Less than 24 hours after the Senate’s Republican majority saved him from getting kicked out of office in the impeachment trial, President Donald Trump appeared in front of a podium in the White House and spewed a free-wheeling victory speech filled with personal grievances and bizarre tangents.
Ya think?
Trump Went Off The Deep End
As always, there’s a macro for that.
Still not facing up to the mental illness and evident drug abuse.
Six? I read the transcript. It is more like 600.
Dementia.
There’s only one end for #TreasonMitch. May it come soon.
He’s your baby, Repug Senators. Hope you enjoy changing his diapers and explaining his crazy and defending his lawlessness.
Ho-hum.
You don’t need 2020 vision to 25 45.
I don’t feel for anyone that carries Trump’s water. The ads this fall will speak for themselves.
I would really hit hard his mental illness as Bill Maher did on his show last week.
So True!!!
Welcome to the world as Trump abuses it for at least 9 months. Actually, I hate to think what happens if he loses in the time between the election and leaving office.
While this trash stays on the front pages, be sure to check inside your newspapers for the articles detailing the destruction of protections for all us: in areas including health, climate, finances, foreign affairs, civil rights and anything else he can get his hands on through executive orders or regulatory changes.
We no longer have a legislative branch and where that leads is very frightening. It’s going to take a very principled administration to step away from the luxury of using executive orders and unsanctioned decisions to change major policies and accomplish desired ends. It won’t be easy.
I don’t want highlights or spoilers, I want to watch the entire press conference from beginning to end. That is the ultimate acid (or cannabis) test.
You know, in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, a planet stages a faux emergency, and sends all its most mediocre citizens on an interstellar colonization trip. Could we maybe pull that off with the MAGA crowd and the preznit himself? Like, say, we tell them Mexico has bought the U.S., but they can colonize Pluto if and only if they leave tomorrow.
I think it’s our only hope now. God help us all.
This just in, a new DOJ OLC opinion outlines a set of limited crimes that do not require a sitting grand jury to warrant a criminal indictment. Bill Barr has said that the new legal opinion will be critical to address important national security concerns. President Trump, along with a select group of high-level government officials, provided valuable input into what actions might constitute each special new crime.
The list of perfect officials included Stephan Miller, Lindsay Graham, Wilbur Ross, Steven Mnuchin, Mike Pompeo, Rand Paul, Devin Nunes, Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Kevin McCarthy, Mitch McConnell, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Mike Pence, Mick Mulvaney, Pete Sessions and several select outside counsel including Rudy Giuliani, Alan Dershowitz, Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova. Sean Hannity, Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh submitted notes to the group. Matt Gaetz was not invited. The nature of the national security concerns are still undetermined and were recently classified.

O my fucking god
“But, you know, it’s a failed presidential candidate, so things can happen when you fail so badly running for president,”
Yeah? Well things can happen when you fail so badly at being president. Eventually all of your transgressions will see the light of day. Tick tock, motherfucker.
Snark!
tRump is one sick mutha—cker. Media folks need a quick seminar in the signs of dementia, including frontotemporal dementia. Then they may more clearly see what is before their eyes, imho.
Don’t do that to me.
Grand Juries are the only thing keeping Barr from locking Pelosi, Schiff, Biden and his son up. Not to mention anybody else they want.
