https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/feb/18/trump-administration-chaos-white-house When press officers at the White House glance up from their desks, they are constantly reminded of their boss’s big day. On the wall, in thick dark frames, are photos: Donald Trump taking the oath of office, giving a thumbs up at his inaugural address, bidding farewell to Barack Obama, waving to the crowd during his inaugural parade, dancing with his wife at an inaugural ball. Walking by last Monday, Trump gestured towards an image of his inauguration crowd – a point that still irks him – and told reporters there would soon be an official statement about the future of his national security adviser, Michael Flynn. Trouble was, an hour earlier, adviser Kellyanne Conway had appeared on television declaring that the president had “full confidence” in Flynn. Soon after, Trump’s press secretary Sean Spicer read a statement that said “the president is evaluating the situation”. Six hours later, Flynn was gone. It was the fastest, most furious week yet for an administration that, like a runaway train, has Washington and America’s elder statesmen shaking their heads, declaring that they have never seen such turmoil or ineptitude. (...) Of course, this being unfavourable to Donald, it is, by definition, Fake News. Those fucking limeys, have they no shame?!? Ugh... (where's my hanky?)
Not that I don't appreciate your effort, but perhaps limiting these to the few threads already open would be kinder. All donald all the time is nauseating. He's becoming the new dayton.
Amen. I tried to open a few new threads on nonpolitical topics but all leftforge wants to talk about these days is their endless butt hurt at having lost.
I know, but this is just a riff off my similarly entitled other thread. Not really serious. But that other thread is serious. Yes, there are a thousand-and-one Donald threads on this board, and 99% of them are full of bilious one-liners and exchanges of personal abuse between members. Well, that ain't debate, and I'm not going to waste time writing a serious post in the middle that horseshit. That's why, in the opening line of the D-in-saddle thread, I tell the narrow-bandwidth people not to bother fucking with it. Might make their heads hurt.
It is not about losing. It is about having a complete text imbecile screwing things up and selling us out. It is sort of like having you run things.
