What do you expect from the Buffoon in charge, the clown can barely walk and chew gum at the same time. Failure to declare a National Emergency is going to cost people their lives and he’s doing it for political reasons. That is malfeasance at the highest levels.

Any other president would fire his staff over this fiasco, but Trump has already gotten rid of every competent staff member. He seems to be down to Miller and Jared.

There’s a lot going on we don’t know about.

Why does everyone assume these are errors? Maybe it’s messaging. If one makes arbitrary, scattershot and self-contradictory claims, then one has a sound-bite for every audience. This is his genius, say everything, cover every possible outcome, then claim victory.

They can’t even put together a speech meant to distract from how badly they’re fucking things up without fucking up the speech. And then lying about it.

I hear the National Association of Klown Kars (NAKK) is suing for defamation after someone compared the Trump administration to them.

The guys who made the movie “Airplane” had a sequel planned, called “Presidency,” but they’re giving it up. Trump has already stolen all their best bits.

Trump is a barely functioning illiterate Russian Mafia hood who would have been “eliminated” by now if he performed at such a low level in the USSR. Yet Republicans swear that he’s the Second Coming of God? More worried about how it looked to have a pen mark on his sleeve than the crisis confronting his countrymen?
