Trump's America, March 2017: Using His Inside VOICE

> create 25 million jobs

are there 25 million unemployed in the states?

No, but once they eliminate the minimum wage, a whole lot of people will need some of those 25 million jobs. It's very forward thinking of the administration.

you guys need to pay better attention, Trump also promised to create 25 million people

And I don't even think they're counting the jobs that will open up once people start dying in droves in their newly deregulated workplaces.

come to think of it, why do we need people to deliver the mail? why can't people just go get their own damn mail? responsibility

there are lots of unemployed children iirc, prime demo to target for tremendous future jobs

This guy had a job!

every child will be guaranteed employment in the vast soylent green factories of trump's america

the best soylent, lots of flavor, you're gonna love em

you can really taste the poor

kinda gamey

has US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson (recipient of the Russian Order of Friendship) explained yet why Wikileaks made public the CIA's cyber-espionage protocols and tactics? if i were comrade combover, i'd tell US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson (recipient of the Russian Order of Friendship) to blame it all on obama, and sic chaffetz back on hillz pronto, then lift the Crimean sanctions just to show the liberals who's boss. major tax cuts are at stake!

Wait, are you saying you haven't heard any of the administration's vehement outrage towards Wikileaks over their dissemination of classified information? How could you possibly have missed it? They're completely livid about this outrageous violation and have vowed to take every possible step towards bringing Assange & co. to justice. As you would expect a presidential administration to do. You really should pay more attention to the news, friend.

Or maybe Turnip just made a jerk off motion at a camera while making a fart sound with his mouth. I can't remember which of those two things happened.

Just to the right of the TV set in that image.

Sam Brownback might get out of Kansas: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/03/sam-brownback-might-not-be-governing-kansas-much-longer/519165/?utm_source=atltw

It's non sequiturs like this that really underlines to me how shitty republicans are: Brownback suffered his latest blow last week, when the Kansas Supreme Court ruled that the state’s funding of public schools violated the constitutional rights of minority students.

I'd been trying to discern when exactly the parties initially flipped and I had assumed it was a gradual process but based on something I was reading yesterday it sounds like it was more or less an instantaneous, catastrophic shift at the '64 GOP convention? And almost entirely (and unsurprisingly) because of race?

recently flipped out over deranged facebook feeds, too

http://www.cjr.org/analysis/breitbart-media-trump-harvard-study.php

No. Racism doesn't exist in this country.

it isn't one moment, i wdn't say

don't forget there was a race brouhaha at the '64 Dem convention (two competing Mississippi delegations, one w/ Fannie Lou Hamer)

xxp

I mean, I get that it was a confluence of a number of factors, but it seems like even a lot of GOP-ers were caught off guard by the sudden shift towards Goldwater extremism.

Nixon cut deal with Strom Thurmond in '68. That helped.

you still have liberal/centrist Republicans (like Jacob Javits) through the '70s

huh in that CJR stuff both beetbort and huffpo are a lot bigger in share qty than I woulda guessed vs old/"regular" media. sorta think huffpo seems more disproportionate to me.

CJR could have also pointed out that breitbart infected the NYT and WaPo itself - by funding the work that produced Clinton Cash, which the WaPo and NYT then gained 'exclusive' publishing rights to the early scoops.

hard to believe huffpo could still have much influence when every link takes literally an hour to load

works fine over here

why must i suffer

He's already tweeted his apology to his district:

Just before Paul Ryan's PowerPoint presser he was doing his actual area of expertise: fundraising w/insurance lobby

jobs report :

“In the past, the president has referred to particular job reports as phony or totally fiction,” a reporter asked. “Does the president believe that this jobs report was accurate and a fair way to measure the economy?”
“I talked to the president prior to this, and he said to quote them very clearly,” Spicer said. “They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now.”

And the assembled journalists had a hearty laugh, too. The clip is fucking disgusting.

aw just havin a laff about their collective sham

"They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now." "They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now." "They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now." "They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now." "They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now.""They may have been phony in the past, but it’s very real now."

It's just more of the extremist tribalism this administration traffics in. That thing the other side did was awful but it's amazing when we do the exact same thing. There's no more nuance to it than that, and people who are inclined just eat it up.

7/4/16 -- Happy Birthday, America / first tranche of Hillary's emails sent out by Wikileaks

7/22/16 -- DNC's emails published by Wikileaks . . . three days before the DNC convention

10/7/16 -- 'Access Hollywood' "grab em by the pussy" tape leaked / third tranche of DNC emails leaked . . . an hour after the 'Access Hollywood' tapes hit the press

3/7/17 -- Wikileaks exposes all the CIA's cyberwarfare tricks . . . two days before Trumputin pal Nigel Farage visits Julian Assange

if this is what it takes to finally get to the bottom of barry soetero's real birth certificate, then fine

cool a US Attorney purge

this is only unusual inasmuch as its being done heavy-handedly and incompetently (ie predictably)

I wouldn't care -- every administration does this and why not -- if the attorney general weren't a colossal dick who's going to appoint more colossal dicks.
