But of course he did.
Complete lack of ethics, morals and trustworthiness – that’s the Current Occupant.
“And I can get you a tee time at just twice the normal greens fee, cart extra, plus a minimal $1,000 service charge.”
There are tens of millions of citizens of this country who’ll never entirely get the vision the founders had, how the abstract principles are meant to play out in daily life, all that. Not bad people, just not that thoughtful about those things. But everyone at all honest-minded knows a venal vulgarian like this isn’t the right kind of person to be President, knows on an intuitive level he’s wrong for the part. So even though a lot of people who shrugged and voted for him may never understand the danger he poses, they may well decide at some point that he wasn’t what he claimed and that he’s just a loudmouth slob. Not all, but not all abandoned Nixon either. Only enough did.
Hey, if he’s talking about the golf club, he’s not bringing us any closer to nuclear war. Until he’s gone we may have to be satisfied with small victories.
I watched the faces of the assembly members when they heard what Trump was saying. It was the international language of WTF?
Well , he IS a Dickhead .
He can count to four? Who knew?
As of this morning he can count to 280 as Twitter now will allow that many characters for his semiiterate ravings.
Or maybe there’s an App for That.
Head Nurse Kelly sighed to himself when Donnie plugged Bedminster. “After that great John Wayne- Pork Chop Hill and Inchon speech we wrote for him…he goes off script to put in a plug for his fucking golf course…”
And Tillerson thought to himself…“FM”
Yes, GOP, please, please keep embracing this guy.
Thanks for last night’s election results, BTW.
In typical Trump fashion he’s throwing Gillespie under the bus, too.
Nixon had all-time low approval numbers at around 24% when he resigned from office, so yeah, that means 24% still stuck with Tricky Dick. That might mean we have a couple more months of tRump before we get there…but we are well on our way. His numbers have only gone down from inauguration day, never up for any sustained period that I know of. His thoughtless, self-promoting motor-mouth and his divisive impulsive tweets have sped things up yugely.
Alas, he threatened North Korea, too…
My ever-optimistic view is that every moment he did not spend rattling missiles in Korea was a net benefit.
‘it’s just the latest blatant attempt to promote his own private businesses from the platform of the presidency, a move that’s been met with broad criticism since he was elected.’
Again, where is Richard Painter & the CREW folks!?!?! Anyone out here have visibility on where that Emoluments/Ethics lawsuit is?? Please tell me it is on the docket somewhere!!!
WTF is right. I’m watching Donald give his speech with a little smile on my face as he plods along, trying his very best to look presidential, and he’s doing okay, Jr. Bush okay mind you, but then he goes off the rails and promotes his gold course - and I started laughing. Even when Trump tries, he still manages to fuck it all up.
Always reminds me of a 10 year old speaking in public for the first time
Grifters gotta grift. I’m surprised it took him this LONG to be so utterly blatant.
