Congress should remove the cable funding in the next continuing resolution effective 10-1-2020( new fiscal year) for the white house. Trump would go nuts with no fox news…

Why are we letting this imposter live in the White House and watch TV all the time?

I don’t understand.

Imagine being the poor fucker who is responsible for the TVs at the WH.

“I’m sorry sir, we can’t fix the color any more. You’re orange and you’re going to stay that way.”

Unpossible! He reacted to a NYT story years ago saying he sits on his ass watching TV all day and night by saying he had no time for that, he was far too busy reading. Reading what? they asked. “Documents,” he said. :joy::joy::joy::joy::joy::joy:

Before he rattled off the tv programs he watched, he said something about somebody that he had fired, maybe the head of the FBI, and he said “The guy before that, I don’t remember his name.”

After that happened he tried to demonstrate that he can remember things, for example what he watched on tv recently. He was covering up for his memory loss. That was a PWMCT moment.

DAY 1,331: Still no pivot. Never will be. Michelle Obama was correct, i.e. Trump cannot be what we need him to be. It shouldn’t have taken anyone this long to figure that out. It was self-evident before he announced his candidacy. Remember “lacks the required temperament” claim? Was true then, remains true now.

This is a tough one. Normally, you would want your president to be busy, trying to stop Covid from killing a thousand Americans a day. On the other hand, Trump messes up everything he tries to do, so maybe we are better off that he’s watching TV, instead of something worse, like plotting to send his storm-troopers into another city

He’s the fake president during a pandemic, environmental disasters, and a struggling economy for lots of Americans…

and he watches television for at least eight hours a day. Then he plays golf.

If this were a democratic president who wore a tan suit…

Now this doesn’t include the Woodward revelations, but I’m betting they won’t move the needle significantly. I’m trying, but ultimately failing, to process the fact that almost half the country have a cultist’s mentality.
