Trump is supposed to be delivering another speech in Ohio in less than an hour but he simply refuses to stop rambling in Vandalia

APparently if you throw a glass of water on an electric catapult on a carrier it's the 'end of it' and you need to bring 'a guy in from MIT to fix it'
The 'catapulters' told him. He asked them, they told him "Sir, electric is no good, sir steam is the best, I can fix it with a blowtorch or this hammer"

:covereyes

I hope the crowd is enjoying their stable genius.

Perhaps that's a clue to the nature of this bizarre presidency: Trump is actually from an alternate, steampunk universe. The things he says make perfect sense in the context of what's happening there, it only seems crazy to us because this is not the correct universe for Trump.

That would explain all the gaudy brass crap he fills his hotels with. And he already has his own airship.

His crowds don’t understand him any more than sane people do. Never have, never will. They just assume he is saying things they like and agree with because he has more money than them. To those crowds rich people are smart.

This wouldn't be the case if Biden or his campaign managers knew how to counter that crap instead of just whining about it.

What media are you referring to, Fox and Breitbart?

He says crap like that all the time, it's purely to get news headlines just like when he says he thinks he deserves another year or another term because the press was mean to him.

He's playing the media.

It missed a spot when it put the lotion on its skin.

And the idiot imagines everyone calls him "Sir".

:dl:

I've been working on taking the scene from "Full Metal Jacket" with the Vietnamese sex worker and putting Trump's head on the prostitute and Putin's head on Mathew Modine's character.

I'm glad Trump has moved on from divulging military secrets and outing intelligence assets to fabulating about invisible hydrosonic F-35s super-duper fighters launched by electric catapults that should be steam catapults.

:boggled:

It's possible he thinks he's still doing that. There's probably someone at Area 51 right now building a crappy giant robot so they can show him Battletech and hear him leak it to the Japanese.

The sad saga of thoroughbred D.J. Trump, Donald Trump’s lone foray into horse racing


Trump agreed to buy a horse, never ended up paying for it, and damn near killed the poor thing because he insisted on racing a sick horse.

Underwater.................what?!

Yeah, that's about how I picture Trump to treat an animal. It's a very good thing he jas no pet.

Just sticking this here because it's indicative of how absolutely nutty the Trump Republican party has become:

This is an ad for Kelly Loeffler. To be clear, it is an ad BY Loeffler to make herself look APPEALING to voters, and NOT like a crazy person.

Trump the Eugenist repeated his "good genes" belief at a rally.
His audience doesn't realize that he was calling most of them Untermensch.

It's faster than the speed of water

Well Doug Collins said Attila the Hun was an open borders pro abortion athiest in response. I don't want to meet the people who's votes they are fighting over.

Why, oh why did all my ancestors have to come over from Europe so long ago making me ineligible for another citizenship?

Some some more details about the fight to keep Trump's tax information hidden..

From: CNBC
President Donald Trump and his business could be facing a criminal tax probe by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office, prosecutors suggested Monday in a court filing....While prosecutors last month suggested that they might be eyeing the Trump Organization for possible bank and insurance fraud, Monday’s filing was the first time they had publicly said that their probe might encompass potential tax crimes.

Hopefully they are successful. And also that the charges are not like those levied against the Trump foundation, but ones that can result in actual jail time.

Trump is already losing a ton of money; losing the Presidential immunity will make things worse.
And, of course, Trump's original plan was to start a TV show instead of becoming President, but that slot is now filled by OAN - he might get a job there, but that's the best he can hope for.

Over at Toownhall, I was reading an opinion piece about how the "silent majority" are afraid to speak out for Trump because of violence by the left. This writer went to Michigan to interview some people to bolster her case. Here is a quote from one of her interviews:

I know we've talked a lot about the unworldliness of Trumpers but even so the hi9ghlighted sentence smacked my gob. Un - freakin' -believeable. I posted a comment; we'll see what wonderful names it get called. :eek:

The whitest sentence I've ever typed: "Season 2 is great because the docks add a whole new dimension to the show's central character: the city of Baltimore."

These people have no grasp of history, and how populist scumbags operate. Hitler ostentatiously declined his salary, projecting the same 'selfless' sacrificing for the people.

Truly delusional. He doesn't give a crap about 'the people'. Even his own sister recognizes that. God, these people are dumb.

If they are afraid of the violence of the left coming to their town and perhaps even their street, then perhaps they should buy a gun and learn how to use it

They seem worried about the "violence of the left". LOL.

