From the newspaper everyone loves to hate

The president looked. He half-smiled. He pointed. Looking was fun. The same instant gratification — retinas be damaged — that drives him to Twitter at all hours, seeking appraisals in real time. The same heat-seeking impulse, validated anew, to insert himself into a viral news event without fail, with the timed precision of an astronomer.

Does this mean he’s gonna be on all the fucking channels? That’s all he wants anyway. He really doesn’t care fuck all for the military or Afghanistan. I bet he couldn’t locate it on a fucking map. The only thing he wants to command are our television sets, which he’s been attempting to do since November (actually before that).

He’s holding this unpresidented address to tell us he sending 4000 more troops, I heard. If this doesn’t end with him doing the old soft shoe, I want my money back.

Two of at least six thought farts he sent in opposition to the Afghanistan war.

@j.dave Being a war president will make him relevant again.

From WAPO.

One of the ways McMaster tried to persuade Trump to recommit to the effort was by convincing him that Afghanistan was not a hopeless place. He presented Trump with a black-and-white snapshot from 1972 of Afghan women in miniskirts walking through Kabul,…

That’s one way to pique his interest.

Since Donnie is so tight with his handlers in Moscow, why doesn’t he just request the Russian playbook that helped them totally kick ass in their Afghan Adventure?

So.Much.Winning.

I understand Gallup now offers a new response for the daily tracking poll:

What is your opinion of the statement, “Donald Trump is doing a good job as President”?

  • Agree.
  • Disagree.
  • Oh, hell no!

Trump Becomes President Tonight!!! Of course, he’s got another ego-building rally tomorrow…so, it won’t last for long (and by tomorrow he will be on to other things - like grievance whining - leaving Afghanistan strategy behind).

Well…while we’re all sitting here waiting…a prelude to an interlude.

Top that Donnie boy…

Geez Luiz…what’s with all the fucking American flag bunting??? Looks like a parade is about to come on through…

What an asshole.

dubya got re-elected party because he’d taken us to war, scared the crap out of everybody and they bought into the theory that only he could see us through the turmoil of war. The one he chose to make.

Has he praised the brave men in uniform who fought against the Allies in WWII?

That’ll go over really well at Fort Myer.

Trying to make up for his blown response to Charlottesville.

I hope someone fucks with his teleprompter. He wouldn’t know what the fuck to do at that point.

At least the show I was watching will continue in its entirety after the speech.

It was Bachelor in Paradise.

Don’t judge me. :wink:
