Mr. Trump Goes to Washington

[Svata]

I was listing ones who had been shot. Or at least shot at.

[Askold]

McCainn noted that plenty of politicians have been treated worse. Him for example.

And the former Mexican president sent his weekly "FUCK YOU TRUMP" Tweet noting that if he can't take the heat he should quit his job.

And the idiot wants Flynn back.

Several sources close to Flynn and to the administration tell The Daily Beast that Trump has expressed his hopes that a resolution of the FBI's investigation in Flynn's favor might allow Flynn to rejoin the White House in some capacity — a scenario some of Trump’s closest advisers in and outside the West Wing have assured him absolutely should not happen.

Those sources said Trump didn't believe Flynn should be under investigation in the first place.

"Trump feels really, really, really, bad about firing him, and he genuinely thinks if the investigation is over Flynn can come back," said one White House official. [The Daily Beast]

Oh and apparently he keeps in touch with Flynn as well.  The man actually thinks he's king.

Ironbite-not an elected public servant.

Let's not forget this shit.

To sum up: DeVos is defunding many education programs. Replacing with research into charter and religious schools

[Id82]

As bad as everyone is that Trump appointed to his cabinet. Devos is the worst.

So close, yet so goddamn far away.

Meanwhile, Roger Ailes, serial sexual harasser and arguably the man responsible for winning at least four presidential elections (and stealing one of them), has passed away.

"No politician in history – and I say this with great surety – has been treated worse or more unfairly.”

To which I reply


"Kennedy. Lincoln. Garfield. McKinley. Reagan. Jackson. Taft. Roosevelt (both). Need I continue?"

To be fair, Hinckley didn't shoot Reagan cause he thought Reagan was a dick, but instead because he thought it would woo Jodie Foster. So, it wasn't so much that he treated Reagan unfairly, as it was unfortunate that Reagan happened to be president at that time.

[Svata]

But you got my point.

Hey anyone remember the guy who was Bernie Sanders before Sanders, Dennis Kucinich?  Ever wondered what he's doing?

Answer he's on Sean Hannity's show lying that the Deep State is plotting to destroy Trump and "Our Country Is Under Attack from Within"

...I got nothing.

With the news about Trump's upcoming foreign trip and all the crap foreign leaders are having to do to "Trump-proof" the visits, I can't wait for him to visit India, since he can't be bothered to learn anything about the countries he's visiting and apparently he really likes well-done steak in ketchup.

So when he orders that in India...

[Cloud3514]

Well, if one of the Twitter accounts run by alleged White House staffers is true, he had Air Force 1 stocked with a shit load of frozen pizzas because he won't eat "foreign food."

I wonder if he'll try an Italian pizza.

*just beats my head into a wall*

That one is probably false because several news organizations report that the White House staff has made sure that he can get steaks and ketchup on every meal: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/05/19/saudi-arabia-offer-steak-ketchup-donald-trump-first-presidential/

(For the record, complaining about him using ketchup on a steak is just silly. It's no different than Jon Stewart raging that no one should eat pizza with a knife and fork because the NEW YORK way to eat a thin crust pizza is with bare hands.)

...Also NATO has been told that any presentations must include lots of visual material and people should talk no more than 3 minutes at a time because the most powerful man in the world has a short attention span and gets tired quickly. For the latter reason his daily schedule includes naps.

Disclaimer: If I had read that article a year ago I would have considered it a joke and one that is not only a low blow but also way too unbelievable. I mean, after calling someone "low energy Jeb" he now has to time his schedule with naps? He has clearly passed the parody horizon a long time ago. The credibility of USA is really suffering because of the POTUS.
