We have suffered from lack of imagination.
In our wildest dreams we could not have imagined it would be this bad

If I had known, I would not have approved it, so it’s ok that it happened? Does that work in any other arena of adult life?

Who would’ve imagined evangelicals giving up their principles for a liar, a serial adulterer, a sexual assaulter who’s totally irreligious and who think these actions are only his style but not his values

This is why representatives of various media got so upset with Michelle Wolf. She called them out for making him what he is and now presenting him as conducting a normal but maybe eccentric presidency. I personally really like the part where she called out the women he surrounds himself with including Sanders and the Lust Object who are propping up a misogynistic sexual assaulter who’ll do his lying for him.

We in the Bay Area lost 900 devout souls to Kool Aids, but we don’t have a prayer of wiping out the fundies who multiply by the minute like rabbits.

There is no doubt that he wants to protect his communications with industry people who are advising him on just how to dismantle the EPA and make Pruitt a whole lot of money.

Let me tell you, I spent six weeks in the Mississippi Delta in the early '80s as a keyboard player in a Top 40 cover band, and there’s nobody hornier than fundies on this round earth. Bonobo chimps look at them and say dude, you got to get a hobby or something, you’re out of control.

From wiki:
Tristan Tzara describes this in the Dada Manifesto:[41]

TO MAKE A DADAIST POEM [or Trumpian Policy Strategy]
Take a newspaper.
Take some scissors.
Choose from this paper an article of the length you want to make your poem.
Cut out the article.
Next carefully cut out each of the words that makes up this article and put them all in a bag.
Shake gently.
Next take out each cutting one after the other.
Copy conscientiously in the order in which they left the bag.
The poem will resemble you.
And there you are – an infinitely original author of charming sensibility, even though unappreciated by the vulgar herd.

His FOX NEWS interview in which he discussed his staff, they work for a ‘very important person’ ie himself. Even Ed Henry of FOX NEWS was stunned and said, you mean they worked for you, right?

This is so disheartening. I mean as a political issue. It is really disheartening that these persons hired by DJT to run ‘our’ agencies are all so awful and entitled…and I guess the right does not care.

Well, Trump does get to operate his empire from the throne in his bathroom. Why not Pruitt?
