President Bam Bam goes off message again during "executive time."

I blame the staff for this one. It had been decided Baby Donald needed more time in the morning for, "executive time,"............https://www.axios.com/scoop-trumps-...4a-6252-4570-a804-942b3f851840.html.........a metaphor for time spent tweeting and watching his favorite cable "news" show, Faux and Friends. Clearly they should be providing more coloring books to play with or Egg McMuffins to eat so Don can keep himself out of trouble. Fail.
It was bad enough that during the meeting on DACA he forgot what his bargaining position was when he agreed with Sen. Feinstein's suggestion a clean DACA bill be passed without consideration of the ineffectual border wall. Is that supposed to happen to the Negotiator-in-Chief? The self professed king of deal makers. Is that what winning looks like? By the time the meeting was drawing to an end Don was basically saying "send me anything, I'll sign it." Perhaps the meeting had gone too long for his limited attention span and he needed more "executive time."
Then came the FISA tweet. Was it a coincidence it came right after Judge Napolitano spoke on Faux making the hysterically (not in a funny way) ridiculous claim that Don had been "illegally and unconstitutionally" surveilled? You'd have to be a Drumpf supporter to believe that. This occurred as votes were being whipped on the floor of the House for passage of the FISA bill. Luckily, someone on Don's staff sat him down and got his attention long enough to convince him of the monumental mistake he had made........though I doubt they put it in those terms so as not to upset his fragile ego. Crisis averted. Until the next one..........

Which came along fairly quickly in the form of a bigoted, ignorant reference to people from "s...hole" countries and why the US can't keep more white people. When the cameras are on you for as much time as they are on any prez it's hard to hide your true nature. Not that this was the first time Don's deep seated feelings about people of color had come spewing out of his pie hole. And so what everyone already knew was again confirmed, our prez is a racist. What I'm wondering is, was this an purposeful attempt to get back in the good graces of the minions? There was a fair amount of blow back to the concessions on immigrants he made during the DACA meeting. She-man Ann Coulter said it was his worst day as prez. So maybe he felt the need to assure his people he was the same guy they voted for. The reliable bigot who was charged with racial discrimination by the Nixon admin back in the day. Don's "s...hole" comment was the all clear. Relax, you got what you voted for.

 

I don't think this was purposeful. He normally looks for red meat to throw in the form of a political figure of some moderate or a Dem to attack personally through twitter or goes after 'muslims' or mexicans. That is his tried and true shtick This just came out.

So Fox and Friends criticizes the FISA renewal that the White House has PROPOSED...and the idiot in the Oval Office reacts without knowing what his OWN position is supposed to be.

We don't HAVE a functioning Presidency .

 

We must resist the tendency to become numb to this stuff. THIS IS BATSHYTE CRAZY that the prez........THE PRESIDENT.......is watching a TV station built on spreading disinformation to an audience eager to be misinformed to confirm their bias...........and by using Twitter is sending out tweets.............considered official WH statements................that put our national security at risk!!

 

Baby Donald has now denied he made the "s...hole" comment, and that denial has been refuted by one of the senators in the room, Dick Durbin. Now the pressure shifts to the Repub senators that were in the room.

Will they have the integrity to confirm Don made the comment or once again roll over in defense of the Bigot-in-Chief?

 

Less than 27% of the eligible electorate facilitated the election of this Fox-Parroting UNPREPARED IMBECILE.

Almost 3/4 of America DIDN'T VOTE FOR This RACIST TRUMP SCUMBAG.

But here we are.

250 Million Americans (who can't stand Trump) living through the hell created by this EGREGIOUS MORON. :smfh:

 

Thanks for reminding us of those numbers. It's reassuring to remember and yet look at the harm the minority can inflict on the country when the majority does not participate in elections. Mercifully, I think the majority is sufficiently motivated by this unqualified nitwit to go to the polls this fall. Hopefully it will be enough to overcome the gerrymandered House so impeachment hearings can begin.

 

Well said, and Seconded.

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) called for a “detailed explanation” of Trump’s reported remarks and defended America’s tradition of welcoming immigrants from all over the world.

 

BTW, where are the letters Drumpf said were sent to him by TV anchors praising him for the DACA meeting?
