There's no point in firing a guy to show your dominance and intimidate others if you can't claim credit for firing him! Hence, today.

this decision probably weighed as much on him as one of these:

his lack of self-consciousness is almost tasteful – this is why he'll never lose his base of support

I'm guessing Trump is lying as he does about everything, but Comey personally telling him that he wasn't under investigation would be...really unusual, right?

Josh Marshall:

Last night came word that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein reportedly threatened to resign Tuesday night when he realized that the White House was making him the key decision-maker in the firing of James Comey. This tells us a lot, but not necessarily what it might appear on first notice. The main significance is that no more than 30 hours in, the White House’s absurd cover story about firing Comey over his misdeeds toward Hillary Clinton – a lie that virtually everyone at the White House has now publicly repeated and vouched for – is coming apart at the seams. We can also see the staggering fact that after no more than two weeks on the job, Rosenstein’s public reputation, which was formidable, has been destroyed. He now joins a legion of Trump Dignity Wraiths, men and women (though mainly men) of once vaunted reputations or at least public prestige who have been reduced to mere husks of their former selves after crossing the Trump Dignity Loss Event Horizon.

I hate to admit it but I am 100% in favor of what Trump did to Christie and am sad he hasn't had a chance to do it to Cruz and Rubio.

These ppl are historically bad liars; it's an embarrassment next to the plausible-if-transparent WH lying of recent decades.

When asked by Sinclair Broadcast Group's Michelle Macaluso about reports that claim otherwise, he stated "no, I'm not quitting."

Macaluso: Did you threaten to quit?

Rosenstein: No.

still can't imagine a greater loss of dignity moment than Cruz phonebanking for the man who called his wife ugly and accused his father of killing Kennedy. but his presidency is still young.

Rubio apologizing to Trump for saying he had a small dick as Trump was bragging about the size of his dick was another classic moment.

I mean

The POTUS invited three Time reporters to spend a day at the White House on Monday, May 8, which culminated in a candlelit dinner in the Blue Room. The mag’s correspondents note that Trump was served what appeared to be Thousand Island dressing during the salad course while everyone else got a vinaigrette, and during the entree portion, the president received “an extra dish of sauce” with his chicken. Waiters brought Trump a Diet Coke while everyone else was offered water, and for dessert, he received a slice of chocolate pie with a double scoop of vanilla ice cream, while the rest of the guests only got one scoop.

Was the seat on Trump's chair an inch higher than everyone else's?

The Time reporters were then fitted with dunce caps while Trump adorned a crown of the finest silver. As they exited the dinner, a White House aide handed each reporter a card with a printed list of the approximated penis sizes of everyone at the dinner (most within the range of 2 to 3 inches, with the POTUS leading the pack at a whopping 412 inches).

why is "an extra dish of sauce" in quotes

is that a euphemism and was Trump's meal actually served on a naked, supine person

PJD PDJ DPJ (DJP), Thursday, 11 May 2017 17:41 (seven years ago) link

Yes, and the name of that naked, supine person? President Donald J. Trump. And that's...the rest of the story. Good [unintelligible]!
