Trump’s Gettysburg Address was not the Four Seasons Total Landscaping that one might expect, but he may have one eventually somewhere as an exiled POTUS*. Unlike all the Napoleons and French kings who went into exile, or the more recent Viktor Yanukovych of Ukraine, Donald J. Trump’s demand to be returned to...

“Sometimes you own the libs; sometimes the libs own you.” says a new Olivia Nuzzi piece. Nuzzi does get the inside WH dope probably better than Maggie Haberman because Trump does like talking to her rather than leak information. Trump worrying about assassination is not something related to being IMPOTUS,...
Accidental IMPOTUS declares 'total landscaping'. Video killed the radio star as he tucked in his shirt. “The term “urban sprawl” was first used in an article in The Times in 1955 as a negative comment on the state of London's outskirts. Definitions of sprawl vary; researchers in the field acknowledge...
Donald Trump’s closing argument for another term boils down to … COVID isn’t such a big deal after all and Joe Biden is super-corrupt. Of course, Trump has long since locked down the delusional asshole vote, but a new poll suggests he’s failed to make inroads among members of the sane community. To wit:...
The war on Xmas continues as Santas aren’t essential workers, but VP Pence is, ignoring the guidelines to quarantine after being exposed to not an insignificant number of staffers infected by COVID19. Elves and Mrs. Claus could still be included in the unemployment figures for vaccine promotion. Despair still must...
Keith Olbermann has been doing daily YouTube reports on various miscreants, but mainly on IMPOTUS, and it now seems like the Trumpian narrative now developing is a plan to disqualify Biden, by means of something, something…. illegal reasons. As unlikely as this might be, the desperate Trump has been even...
Trump eventually will be directly responsible for a quarter-million deaths from COVID. “We’re actually experiencing more death than we thought we were.” x Excess COVID death study: 75K more died in US than previously recorded#Trump is complicit in the deaths of over 210,000 Americans https://t.co/Nz3RwvzBZq— FreedomExpressed 🌊🌊 (@iPicNews) October 12,...
Lots of social distancing and challenging sound with an outdoor setting bordering a highway. Biden did well in terms of relating to the questions and the questioners. Biden was not surprised by the news that President Donald Trump tested positive for COVID-19. What he's saying: “Quite frankly, I wasn't surprised,” Biden said when...
Trump is rushing SCOTUS vote to contest the election results, but GOP senators up for re-election may pay for this. Then again IMPOTUS* is sending seniors $200 “Trump cards” for their votes. x And here I thought this was hyperbole or trolling https://t.co/mgO2kSIOsV pic.twitter.com/nOHjQ7AMnk— Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) September 25, 2020 x...
Trump’s town hall was a trainwreck, Thursday’s Biden town hall in Pennsylvania was a lot more like riding a bullet train. x It’s projection. pic.twitter.com/eUsP7jCkKr— Melissa Jo Peltier (@MelissaJPeltier) September 17, 2020 x Hiii Trump campaign friends. I tweeted live about a couple of false claims Biden made; my colleagues...
Another Trump presser today, there were more of the same lies especially about the availability of COVID vaccines. Trump furthermore went full disinformation about mask use. CNN’s Dana Bash referred to Trump’s account as “propaganda”. http://www.pscp.tv/… x In opening statement, Pres Trump calls on @joebiden to “stop promoting his anti-vaccine theories.”...
Trump Russia continues, as IMPOTUS* covers for Russia, and DHS & DoJ defections continue in the assessment of 2016 and 2020 Russian actions. Will John Durham create an “interim” deliverable for Bill Barr’s ‘October Surprise’. x This is false. No independent arbiter “determined” this about Mueller. The DOJ IG said the Russia probe was...
What he tweeted before he left for a round of golf: x ….This reminds me of the Dirty Dossier, which was pushed hard by John McCain, & then with a thud turned out to be a total fraud. So many other scams also. The Radical Far Left is VICIOUS, they...
Because encouraging voter fraud isn’t illegal if IMPOTUS does it. “Let them send it in and let them go vote, and if their system's as good as they say it is, then obviously they won't be able to vote” (Voting Twice is a felony, punishable w/ 10 yrs in Prison)...
The RNC has become GOP meta, political fantasies laid upon an unintended sequence of failed actions in reality. What if Trump could ignore history, science, and rationality and yet remain IMPOTUS. Tonight’s event consisted of stunts: a pardon, a naturalization ceremony, and a Secretary of State who wants not only the Rapture,...
Reports in various places of locks placed on mailboxes. Leaving mailboxes but they’re sealing & locking the openings! Darn semantics, leave the boxes, take the cannoli and the constitutional democracy. The labor slowdown may doom the entire effort despite any funding correction because IMPOTUS* continues the disinformation campaign about mail-in...
