Yup. It's Truer Now Than Ever

Quote:Conservative columnist says GOP should be terrified by Trump’s worsening incoherence
Quote:Conservative Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin on Monday noted that President Donald Trump appears to be “teetering on the brink of a complete meltdown” in response to mounting pressures both foreign and domestic.
“President Trump has never been a model of consistency or coherence,” Rubin wrote. “However, as pressure builds both from looming investigations and the impending transfer of power in the House from the Republican majority to the Democrats, his ability to maintain even the pretense of normalcy and rationality begins to crumble.”
The columnist pointed out that in the wake of the murder of American resident journalist Jamal Khashoggi, dismissed by Trump and assessed by the CIA as an order from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, there is “likely to be a bipartisan effort to cancel Saudi arms sales and to sanction all those involved.”
With Democrats soon to be in control of the House of Representatives, Rubin added, congressional committees will start investigating the president in earnest — yet another pressure that’s led to his increasingly public incoherence.
“As striking as Trump’s utter inability to grapple with basic problems,” she observed, “his staff’s unwillingness to maintain any semblance of unity and loyalty suggests they no long er think it’s in their personal interest to be associated with a president who makes mincemeat of one policy issue after another.”
“His childish inability to make hard decisions and engender possible complaints from his base makes him a hapless, inept figure,” Rubin concluded. “He’s not so much leading as he is meandering — with aides racing after him to prevent bigger disasters and embarrassments.”
Or, as FOX FUX see it....

Don't worry. The power of Faith is impervious to facts.
It's just that Trump has a cult of personality instead of a conventional religion but the same principles apply.

Indeed.

Quote:Trump dismisses findings of US government report on climate change
Quote:“I’ve seen it, I’ve read some of it, and it’s fine,” he told reporters at the White House. Asked about severe economic impacts, he said, “I don’t believe it.”
Last year, Trump announced he would withdraw the United States from the 2015 Paris Deal to combat climate change. He has also rolled back Obama-era environmental and climate protections to boost production of domestic fossil fuels.
The congressionally mandated report http://www.globalchange.gov, written with the help of more than a dozen U.S. government agencies and departments, said the effects of climate change would undermine human health, damage infrastructure, limit water availability, alter coastlines and increase costs in various industries.

How the fuck that asshole got so close to even the nomination is astounding. But we can never underestimate the gullibility of our fellow humans.

Quote:In July 2017, Trump made a speech in Youngstown, Ohio near the GM plant and vowed jobs were “all coming back.” He told local residents: “Don’t move. Don’t sell your house.”
And they were stupid enough to believe him!

You might think that our "Great Businessman President" would understand simple shit, like plants closing when there is not enough demand for that particular product.
Of course, Trump understands nothing of this, since the only product he has ever peddled is bullshit, and unfortunately there is no end of demand for that in some quarters.

Well, isn’t sweet - the leader of the-government-shouldn’t-meddle-with-the-economy party has resorted to threatening corporations. Fucking fascist twatwaffle.

Yup. That's one thing the orange turd gets. He's built his entire career on that fact. I have to give him credit for being the master manipulator of idiots.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
