Trump “Dicked”-rine…

Posted on by

The title of this post is a reference to a now two-day-old Thomas L. Friedman opinion piece from the New York Times, titled “The Trump Doctrine”, wherein Mr. Friedman characterizes said philosophy as:

Obama built it. I broke it. You fix it.

with the “You” referencing Congress.

Yup, this clown – and to avoid any misunderstanding here – I am referring to the president*, not Friedman – can’t manage to emote the tiniest smidgen of empathy, even when communicating with family members of fallen soldiers. Case in point, deciding it was entirely acceptable to utter the following phrase during a telephone call with the widow of Sgt. La David T. Johnson, killed on October 4th in Niger:

…he knew what he signed up for.

Are you sh*tting me? Really?! Trump has proven – once again – what a complete sh*tbag he is.

Happily, Trump’s ethically-compromised FDA chief withdrew his name from further consideration.

…and yes, Congress is desperately trying to cobble together legislation to salvage ACA subsidies, while the Cheeto-in-Chief™ continues to lob verbal grenades in pretty much every direction…

Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank laments the dysfunctional souffle the White House continues to serve up, saying:

How long can this White House continue to serve slop before we accept that the chef is mad?

Meanwhile, the judiciary continues to inject a healthy dose of reality into the ongoing battle with the White House over the third attempt to enact a so-called “Muslim ban”.

I’ll close with a reference to a brief, but illuminating, opinion piece by David Ignatius featured in Tuesday’s Washington Post. He closes with the following line:

Trump likes creating chaos.

Yeah, he’s just a sad, twitchy little jerk who likes to dick people around…

Moron-in-Chief™

Sigh, the Idiot-in-Chief™ decided to attempt to gut the ACA on Thursday…

Margot Sanger-Katz expressed doubts in her New York Times opinion piece on Friday about how successful this misguided attempt will actually be, while fellow columnist Timothy Egan laments the gutting of environmental protections by the very agency responsible for preserving – and arguably expanding – those protections!

…and lest we forget, a non-trivial portion of the nation continues to fret over the Bigot-in-Chief’s™ threats to withdraw relief from Puerto Rico!

Does this guy hate brown people, or what?

Anybody picked up on the Wall Street Journal’s shifting editorial bias back toward becoming the bastion of conservatism it once was? Yeah, pretty sad – on Thursday, columnist Peggy Noonan penned a self-congratulatory note claiming to have called out the Republican’s deal with the devil way back in March. I’m still trying to parse Daniel Henninger’s October 11th blather intimating we might see the Moron-in-Chief™ magically transform, (from an oratorical perspective), into James Madison.

…maybe. …someday.

James Hohmann nailed it in Friday’s Washington Post feature the Daily 202 by saying the Bomb-Lobber-in-Chief™ now owns the ACA. It’s his mess now!

Michael Gerson warns Republicans about the risks of their continued silence, off-the-record whispers, snickering in shadows, etc., etc. Simply stated, the Moron-in-Chief™ has to go.

Greg Sargent offers his thoughts on why Thursday’s political theater at the White House will hurt Republicans much more than Democrats.

…and Patrick Martin hastened to remind the nation that while the Moron-in-Chief™ whines about professional athletes “disrespecting the flag”, he blithely joked about a flag-related ceremony repeated every day at U.S. military installations, globally. Sad.

Harvey goin’ bye, bye…

Goodbye and good riddance.

The New York Times broke the story on Thursday that Hollywood scumbag Harvey Weinstein sexually harassed women for decades. Yes, decades…

The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday Weinstein’s so-called “leave of absence” is, in fact, indefinite. Hmmmm… I’m guessing he ain’t coming back – nor should he!

Yeah, lawyer up assh*le, ‘cuz yer gonna need to.

The Washington Post reported on Saturday that Harvey’s board members were bailing left and right. Why only now, after this reprehensible behavior has been made public are the rats abandoning ship? Weinstein’s sleazy tendencies weren’t exactly a secret, and one has to believe the board knew something was amiss since there were numerous settlement payouts over the years. What’s the story boys? …if the schlock on the screen turns a profit, everybody looks the other way?

Update: On Sunday, the New York Times reported Harvey Weinstein was fired after new revelations regarding this cretin’s behavior came to light…

Shameful, simply shameful.

At the risk of repeating myself, goodbye and good riddance.

Update: On Tuesday, multiple news sources published articles saying Weinstein’s wife is leaving him. Wow – it took her this long to decide? …can’t wait to see what other nastiness comes out during the divorce proceedings, though after reading the various accounts published in The New Yorker on Monday, I’m not sure it could get any worse. Oh, wait a minute… I guess it can get worse! Who yanks their %&*^@ out and proceeds to *&*^$#%$ on a house plant? Harvey Weinstein, that’s who!

Weinstein deserves a >: >: >: rating for decades of bullsh*t behavior.

NRA Pocket Man

The New York Times reports dozens are dead and hundreds are injured as a result of a horrific mass shooting in Las Vegas the evening of October 1st…

…and according to an October 2nd Wall Street Journal article, the United States produces more mass shooters than any other nation!

Although the U.S. represents less than 5% of the global population, it accounted for 31% of global mass shooters from 1966 to 2012, more than any other country, according to Adam Lankford, associate professor at the University of Alabama Department of Criminal Justice.

Meanwhile, a diminished president* recited emotionless platitudes while squinting at teleprompters at the White House on Tuesday.

Does it surprise anyone the Idiot-in-Chief™ promised he’d visit to Nevada this week, while we’re still waiting on him to visit Puerto Rico nearly two weeks after Hurricane Maria devastated the island? Well, it shouldn’t – this f*cking assh*le spent the entire weekend at his golf resort in New Jersey… :-(

Congress needs to stare down the gun-toting nut-jobs, (basically all NRA members and every NRA lobbyist), darkening their doorsteps in Washington and just do what should have been done decades – yes decades – ago! …and what needs to be done?

Simple. Enact practical, reasonable and sorely-needed gun control. Today.

Tom Price submitted his resignation as Secretary of Health and Human Services on Friday over rising outrage of his abuse of charter flights, (with some estimates of the costs creeping into the hundreds of thousands of dollars).

While Steven Mnuchin’s travel-related demands/requests were arguably the first in a string of the administration’s flight-related foibles, it was Price’s flagrant waste which resulted in – what I hope – will be series of high-profile resignations and/or dismissals.

Apparently, there are investigations underway targeting:

Steven Mnuchin
Tom Price …well, this one’s out!
Scott Pruitt
Ryan Zinke

To be clear, the noisy chatter about who’s spending what to go where distracts from what really matters right now – the administration’s tiny, weak, flaccid, impotent response to the humanitarian disaster unfolding in Puerto Rico.

The president* would rather engage in online bickering with duly-elected officials in Puerto Rico about the quality of aid making its way to this beleaguered island, (having been ravaged by Hurricane Maria a little over a week ago), than bring the full force and power of the United States government to bear on the terrible situation in Puerto Rico.

This ridiculous response to the growing humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico is yet another example of the gross dereliction of duty being committed day in and day out by the Idiot-in-Chief™ hiding in the White House. Impeach immediately!
