Donald Trump’s presidency is like a political hurricane. When it’s over, it’s going to take us years to rebuild.
Harvey Weinstein has four daughters and a stunning wife. I wonder how he would act if someone treated them the way he has treated women for decades. Would he even care?
In his “interview” with Sean Hannity (please, please tell us how well you’re doing!), Donald Trump demonstrates that he lacks even the most elementary understanding of how our economy works, or the relationship between the national debt and the stock market.
Trump’s base claim he is one of them. They ache to return to a time when it was acceptable to physically push someone just because you felt like it, or pick on a small kid, or pat a female worker on the backside or smoke a cigarette on an airplane. Times have changed and they resent it, picking on people is the explanatory metaphor for how the nation was founded. Rules are for everyone else — not for Trump or his followers.
Maybe after they impeach the president because the liberal elites don’t like him, the cat with the high IQ will take over for him. What a purr-fect idea.
You won’t read about my cat. He is just an average cat, probably has an I.Q. of about 12. Nothing special but still smarter than your president. Where did you get 156? The Kellyanne Conway BIG BOOK OF ALTERNATIVE FACTS, perhaps?
Can’t carry water through airport security, but can carry concealed weapons most anywhere. Which is essential to life?
Trump: “I hate everyone in the White House.” The president is becoming deeply unhinged.
The White House nutcase has found that, through his alternate facts and knack for lies, he can temporarily derail the press away from Russia, collusion, and the fact that he is incompetent and knows nothing about what he is doing. Thankfully, this country has persistent news media that searches out the truth and publishes it for all to read. Suppress the press and he gets away with all his lies, misinformation, prejudices and moronic tweets.
If you think Trump has an IQ of 156, then you are a victim of Fake News. That story has been debunked by several different media outlets. He has the vocabulary of someone with an IQ of about 90.
A commenter suggested that we need old rich white men in Congress to step aside and let the Millennials take over. How about rich women like Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi that are in Congress? Should they get to stay? Or were you just referring to rich white republican men?
Cyrus Vance, the Manhattan District Attorney, turned down the chance to prosecute Harvey Weinstein for grabbing a woman’s breast and admitting it on a wiretap and then received a 10,000 dollar donation from Harvey Weinstein a month later. That’s how money talks!
Even Steve Bannon has a connection to Harvey Weinstein. Bannon was chairman of Genius Products that distributed DVDs and home videos and went into business with the Weinstein brothers. Where is the outrage from the right wing about this?
Now we have at least five internal investigations in the traveling practices of the members of the presidents cabinet. VP Mike Pence joined this esteemed circle of the traveling circus by his ridiculous poor acting at the Colts football game. Force them all to pay these charges out of their personal bank accounts.
The president labeled Senator Bob Corker “liddle.” He considered Mr. Corker for Secretary of State but told associates that at 5’7″, he was too short for the position. David Lloyd George, a famous British Prime Minister, who was also quite short, often said, “In Wales, we measure men from the neck up.”
