The Trump Presidency (Act V - The One Where Everybody Dies)

[pgwenthold]

Trump's nomination to head the Indian Health Service withdraws his application after it's revealed that he lied to the Senate Committe of Indian Affairs when he stated he had a supervisory role at a medical centre, when he had actually been an entry-level clark

I remember hearing this story months ago. I am surprised that it actually gained enough traction to make a difference.

I'm a bit computer-handicapped this morning so can't post a link but apparently he also lied to the Senate about contributions made to Trump while he was under consideration for the nomination. Swampy!

Well, that's a pleasant thought.

Coast Guard.

The Trump administration and key Asian allies are preparing to expand interceptions of ships suspected of violating sanctions on North Korea, a plan that could include deploying U.S. Coast Guard forces to stop and search vessels in Asia-Pacific waters, senior U.S. officials said.

So he bought the job (or tried to)?

Just the usual bluster. Remember when he said it was "the calm before the storm" re North Korea? That was about 5 months ago.

It's less whether or not he's prepared to do it that I'm worried about (although it's worth noting that it's been reported that he's had to be talked down from his more aggressive tendencies), more that he seemingly thinks nothing of doing something "very, very unfortunate" to the world.

A time-honored tradition, of course.

How do these jokers get these nominations?

How do they find these people? What is the criteria used for qualification guidelines? Evidently Trump only wants "yes" people without any experience, or whatever frivolous logic they base it on.
This is similar to the Brett Talley appointment for district court judgeship in Alabama. Talley was unanimously deemed “not qualified” by the American Bar Association. President Trump is full blown loony.

Trump only does the selecting - the Senate has to confirm the nominations. The question is "Why do they confirm these bags of ****?!"

That is a good question, because nominating these obviously unqualified candidates defies common sense! Perhaps the Republican Senate majority is just as loony as Trump; At the very least, common sense does not apply to the GOP anymore.

Trump comments on the Dossier.

The Democrat memo response on government surveillance abuses is a total political and legal BUST. Just confirms all of the terrible things that were done. SO ILLEGAL!

Lord Sugar has had two canvases made of cartoons depicting Piers Morgan and Donald Trump having their 'interview'
He is going to offer them to the Tata gallery.

If they don't wantthem he is going to have ten prints made of each and offer them for sale at £1000 each, the proceeds to the Great Ormond Street Childrens Hospital.

If he can get Piers to sign them then £2000 each

So excellent and so true, though not as gross as the truth!!!!!

 

[fuelair]

he look on Toupee Fiasco's face in that one on the right still makes me laugh. He's so very confused...

Always.

Or another, he goes after the gunman and sees someone down the hall shooting a gun so he kills that shooter ... only to find out that it was another teacher trying to shoot someone else.

After the Aurora theater shooting, you saw people saying "If the people in the theater had been armed, they could have stopped him." Because multiple people discharging firearms in a darkened theater in extremely confusing and stressful circumstances would have worked out so well. Too many people think real life works like an action movie.

Peña Nieto of Mexico has cancelled a planned trip to visit the White House, as reported by multiple sources. This after yet another rough phone call with His Orangeness earlier this week. Sigh. He refuses to back off Mexico paying for the wall despite Mexico repeatedly and unequivocally saying they won1

I’m sure that’s a typo, but I cannot tell if Mexico said they “won’t” or if they “won”. Both kinda work.

Did he pass the dementia test?

Yes, he definitely has it!!! And it is the world's best dementia!!!!

I find it funny that a five time draft dodger has the cheek to call anyone a coward.

Trump? He mocks other people for being fat, too.
