Good King Trump

....an attack in Kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers, and 11 other people. I immediately cancelled the meeting and called off peace negotiations. What kind of people would kill so many in order to seemingly strengthen their bargaining position? They didn’t, they....

He seen the CIA's record?

....only made it worse! If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway. How many more decades are they willing to fight?

Maybe check with Alexander the Great on that.

I'm sure that's unrelated to him canceling the meeting though.

[Pyrrho]

No Nobel Prize this week, eh?

Now we'll have to endure wall-to-wall coverage of the rage Tweets he'll be spewing all week, thus making any 9/11 remembrance all about him. I'm sure he'd have announced any so-called peace deal on 9/11, anyway, so the focus would have been on him anyway.

On the other hand, maybe the Alabama/Dorian shitstorm will dissipate.

God what fraking bizarro timeline are we living in?

On my first hand, I want to yell at the media for focusing on whatever dumb ass random shit moronic thing he or one of his lickophants has said or done this time. There's enough truly heinous shit he has said or done all ready that we don't have to keep adding to the pile. And then. AND THEN. AND THEN whatever random shit moronic thing he or one of his lickophants has said or done KEEP FUCKING BUILDING until it becomes something worth talking about. AND WE HAVE NO FRAKING CHOICE BUT TO ADD IT TO THE PILE OF HEINOUS SHIT.

John Bolton to resign: Trump asks National Security Adviser to resign - CNNPolitics

Trump abruptly fires Bolton quite possibly for no other reason than Bolton helped nix his plan to host terrorists on 9/11. Such stable, much winning! Bolton went on Fox News to reiterate that (after he was told he was resigning) it was he who called to resign. Amusingly being the dick that he is, Trump allegedly said “we’ll talk about it tomorrow” then forgot to talk about it and instead tweeted that he told Bolton to resign.

Bolton is expected to go on in his acting career playing a southern sheriff during the Jim Crow era.

[Sock Puppet]

Even Bolton's cartoonishly simplistic view of foreign policy -- this is a guy who seems to think Team America is a documentary -- is too nuanced for Trump.

Of the news item headlines re Bolton's involuntary resignation, "Bolt off" was mildly amusing but I definitely liked "War Hawk Down".

[Stormlight]

lol and to think you guys almost voted that Clinton woman into office. Dodged that bullet, didn't you?

[JoeP]

Too soon, Stormy. Too soon.

[Kamilah Hauptmann]

Totally not too soon.

Bahamian girl separated from parents, ends up in Miami shelter | Miami Herald

Fleeing devastation, taken from godmother for lack of blood relation. Now another kid in a cage.

[BrotherMan]

Historians will long debate when the beginning of the end of America began. I'm thinking it's right around the time we decided that the murder of school children wasn't enough to move our collective asses of the fellating of an amendment. That may have roots from which that came, but the separation and imprisonment of children is, grotesquely, just another chapter of terrible decisions that we have allowed - both as a nation and humanity as a whole.

Tell Saudi Arabia and others that we want (demand!) free oil for the next ten years or we will not protect their private Boeing 747s.Pay up!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 11, 2014

Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!

Pre-election Trump: Demand Saudia Arabia give us free oil for 10 years! We hold all the power!
Post-election Trump: We will defend our king and bestower of vroom vroom juice and offer free military support for 10 years.

Trump hitting petty and vindictive mode, is both rescinding california’s ability to regulate vehicle pollution, while at the same time Trump claims he’s going to sick the EPA on San Francisco for all the ‘pollution’ and needles he thinks are washing into the ocean. He’s also singled out LA for being dirty and needing to be cleaned up while being such a dunce that he wants to bring back LA smog. Almost as if when he says ‘dirty’ he means poor and brown.

Ben Carson visited the other day to make sure the Transamerica Pyramid was holding the right amount of grain, while Sun Microsystems cofounder Scott McNealy helped Trump raise $15 million at a fund raiser at McNealy’s house. Con-men gotta stick together.

If Jerome were here, he'd tell you all about how you're afraid of and intimidated by an intelligent black man.
