Putting him in one, yes.

thebigragu · February 26, 2018, 5:41pm

So said Patient Zero.

spacesaver · February 26, 2018, 5:44pm

I can think of at least one: the White House.

erik_t · February 26, 2018, 5:44pm

Please proceed, Mr. President (literally).

‘We’re Going To Have To Start Talking About Mental Institutions’

Hey, I’ve been saying that since the day Donald Trump got elected! (Rimshot please, Francine!)

OK, so which network takes this story and runs with it as-if there’s any serious thought behind the statement? If there were any truth in our media the headline would be “Idiot rambles again, story at 11”

junebug · February 26, 2018, 5:45pm

Right! The headline made me laugh out loud, though it’s no laughing matter.

dommyluc · February 26, 2018, 5:46pm

It’s really nice to see that the media was so correct in saying that the appointment of Totally-Not-Racist-Or-Fascist General John Kelly would put a leash on Donald Trump saying incredibly stupid things to said media.

“Think about mental institutions. Just don’t think about any funding from the Federal Government, believe me.”

southerndem · February 26, 2018, 5:47pm

Ok Open up the door and in you go…

erik_t · February 26, 2018, 5:47pm

But you used to be able to bring them into a mental institution and hopefully he gets help or whatever.

Eloquent as always, the leader of the free world. “Hopefully he gets help or whatever.”

Sounds like the deeply serious and concerned societal discussions you get from a couple of drunk philosophy undergrads on a Saturday night.

Dear Donald Dumbfuck,

Do you know who closed all of those mental institutions, throwing all of those mental patients out on the streets? RONALD FUCKING REAGAN! Now kindly go fuck yourself with a nine iron.

Love,

Ken in MN.

because, Freedom!

“You used to be able to bring them into a mental institution and hopefully he gets help or whatever.”

Or whatever…like in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest? That the help or whatever he’s talking about?

beattycat · February 26, 2018, 5:53pm

Be very careful what you ask for, Donald.

antisachetdethe · February 26, 2018, 5:54pm

I’m sure Malaria and her attorneys have been having that conversation, Dotard.

ncsteve · February 26, 2018, 5:57pm

Never leaves you doubting what’s gnawing away at his narcissist’s subconscious at any given moment, does he?

not_so_fluffy · February 26, 2018, 5:57pm

…but don’t worry, we will continue to allow them to have their guns…

jtx · February 26, 2018, 5:58pm

Seriously we have to talk about getting rid of this person.
Seriously.
