I really, really want to believe RoguePOTUSStaff is real. So much of what they say seems plausible. But then Trump is such an obvious bully and narcissist that it might not be that hard to 'predict' how he'd respond.

Dum I genuinely choked on my tea at that picture! My nose feels weird now. Grin

Did Duck Fart tweet about Obama from his POTUS Twitter account or his personal one? I think something as trivial seeming as that could be used in this day & age to discriminate between personal/professional communications.

cozietoesie · 05/03/2017 23:29

I just think that if it's real then he has seriously, seriously lost his .intel community.

Mind you....................

FBI chief James Comey has rejected President Trump's claim that Barack Obama tapped his phone, US media report. bbc.in/2mcdvPC

cozietoesie · 06/03/2017 00:19

I wonder if 45's phone has been hidden from him?

illegitimateMortificadospawn · 06/03/2017 00:22

Interesting development re:FBI/Comey.

TheClaws · 06/03/2017 00:47

AGnu He tweeted about Obama from his personal account, although he does sometimes copy his personal whinges to the POTUS account (as he did for the Sessions one). For Trump, I don't think it makes a difference (legally) if the tweet is from his personal account or the POTUS account. His personal account is sub-titled '45th President of the United States of America' anyway, lending an official tone to all communications. I don't think he'd have much room to move there.

He makes a pretty good argument, Bagel.

wealdenmonkey · 06/03/2017 01:18

AcrossthePond, RoguePOTUSStaff is disinformation.

Beware!

TheClaws · 06/03/2017 01:52

Wealden, we do take RoguePOTUS with a grain of salt, but do you know something we don't? And when you say "misinformation," do you imply deliberate misdirection?

AcrossthePond55 · 06/03/2017 02:12

Wealden, can you cite your source for this or at the very least the reasoning behind your 'beware'?

I'm not saying it's 'real', mind you. But to me if it's not, it's just a rather harmless 'take the mickey' account. You're implying that it's disseminating misinformation for some specific purpose.

TheClaws · 06/03/2017 02:25

I did happen to see a post of Wealden's on a thread about the location of MNers where s/he said the Brexit and Trump threads are comprised mainly of Russian posters. Not sure what that means either?

AcrossthePond55 · 06/03/2017 02:34

Ah, I see then Claws. If that's so then a "That's nice, dear" and a pat on her head is called for.

HelsinkiLights · 06/03/2017 02:38

Well as far as I know I'm definitely not Russian.

HelsinkiLights · 06/03/2017 02:42

But seriously funny how it all kicks off again at the weekend.

TheClaws · 06/03/2017 02:59

I have Russian friends though! (No, really, I do)

HelsinkiLights · 06/03/2017 03:08

I learnt Russian for a year whilst I was in 6th form, was done as an optional thing.
Mind you that was a long time ago!
Bizarrely it only comes in handy when we go to Greece. As Greek & Russian share similar alphabets it comes it useful for reading road/information signs.

Best drunk neat Pond Grin

Am beginning to think that Trump should start drinking as then maybe he'll make sense.
Though that wouldn't be fun as there would be no Trumpgate or Trumpton.

My spellchecker's on the ball as when I typed in Trump it suggested Trumpgate. Unless spellchecker knows what happens next......

AcrossthePond55 · 06/03/2017 03:31

I have to admit I was surprised to know that he was teetotal. Still not sure I completely believe it.

OMG, can you just imagine Trump's 'drunk tweets'?

Hoping your spellchecker is prescient. Or maybe it should be called your 'spellcaster'.
