Trump's speech on Islam is being drafted by Stephen Miller

OMG, he's extending the impish trolling of his cabinet appointment strategy into the realm of foreign policy. Guess we're dead, huh.

It's all troubling.

Treeship, Wednesday, 17 May 2017 15:09 (seven years ago) link

what are the odds that at some point while writing this speech, Miller turns to Bannon and says "Fuck it, let's do it and be legends, man"

hes not crazy

i think theres degrees of racism between trump and 'firing nuclear weapons at arabs for lulz'

spud called maris (darraghmac), Wednesday, 17 May 2017 15:14 (seven years ago) link

a nuclear North Korea would be fine if they don't plan on ever using them and its a deterrent but if they start wanting to teach nearby countries a little lesson - I guess its armagideon tyme

Violet Jynx, Wednesday, 17 May 2017 15:16 (seven years ago) link

100%. They're about to "shift the conversation" to what really matters, "radical Islam."

They'd rather provoke a diplomatic crisis on the basis of a "hard line on Islam" than stay mired in this Comey stuff.

i think its well established that dem politicians/infrastructure/rank and file suffer from that out of towner affliction of meeting the eye of the ranting lunatic on the street and then following through and engaging

thats why clintons emails and head are worth 10x of trumps or bushs obvious deficiencies, they react to lunatics

I think the assertions about Trump's dementia are possibly wrongheaded. I don't think we're seeing a degenerative neurological condition but rather the monstrous end result of someone who has spent decades in a vacuum where nothing they say or do has any real negative consequence and who's had the means to ensure that his ever-swelling ego was never challenged in any meaningful way. A good behavioral psychologist could probably reproduce this beast in his well-hidden South American lab.

Headline/opening paragraph gives you the gist.

Meantime:

http://www.politico.com/story/2017/05/17/tax-reform-wall-street-238474

Executives, lobbyists and Wall Street analysts increasingly believe the administration — distracted by repeated crises while facing a short and crowded legislative calendar — will be unable to deliver on Trump’s promise to slash corporate and individual tax rates this year and ignite significantly faster economic growth.

The main hope now in corporate America and on Wall Street is that the White House and Congress manage to bypass a scary fight over raising the nation’s debt limit this summer, keep the government open and avoid any major foreign policy crisis.

About that.

Buried in here - intel officials don't think McMaster understood significance of intel Trump shared when he heard it https://t.co/qaqAK0Skla

Specifically:

White House counterterrorism adviser Tom Bossert, who was not in the May 10 meeting, learned about what Trump said when he read notes immediately afterward, a U.S. official with direct knowledge told NBC News. He immediately called officials at the CIA and the National Security Agency to report a security breach, the official said.

National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster told reporters Tuesday that what Trump shared was "wholly appropriate," and that Bossert acted "maybe from an overabundance of caution."

McMaster, a serving Army general who is not steeped in counterterrorism, did not immediately realize the impact of what Trump had said, the U.S. official recounted.

We are in a war, and PatriotHole is a cannonball in that war, rocketing at the face of the enemy. That enemy is everyone who is not PatriotHole. PatriotHole is the general’s horse, and the general strokes the horse so nice, oh yes, oh yes. And does the general brush the horse’s nice, long mane? Friend, you know he does and he DOES get the knots out of the hair and the horse loves him for it WITH his most precious horse’s kiss.

You are either on our side or you are the tyrant. You are also enslaved. Some of you may also be stuck in some sort of quicksand. If God hadn’t accidentally burned His hands off in that vat of acid, He would click on PatriotHole a billion times per second. So do His work, and America’s work, and explore the red-blooded truth. Your unborn, non-aborted children will scream “thank you” across the ages.
