First briefing to reporters

[abaris]

I tried to start reading "1984" a few weeks ago and I only got about 50 pages before I had to put it down. Too depressing and real.

I read it the first time well before the real 1984. But up until 2001 I had no idea what kind of visionary Orwell had been.

Well there goes America...
Seriously you've had this guy for a couple of days and the only thing I can compare it to is Sept 11.
You've got a nut-job who thinks you haven't nuked enough places setting up a rerun of the Cuban Missile Crisis in the South China Sea.
I hope someone scrambled the codes, put it in wingdings or something...

Because he is an insecure cunt.

Yes, and now that Spicer's shameful performance in that first briefing went so badly and with investigations into a possible Russia connection proceeding, that insecure cunt has doubled down on his totally unsupported claim that he would have won the popular vote if not for 3-5 million votes illegally cast. The man can't help himself. He's like a cat chasing a laser pointer. I'm surprised he doesn't shit in a box.

One time I would have won the lottery if I had only gotten the last 4 numbers.  It's unfair!  Hitler would have won WWII if he had had a dozen nukes.  Doesn't the dummy realize that he won the damn election? Or maybe he's flapping his jaws just to get in some sly digs at Lying Crooked Hillary at how she boasted that she got the most votes. Unfortunately for her they were in the wrong places.

I am coming around to the idea that this impulsive man-child schtick is a crazy-like-a-fox routine. As long as he can dominate a news cycle with every brain fart he tweets or lets slip, he can keep everyone distracted and up in arms about nothing while he and the GOP leadership quietly gut everything in plain sight.

Maybe we are the ones chasing the laser pointer, after all.

That said, he is undeniably an insecure cunt. He's just not entirely stupid (unforgivably incurious and ignorant, yes, but not stupid); in fact, he's crafty as hell. A dangerous combination.

The wingding is behind the desk.

Right now he has a lot of energy.  I wonder how long he will be able to keep it up.

I'm actually surprised that the Trump cabal didn't repeat the Shrub lie that the Clintons thrashed the White House before his coup.
