Yeah, really.

This kerfuffle deflects away from his wifey, Louise Antoinette.

Yeah, I’m sure when he promised the best deal making, this was totally what all the screaming angry racists at his rallies had in mind.

Even a flunky can dream…
OTOH maybe what the Council of Economic Advisers really needs is a more awkward Yuckabee-Slanders

What it ultimately came down to, as Mnuchin explained, was, “The President wanted to have a deal ***victory, any victory, no matter how Pyrrhic.***”

Fixed.

And the fine-tuned machine rolls along.

Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin on Thursday said the White House is “very comfortable” with a deal President Donald Trump made siding with Democrats over the unanimous opposition of Republicans.

I don’t see how the opposition could be unanimous since there will have to be GOP votes for it to pass, and not every Republican was consulted on the plan. If the opposition was unanimous they would have had to all speak out against it, even if just as a caucus, and then vote against it.

Hey Mnuchin, it’s Trump’s show. If the script says you are happy, you better act happy. You wouldn’t want to get fired or anything.

“We are happy”, he said through clenched teeth, “very happy, indeed,…”

The funniest thing I read was a while back when someone noted Mnuchin had hopped on the alpha male bandwagon. Now he learns he’s just another manservant/doorman/pooper-scooper.

So… ah… there’s a pattern here, right? Every couple of days, someone from this so-called “Administration” is forced to make a hostage video.

I was worried, briefly, that this was in fact just the opening play in some grand scheme to achieve something outright heinous, and then I relaxed when I realized that scheme requires that the Lying Orange Shit-Stain be capable of thinking further ahead than a heart-beat or perhaps two, and we have no evidence that he’s ever done that.

Still, I remain as confused as the Republicans about what the hell just happened. This guy is like a ping-pong ball in a dryer.

Watching Trump’s make deals with the D’s might just be what the R’s need to start impeachment proceedings. :grin:
