Individual-1 is now discussing renaming NAFTA when they change this because there are so many “negative” associations with it.
he is trying to make this sound like a big boon to the farmers.
barf.
But the part where the he couldn’t get the phones to work was magic!
One more thing…his tanning bed is making his skin match the brown leather chair he sits in behind the resolute desk.
HA!
Trump tries to do anything fails!!!
Isn’t the standard protocol for calls between leaders to involve aides making the contact, making sure everything is ready and then putting the big cheeses on?
There’s that fine-tuned machine again. Fine tuned, yes, but balanced with a certain creative spark that inspires a lot of half-assed improvisation and pratfalls on really basic stuff. It’s like nobody there realizes, or aren’t allowed by the boss to put into practice, the standard thing where you rehearse, you double check, you run through things a half-hour before, you do what needs to be done so you know everything will go smoothly. This seems to be beyond Trump’s ken.
“Trump Has Trouble Trying To Call Mexican President.”
In fairness to Trump, a staffer should’ve demonstrated how to use a phone for something other than tweeting.
ETA: Peña Nieto did concede that Mexico was willing to pay for the walls that are closing in on Trump.
Senile old man struggles to make phone call…Film at…oh, nevermind…it’s on live tv.
You’re fired!
TPM is starting the day really badly. I had to try 6 times to access the topic list
I’ve tried 8 times to like @mattinpa’s comment. Damn Josh. Right out of the gate this morning nothing loads.
This new fangled technology is hard. That Bell guy needs a WH staff position.
I’ve had so many error pages this morning (over a dozen?), I’ve lost count. It’s nearly impossible to Like anyone’s comments.
Makes it really hard - that’s all I can say.
I said this on another thread but today is about as bad as it has ever been. Bad gateway messages, error 500 messages, to see new posts requires refreshing the page. I even got one that said something about the server having issues when I tried to access the topic list
Yep. I concur.
Daniel Dale’s twitter thread is astoundingly jaw-drawdropping.
Next step is to see if the press turns this into NoKo part two.
Same here. Really bad.
But wait, there’s more!

Shoot me now. I just sent an email to site issues. Hope they can buy some duct tape. This is a slow news day.
Trump stays “classy.” Actually, better than saying anything. He could always make it worse and probably will.
