So much still unresolved from the Trump era installed in 2016, and continued through 2020, a Russian intelligence operation. Hard to tell whether it ranks with Robert Hanssen, Aldrich Ames, or even Operation Pandora, the plan to foment a US race war in the 1960s, although the Trump win could...
Spicer
After Sean Spicer, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Stephanie Grisham, and Kayleigh McEnany, anyone or anything would have been an upgrade as press secretary. A wheel of Gorgonzola with a Furby chip jammed into it would have been better. But, luckily, we did much better. Biden’s first press secretary, Jen Psaki, is knowledgeable,...
< p class=”is-empty-p” style=”text-align:left”> Randall Lane, the editor of Forbes Magazine, has warned corporations not to hire former Trump officials. If they hire them, said Lane, they will be viewed as a “funnel of disinformation” by the magazine. Business Insider writes a summary of how Trump’s failed coup attempt inspired Forbes...
Oh, please, yes. Sure. Why not? Donald Trump has reportedly been hinting to insiders that he might resurrect The Apprentice. Like anyone wants to see Sean Spicer and Kevin Sorbo in a blood duel over the marketing contract for TruckNutz. But that’s where we are in this shart-encrusted Underoo of a timeline. The...
Before Sean Spicer was a fluorescent yellow canary-man who danced like a frog trying to escape from a bucket, he was Donald Trump’s press secretary. x x YouTube Video Remember? Back in the fore-fore times, when we thought maybe Trump would settle down for his nap, but he instead insisted...

Other than Sean Spicer, who’s spent his post-White House years defending Donald Trump when not dancing like an elderly canary being sucked into a vacuum hose attachment, how many ex-Trump staffers have rushed into the fray to support the guy? “Yay, evil!” Where are the detailed books and articles about Trump’s...
Fortunately Trump has too many vices unlike Londo Cotton. x Trump cannot take fascism all the way, not because he has any virtues but because he has too many vices. It is right to see fascism and call it by its name. It is also right to mock it, resist...
Trump said if there were 100,000 deaths, “then we’ll have done a good job”. Low-Information Individualism may continue among the Trumpist population to November. There will be more conflicts on mask policies, as if resistance was a pro-Trump statement. And the death toll will likely rise. “We’ll have done a...
More Trump whining and preparing for the post-Trump days by building that Trump media channel audience for more grifting with many minor outlets beyond Fox News. In the midst of a pandemic he has time on his hands. x pic.twitter.com/iS2lXlQbc9â liberal Dajuana (@LiberalForever5) July 5, 2020 x Now that OANN...
The President has adopted a serious tone; it is not political, and Mr. Trump is a wartime President. All the previous statements are being palmed-off to the public as truths about President Trump and his handling of the novel coronavirus pandemic. I am sorry, but Mr. Trump is only consistent...
President Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton said he is ready to throw himself at the mercy of the Senate Impeachment court, but color me skeptical. The truth from anyone associated with the Trump administration, even for a short time, strains the fabric of credibility. Mr. Bolton has teased...
For some Trumpers, not even the spawn is racist enough for some of its followers in 2020. Still early days, but Trumpism may be in the beginning stages of base fracturing among its Christian nationalists and its GOP conservatives primarily on how racist they should be. No Night of the Long Knives...
“Today Putin-puppet Trump condemned ‘corrupt’ Ukraine, ordered US withdrawal in Syria, cancelled Open Skies.” Pulling out of the Open Skies treaty may blind some aspects of monitoring Russian militarization of the Ukrainian conflict, as Trump does more of Putin’s bidding. x The Trump administration is pulling out of the Open Skies Treaty,...
Sean Spicer’s tenure as W.H. Press Secretary got off to a rocky start, lying for his lying master about the size of his inaugural crowd. True to his nature Spicer’s boss drumpf didn’t give a whit about the lies or embarrassing Spicer by bullying him into telling whoppers. Instead he...
I just want to say to the original version of me who cloned his consciousness and uploaded it into this shitty computer simulation — fuck you, dude. Shit’s not funny. I give you full permission to unplug this “universe.” Nothing good can ever come of it. And because everything has to...
So it’s Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ last day, and it’s bittersweet — like bidding adieu to a fungal toenail you’ve had for two years. In a way you miss it because it’s been there so long. But, really, in no way do you miss it. Not even a little. I’d hoped...

Sadly, an Air Force buddy I had served with over 20 years ago is, today, a huge Trump fan. He’s the complete package, down to the stupid red hat and wacky conspiracy theories. His immigrant attacks must have made things particularly awkward with his lovely wife, who immigrated from Mexico. (I actually...

Earlier today I wrote a diary about former White House staffer Cliff Sims’ new book, Team of Vipers, and the revelation that Donald Trump is obsessed with his TV image and, specifically, chyrons. Well, it turns out that was just an aperitif. The Washington Post has more. A lot more. A...
Corey “Grabby-Hands” Lewandowski and David “Cotton-Picking” Bossie, two former Trump advisers, have written a new book titled “How to Live Inside Donald Trump’s Sigmoid Colon While Still Maintaining Your Independence and Objectivity.” No, actually it’s called “Trump’s Enemies: How the Deep State Is Undermining the Presidency.” The Washington Post obtained a copy,...
* Spoiler Alert * I will not be watching Chuckles' big interview with Omarosa on Meet The Press tomorrow. And I won't be watching on Monday either, when Tweety interrupts her every sentence. In fact, I won’t even use her picture on this diary. As far as I'm concerned, Omarosa...
Donald Trump called John McCain a “loser”, said he was “not a war hero”, and mocked him for being a POW. (“I like people who weren’t captured”). And then he got mean … Meghan McCain asked him to stop mocking her dad, and Trump promised her he would—and kept his...

Today, Sean Spicer declared that Assad was worse than Hitler, because the latter “didn't even sink to using chemical weapons”. That’s wrong for one really big, really obvious reason: the Holocaust. But even if we give Spicer a little more benefit than he deserves, and assume that he meant only...
