President Donald Trump is promising to reveal “really big news” on election security. Many Republicans wish he wouldn’t.
The president’s speech, expected to be delivered in prime time Thursday from the White House, comes amid renewed hostilities with Iran, which are once again driving up fuel prices ahead of an election that most strategists still expect to turn on cost-of-living issues.
“The people I talk to are scared shitless,” said a former Trump administration official, granted anonymity to speak candidly. “It’s not scared shitless about the text of what he’s going to say, it’s, what does he add to the text?”
Meh, his base will love it.
At this point, the only thing that would be legitimately shocking for the audience would be if he had an actual aneurysm or heart attack mid-speech and died. Anything else he says or does won’t move the shock needle much at all.
If he walked out on stage with no pants, sang badly for 20 minutes, fell over, and crawled away he would be greeted with thunderous applause and rabid acclaim.
So back in 2016, I tried this thing to explain why Trump was so unpresidential.
I found a picture of him, on stage, wearing tan suit pants.
I pixelated the lower half of his body. Showed it to my very-Christian aunt. she freaked out about him not wearing pants and how it was wrong of me, how it was an attack on him, how it was out of context. Everything except “hang on a second! That never happened!”
People started talking about what context was it appropriate to be pantless on stage, etc.
Which was my entire point. It never happened, but he is such a fucking creep she didn’t think twice about it. No one even questioned that he was letting it all hang out.
The “well, here’s the thing…” didn’t go over too well.
I would prefer that vs. everything else he’s done.
He’s gonna walk onstage and yell “free ice-cream for everyone!” After he’s informed that nobody brought ice-cream, he will blame the democrats
I am stoned
Truth is sometimes found in the buds.
My maga coworkers were already talking about what time it would be on. They’re grabbing their popcorn… They love this piece of shit.
If he dies on TV that would probably become the most watched video of the decade.
Fingers crossed.
Shitting his diaper so hard that it squirts up the front and gets on his face would do, but then we’d have to see 30% of his followers trying to mimic it.
