Never Mind! WH Swiftly Walks Back Email Detailing Eviction Instructions | Talking Points Memo

I wish someone would have grilled the Republican reps from Wisconsin. Johnson in the senate and the 5 little minions in the House. Disgraceful

The flaw is the lack of honor and integrity in most of the R party. Hard to fix when voters are still electing Rs.

You know, I am worried about how many Sidney Powells may be out there.

I dunno; it’s going to be really hard to top 331,000 dead already.

It’s a hard call. We see only an edited version of trump. The reality could be much crazier. Or the crazy could be an act. But for sure, he is dumb as a sack of hammers, dumb as a box of rocks, dumber than dirt; as Fran Leibowitz said, “You don’t know anyone as stupid as donald trump, you just don’t.”

I don’t. For all I know that’s exactly what happened. Although I actually blame her husband.

The jury however, didn’t buy it.

Delusional does not mean crazy and hearing voices or having hallucinations. Having a delusion is just firmly believing something despite all available evidence saying it is not so. My MIL has paradelusional syndrome. She can shop, cook, watch TV, discuss politics and generally function quite well for an 85 year old. But if she gets a tummy ache, she will look you straight in the eye and tell you that “the little bastard upstairs” is shooting her with lasers again and she whole-heartedly believes it. She has been this way her whole life, so it is not dementia.

Narcissists are delusional by definition, since one of their most enduring symptoms is delusions of grandeur. Trump is definitely delusional. Doesn’t mean he’s crazy, but he is mentally ill - no doubt.

Yes, but imagine the thrill for Trump of being able to match that in one afternoon.

Or he may pardon ‘John Barron’

Boy, are you going to feel terrible when you finally do find the laser-shooting little bastard and realize she was right all along.

If anyone would know what military hardware is required to do this, it would definitely be you. Would you mind if I put my MIL in touch with you?

Who among the usual suspects do you think might have written Flynn’s pardon? I don’t have an opinion there, save for “not Sidney Powell”.

No doubt whatsoever.

Just not enough to be a defense.

The dog told Son of Sam to kill people. That wasn’t enough.

There is nothing in the story about evictions. I thought TPM was above such click-baity headlines

That was my wife’s refrain during the 2016 election, saying more than once that they’d better count the WH silverware if Hillary got elected. She thought Hillary and Bill were crooked on some level, and not just because of the previous WH furnishings episode.

My wife voted for Hillary anyway because she’s a lifelong liberal and Dem voter. The alternative wasn’t remotely acceptable. But I never did understand all the animus she had towards Hillary.

I think there might have been some kind of emotional woman-to-woman negative vibes going on there, that I’m not tuned into because I’m a guy. I get the impression that many otherwise Dem-leaning women felt that way about HRC and cost her some votes.

Probably a modification of the sound-wave machine used to attack our diplomats in Cuba, just using lasers instead.

Now that you mention it, see below. Although I think it’s more about protecting him from repercussions due to the Khashoggi episode than some new foreign adventure. It’s not in MBS’s or the other sheik’s interests to shake up the region with another war, even a small one. And it wouldn’t be small if Iran is involved.
