Score one for Chuck.
Too bad none of the Sunday shows will invite Chuck on to say this.
Nope, it was the Dotardâs own goal all the way.
Say ⌠watch it Schumer, next youâll be telling us the emperor has no clothes.
Our host called it two weeks ago. Another Trump Fake Deal (TFD). Tough talk followed by backing down accompanied by lie about winning. Rinse. Repeat.
Is his base truly this stupid? âDeplorablesâ doesnât really capture it.
Maxine Waters called it, too. https://www.rawstory.com/2019/06/maxine-waters-praised-for-correctly-predicting-when-trump-would-cave-on-his-trade-war-with-mexico/
And all it did was stir the pot. Caused the stock market to flutter. Didnât solve any problems that he himself created, and yet heâll use it at his next ego rally.
The stock market figured out it was all bullshit a week ago. After he first opened his mouth and started making tariff threats it took a hit, but it quickly recovered last week when it sunk in that he is fucking crazy and nothing is going to happen. Like he always does. Make up some shit and declare victory, then strut around like a mean gelatinous orange peacock. The institutions that matter are learning to ignore him, just not out loud.
The Democratic leaders clsim that Trump is trying to goad them into impeaching him, but . . .
From Salon:
Last week, Trump vividly showed the world just how wrong Pelosiâs claim really was. After Mueller broke his silence with a brief public statement at the Justice Department, there was a sharp uptick in calls for Trumpâs impeachment. If the president wanted to goad Democrats into taking the plunge, it would have been the perfect moment. Instead, he did the exact opposite â changing the subject completely, as Elaina Plott noted at the Atlantic.
âWhenever a negative story comes around, his instinct is to pivot to immigration or trade,â a senior campaign adviser told her. Thatâs exactly how Trump responded, with a new announcement of immigration-linked tariffs on Mexican imports. âBy the end of a week in which the lies of the White Houseâs representation of the Mueller report became more apparent than ever," Plott writes, "reporters, pundits, and the stock market were all responding instead to Trumpâs latest attempt to curb immigration at the southern border.â
So it should now be clear to everyone that Trump is not trying to bait Democrats into impeaching him.
But it worked to distract from Muellerâs brief press conference.
When Maxine was a CA state legislator she helped sink a deal he wanted in LA involving public land which was intended for use as a school. This should drive him nuts.
Mexico 1
Trump 0
Everything remains constant.
In trumPPâs letâs make a deal world, there are winners and losers/suckers. In this venture he was the latter
So my first reaction was - âThink of the little onesâ.
My next reaction was - âEeewwwâŚâ
Stormy Daniels has morphed into a stand up comic giving performances in various venues. No, Iâm not making this up. She has a wealth of material based solely on her. . . relationship with PP and her willingness to talk about it.
I think she is a natural for it. Good for her.
Or The Dotardâs Butt Fumble.
All. The. Way.
Schumer scoffs. Cummings threatens. Pelosi protests. Meanwhile, Trump appoints 3rd radically conservative Supreme Court Justice. Yep, the GOP is quaking in its $1000 loafers at Schumerâs scoffing.
