This thread needs a stupid pun or obnoxious quote in its title. It's too hard to find in the list of updated threads right now.

agree that generic title started by a Britisher is unacceptable

is there a uk flag emoji we could edit in

or Cut Cut Goose, and that is how they can determine who actually gets the cuts, too.

good luck usa

dammit Mookie beat me to it

I'm going to start the December thread and it's going to be called 'USA Politik + Præsident Trump December 2017'. That way I'll have finished my ban right in time for the end of year nominations.

This past year all makes so much more sense if you assume that Trump has been trying really hard to look like a dipshit so that they'll just make him stop being president without forcing him to resign like a loser. It's a more believable narrative than the sad reality of the situation.

“One thing Steve wants Trump to do is take this more seriously,” the Bannon confidant told me. “Stop joking around. Stop tweeting.”

Has anyone tried using the magic word, maybe that's the trick.

this is the day trump became president

In a series of phone calls with Trump on Monday and Tuesday, Bannon told the president ...

So how is Bannon's role outside the WH any different than it was in the WH? Less oversight?

Different couch to sit on.

looks like Two Scoops is fucking up the House tax bill some more, tweeting about how it should include a repeal of the individual mandate for Obamacare lol

Meanwhile there was a document dump today of thousands of files related to the Navy SEAL raid that killed bin Laden and, well . . .

“YOU CAN’T GO ANY LOWER”: INSIDE THE WEST WING, TRUMP IS APOPLECTIC AS ALLIES FEAR IMPEACHMENT

lol headline NOT otm

we can and will go much lower

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/11/the-west-wing-trump-is-a-poopyhead-as-allies-fear-impeachment

we can and will go much lower

Now, see, this is a thread title!

Headline refers to his approval ratings not the moral state of the nation

But yes that is wrong too

The thought of a special prosecutor investigating Clinton, Mueller and Rosenstein while Mueller and Rosenstein are investigating Trump is pretty dark.

that scenario is p fucked up and yet makes perfect sense, I can see Trump going for it.

but who appoints the special prosecutor in this hypothetical scenario, Sessions?

re: thread title... feels weirdly appropriate since Weinstein & avalanche of other predators being outed pushed Trump out of top of the news for the longest stretch of time since the election.

karl thank u for posting my fav space ghost clip

“Jared is the worst political adviser in the White House in modern history,” Nunberg said. “I’m only saying publicly what everyone says behind the scenes at Fox News, in conservative media, and the Senate and Congress.”

lmao Jared rules

I honestly can't imagine that Trump's approval ratings could go any lower. Yes, he's said and done one stupid thing after another for the past year (and then also for decades as a public figure), but I'm pretty sure that's over now, don't you?

xpost it only gets better with time! hahaha

it's really funny, though, to imagine the "cut cut cut" debate happening in the midst of the atmosphere described in the vanity fair piece

I would imagine mounting scandal + a failure to pass tax reform would probably shudder off most of the remaining non-Pepes

Yeah, business as usual, but nonetheless it is pretty audacious for Trump's lawyers to reportedly argue in court re: the ongoing defamation lawsuit that him referring to his accusers as "liars" was just a political opinion.

i can't access those abottabad files :(

just feeling a little silly at the moment but seriously, imagine the shot of a random white house aide's face after watching a tense discussion of regarding the mueller investigation gradually morph into an equally tense debate about why it should or should not be called the cut cut cut plan

Trump administration is death by a thousand cut cut cuts.

it's hard to say what his floor is at this point, there's been a slow but steady erosion in overall GOP support but that's gonna bottom out at some point and whether it's 25% or 30% who can say. We are definitely going to find out sad lol.

Would've been wiser to name it the Measure Twice, Cut Once Bill.

Cut Hillary Dems Fake News Bill

If he fellated Steve Bannon while strangling a kitten on camera, his approval rating miiiiight fall to like 20%.

no it would have to be him fucking a kid, and not a 16-year-old. Shooting someone on 5th Ave. would make his numbers go up. also praising Allah, but I'm trying to be realistic here

if something like that came out they'd just say it's fake. the technology for that is getting there xp
