Tweet from Frederick Douglass @madnessmeme

Sean Spicer: There is no cow loose in Queens.
KellyAnne: The cow just wanted to buy Ivanka's stuff.
Milo: How old is the cow?

Meanwhile in Australia we seem to be having our own love-in with Netanyahu who is visiting.

That would be the original ban, Ginger?

They're trying all they know to keep attention off the 'Russian Connections'.

Missouri man accused of trying to aid ISIS-inspired attack cnn.it/2lkGkcd

Ah,see he's a US citizen as well. So Trump won't care.

GingerIvy · 21/02/2017 22:46

Yes, but people have been saying this new ban is the same principal - they've got a lot of attention on that.

Lweji · 21/02/2017 22:51

Ouch . And timely reminder of the 25th amendment.

Because Mike Pence is more acceptable to the world than Trump and he (and a majority of the cabinet) has the power to take the Presidency from Trump.

I'll always remember the fervour with which he took the Veep's oath. He wants it so badly.

SanFranBear · 21/02/2017 22:53

Thanks Cavemum - fading fast so only watched the first half hour of the Rock Hall programme bug fascinating. I covered the Dukakis bit - he actually seemed like a decent man actually.

Right - bed Grin

cozietoesie · 21/02/2017 22:54

Sorry. I wasn't saying that he wanted to be Veep so badly. Wink

saffronwblue · 21/02/2017 22:57

Yes, I think we may quite soon be looking at President Pence and thinking WTF happened?
Might even miss Ivanka, Kelly-Anne and the great weekends at Mar al Lago.

SanFranBear · 21/02/2017 22:57

So sorry for typos.. need to sleep!

cozietoesie · 21/02/2017 23:07

Ah. The 25th Amendment.

cozietoesie · 21/02/2017 23:13

I see that the word 'Nixonian' was used?

Lweji · 21/02/2017 23:17

Sorry. I wasn't saying that he wanted to be Veep so badly.

Yes, that was clear:

Meanwhile:
Trump almost gets lost wandering around the African American History Museum
Seriously? They have a Ben Carson exhibit? What kind of freakish museum is that?
Loving all the preparations and off the record voices.
Speech at about min 28.
" My wife [no name] was here last week and she still talks about it. Ivanka [not my daughter, but Ivanka] is here tonight"
"If you want to know the truth" - well, yes, please, but you're not going to give it to us, are you?

GingerIvy · 21/02/2017 23:21

I think Pence in some ways is worse than Trump, but at least he will generally remain within the law. I don't think Pence would take us into war like Trump will - I don't seem to recall seeing any Pence ties to Russia (does anyone else??). Pence is more the religious fanatic - but not in scary "let's take the world to God" kind of way. There will sadly be damage either way - but it's likely to be lesser damage with Pence at the helm.

You have to feel sorry for CPAC. They booked a perfectly normal Nazi in good faith and then found out he was some kind of weird Nazi.
