world leaders were telling me in quiet asides that the meeting with Trump had gone brilliantly, that he had been very happy, that he had listened — actually listened — to every leader in the big closed-door confab and had left in a good mood.

Hang on, was this the same Donald Trump who had been berating partners only hours earlier?

Yes, apparently so.

I would say Trump was playing them, or playing the markets for his own financial ends. But he’s not that smart.

Such sudden and extreme changes in attitude and demeanor are a symptom of dementia. Or of bipolar or some other mental disorders.

And Kavanaugh voted against for the wrong reason (he said Trump’s EO didn’t violate the Constitution but did violates federal law).

And when the winning candidate inevitably turns into a disaster…

“Don’t blame me, I voted for Dan Sullivan!”

Fuck off with this spam.

I think his staffers never told him about the court ruling, and instead they’ve told him they are replacing all the dull lettering with ‘classy’ gold lettering. And now they don’t know how to tell him the truth. So they are stalling by leaving the tarps up there.

Do he and his followers really think this would make everyone forget about his impeachments? Because it won’t. It’ll just cause everyone else to mock him even harder for being corrupt and insecure.

Wtf??? Who the fuck authorized this? This is fucking amateur hour on steroids.

“It’s okay to be wrong. You made a mistake, it was a bad choice, but it’s not the end of the world. We can fix it.”

Acknowledging a mistake only works if you them stop making that mistake. And I’m not convinced these or similar people will do that.

How many red flags have they ignored? They didn’t give a shit about other people being screwed over by him. It was only when it affected them that they started to question. He worked for the Federal government and was still bashing the shit out of it. They ignored the January 6th riots. They voted for the this THREE times. This is all typical maga idiocy, and the reason why we’re in such a mess.

I mean, I guess it’s good they’re seeing reality now. But holy shit. And these stories are basically pointless. Anyone who hasn’t pulled their heads out of their asses by now won’t because of other people’s accounts like this. The only thing that will change their minds is personal hardships. And even then it’s a toss-up.

Yeah, I mean ‘snake oil’ as a term for bullshit/fake. But fair point about his this shit is a lot not dangerous than real snake oil.

I think you’re right. The eagerness of people to ingest the latest unregulated fad of the moment never ceases to amaze me. I know people who are popping tons of peptide shit, and it’s ‘fine’ because “it’s all amino acids”. Strong “it’s got electrolytes!” Idiocracy vibes.

The problem is, people take these unregulated supplements and then “feel amazing”. Their energy and focus levels increase. But they don’t think about the side effects.

You know how I got my energy and focus levels up? By cutting back on processed food and sugars, drinking more water, focusing on my gut health, exercising a bit more, and finding ways of reducing stress levels. Not easy, but it works. And no snake oil supplements (or their side effects) required.

What an inefficient way to run a government. They should really fix such egregious government waste.

“I will NOT live in fear”

Proceeds to live in fear of people of color, women with careers/ambitions, gay and bi people, trans people, left wing people, immigrants, non-Christians, science, masks, renewable energy, social distancing, being expected to show empathy/kindness, etc etc.

In other news: water is wet!

Obama is living rent-free in that addled brain.

He’s looking for any excuse to get in there so he can walk out with some of the gold.

Fuck knows what he’ll do with it, given his obsession with that precious metal. Shave bits off and put it on his hamberders; melt it and create a gold crown with built-in toupee; create yet another fucking statue to himself or another gold toilet to shit in; store it in his Mar A Lago bathroom like it’s some sort of classified info; use it for his stupid ball room; jizz all over it.

“I’ve voted my entire life. And the frustration right now is, it’s just unbelievable, because what really changes?” she added. “I just feel like we’re kind of just, you know, kind of steering the ship in the same direction.”

Holy enlightened centrist bullshit, Batman!

“Steering the ship in the same direction”?!

“What really changes?”?!

One side is prone to corporate corruption and political hypocrisy. The other does that too, but even more. And they are also fast-tracking the country into outright fascism!

“Well clearly all 8 of those panelists are radical communist fascist liberal antifa operatives who belong to the deep state illuminati.”

-The current administration

Because she threatened to murder his dog if they moved her out.

Incoming 3rd grade level and very personal insults against Merz and Germany from the Whitehouse in 3, 2, 1…
