Discussion: Trump Abandons Infrastructure Council Amid Fallout From C'Ville Response

Businesses don’t want to offend their shareholders and customers by being seen in the same room as Trump, so of course they’re shunning these photo-op groups. (How many will continue to cut deals in back-room meetings is another matter, of course.)

The one group that isn’t avoiding Trump, of course, is the christianists. Not a single member of his Evangelical Council has left that group, nor even said a word against him. That speaks volumes about their morality, I’d say.

Apparently, “winning” means shutting down anything and everything that doesn’t go your way.

We are on the brink of an epic meltdown – a 300 pound toddler flailing about on the floor of the Oval Office, screaming bloody murder.

I hope someone has their iPhone.

Yet so many in his base still support him. They’re threatening civil war now if he’s impeached. But that might be the only way to get rid of them. Imprison them for sedition and insurrection, give them some basketballs to play with when they get bored, and throw away the keys.

Have you seen the Christianists’ audience…oops, congregations? Lost Causers, yes even the more northern and western ones. In Midwest, Plains and other states you need to ask where their grandparents were born.

(That’s a hint to MSNBC the next time they hang out in Youngstown, or rural OH)

The incompetent fat-ass wouldn’t even know how to hook up a home theater system and he thought he could run a council on infrastructure. Even before the Charlottesville PR fiasco, this was destined for disaster, and just like his other phony “economic” councils, he abandons this one, too. Of course, since he doesn’t want to alienate his evangelical base, he didn’t do it with “gay abandon”.
Hey, Donny John! I know you are feeling really depressed right now, and also trying to penetrate the bottom you have been already scraping by joining Julian Assange’s Twitter feed (and where, BTW, is the lovely and talented Glenn Greenwald while his hero’s shit has been hitting the fan?), so perhaps you should try “sheetcaking”. It’s the newest, coolest thing! It’s the ginchiest - and you’re the cause of it!

This would be a good time to put his art of the dealmaking into effect.

This Infrastructure “plan” was–and is-- nothing more than a massive privatization scheme embedded with huge corporate-welfare tax breaks. If it had gone forward companies represented on the Council might well have been presented with a License to print money. Since they can’t find members for the Council, it means corporate America is giving up on the Trump administration entirely…

Next he will take his ball and go home.

I fervently pray for this every day. (Which is saying a lot, as I am agnostic…)

‘give them some basketballs.’? Fuck that.

If it’s his ball, chances are he already stole it from someone else.

That’s too bad, because this guy is obviously so good at building bridges.