GOP Senators took their three weeks off, as the COVID death toll rises, Some left to campaign for re-election, others to disinform in support of IMPOTUS*. And then there’s Trump corrupting USPS in unprecedented election meddling. All the while, even Trump cannot condemn QAnon’s tacit escalation of Trumpian themes. x Which...
in a new ad which is technically called “Nationalist Geographic” When I say it mocks him, it makes fun of his weight, says he USED to be considered an Alpha Predator but then links him with Epstein …. well, you get the idea. … a ruddy orange color not found...
One Trump tweet today, the rest are retweets. There are signs that like her “I don’t care” jacket, Melania is preparing for the end of the Trump regime as the chancellery garden gets a makeover to resemble the JFK one. OTOH IMPOTUS* doesn’t really want to leave. (CNN) Melania Trump announced Monday...
The land of flaming nitwits. More federal government shakedowns, courtesy of the GOP, complete with payoffs to try to get re-elected. x This may be the single greatest protest chant of all time…Please someone get some audio and play it as part of an on air segment ðÂÂÂðÂÂÂð pic.twitter.com/XFr0mmOl0Xâ Jason...
Judy Shelton’s candidacy for a seat on the Fed was approved in a party-line vote in the Senate Banking committee on Tuesday. All 12 Democrats on the Senate Banking Committee opposed Shelton’s nomination, making the GOP Senate majority potentially putting the 2016 Trump campaign advisor’s retrograde views onto the Fed. Because in a...
Chad Wolf confesses to committing a crime on national television. One person’s ‘proactive arresting’ is another’s extralegal detention and subsequent rendition. If you get scooped up, we wish you well. DHS Secretary @DHSMcAleenan just said on Fox News that unmarked agents are making “proactive” arrests in #Portland:“If we think you will...
More Trump shtick, recycling old material, but he still loves trucks. The president is ranting about shower heads, dishwashers, and light bulbs. Now Fox News is fact-checking IMPOTUS*. x Cool. Now do one for the weight of 135,000 dead Americans. And 30 million unemployed workers. https://t.co/kKPThOG7zaâ” The Lincoln Project (@ProjectLincoln) July...
All photo-op, all the time, as IMPOTUS* the spokesmodel, does a pageant walk while masked. He’s gone from ignoring mask rules to following them in specific circumstances, and only because he canceled a campaign rally. Today is only the second time Trump has been photographed wearing a mask. x Too...
Cases go back to the lower court, so the Trump tax returns issue will not get seen before the election, because it goes to the Grand Jury in Vance. In the case of the House with Mazars, it also goes back to the lower court on the issues of subpoenas, still blocking House committees...
After yesterday’s screed on the leftist boogeymen, tonight should lean toward jingoism with the Trumpian cultural economy of bread and circuses. IMPOTUS* claims that he will speak at 7pm ET. x President Trump promises a âÂÂspecial eveningâ in Washington including a speech, a military flyover and an enormous fireworks display....
Another election could be stolen, but only if the results are close. GOTV. x #BenedictDonald, #MoscowMitch & GOP #GroupiesofPutin decide to legalize election cheating & working with Russian spies. https://t.co/sDAgxT6WGR— Malcolm Nance (@MalcolmNance) June 30, 2020 Trump remains furious at his son-in-law Jared Kushner, whom he blames for the campaign’s dismal poll numbers. Axios reported this...
Paul Krugman has done it again. His latest column combines the erudition of a Nobel laureate with the plain speaking of an excellent writer: A Plague of Willful Ignorance. A hundred years ago, he writes, there was a plague of pellagra disease in the South. A doctor working for the...
Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA is doing a convention for Trump Youth and IMPOTUS* is a featured speaker on Tuesday. x Somehow I missed that Trump's next rally is in Phoenix in 2 days. Um … pic.twitter.com/gDRRSt8NDa â Paul Krugman (@paulkrugman) June 21, 2020 x BREAKING: The World Health Organization...
The cover-up continues as Trump tries to disrupt what are continuing investigations into a number of crimes that might ultimately involve IMPOTUS*. The firing of US Attorney Geoffrey Berman may have been planned to happen with a confluence of Juneteenth and possible discord, only to be exposed with the shift...
Pence lies about curve flattening and Trumpists are so enamored of IMPOTUS* that they might sacrifice themselves without voting. Dick Cheney’s cardiologist calls Trump’s Tulsa rally “criminal endangerment”. “In a very real sense, (Oklahoma has) flattened the curve. … The number of cases in Oklahoma — it's declined precipitously.” — Mike...
Aside from providing documents for the NY Times investigation of Trump finances, Mary Trump is also a clinical psychologist. The tell-all book coming out should be at least interesting when The Donald sues her. Darn that male rage. Mary Trump, 55, the daughter of Fred Trump Jr. and eldest grandchild of Fred...
