And Sleepy Joe Will Get The Credit: US Politics January 2021

at some point today I was watching CNN and got my "increasingly isolated" bell rung

When Trump is gone I will be reduced to hanging around recording studios asking the engineer if there's anything (like a vocal or an oboe track) that needs to be isolated more. Failing that I will hang around CDC virus research labs asking about their biosafety protocols.

Just begging someone, anyone to utter the magic words "increasingly isolated."

I used to get so fucking isolated to the point where I could barely breath it was such a rush and hot af

Why’d you have to go and get increasingly isolated?

One week after the riot, new video continues to emerge that somehow makes it seem even more horrifying https://t.co/3qF7RSu9le

not sure it was worth all that but some pretty crazy footage in there

what a bunch of fucking dorks

that footage makes it less horrifying tbh

They're pretending to be Paul Revere characters, calling on empty rooms to defend the constitution.

exclusive clips that make the scene seem scarier than it did a week ago

“I just think this is the logical conclusion of someone who will only accept people in his inner orbit if they are willing to completely set themselves on fire on his behalf, and you’ve just reached a point to where everyone is burned out,” a senior administration official said. “Everyone is thinking, ‘I’ll set myself on fire for the president of the United States for this, for this and for this — but I’m not doing it for that.’ ”

The horrifying stuff came before these scenes. It's like a KKK cocktail party after a hard day's work

cops seem real uh busy here
moron in full fucking roman cosplay stepping up for identification is a nice detail

I’ll set myself on fire for the president of the United States for this, for this and for this — but I’m not doing it for that.’ ”

jesus someone get Meatloaf a teleprompter already

the icing on the cake...

Trump has instructed aides not to pay Giuliani's legal fees, two officials said, and has demanded that he personally approve any reimbursements for the expenses Giuliani incurred while traveling on the president's behalf to challenge election results in key states. They said Trump has privately expressed concern with some of Giuliani's moves and did not appreciate a demand from Giuliani for $20,000 a day in fees for his work attempting to overturn the election.

no pardon for rudy then :(

rudy, you just weren't loyal enough, sorry

legal fees? for representing the president? get out of here

Sean Astin to play him in Oliver Stone biopic

rudy should be paying to work for trump

Speaking of cronies Trump has betrayed, did Chris Christie have anything to say about the riot?

How you get so rude and'a reckless?
Don't you be so crude and'a feckless
You been drinkin' brew for breakfast
Rudy can fail, yes, yes

Speaking of cronies Trump has betrayed, did Chris Christie have anything to say about the riot?

he's still a strong supporter of the president and his agenda, but he would vote to impeach over a carelessly importunate choice of words on the day of the coup attempt

christie was talking a lot of shit in an isaac chotiner interview the day before so who knows

"I can't imagine people in this country being so fearful of the future of a Biden presidency that they may be willing to commit violence like they did in the Capitol here in Washington, DC," she continued.

uh...yeah?

gee wonder what the state of things would be if t was still able to blast all media with his diarrhetic stream.

Stop your messing around;
Better think of your future,
Time to straighten right out,
Creating problems in town.

Rudy,
A message to you, Rudy.
A message to you.

Stop your fooling around,
Time to straighten right out.
Better think of your future
Else you'll wind up in jail.

trump’s penchant for stuffing the people who work for him is gross, but can you imagine asking for $20k per day after losing 87 cases in a row (or whatever the number is)?

He could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and taxidermy somebody and he wouldn't lose voters.

Now imagining Trump in a trophy hall full of taxidermied underlings.

(Xpost)

But seriously, folks, if you're working for Trump at this point you probably have a fetish for getting stiffed.

honestly, the year rudy has had....really amazing, borat was not even three months ago

better than getting stuffed

i bet trump really hated the hair dye melting off his head...that seems like the type of thing he would fixate on, that people were laughing at rudy

Whereas Rudy, the melting farting snot-smearing mess, seems utterly oblivious to the spectacle he's made.

There was the report of Trump watching TV and complaining that all the Capital coup crew looked "low class," but where has he been? His purportedly *high* class people, like Rudy, look like shit or loons. Those people at the Capital were no different from his usual rally crowds. What was the line Lou Reed gave for wearing sunglasses inside? Because he couldn't stand the sight of his audience?

Trump thinking anything is “low class” is inherently hilarious.

"These low class people need a high class Las Vegas makeover! Give them some coupons for the buffet and magic show we'll get to work."

Guys.

One week.

One. Week.

"It's been ... "

I wonder if he thinks he's getting his twitter account back after he's out of office?

Good morning?
