President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

If nothing else, give Trump credit for being able to read a room.

Police department Trump told not to be "too nice" has troubled history - CBS News

 

This has been quite a week in Washington, a week full of terror, intrigue, suspense, backstabbing and outright chaos. While we might not have been able to predict the particular contours of the catastrophe that complete GOP rule has been, we should have known it would turn out something like this.

Guess what, America: This is what you get when you elect Republicans.

It goes much further than their repugnant and disastrous effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act, but all the contemporary GOP’s pathologies could be seen there: their outright malice toward ordinary people, their indifference to the suffering of their fellow citizens, their blazing incompetence, their contempt for democratic norms, their shameless hypocrisy, their gleeful ignorance about policy, their utter dishonesty and bad faith, their pure cynicism, and their complete inability to perform anything that resembles governing. It was the perfect Republican spectacle.

Mean and dumb is one hell of a bad.combination.

 

Doesn't everybody annoy Fucko sooner or later?

Except the Pretty Princess, of course.

 

To be "fair", I'm pretty sure Trump himself is part of the leaking and all the yelling about leaks is just part of his constant shit-stirring.

 

In this case, seems to me this Chief of staff gig is similar to the military in that strong leadership is required.

 

Didn't a couple of Carter's top people allegedly have some issues?

 

Bannon seems like the only one who has a clue. He's staying out of the media. The environmental regs are getting crushed. He's getting agenda thru

 

Cuck alert. Not very SEC-like by the Gainesville police.

 

Make Giuliani Time Great Again.

 

Trump likes people dancing for his pleasure. The explanation about wanting strength is ad hoc bullshit. He'll fire the strong guy later when it pleases him and come up with some other reason.