Rutherfraud B. Trump’s second term will doom any third Reconstruction, but before then, military ceremonies prop up his uses of the armed forces in political campaign stunts. Bringing cadets back to campus was only designed for another IMPOTUS* photo-op, and some self-congratulations: For the first time in 70 years, we established...
Trump claims that domestic terrorists run by “radical left Democrats” have taken over Seattle. #CHAZ is not exactly Paris 1968 or even 1871. Imagine Occupy as a street fair. Trump is relying on his alternate reality to keep him appearing like IMPOTUS*. Darn it, the oxymorons have liberated Seattle and nationalized Microsoft...
(Holding up a Bible in 2015) I meant to buy Greenland. I meant to propose nuking hurricanes. I meant to set myself up for ridicule and contempt by posing awkwardly with a Bible. The pandering will get worse, however poorly crafted by IMPOTUS*. Trump actually has held up the Bible...
Since the latest media frame “defend/defund the police” is self-limiting, the discourse should move to redefining emergency services much as “first-responders” has expanded to include those on the “front-line”. Trumpists just don’t get it, but they will seize on the latest frame much like some celebrities (and IMPOTUS*) can confuse...
On the one hand, this is a heartening development. On the other hand, grossly mishandling a pandemic, threatening to sic the military on your own citizens, and tear-gassing peaceful protesters for a sacrilegious photo op that makes you look like a constipated barn owl should put your approval rating in the low...
With the latest CNN poll showing Trump nationally behind Biden by 14 points, Philip Bump does an interesting take on Trump’s need to believe his ultimate victory on the way to his bunker. Trump now has a personal pollster who is committed to telling his client what he wants to...
There are reasons on the one hand for police brutality in terms of being paranoid about armed protesters but the reality is that there is no armed insurrection and more likely opportunists are doing conventional robberies of drug stores, pawn shops, and gun stores, mostly far away from demonstrations. Three have died...
Several stories have been appearing in the media in the past few days about how Trump really wanted to put active-duty soldiers, lots of them, on the streets of the nation’s capital. The latest story is currently the lead on CNN: White House wanted 10k active duty troops to quell...
It’s easy to see PBO in a Hawai’ian shirt, but while Trump would never be seen in such apparel, Trump has chosen to promote antifa over Boogaloo Boys, even as no member of the former has ever been seen brandishing a firearm. Boogaloo Boys explicitly want a civil war and...
Since Donald Trump is about as soothing as a ghost pepper enema, this is no surprise. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be outraged. The Rev. Al Sharpton interviewed George Floyd’s brother Philonise on MSNBC earlier today, and guess what? Trump flubbed his condolence call, coming off as neither empathetic...
Trump has gotten sanctioned by Twitter because he’d like looters shot. What kind of outrage will occur this morning when IMPOTUS* sees Twitter’s public interest notice on his tweet. This morning he doubled down, daring Twitter to act on both the @realDonaldTrump and @WhiteHouse accounts. Perhaps Trump will try to...
Trump is not exactly an author of any Emancipation Proclamations. Trump implies that he will retaliate against private social media but if he chooses anything remotely constitutional, he may actually have to address issues of fact weighed against his usual lies. But he does need diversions from the over 100,000 dead,...
This is definitely Trump’s virus now. It is the Bone Spur Virus. It is a metaphoric, national Exotosis. It must be removed to save the country. The US is still approaching 100,000 deaths NOW because Trump needs the illusion of a functioning economy before 11/3/2020. The minimum for Trump’s inaction is...
Like opposition-information for political campaigns, real products of value often have ambiguous, intangible content. See Trump University. While there’s no RICO violation, the recruitment of suckers remains the actionable issue in the latest case of the Trumps’ ACN. Because like today’s church proclamation, Trump puts the cult in culture wars....
After he leaves office, Trump will try to stonewall a prosecution of him but eventually he will lie to prosecutors — he won’t be able to help himself. Adam Schiff says Trump faces “real prospect of jail time” after leaving office” (CNN) Poll of the week: A new Marquette Law School poll finds...
A reminder that Rove is advising IMPOTUS*’ or his campaign of death. More “flooding the zone” so we ignore the cray-cray at the White House. x So Mitch McConnell said Pres. Obama âÂÂshould have kept his mouth shutâ and now Karl Rove called his commencement talk a âÂÂpolitical drive-by shootingâ and...
Reminding us that Obamagate was invented in January of 2017 to blunt an oncoming investigation of Mike Flynn, CNN’s Daniel Dale looks at Trump lies yet again, because they will not ever let up. In my second weekly video, I took a look at three of Trump's signature dishonesty patterns:...
