President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

So what I hate is people who use "so" before answering a question. Or writing a tweet. An irritating millennial tic.

 

Indeed.

"So" is the new "like."

 

We should all realize that the true reason behind the wall is for him to be-as he always says, even when it is inappropriate-honored. It is a timeless tribute to him, Donald J Trump.

To Pay for Wall, Trump Would Cut Proven Border Security Measures

Wish I could cut and paste the highlights! Lots of great points, the best being that the wall is not the best way to go. That is a lot of money for a tribute to an egomaniac.

 

wait, what
yeah, no

 

I never knew West Texas was sparsely populated ... I thought it was kinda like Houston.

 

Trump is the real 1st black ghetto president. Lazy. Can’t get to work on time. Calls out regularly. Says words that he doesn’t understand with a lot of malapropisms. 5 kids by 3 women and has no role in child rearing other than the occasional payment.

 

I had never seen this article before. I followed a link by a columnist referencing it as one of the better Trump articles he'd ever seen.

"Trump now “executes” by way of the The Junior Soprano Method. When he senses that his staff is trying to get him to do one thing, Trump defiantly does the opposite; otherwise he bathes in the commodified reactionary grievance of partisan media, looking for stories about himself. It takes days for his oafish and overmatched handlers to coax him into even a coded and qualified criticism of neo-Nazis, and an instant for him to willfully undo it. Of course he brings more vigor to the latter than the former; he doesn’t really understand why he had to do the first thing, but he innately and deeply understands why he did the second. The first is invariably about someone else—some woman, there was a car accident, like during or maybe after that thing—and therefore, as an asshole, he does not and cannot really care about it. The second is about him and therefore, as an asshole, he really, really does."

 

or white redneck loser from the south or white loser hick from the north?

 

Such brilliant writing back then ... tag team a "Russian" and an "Iranian" ... and jingostic hilarity ensues.

 

Mostly, I just like the pic.
