We know without question that Trump is a total ignoramus. This stuff is entertaining, but it isn’t news.

If you say something stupid once, it can be a mistake.

If you repeat it, you just underline your stupidity.

If you repeat it ad nauseum, you should get a straitjacket and a padded room.

Who let the kracken out? Loving this monologue by Colbert. He calls Bloatus a pricktator and says that Trump’s mouth is Putin’s dick holster.

It’s a thing, apparently, when you insult one member of the CBS family, John Dickerson, you insult them all and … payback …

I can’t wait until someone asks him about deals that could’ve averted WWII.

Has anyone thought to ask Trump what kind of solution/compromise he thinks Andrew Jackson would have achieved? Would it have included the complete abolition of slavery in the United States? I have to assume so, because I am certain that President Trump, a descendent of Lincoln, finds slavery abhorrent. But why not ask the President, and let him give us his historical insights.

You have to admit that a zombie Andrew Jackson would have changed everything.
You also have to note that he hasn’t said what would have been the solution offered by zombie Jackson. Trump always says that things can be easily changed without offering specifics. I guess he is afraid that if he offers specifics, other people will take his ideas and get the credit for preventing the Civil War.

They love this, this is the whole point. Why is Trump giving so many interviews anyway? Right? If you have a problem this severe then you don’t send the president out like a lamb to the slaughter. I think these insane PR fiascos are not an accident, they happen because this is the Trump presidency. It’s all a trolling of government and institutions.

“People don’t realize, you know, the Civil War, you think about it, why? People don’t ask that question, but why was there the Civil War? Why could that one not have been worked out?”

Classic Trump. People don’t realize. People don’t ask. Sub people with Trump.

He said people don’t realize how bad slavery was after visiting the African American History museum.

Yeah, I understand Frederick Douglass took him on the museum tour and filled him in on it.

Its news that Comrade Chaos is still stuck on a non-sequitur involving American history.

If only there was some kind of enema-to-the-brain that could flush out the bullshit in this man’s head and clear out the piles of garbage that flies are attracted to…
