several Republican senators attempted to stop him from firing EU ambassador Gordon Sondland to no success.

I want to say something here. It starts with one word and ends with a second word which is “you.”

Dear Senators Collins, Murkowski, Gardner, et al,

Maximum punishment.

That is the Trump Motto.

Any GOP Senators thinking they could stop Trump from following through with his threats is delusional or dishonest.

The GOP thought all along that they could use tRump as their sock puppet.

Then they found out Putins hand was there first.

Yes he’s a useful idiot, but he’s Putins puppet, not theirs.

Rethugliklan senators needn’t worry. Expect a chastened Cockholster to pivot at any moment.

Yea right! After they pleaded with tRump to not do what they knew he was going to do the next thing they did was run to the NYT. BS

His need to show his power is greater than his gratitude for their loyalty. I hope they enjoy the victory laps that we are sure to endure. I hope they enjoy defending their votes every day for the rest of their lives.

And for my part I’d like to publicly urge all these privately urging types who see the future and do these leaks the way prisoners fashion escape ropes out of torn-up bedsheets to, in Mozart’s immortal words, leck mich im arsch. Speak the fuck up if you want it to mean something. When it all comes crashing down, when the volcano of disgust and rage is engulfing your entire party, these little mouse squeaks will count for less than nothing. You want to have it both ways? Well, that was always the problem. Cowards.

Hmmmmm. I will say it for you. And I’d bet most of the other TPMers would too.

Did these Senators speak to Trump about the Vindmans?

If not, eff them.

Republican senators were worried about the optics of Trump firing the EU ambassador

What message does it send to our donor base when you get fired after making a $1 million contribution? Do you have any idea how many little people we have to schmooze to make that up?

Here’s that image with the contrast bumped up and the color intensified. Like a damn half-moon. He goes to his hairline and then straight down. Or else he just puts his face in a big bowl of dye?

This is the face of someone that will do whatever he bloody wants.
Pass this photo along.

Ed. This was clearly one of those days where makeup and hair didn’t show up and he decided he’d do it himself. Must have been in a bad mood.
