Trump, May 2017: 100 days of [unintelligible]

Unless Comey's testimony directly leads to an impeachment I think he's pretty much bound to go down in history as the dude who directly cost Hillary Clinton the election.

when did Chris Matthews say that

Between Kim Dotcom convincing Sean Hannity he knows who killed Seth Rich and Louise Mensch and Claude Taylor saying that the Supreme Court has already impeached Trump, it's a GREAT day for morons.

rehire Comey IMO

lol no, get someone even dumber in then dismantle the fuckin FBI

the dude who directly cost Hillary Clinton the election.

no, that guy's name is Trump i think

People have got to know whether or not their President's a Mork. Well, I'm not a Mork.

It is as if some unseen adversary has copied Mr. Trump’s own velocity and ferocity in an attempt to destroy him, several people close to the president said.

It's as if that unknown adversary were the same size and shape and occupied the same physical space as Mr. Trump, mimicking his voice and accessing his Twitter via unknown means. Oh, if only we could identify this vile spectre who has constantly sabotaged our president's every effort over the course of his adult life!

i watched the roger stone documentary today

there is nothing to be learned from it. all of roger stone's "dirty tricks" were stupid. he isn't "machiavellian" in any real sense because the end result of his machinations isn't governing, or advancing any actual interest, it's just getting attention for himself and his clients and making his opponents look bad.

the whole story of the republican party, from 1968 to now, is just an incredibly stupid story, and now with trump it's culminated in the dumbest way possible.

Yes.

use 'culminated' at your own risk, Treesh.

rock bottom might still be in the distance.

Once it hits rock bottom is it going to 12 step its way back to sobriety

They've steadfastly avoided the first one for a few decades

it's culminated sorta like The Day of the Locust

I see Sheriff Clarke likes the copy/paste function.

Oh the gods missed an opportunity

does anyone else think that it is somehow more surreal to see trump in an international context? there's something about seeing the process, the entertainment laid out for him, the dignity it seems to confer upon him, and so completely undeserved

― Treeship,

We've been saying this here since at least 2002

tbf it would be impossible to say that before November 2016

http://www.aclumich.org/article/aclu-michigan-statement-trumps-refusal-turn-over-giuliani-memo-ordered-court

he White House has refused to release a memo from a commission established by Rudolph Giuliani that was created with the express purpose of creating a legal rationale for the Muslim Ban. Under a federal court order, the memo was to be produced on Friday, but the Trump administration objected late Friday night, claiming, among other things, that a federal court cannot require the President to release documents.

throughout the entire spectacle he has come across like a naive beaming mars attacks! character

lol

he definitely looks like a doofus, but having it spill out physically onto the world stage feels deeply wrong, like a story we've been telling each for so long it's become mythical has spilled out onto the world stage, or shit, actually more like having someone else describe your dream to you. if we could get some booing or general protest footage it would make me feel better.

they still throw rotting produce in these countries, yes

the dignity it seems to confer upon him, and so completely undeserved

even moreso than "Oscar-winning director Mel Gibson"

Oscar winning directors aren't feted by Saudi Royals before signing arms agreements worth hundreds of billions.

Now who's being naive, Kay?

feting by Saudi Royals before signing arms agreements worth hundreds of billions is false dignity, surely

a cheap holiday in other people's sovereignty

hard disagree that trump looks out of place on this trip - these countries have thousands of years' experience hosting foolish blowhard dignitaries from foreign lands, smiling with them, slapping their backs, serving their favorite dishes, flattering them etc. trump fits right in.

wh may block mueller from investigating kushner & manafort - http://mobile.reuters.com/article/idUSKCN18F2KK

Tracer otm

Also, he is currently in one of the most conservative autocracies on Earth. He fits right in.

Isn't any block or misdirection of Mueller going to look suspicious in itself?
