And you have people coming over with bags of soup — big bags of soup. And they lay it on the ground, and the anarchists take it and they start throwing it at our cops, at our police. And if it hits you, that's worse than a brick because that's got force. It's the perfect size. It's, like, made perfect.

And when they get caught, they say, 'No, this is just soup for my family.' And then the media says, 'This is just soup. These people are very, very innocent. They're innocent people. These are just protesters. Isn't it wonderful to allow protesting?'"
Umm, yeah Mr. President....

Pence says he "doesn't recall" being put on standby during Trump's unscheduled Saturday visit to Walter Reed last November. No denial. Just "doesn't recall". That's the standard 'non-denial' used when you can't honestly deny something. He so was put on standby.

Recently uncovered footage from late July. I had to look it up myself because I assumed kookbreaker was making some obscure sitcom reference.

That's interesting because all I read was a small stroke. So now we know, the diagnosis was a series of mini-strokes. They probably put him on anti-coags.

In Bad Boys, Sean Penn used cans of Soda in a pillowcase as a weapon. Bags of soup, sheesh.

I think that's likely. When my mom had a TIA, she had another shortly thereafter. I think he inadvertently let out more info.

He's also using the tactic of just continually talking over John (the host filling in for Cooper, don't know his last name) when he's called on the fallacy of that argument. What a slime ball.

ETA: First that flight was coming into Washington. Later today he claimed it was leaving DC. He can't even keep his own lies straight.

Norman Alexander 1st September 2020 06:36 PM

Come on, USA. You have a big, beautiful, powerful constitution, and the 25th Amendment in that big, beautiful, powerful constitution deals with removing a president who can no longer president properly.

Just bite the big, beautiful, powerful bullet and ditch the raving moron. It's getting to the stage that he can't even dress or toilet himself. Because this **** just keeps on dribbling out of him in public. It's embarrassing for everyone, and bad for your country.

Fix it.

Biden's facing-off with Trump at the national level : Senate seats are a State-level subject. It's up to the State Democratic Party to point up the connection.

It can't be Soros because Trump said Biden is being controlled by people on the streets 'you've never heard of'.

Understood. But I suspect even they are seeing that being the only rats staying on this rapidly sinking ship captained by a cross-eyed lunatic criminal is perhaps not the best career-advancing option after all.

I Am The Scum 1st September 2020 06:54 PM

Bags of soup are sometimes used in fast-service restaurants. They come frozen so you can easily thaw and reheat in the double boiler. I doubt Donald knew anything about that, though. They're definitely not easy to come by. You can't buy them at the super market. Maybe the restaurant is in on it.

It seems to have originated as cans of soup in a sock or pillowcase. Anti-antifa influencers online (baselessly) accused BLM of using these as a weapon.

Trump, not knowing one food item from another if it hit him upside the head because he has never seen the inside of a kitchen except for walking through one to find the nearest media conference, confuselled "cans" for "bags" in his tiny muddled brainspace.

Jim_MDP 1st September 2020 07:06 PM

Well hell... another half-measure cockup from the Donald.
An eviction moratorium for renters through year's end.
What about property owners? Who's going to be the next Mnuchin jackhole to snap up apartment buildings in foreclosure come January?
And will renters be protected then from a six or seven month back rent bill?

I left halway through the Obama years. I should have stayed until he left so that a liveable US is somewhat recent in my memory. But alas, I'm glad I got out when I did. Sad to watch from abroad.

My guess is that he meant that one or more people bring bags containing multiple cans of soup to distribute to other protesters.

Double boiler?! Got to use a microwave to get them up to boiling lava hot! Otherwise Hot Pockets™ are much more throwable.

Mike Pence was never put on standby, & there were no mini-strokes. This is just more Fake News by @CNN, a phony story. The reason for the visit to Walter Reed, together with the full press pool, was to complete my yearly physical. Short visit, then returned (with press) to W.H...

Speaking of brain farts. I must have had impeachment on my mind saying removal would be a Senate decision.
Same result though... VP and his own cabinet oust Trump? Not gonna happen.

I thought he said at the time it was the FIRST portion of a check-up (not a thing) and not the completion of same.
I may be mistaken, not that the story holds up either way.

You don't remember that, Donny, because (a) you never listen to anything anyone tells you anyway, (b) because of that and your powerful ability to blurt out all the secret squirrel stuff in public like a broken fountain, your peeps are being quite selective about what they do tell you, and (c) you were having a bunch of brain-fades at the time requiring you to go to hospital.
