also we can never forget this

Oh yeah.

They all deserve it but jesus

As a human it's painful for me to watch that kind of self-abasement.

Romney's "help me" look is so classic

The only time Trump has smiled so unaffectedly is over the taco bowl and KFC

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?

Honestly the reporters' dinner sounded like the better option anyway

Or the alternate shot from that evening:

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

extra dish of sauce =

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

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.

And a prime example of This Facial Expression no less

it's like day 100 of 1500

Guess the 'showboat' line basically confirms comey got shitcanned because trump was jealous of comey's screen time

When Comey met Trump at WH 2 days after inauguration, Trump immediately goes "there he is...this guy's even more famous than me!" har har har everyone laughs.

twitter saying that there are warrants being executed at GOP affiliated firms in Virginia?

Something in Annapolis, at least. Linked a tweet upthread.

This is the firm in Annapolis apparently being raided

Of course he'd be upset. His reputation is in tatters.

The 'about' page of said firm provides some info, I guess.

I'm sure YOU don't, but

"I don't see that as a conflict of interest," Sarah Huckabee Sanders says, of Trump asking Comey if he's under investigation.

— Josh Dawsey (@jdawsey1) May 11, 2017

"His interests were a desire to not be investigated and an interest in hearing from the Director that he was not under investigation. Where's the conflict?"

@tinyrevolution
Despite Kissinger's best attempts during his meeting with Trump, he was unable to recover The Precious

Well, that's certainly one of the more off-putting euphemisms for an erection that I've ever come across.

Sanders claimed she talked to 'countless' FBI agents unhappy with Comey. Beyond the propriety of that, when that was followed up on

.@SHSanders45 won't quantify what a "large number" of FBI agents that she's spoken to entails. Won't give a ballpark.

Strawmen don't stand still long enough to get an accurate headcount.

Whole LOT of fanfic right now on Twitter about a bunch of purported raids, the whole thing I'm sticking with at present is the Annapolis report simply because that came from a reporter who had confirmed with the FBI. We'll see.

Funny but there about the conflict of interest question when Sanders said something like "I agree with the fine legal minds who have turned their attention to this issue...over the last hour"

Ugh Im reading Louise Mensch's blog this is your fault Ned

I take no blame for your crazy actions.

lol 'which i knew anyway'

dinner dinner dinner dinner TRUMPMAAAAAN

He does seem to9 think he is still on the apprentice where firing people is actually a central design factor.

& the timing of the visiting Russians does just seem to speak of a level of sociopathic disconnect.

But that's probably obvious.

I can't think of a private sector workplace Trump wouldn't have been fired from about 15,000 times over based on his behavior. This 'Russians in the Oval Office' shit is like inviting some competitors to your office and letting them sit at your unlocked computer while you drop a deuce. Except, y'know, much more potentially impactful.

The situation, not the hypothetical deuce.

impactful deuce is what killed elvis iirc

With every statement, by himself or spokespeople, Trump just steps in it deeper and deeper. This is the biggest, momentum-driven tizzy since Sessions had to recuse himself (lotta good that did).

This presidency needs to end. For my sake -- its too stressful and distracting

Just wanna dump this in here while it's at front-of-mind for me: The whole Pence-would-be-much-worse narrative just makes me think, when was the last time you (meaning the person advancing that narrative at that moment) paid any attention to Mike Pence? The guy is as dumb as a brick. He's single-minded in the way a fucking tortoise is single-minded; any interview I've ever seen with him, he has stuck to literally repeating the same two or three simple declarative statements, with minor variation, until the whole thing is over. Confront him with facts that directly contradict what he's saying, and he'll just repeat what he said the first time. But that's not craftiness, it's a complete inability to improvise a thought. He has no actual knowledge or command of any issue. He's every bit as stupid as Trump, but he gives the appearance of possessing greater self-control because he's too dumb to have emotions, basically.

He's as stupid as purported constitutional scholar Mike Lee. Stupid people can only color within the lines, which is why the GOP secretly hopes with Trump gone their agenda will be more successful in Congress. It might be if the party hasn't been damaged. With Pence as president, though, the Republicans lose in 2020, just like they would have lost if Pence, Perry, Walker, the Plankton with a Hair Picce, or the other imbeciles and mouth breathers had been the nominee.

I want to believe that's true but Dubya got reelected.

Pence is def stupid, but he doesn't have the other fatal flaws that Trump does - the unpredictability, general ignorance of how govt works, wildly inconsistent positions, etc. Odds are he would be a more effective/malleable legislator that wouldn't throw up random roadblocks and crises in congress' way, allowing for the implementation of broader swathes of the GOP agenda. Dumb as he may be, he signed bills into law as governor, he is at least familiar with that process.
