This is the one of the few actual guys for whom board rules prohibit me from enumerating the exact reasons why I have several bottles of champagne on speed-chill right now.
Um, the E-6Bs are to communicate with USN submarine forces. So it makes sense to me to have one on the East Coast to communicate with sub forces in the Atlantic Area and one on the West Coast for Pacific Area forces. Back in my youth USAF bombers were always flying shotgun in the sky.
Perhaps he has infected enough Secret Service Agents to have a standby team of previously infected agents to escort him for stupid shit.
It’s not a real crisis until some panicked Twitter user posts that he saw a solo C-17 flying out of Pope AFB late at night. Them’s the rules.
Can’t wait to see what NYT op-edder Gail Collins would do with this!
Also, no fucking way Typhoid Mary is leaving the hospital tomorrow. If he was, there would be no need for this circus right now.
I totally agree. They are trying way too hard. If Trump was secure himself and his health, he would send out another strange-looking video and simply let the doubters doubt. But he has to constantly put on a show to hide the (obvious) reality he’s always afraid someone will see (hence the bronzer, the horrible combover, the ill-fitting suits, and the lifts).
That picture of Trump waving from the backseat of his SUV reminds me of Dukakis’ helmet photo-op. Something that was meant to convey strength but makes the man look ridiculous. I mean Trump’s little hands waving from the backseat while he peers out is just so…childish looking.
And I just found an answer to my Biden question: yes, reported negative again: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/519564-biden-again-tests-negative-for-covid-19
Nothing will make him look more ridiculous than when he was pretending to drive the big rig.
I mean, cmon.
That’s him being sorta silly.
It’s not nearly as pathetic-looking as the tiny-hands waving from the backseat. Imo, of course.
Not just the waving. The putting everyone in the car at risk so he can receive some adulation.
I think he wants to be back in the White House for the VP debates. Its a part of his shit show.
My god there must 50 people out there. Trump - There is enthusiasm like no one has ever seen!
Time for me to hang it up for the evening. I first read that as “a solo C-17 flying out of the Pope’s ass.”
ThelmaLou is leaving the building.
Hold the phone. Am I to understand the video I’ve been seeing of Trump waving from the back of an SUV is just him circling the hospital so he can wave like the County Potato Queen and then go back in for more treatment? I thought I was seeing him going back to the White House and I’ve been wondering if that was wise.
Someone set me straight. He’s still in the hospital, right? That was just a joyride around the neighborhood?
Get em while they’re hot:
This is correct.
Un-effing-believable.
shorter than that, a one block up and back.
What happens if people order and Trump dies? I think we all know the answer
