Fascinating hair raising stuff - I really hope it's genuine (albeit I don't want their true IDs discovered).

We all know how much of a loose cannon Trump is but the #Unholytrinity scares the shit outa me Shock

I assume then that you haven't read Tacitus? Now might be a good time to start - he knew his stuff even though he was a man of his age. Smile

PausingFlatly · 31/01/2017 14:00

cozie, I'm easily confused.

Please put my out of my misery: which "he" hasn't read Tacitus - the orange one or the RoguePOTUSstaff?

And, Tacitus? Bit more detail for those of us whose classical education consists of watching I, Claudius on the telly?

cozietoesie · 31/01/2017 13:54

I wonder what pressure is being put on Twitter management behind the scenes?

Ketchuponeverythingplease · 31/01/2017 01:07

Can you explain more, coezieyoesie?

cozietoesie · 31/01/2017 00:57

As I said once, he hasn't read - or hasn't absorbed if he has read - his Tacitus. Smile

Ketchuponeverythingplease · 31/01/2017 00:34

Wowzer.

Given that the hairy satsuma has already pissed off his own secret service, it's no surprise this is being left to run.

Go rogue!

TKRedLemonade · 31/01/2017 00:21

What about his tweet condoning the photos of Kate sunbathing years ago that they re posted. He is a twat

If the LGBT discrimination one is true the protests so far will seem like Cub Scout picnics in comparison to what will come.

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 23:36

Disinformation or not, they have over 360,000 followers.

chicaguapa · 30/01/2017 21:28

I read on another thread that he's removing the illegality of LGBT discrimination if tolerance goes against your religious beliefs.

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 21:25

Follow through on the hashtags they use, ye. It's not Trump-authored but that's as far as I would be prepared to go right now.

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 21:22

He clearly doesn't know his Tacitus that well. Smile

yeOldeTrout · 30/01/2017 20:22

If that twitter account is fake, then it's extremely good and worth it as fiction alone. I find every word of it believable. WTF is Louise Mensch's obsession, though?

I imagine anti LBGT ExecO will be something to do with gay marriage. Not recognising Gmarriage, or banning LBGT people from something that constitution doesn't easily cover.

The frontrunners for SCOTUS are very hard right, argh, Trump is like a slathery dog on Pence's lead right now.

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 20:18

My apologies. It's 8pm EST - not U.K. time.

BuntyFigglesworthSpiffington · 30/01/2017 20:16

I saw that tweet about the anti LGBT executive order! My God.

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 20:14

Has the new SCOTUS been announced yet?

BonnesVacances · 30/01/2017 20:12

I'm concerned about the comment that they think Putin has something on him and insist on being on the phone calls. And have offered to help him if he is being blackmailed. Shock

PausingFlatly · 30/01/2017 20:11

Yes, I just saw that yeOlde. Again with the caveat no one knows if this account is genuine:

Rumors are true. Expect by end of the week.

Rogue POTUS Staff added,

@RoguePOTUSStaff there are rumors of anti LGBT EO coming. Can you shed light on that?

yeOldeTrout · 30/01/2017 20:03

I'm riveted. Will we see an anti LBGT Exec Order by end of the week, then?

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 10:32

There's a disturbingly (to me) febrile atmosphere around.

lljkk · 30/01/2017 10:23

4th Amendment offers some protection for US citizens to follow whoever we like on Twitter & not have to disclose it either (leads to 5th amendment as well); a search warrant has to be produced for The Donald's team to force info release.

"[T]he right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

However, white house staff probably have signed contracts with more stringent rules. I wonder if they could be done for treason?

cozietoesie · 30/01/2017 09:03

There's thought that it's LARPing. It's a sad day for us all.

AlwaysTheWinner · 30/01/2017 08:30

The more they tweet, the more I doubt that it's authentic. Also, why is Louise Mensch so obsessed with unmasking them and why do they keep drawing attention to her? Hmm

OneWithTheForce · 30/01/2017 01:29

Bet it's melania and Barron. Grin

Formerpigwrestler9 · 30/01/2017 01:01

Should have been dont you think those exclamation marks detract seriously from their credibility
