How’s this for RugYanking?
I think the word I’m looking for is “Sad.”
And adding to the comment about things turning grave the last week @centralasiaexpat all of what you said plus a “green light” from the ruling party in congress that they will not interfere.
Aren’t they in charge of US Climate policy?
They’re probably busy, don’t cha think?
Well now that he has committed the ultimate distraction equivalent of shooting a guy, his wife and child on Fifth Avenue after boasting “Watch. I can randomly pick a family and do this to them for no reason”, we will see if it has any measurable effect on his support from his Republican supporters.
And the white wankers in Appalachia & the Rust Belt believe that Trump is going to help them. Trump doesn’t give a rat ass for what happens to the staff that’s close to him,much less for a fat, over-the-hill guy in Dogpatch.
This is his modus operandi. McMasters should have known what was coming.
And now, two formerly upstanding men of integrity have been ruined by the dignity wraiths…
Roll the buses! Toss them deplorables underneath!
They are busy alright, there is plenty to steal in this country …
In his case, yanking that pouf would mean uncoiling it. It would be interesting to see how long it is and where it originates.
Donald J Trump is mentally unstable and we really need to deal with that and not keep pretending that what he is doing is “normal” or okay! This guy is nuts and the reasons why Republicans aren’t dealing with this are disgusting!
Trump is mentally unstable and he needs to get serious professional health to deal with his mental issues and get out of the WH. He can’t handle it!
I’ve seen it phrased as ‘saving lives’…what a crock! What about the
life it costs of the source? What about the other lives that would have
been saved by the additional intel he could have provided? What about
the other lives that could have been saved by the other intel from other
services that will not be shared with us now because our president
leaks like a sieve?
All valid points. But the GOP doesn’t care and are defending him over this. So the base will not have to confront anythibg much less have to abandon supporting him or the GOP.
“As President I wanted to share with Russia […] “Humanitarian reasons […]"
What on earth does he think he’s saying here?
Today, on a very special episode of “Why You Ackin’ So Cray-Cray,” the White House staff comes face to face with the very real dangers of mental illness and drugs. Remember, teens, crack is whack.
“The problem with that is he’s using up the credibility of a number of people inside the White House who’ve spent a lifetime building up their credibility. And they seem willing to be putting that on the line for somebody who doesn’t back them up.”

This is a real mystery.
That bit of drivel is that he is claiming he shared the classified info, that we don’t share with our allies mind you, to help Putin save Russians.
Russia > our allies
Let that sink in.
From the story, this is how bad it is:
So why would a Trump supporter leak a damaging story about the president to multiple news organizations? According to Erickson, it’s the only way to get Trump to change his behavior.
“The President will not take any internal criticism, no matter how politely it is given,” Erickson explains. “He does not want advice, cannot be corrected, and is too insecure to see any constructive feedback as anything other than an attack. So some of the sources are left with no other option but to go to the media, leak the story, and hope that the intense blowback gives the President a swift kick in the butt.”
Additionally, Erickson’s source claims that “what the President did is actually far worse than what is being reported” and that “the president does not seem to realize or appreciate that his bragging can undermine relationships with our allies and with human intelligence sources.”
As someone said, the other day (paraphrasing) “the illusion of knowledge is so much worse than ignorance” (because at least the harmlessly ignorant recognize that they are ignorant).
