The Official "Damned Trump" Thread

[Brian37]

The WLB has the crossed the line into "deranged."

"Crossed"? Um no, he was verbally abused as a kid by his daddy growing up, at a minimum, if not also beaten as a kid. His daddy hated failure and would belittle his kids and yell at them when they failed. 45 was fucked up since he was a kid.

Trump angrily rants that ‘Obamacare is death’ – and it backfires hilariously

During a speech at the White House on Monday, President Donald Trump declared that “Obamacare is death.”

“They run out they say death, death, death — well Obamacare is death. That’s the one that’s death,” Trump said from the Roosevelt Room.

But the president’s claim that Obamacare was “death” quickly ignited mockery on social media.

‘I am beyond appalled’: Boy Scout parents furious about Trump’s ‘offensive’ Jamboree speech

President Donald Trump on Monday night gave a highly politicized speech to the annual Boy Scout Jamboree in which he bragged about his election victory, lashed out at the news media, and got thousands of Boy Scouts to boo former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

In the wake of the speech, several former Boy Scouts and current parents of Boy Scouts lashed out at the organization on its Facebook page and demanded that the Boy Scouts of America condemn the president’s speech.

“As a former Scout, as well as a former employee of Philmont Scout Ranch, I am beyond appalled that the Jamboree was turned into a political rally tonight,” wrote a Facebook user named Andy Karlson. “Unless the BSA condemns the President’s conduct (which included bullying, name-calling, and swearing) in strong and clear terms, I will know that there is no place for my two sons in scouting.”

“Please apologize for inviting the president to address the Jamboree,” wrote Tim Horneman, who said he was a former Eagle Scout. “You had to know he would say something dumb/offensive/ridiculous — and he did, of course. In the process, he got Scouts to degrade themselves and embarrassed those of us who are proud of our school-age days in Scouting.”

“As the parent of a new Cub Scout, I will expect an appropriate statement about what happened at the Jamboree tonight,” wrote Facebook user Mary Samsell. “You are not responsible for what the President said, or even for the disrespect that some of those in attendance showed booing the former President (and Scout), but you are responsible for how you respond and the message that sends.”

Only Mitch McConnell holds the power to keep Trump from replacing Sessions to end Mueller probe

There’s only one person who can stop President Donald Trump from installing a “toady” to shut down the special counsel investigation of his campaign ties to Russia — and he’s already pulled off the same trick to steal a Supreme Court seat.

The president has a “simple two-step process” for removing special counsel Robert Mueller, who has terrified Trump by looking into his family’s financial dealings, and only Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) can take away those powers, according to DC Report’s David Cay Johnson.

Trump announces ban on transgender troops in surprise tweets punctuated by ‘thank you’

President Donald Trump announced on Twitter that the U.S. military will not allow transgender service members.

The Defense Department ordered a six-month delay of an Obama policy to allow transgender recruits, and current rules had allowed trans people to serve but not enlist.

Trump tweeted a change to that policy Wednesday morning, apparently catching even the Pentagon press office by surprise.

“After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you.”

Well Trump is a dick, no surprise there.

I think he only wanted to become Prez to learn top secrets about aliens, Kennedy and such.

He is just fucking angry because the secrets don't match up with his paranoid bullshit, an he is so uber privileged he thinks he should know the answer to the universe.

Trump doesn't care about the American people, he just wants to have one over them. The truth is more prosaic than he hoped and he can't deal with hard reality.
