What the hell did he just say?

Mensa Don just lectured that plebeian on his ideals for tax reform, progress towards achieving those goals and the economics behind it. Wasn't that obvious?
You see, his uncle was a professor at MIT so he had a very good brain. Trump has very good brain too. Big IQ.

Press sec. Sanders during WH press briefing:
"If you want to go after Gen. Kelly, that's up to you. But I think that if you want to get into a debate with a 4-star Marine general, that's something that's highly inappropriate," Sanders said.

And now we apply the Trump hypocritical tweet rule:

Don Lemon was his slave name.

شقيق الليمون is his real name.

Between the alien hostage and the one above, the GOP is riding the Galaxy Express 999. No tracks, no brakes!!!

Meanwhile, on the positively crazy side of public affairs

Repped for a ****ing Galaxy Express 999 mention

Uh,guys...



Officially seriously worried that the nut job is about to get 'his' war on...

Where's that tweet about going to war to save a failing presidency...

I just expect all these fervent Trump supporters to enlist if we get into another useless conflict.

I am hoping that this is a "precaution" in the event of a first strike from North Korea, though I believe the latter would be unlikely.
But in light of Trump's character, his statements and actions, it gives me great cause for concern. Concern for war that is. For what it's worth, I sincerely hope y'all don't get stuck in some war caused by the Dotard administration.

Y'all?

I think you mean "We"

That's the annoying thing about mutual protection agreements.

Now, tell me there are talks of rescinding these kinds of treaties with the US in case they're the aggressor on the European side (or at least staying out of the BS) because we're gonna need a safe heaven.

With Fox News' uncanny ability to find Navy SEALs, all Trump has to do is to order the Pentagon to switch channels to boost recruitment numbers.

Is this what's going on with the Niger situation?

Don't lose sight of the real scandal here:

Donald Trump added Chad to US travel ban because African nation had 'run out of passport paper'

Chad Removes Hundreds of Soldiers From Nigerien Region Affected by Boko Haram

US troops met with 'overwhelming force' in Niger ambush, official says

Ambush of U.S. soldiers in Niger goes unnoticed

A deadly ambush in Niger, and quiet in Washington

White House staff drafted Niger sympathy statement for Trump that was never released

It wasn't until nearly two weeks later that the President, an avid Twitter user, mentioned the deaths when he asked about them during an impromptu news conference Monday (10/16) in the White House Rose Garden

Trump distracts with lie suggesting Obama, other past presidents didn't call families of fallen soldiers

Now, a year ago, Exxon was ordered to pay to the Chadian government $76 billion in unpaid royalties.

Wouldn't be surprised if Tillerson had a hand in adding Chad, an inconsequential nation, to the list of banned countries.

Y'all really did elect a bunch of mafia cats, didn't you?

And before we leave the subject of "GOP disasters in foreign affairs" let's remember this

very proud of potus for finally releasing the proof that will link Ted Cruz's father to JFK's assassination.

maybe next he can release his tax returns.

All the LIBBIE TEARS LIBBIES HAVE CRIED this week over Don's perceived Disrespk of the troops is the real story. LIBBIES need to understand that MY PRESIDENT isn't a lying politician like LIBBIES ARE USED TO. HE worked in the COAL mines under Manhattan for 30 years so we have to cut him some slack. He didn't grow up with a silver spoon like OBUMMER. He had to EARN the million dollar loan from his father. Don's father earned his money by working extra hours in the Coal mines. He is a little rough around the edges but I've heard much worse locker room talk at COAL GANG chapter meetings. Whywesteppin and Noskey can confirm.

Correct.

Like the time Comrade Rusty started recounting how he had won over Miss Lahren... I can't share the whole conversation but here is some of it:

NT EXCLUSIVE

I did try and canvas her. She was registered Republican though. I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out grocery shopping. She wanted to get some groceries. I said, “I’ll show you where they have some nice kale.”

...

Yeah, that’s her. With the blonde hair. I better use some butter biscuits just in case I start kissing her. You know, I’m automatically attracted to snow bunnies — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet.

I can understand why it's not gonna happen but I'd like to see what they have on extraterrestrial life.

COMRADE BELGIUM are we paying a visit to the local weapons depot? They won't check our ids.

Since I had to turn over the Putin muskets to the LIBBIE POLICE, they were likely transfered to that depot.
I still have my pile of big beautiful COAL but no guns to defend it from the LIBBIE TREEHUGGERS
It's time to go get our muskets back for the Coal Gang

This is so dirty if all true. Needs to be uncovered and put on front Street.

My bad wrong thread

if?

hadn't clicked the link before but now I did and there's definitely fire behind this smoke.

if there's anything I've learned about trump, it's that it's safe to assume the worst because the truth is probably even worse that that.
