Grotesque, greedy, gullible, graceless, gaslighting, gormless, god-forsaken grifter - Trump thread #147

[Spandauer]

Desperately seeking that Peace Prize.
May have to settle for the Hero of the Russian Federation award. Bigly sad.

And yet another surprise. Thanks Ghislaine, everybody understands where you're coming from, what a wonderful memory you have. What a shame you didn't speak up earlier and put an end to all the suspicion surrounding Bigly (he really reminds me of your father. You too, I suspect). I wonder if John Bolton had any Epstein documents tucked away in his bathroom?

Some good news for an evening 👏 👏

Really?

Yes.

@llizzie , yes, there's a lot of sarcasm, black humour and WTF-ing on this thread.🙌

Re Ghislaine Maxwell - we have to remember that her "inappropriate" isn't like most people's. I'm surprised she didn't use the opportunity to accuse all of Trump's enemies at the same time. That would have earned her a pardon for sure.

If MAGA suck up Maxwell's utter confection of lies and distortion then they're even more stupid than I think they are. Which should be impossible but this is what they've brought us to. Criminal in the White House and the testament of another convicted criminal liar to clear his name? Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you American Justice in all its glory.

@Serpentstooth I think you're doing the MAGAs a great misjustice. They really are stupider than you think.

My first thought was "what do you have to do for a sex trafficer to think it's inappropriate?". Then "can I trust someone hoping for a pardon to tell the truth about Trump anyway?". Answers are god knows and no.

The latest episode of Arthur Snell’s Behind the Lines is a fairly depressing discussion about the slide of the US into authoritarianism, with a specific focus on the attack against science. It’s worth a listen to and highlights the Trump action tracker, the aim of which is to help stay on top of all the various WTF actions/policies etc. https://www.trumpactiontracker.info/?

Newsom isn't stopping!

Fight fire with fire or in this case, bullshit with more bullshit.

As much as anything this might be about annoying Don Jnr who is now with his ex wife Kimberly Guilfoyle

I've ordered two

Didn’t DJTJ cheat on/dump KG?

They certainly ceased to be engaged some time late last year. He was said to be having dates or possibly sex with someone else, but they both claimed the decision to disengage themselves was mutual and no blame and all like that.

My aching sides

@SerendipityJane It that's true...🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oops, butterfingers with that sharpie!

They split last year I think - Don Jr and GNs ex wife.

Each to his own. Personally I cannot see funny in what he has done.

Do the Americans know that he represents them? What do the Americans think about their President's association with Putin?

Spite. Pure spite.

I wonder how long the American Air force was halted for Putin's plane to land in Alaska?

Was the Air Force stood down until he left?

I would have thought there would be at least some Air Force presence, before during and after Putin's visit.