First, I thought Trump told them "the left" was so weak it couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. And the Trump side, the "right" side, is all-powerful and triumphant and will roll over all opposition unimpeded. And yet...the wimps are now somehow sooper-scary?? HUH??! So which is it: latte-sipping wimps, or a rampaging proletariat at the gates of the Winter Palace? Pick one.

Second, who's a triggered little snowflake now?

I didn't know what thread to put this in but I thought this might do. Interesting true story about the 'wonderful' and efficient U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
My SIL's brother was born in Germany to a German mother and US born citizen father who was serving in the US Army back in the late 1950's. They were legally married. He was raised in the US. He gave up his automatic dual German citizenship to serve in the US Coast Guard. A few years ago he moved to Thailand. Just before coming back to the US last March, he had his wallet pick pocketed. Upon landing in Seattle, his passport and all his papers were confiscated and he was told he was not a US citizen. His birth certificate was in German because he was not born in a military base hospital.

He was assigned a case worker who couldn't care less that he was obviously an American had lived here since a small child and had a (deceased) American father who was undoubtedly a US citizen. She told him he had no right to have served in the Coast Guard. He was about to be deported to God knows where (they wouldn't tell him) when he was given another case worker who was able to obtain the proof that he was a US citizen. Chilling to think he could have been deported with no money and no paper work to some third world country because of some idiot ICE worker who didn't give a damn.

BuzzFeed has its hands on leaked documents that link Deutsche Bank, the only one that would deal with him, to large scale money laundering.

Very frightening.
It seems clear that ICE measures its success by the number of deportations,.

I think that one of the lines in that ad should be noted, quite clearly, though.

"Eliminate the liberal scribes."

AKA, destroy the free press.

I think that we're at the point where we can safely respond to any claims by Republicans that the Republican Party actually values the 1st Amendment with ridicule.

They just have a different interpretation of what 'free' means in 'free' speech and 'free' press.

As I watched the commercial, I figured she was running for state senate. I was quite wrong: she is running for the US Senate.

:eek:

Ohhhh. Georgia.

Senate Democrats are wrong to smear Republicans for investigating the truth about Hunter Biden and Ukraine.
But we shouldn’t be surprised.
When you drain the Swamp, the Swamp fights back.

@SenateGOP Crazy Nancy Pelosi wants to Impeach me if I fulfill my Constitutional Obligation to put forth a Nominee for the vacated seat on the United States Supreme Court. This would be a FIRST, even crazier than being Impeached for making a PERFECT phone call to Ukrainian Pres.

Yet something else I don’t get about Trump. Doesn’t the POTUS have access to the best make-up artists in the world? Yet a 16 year old girl could do it much better. Both color and evenness. I thought maybe this is another deliberate trolling of the media. But then I realized this must be his ego! He does his own make-up because he doesn’t want anyone else to know. He really believes that no one else can detect his clever self-applied Venusian tan as fake!

Or maybe his make-up person hates him...

I don’t know about his hair weave...

Like his silly build a wall thing. Everyone knew that was a metaphor or just to grab headlines.

He means everything he says the same ammount, it is if it gets traction or not that matters.

No Sherlock. She is allegedly considering this as one way of throwing a shoe in your SC nomination and confirmation machinery to slow it down until after the election.

But after the Woodward interviews I really don’t know if Trump is that stupid, trolling his opposition, or trolling his supporters. I now often think he toys with his supporters amusing himself with just how stupid they are.

That’s over 4 times its speed in air. ;)

Well... looks like Barr's officially designated Seattle, Portland, and NYC as "anarchist" jurisdictions.

Sure looks like an openly political move to me and is quite worth derision. Beyond that, though, this seems to be the result of...

Utterly and completely unacceptable. Unfortunately, the Trump Presidency seems like it's been one long onslaught of the utterly and completely unacceptable.

Maybe he imagines it has the amazing ability to fly in the rain. Tremendous!
[emoji1]

My guess is that his eyesight is bad and he's too vain for glasses, too squeamish for contacts, and too narcissistic to realize the whole universe isn't blurry it's just his own perception. I think Trump's incapable of realizing other people don't literally see everything the same way he does.

Unlike Marine 1 I guess. ;)

"If I lose to [Joe Biden] I don't know what I'm gonna do," Trump says in the quick clip. "I will never speak to you again. You'll never see me again."

The short ad then cuts to a picture of a grinning Biden. "I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message,"

He said it before about Finland when they ‘advised him to rake the forests‘. I think the Finns were a bit bemused by it.
