Trump, May 2017: 100 days of [unintelligible]

Trump never strategizes about anything. He appears to enjoy tossing blame for his fuck ups to the nearest chump. I'm sure he'll find a way to that here as well.

Why does it keep working?

Greg Miller on CNN stands by WaPo story "absolutely"

If it's false why did Nat Sec team run to CIA and others to alert them, he asks.

you think this administration is "working"? they're stumbling ineffectually from one self-inflicted wound to another

xp

it's not working, it's disastrous for him.

It "works" so long as there are still suckers willing to stick their necks out for Trump in exchange for a stab in the back.

^^^

but that's just in terms of him staying in office/out of jail, not "working" as a Presidential administration should. Dude his not accomplishing much of anything policy-wise.

yeah, its working because youre not short of chump

Oh here's some fun

Per @TreyYingst, Bannon, Mike Dubke, Sarah Sanders and Spicer walked into cabinet room just now. They did not look happy.

Reporters in lower press don't know which side of hallway to lean near because so much going on during tense evening.

— Adrian Carrasquillo (@Carrasquillo) May 15, 2017

ok lolz

Hahah

WH comms staffers just put the TVs on super loud after we could hear yelling coming from room w/ Bannon, Spicer, Sanders

— Adrian Carrasquillo (@Carrasquillo) May 15, 2017

Wow

Sarah Sanders just came out and said they'll have nothing more tonight beyond McMaster statement.

But what about when the president gets mad about what he's seeing on cable news? https://t.co/66IH4utI8J

are those three doing the yelling or being yelled at

90 seconds with no questions should put a lid on this, good job

i still want one of those insane max headroom broadcasts from trump tower

You do you, Sarah

Sarah H. Sanders told reporters she didn't know anything about yelling. https://t.co/1CNSSomWKY

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if they went in there and just primal-screamed it.

She don't know from no yelling

Not even Reagan was dumb enough to lose his savoir faire as often as Trump has.

"lose"

"his savoir faire"

Can now hear yelling coming from room

I hope someone out there is figuring out the captions for another Downfall "Hitler Reacts" video.

Alfred's favorite congressperson has thoughts!

The importance of carefully handling classified information was one of the big lessons of 2016 . All leaders should be held to same standard

can anyone think of a dumber head of state? i mean, historically not currently.

There's been a few royals who, through no fault of their own, were inbred, especially the Habsburgs, but I can't think of many who were ELECTED.

The transcendentally stupid Jeffrey Lord is speaking now.

Corker says White House "in a downward spiral."

Methinks a certain senator is a nine inch nails fan

Trump def hurt himself today.

To see if he could feel

lol

Treeship! I laughed!

History was made today

"lose"

"his savoir faire"

dude, Reagan was an actor. He studied chalk marks on the ground.

History is made at night.

The ugly background to this is that very large numbers of Americans pay little attention to this stuff and if the sole takeaway from their brief moment of paying attention is "Washington D.C. is in an uproar over Trump's actions", then quite a few of them will assume Trump must be doing something right if it upsets all the D.C. insiders.

The one massive self-inflicted would Trump has suffered that seems to have genuinely jolted his followers is the bag of shit called the AHCA. Health care is very real and immediate to people and Trump promised them the moon and stars and dancing unicorns, not 24 million poor folks kicked off coverage and massive cost increases for 55-65 year olds. That is a betrayal people grasp quickly and thoroughly.

AHCA has not jolted his followers fyi

Lord A., all I meant to do was question whether T. has any knowledge to lose.

84% of the GOP approves of Trump

they don't know what they approve of

The president should resign.

Resign? He'll be doubling down on Twitter in a moment, giving out street addresses of intel contacts in Raqqa

AHCA has not jolted his followers fyi

Not like ABC cancelling Last Man Standing.

Loving this story

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/05/15/white-house-staff-hiding-as-russia-chaos-engulfs-west-wing

Especially

Some administration officials who supported Trump during the campaign said they were appalled at his apparent divulging of U.S. secrets, and considered it a break from his “America First” campaign mantra.

“With news like this I’m beginning to wonder why Trump ran in the first place and if he really cares about the country,” said a senior Trump appointee involved in counter-ISIS policymaking. “I miss candidate Trump. Now he’s just a pathetic mess.”

“I doubt he did it to collude [with the Russians]. I think he’s dumb and doesn’t know the difference,” a former FBI official who worked aspects of the Russia investigation told The Daily Beast. “He thinks he’s arranging some business deal except that he’s not.”

“I miss candidate Trump. Now he’s just a pathetic mess.”

go fuck yourself

I think he’s dumb and doesn’t know the difference,” a former FBI official who worked aspects of the Russia investigation told The Daily Beast. “He thinks he’s arranging some business deal except that he’s not

This I buy, above all else.

Anyway, I was thinking just this on the way home

Given McMaster is quoted denying things not being alleged in the story, wonder if he was a source.

Just talked to friend in IC who has, until now, pointedly dismised anti-Trump hysteria.

He is foaming at mouth w/rage over tonight's story.

"Shit like this is the end of Five Eyes if it goes on. He's not a traitor, he's a stupid f*****g idiot who can't be trusted to keep secrets"

— Jeff B/DDHQ (@EsotericCD) May 16, 2017

Predicting ANYTHING strikes me as a fool's game, but I kinda have a feeling that the last seven days will turn out to be a particular tipping point.

He's not a traitor, he's a stupid f*****g idiot who can't be trusted to keep secrets

wow amazing who could have seen this coming???????????

stoked for the coup while he's out of the country next week

wow amazing who could have seen this coming???????????

yeah seriously anyone who thought Trump was working some street smart rope a dope angle up until now is a drooling fucking moron, on par with the baby-brained idiot POTUS
