Someone please take his phone away - today's edition

It's confirmed that North Korea can hit anyplace in the US mainland with an ICBM tipped with a nuclear payload.

Meanwhile, our president is retweeting tweets first put up by a deputy leader of Britain First, which was founded in 2011 by neo-fascists. The deputy leader's name is Jayda Fransen, and she's up to her eyeballs in legal trouble in the UK, stemming from her incendiary speeches and literature.

By the way, the kid beating up the kid on crutches in one of the videos Fransen posted is not a Muslim.

DJT also tweeted about a situation from 2001, when MSNBC's Joe Scarborough was in the House of Representatives. A staffer died in his office, and it was quickly proven that she'd collapsed and hit her head due to a heart condition. There is no mystery surrounding it, other than in the minds of hard-left gotcha types - and, apparently, our president.

He's also now backpedaling on his concession that the Access Hollywood "grab-'em-by-the-p----" tape is real.

Allahpundit at Hot Air speaks plainly about what we can now conclude:

The president isn’t a pretend conspiracy theorist because he knows it plays well with populists. He’s a conspiracy theorist. At this point there’s a nonzero chance that he also privately thinks we don’t know the “real story” of 9/11 either. If the “deep state” keeps messing with him, perhaps we’ll find out.
His zealot base, his pundit-world water-carriers, and even the more sober-minded of those observers who constantly weigh his pros and cons (and always seem to conclude that, on balance, he's doing well) are always eager to portray those who find him unfit - those on the left, certainly, but more to the point those of us on the right - as a dwindling lot.

I ain't buyin' it. His poll numbers would be higher if that were the case.

I repeat, we could have had the good achievements without the accompanying train wreck.

  1. I realize you take offense when I continually chime in with my (improperly directed?) disdain for Trump, but aren't you looking forward to some of his fire & fury? Hope that all goes well for you folks.

  2. Why would I look “forward” to it? It would involve a cataclysmic level of destruction

  3. Do you want it to happen anyway? I recall you were on board with shock and awe. And I'll never forget you in your chair in front of the TV screaming Dutch, Dutch Dutch as you watched bombs away on Libya.

  7. I am going with Trump devoted supporters have a bit of racism going, not that all of us here do not have a long history there. Nor that every Trump supporter voted Trump on that premise. Reminds me of Bismark and King Ludwig.
