Me, I can actually remember when America wasnât mis-run by a shithead?
Thank you for dropping the asterisk TPM. It wasnât deserved.

Let me take a moment to speak up for the word âshitholeâ which is seeing its reputation damaged by association with Donald Trump.
perfect.
. . . asking U.S. officials for a formal explanation of the remarks.
The explanation is rather obvious: Trump is a racist, boorish asshole. QED.
Gotta wonder if he just couldnât help himself (likely), or if this was a deliberate move to distract from a soon to appear Mueller announcement? Either way, BLOTUS is a shithead .
Just seeing âshitholeâ on the CNN chyron in a continuous loop is, itself, mind-boggling how far we have sunk as a country under Hair Furor.
I am embarrassed to be an American todayâŚ
It took THIS to spark international outrage against a man who has been proven to be an obviously racist fuck for about 45 years now?
I have read just about every post to every article about Trumpâs comment, and I do not recall (kinda like Senators Cotton and Perdue ânot recallingâ what Trump said during the infamous immigration meeting, which is a little like ânot recallingâ that Hitler made speeches saying he hated the Jews) anyone posting the famous âCasablancaâ gambling meme. So here it is!:
Can Rep Renacci beat Sen Brown (D-OH) if the very Republican Columbus Dispatch prints this?
Renacci defends, Kasich condemns Trumpâs âs-holeâ remark
âIâve said all along the president many times says what people are thinking,â Renacci told Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade.
Itâs a line the Wadsworth Republican has used repeatedly when asked about Trump, but itâs the first time Renacci has applied it to a statement widely condemned as overtly racist.
The ad writes itself: So this is what Renacci is thinking?
Well, those are why he thinks these countries are shitholes. The reason he made the remarks is because he is sliding well down the slippery slope of dementia.
No filter, no filter, youâre the filter.
Clearly, this debacle puts American ambassadors on the seat. And if they were appointed by Rumpâs regime then I have zero sympathy.
It also puts countries like Norway in a weird & uncomfortable position of having to distance itself from what used to be a once great nation now reduced to a status even lower than South Africa.
Actually, I believe the majority of Norwegians probably think itâs pretty goddamned funny:
Yep, here it is againâŚ
Yes, I also seem to dimly recall, with my foggy, misty-watercolored memory (H/T: Babs S.), that long ago era ofâŚthirteen months ago!
Iâve been embarrassed for more than a year.
Trumpâs gonna run the country like a business?
At this point what corporation or organization would NOT have fired Trump by now?
I cannot wait to hear Benjamin Netanyahuâs defense of The Donald.
I guarantee, that will be comedy for the ages.
NewsCorp! LOL!
Well, my preferred âofficial responseâ would be to impeach or 25th amendment him.
(there is some other dimension in which this is happening⌠I may be spending a good portion of my time there)
