price: $499
Down Payment: $100
Status: Coming Soon

When will they ever learn?

Unfortunately, since there’s a sucker born every minute, the answer to your question is never. That applies to the grifters as well as the griftees

It will be even better when he starts selling them to foreign travellers coming to the US. “Trump phones won’t be searched or seized at the border, ‘I promise!’”

No need. I would expect the spyware to be built in.

Anyone who can’t grasp the difference between a noun (“Democrat”) and an adjective (“Democratic”) reveals himself to be an idjit unsuited for public office.

You misspelled “Trump Freedom What Do You Have To Hide?ware”, citizen.

While I don’t disagree that 47 is an idjit unsuited for public office, in this case the word use is quite deliberate.

I’ve seen estimates of more than 13 million:

That would be more than 3.5% of the current estimated population of the USA (347,275,807 according to WorldOMeter today). 3.5% of that figure is 12,154,653.

Heh heh heh.

So, in this particular case, he is more an asshole than an idiot.

Those two sides of the coin, let’s call it $TRUMPF!, are always fighting hard with each other for supremacy over his heart and mind (please allow me to use those terms loosely; I know he has neither, it is just a metaphor), but I don’t think any of the two sides will ever be able to win til the day he dies. A pointless, futile fight. So sad!

Among the many, many, many reasons to despise what this administration has done to our country and our society is that continued illegal grift, corruption and hucksterism from the freaking President himself has begun to seem normal; and although illegal, almost (almost!) minor compared with some of the other horrors he has visited on us. I very much miss the days when we had adults in charge.

Tell me something.

If you received a fundraising email from the slimy orange golf cheat… and you told him to F.O. …

And then today, many months later, you got a reply, suddenly calling you “Joe” and still asking for money…

Is it wrong to tell him that since it’s raining and he can’t golf that maybe he should ask Melania or Barron to teach him how to give a good Blow Job…?

“I’m sure that either Putin or Bibi would appreciate it and that it might help your diplomatic skills immensely.”

Trump family launching mobile phone service. There really is no end to this.

Ethics watchdogs said the latest venture represented another means for potential corruption and conflicts of interest.

Ya think?

Just sad. I pay $280/year (once a year) for 15GB/mo, which easily covers my needs. $45/mo has zero appeal to me.

$45 per month. That’s 45? As in 45? I wonder how that number was chosen.

Just kidding! I know exactly why it’s that number.

And besides the obvious grift and self-aggrandizement (which you should’ve figured out by the aforementioned dog whistle foghorn number), how would it even be possible for that pice of… thing to be 100% made in America? Assembled in America in an underground sweatshop by undocumented migrants is something I’d believe. But there’s no way that clunker’s going to be 100% American made.

no, it is $47.45
