Scott Adams is in love again:

President Trump just gave ISIS its new name: Losers. (Short for Evil Losers).

If you think that’s no big deal, you’re wrong. It’s a big deal. This is – literally – weapons-grade persuasion from the most powerful Master Persuader of our time.

jfc

scott adams otm - i thought isis were pretty chill bros until trump cannily rebranded them as losers and the scales fell from my eyes

sad lol

maybe now they'll claim that the tax cuts will create....FOUR trillion higher revenue

As a mental experiment, imagine the CEOs of the major browser companies, including Google, Apple, Microsoft, and the open source products getting together to stop the spread of Loser propaganda. They could collectively decide to program their browsers to auto-convert ISIS or Al-Quaeda or other cool terror names to Evil Losers. If all the browser products agree, that’s all your teenager in Europe will see as he tries to self-radicalize. That would, in time, end recruitment for Losers.

stunning lack of self-awareness from the man whose twitter followers still have the word "deplorable" in their handle

Good point, frogbs; it seems to invite appropriation and counter-ridicule, cf. "deplorables." Hah lolz I'm such a LOSER Imma LOSE my intestines all over yr stadium/airport/shopping mall as I take out dozens of innocent bystanders; if this is LOSING I don't wanna know what winning looks like.

The art of losing isn't hard to master
though it may look like disaster

More importantly, the scales have fallen from their eyes. Their destructive rampage has been supplanted by a state of quiet contemplation on the possibility that they have, in fact, been losers this entire time, as 'The Sound of Silence' slowly fades up in the background.

She's not even trying to keep up appearances any more is she?

hey who knows where that hand has been

on the orb!

haha

It's a double dis, given Trump's documented fear of descending stairs.

Melania's (arguably) passive aggressive actions and gestures are lame. Let me know when she pushes him down the stairs.

The only arguable is whether the aggression is passive. That hand swat from yesterday was amazing and clearly very intentional.

But yes, I encourage her to up the ante.

I heard that when he learned getting to the top of Masada would take some effort, he tried to get Marine One to fly him up there and land at the site, but that got nixed so the visit got nixed. Stamina!

melania is definitely trying to kill him on those stairs

yeah he wanted to land his fucking helicopter on top of it

xp

you guys have it all wrong. yesterday she was giving him a low-five! today it's . . . it's . . . i am eager to read the rightwing spin on that

Melania had to brush that hair from her eyes, one of the most dangerous things about descending stairs is long hair in your eyes causing vision impairment.

right wing spin will be to turn against melania and her disgusting attempts to embarass Our President

xpost She should try just slicking it back on either side.

him wearing a kippah at the western wall was bad enough but the idea of landing a helicopter at Masada makes me want to puke

he was terrified to leave the country and sleep in a bed that was not his own, but it was actually the best thing that could have happened to him, at least in terms of distracting media coverage. a few days ago he seemed like howard hughes lining bottles of piss in a crumbling kingdom. now he's touching an orb and committing a series of funny but ultimately forgettable gaffes.

And he's going to come home beaming, like he's accomplished anything, when in fact the only thing he's accomplished is giving America a modest break. And then he's going to come back, tired and cranky, and start fucking up again, all while multiple looming investigations proceed.

wait when she doesn't take his hand does he just put his hand on her ass?

I thought the accepted protocol was, in fact, to lightly cup the buttock of a person who refuses to take your hand.

grab 'em by the pussy iirc

to lightly cup the buttock of a person who refuses to take your hand

this is close, but i think you're supposed to form your hand into a little cup, then gently give a tap so that the suction handcup makes a special noise.

seriously struggling with how loathsome that clip is

normally i'd find it pretty distasteful to revel in the failing relationship of someone, even in the public sphere. but in this case i feel like it's 100% appropriate.

well what would you do if you spouse was caught admitting they like to grab the genitalia of not you?

interesting chart in the middle of this vox article on obamacare repeal being the politically toxic thing for the GOP right now, rather than trump: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/5/23/15674450/paul-ryan-special-election

xp: Depends. Is Not Me hot?

unfortunately not surprised on the incredibly low amount of policy advertising from hillary

rebranding Isis now as a new idea is predictably stupid; there's ALREADY had a better insult.

Daesh, which folks were trying to get people to use for years now

i can't blame her campaign, really. when your opponent is this giant fucking world record asshole who is literally one of the worst people on earth and flaunts it at every opportunity, it's probably pretty tempting to just point at him and say "look. look at that. you're not going to vote for that, right?", and surely they did tons of focus testing that determined that "look at that. don't vote for that" was more effective then "i'm going to keep doing what barack obama did, basically" as a message. but the increase in personal attacks compared to previous campaigns is pretty jarring.
