Secretary of Defense Mark Esper on Wednesday night distanced himself from President Donald Trump’s infamous photo-op in front of St. John’s Episcopal Church on Monday.
Esper claimed he “didn’t know where I was going”
Definitely not something that I want to hear coming from any Secretary of Defense.
…also, I don’t believe him.
I, Mike Esper, knowing Donald Trump and having worked with him, actually BELIEVED that he cared to see damage to ANYTHING. Really, I promise. I also believe in the tooth fairy and Santa Clause.
Really THIS is what he comes up with, he thought Trump gave a hoot about anything other than himself and was willing to waddle a couple of blocks to go see something. Pull the other leg, it has bells on.
There’s a rather scathing article in WaPo about Ivanka Trump and her large white purse being there.
I do wonder how many of those heading for the church knew what went on there moments before. Just along for the ride, whoopee, we’re all going to die.
Very…uhmmm…funny?
Esper enacts Operation Cover My Own Ass. I thought we were just going over there to dominate the battle space I swear!!
And may I state the obvious?
BULLSHIT
So a guy with that name is claiming that he can’t read the President’s mind? Some Esper he is.
I would have said you can’t make this shit up, but here we are.
Mike, Mike, Mike (Mark. Whatever the fuck your name is). Donny only brings you to a vandalized bathroom on the FIRST date.
All dressed up, suits and ties and they’re heading for the bathroom. Can we say clueless?
When I saw the picture with Trump, Barr and the rest of the mob walking down the street, I was reminded of a line in a David Bowie song:
We are the goon squad and we’re coming to town.
(Fashion).
Nonsense. Always nonsense from these enablers.
Exactly.
We are told that:
Secretary of Defense Mark Esper on Wednesday night distanced himself from President Donald Trump
But I don’t see much distance – he’s just claiming to be not very bright.
Neither the TPM article nor the original NBC report says that he actually criticized Trump.
Dazed and confused Esper
Thought it was the rapture
All the while America fractured
Under the boot without valour.
Still, remarkably coherent considering some of Rumsfeld’s remarks. Rumsfeld not only didn’t know where he was going, most of the time he didn’t even seem to realize where he was.
Esper could be:
a. lying
b. too stupid to have the job he has
c. a and b
He thought he was going to visit the bathroom. Instead, he went to hell.
Clueless in concocting such a ridiculous lie, yes. Clueless about where they were going, perhaps. But the very idea of the Rump inspecting a bathroom that was vandalized while carrying a bible should have at least raised a question in that brain of Esper’s. Is he so stupid that he thought he would get away with a statement so ridiculous? But, no worries. He’s now on the goner list for not going full on with Rump’s reality TV show.
And now you know why Trump considered him among “the best people” (to assist Trump in his nefarious plans).
And while you’re there, make sure you give Steve King a double-flush.
