Discussion: McRaven Reiterates Defense Of Free Press After Trump Jab

Well said, but all wasted on Trump. Doesn’t anyone get it yet? Trump is an extreme narcissist. Criticism has no effect on him. He can’t be shamed. His default assumption is that there’s something seriously wrong with the person who’s saying bad things about him, and that’s an unshakable position.

A true leader and patriot has spoken.

True, but maybe there’s a ray of hope his statement will inspire others to stand up to the Manchurian Cantaloupe? I mean, I’m not looking to anyone in the GOP, but maybe a couple of people out there with some power. Then again I’m a Tampa Bay Bucs fan, so clearly my optimism has no basis in reality.

For trump a reckoning is coming and he cannot avoid it. Not revenge, but a reckoning.

As if Trump himself personally parachuted into Studio 54 and injured his bone spur ridden ankle.

“wouldn’t it have been nice if we got Osama bin Laden a lot sooner than that? Wouldn’t it have been nice?”

We could have, but a certain Republican President said he wasn’t concerned about him anymore.

Remember that?

Sure he didn’t parachute into Victoria’s Secret?

“Frankly,” Trump said, “wouldn’t it have been nice if we got Osama bin Laden a lot sooner than that? Wouldn’t it have been nice?” – Trumplethinskin Toadglans, speaking of General McRaven

Yes, it would have been “nice” if we could have gotten OBL sooner. Why, it would be even nicer if we could have gotten him during the Dubya maladministration. It would’ve been even nicer still if we had time travel and removed OBL before 9/11. But none of this is discussing reality. Now, to move the discussion forward into the not-too-distant future, I think it would be really “nice” to remove Trumplethinskin Toadglans from power. Wouldn’t that be nice?

One thing is for absolutely certain and that is that THE WORLD-WIDE ASSHOLE can’t accomplish anything other than laying blame, and as accomplishments go that is a remarkably minimal achievement. He’s utterly worthless as a leader, because he doesn’t lead. He’s nothing more than a punk-ass whiny bitch that’s really good at creating chaos (a very negative trait) and trying to get you to pick up the shattered pieces of his messes and all at your cost.

Fuck him.

When the jail cell door slams home on trump’s cell I’d love to be a fly on the wall to watch his whiny collapse.

Though there’s this triumph, there is also this tragedy.

I suppose now trump is stealing credit for getting OBL?

For the extreme narcissist, the reckoning never comes. He could land in a supermax prison for the rest of his life, and would still not experience any sort of epiphany.

He made more sense when he was still a civilian, but had to change his tone to please those 6 or 8 crazies who love to denigrate anything Obama or Clinton.
