Our bigly armada is...somewhere! Watch out, gentleman! Trump cont..

[TheClaws]

As the armada appears in waters nowhere near where it was said to be, Trump blusters on in his usual dignified, courtly manner. Easter weekend had us worried about nuclear strikes; DT put a fair bit of work into his golf swing. Business as usual! Carry on, everyone!

Oooooh interesting!!!

GOP megadonor won't join Trump admin after failure to obtain ethics clearance: report hill.cm/plNPdz3

"failure to obtain ethics clearance" Go figure. Shocking. Really.

Natsku, that sounds really disconcerting.

Personally I wouldn't take Mensch's word on anything. She may have lots of dots, but they may not join up the way she says, and anyway some of them may be ink blots...

.....failure to obtain ethics clearance......?

How can this be?

You might have to wait until he takes his morning shit, Ginger - that's when he's at his most prolific.

THIS is very much the problem....

Mort That was a mental picture I could have done without.....

I believe some of what Mensch says - and/or when she provides actual evidence.

Mort - I honestly hadn't thought of why he was up in the middle of the night. hahaha So the "shit" thing never occurred to me.

45 is maybe jealous of Jong Un. He apparently doesn't need to.

Here you all go.

Armada heads to Korea

I think that's the thing with Mensch: you're watching real time reporting

Sometimes it's a gem, and scoop.

Sometimes she goes off down strange rabbit holes and it's seemingly all conjecture.

I'm totally unconvinced about the Pence report she wrote. Some of the other stuff is far more plausible

U.S. defense officials may have spoken too soon, but Trump’s missing ‘armada’ finally heading to Korea

That's the thing with being in charge. You can order your ships to do things they weren't going to, so that it looks like that was your intention all along.

But, wasn't Trump supposed not to telegraph his intentions? Surely it would be better to say the ships were heading towards Japan, then just move a bit towards NK.

Ho Hum. Let's try that again.
