He was fucking joking about the police using too much force?

He basically told them it was okay to use force. So really technically worse.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 31/07/2017 21:28

How can she not tell us if he was fired or left? Surely it's something that should be on public record?

Lweji · 31/07/2017 21:28

"Comments were inappropriate" drinking game is on.

Direct quote: When you see these towns and when you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon — you just see them thrown in, rough — I said, ‘Please don’t be too nice. [...] Like when you guys put somebody in the car and you’re protecting their head, you know, the way you put their hand over? Like, don’t hit their head and they’ve just killed somebody — don’t hit their head. I said, ‘You can take the hand away, okay?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 31/07/2017 21:29

How is that a joke?

Roussette · 31/07/2017 21:30

Exactly Bossy. That is at best a suggestion from the POTUS to the Police. At worst a direction.

Lweji · 31/07/2017 21:32

And she's off...

I bet she's just joking and will be back.

Remember when Scaramucci fired Priebus & ppl said it's like shanking the strongest guy on your 1st day?

Welcome to Kelly's 1st day.

MSNBC's correspondent actually just said that Trump 'loves chaos' and has a long history of setting up these rivalries and in-fighting in his business career before becoming president.

I can see how this would suit his style, but does anyone actually have any details that confirm this?

Lweji · 31/07/2017 21:39

Maybe. But Tony wasn't strong, just too full of himself.

FantasticButtocks · 31/07/2017 21:39

The mooch has actually been fired before he officially started the job! I said that would happen! Grin well I said it to DH anyway.

cozietoesie · 31/07/2017 21:42

She's still trying to play the 'I'm just a working Mom' card. Trouble is that it's stopping working.

cozietoesie · 31/07/2017 21:42

Agreed. He was weak.

TheNorthWestPawsage · 31/07/2017 21:43

Well, I'll go to the foot of our stairs! Just watched the presser and heard the news - Hahahahahahaha! RIP The Mooch. Grin

Lweji · 31/07/2017 21:46

does anyone actually have any details that confirm this?

It's been mentioned quite a lot in different places by different people, so I assume it's true.

Elendon · 31/07/2017 21:47

When the slogan Make America Great Again was rehashed did they get the spelling wrong?

Make America Grate Again is what they really meant.

Elendon · 31/07/2017 21:50

And Donald Trump is just a working dad isn't he?

BossyBitch · 31/07/2017 21:54

Elendon I guess technically that means we're supposed to be sorry for the poor kids. Then again: Eric!

cozietoesie · 31/07/2017 21:55

Oh Yes. ET is on at 10 isn't he? Grin

cozietoesie · 31/07/2017 21:56

Sadly, I think that that's 22.00 EST.

Lweji · 31/07/2017 22:03

Will he phone home?

SetPhasersTaeMalkie · 31/07/2017 22:05

We still have Newsnight cozie.

Bet EmilyM is Grin Grin

In a pragmatically minded housekeeping related PSA:

I hereby officially propose that the next thread be entitled [Variable thread title to be mentally amended to suit whatever the scandal of the hour happens to be]

We can't possibly fill an entire thread per outrage at this rate.

AcrossthePond55 · 31/07/2017 22:11

Maddow Show should be excellent tonight

Ryan Lizza has just posted his take on Scaramucci.

Article herewww.newyorker.com/news/ryan-lizza/anthony-scaramuccis-ouster-may-show-that-john-kelly-has-the-rare-ability-to-rein-in-trump/amp

Interesting.
