"If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention." Trump threads continued [title edited by MNHQ]

I'm paying attention.

Hello Malmsey. Glad you and others have delurked.

Happy to go with either option for the thread title.

I can be very agreeable.

Or indeed the third option which just popped up.

So, something like:

"If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention": Trump, Bastard, Trump, What the Hell, Blah Blah Pig .

Sadly, Plectrum, I"m not sure that everyone knows how the thought originated. (The thought used in the title.) I rather like the idea of melding it with something individual,

An excellent child, bad.

He's up again talking about how great he is.

Oh God are we going to be dragged into this North Korea nonsense...?

Just delurking to agree with your earlier comment PlectrumElectrum “I'd definitely ace a modern studies exam on US politics, the trump presidency & administration & MSM thanks to all of the fantastic contributors to these threads.”

Remember when the guardian did its quiz 4 months ago? I did brilliantly

Apologies if this has been posted further up the thread.

Ha I just did that quiz, got 40 out of 50 right!

I got 26/50. The correct answers were scarier than the ones I picked.....

Good point cozie - how about 'Trump: If you're not outraged, your not paying attention - 'insert topical comment/intro'

Might end up a bit 'war & peace' in the heading, assuming there's enough space?

Or 'Trump: topical comment/intro' & then quote at top of each thread Heather's words, as suggested by bad?

I'm off to try that quiz, and if I don't pass, I'm looking at you lot

We need to send DJT to NK, and find a suitable lookalike and replace him (as in the movie Dave, see clip)
I'd call it "repeal and replace the President".

Hurricane Harvey is gearing up to be a significant, dangerous storm (probably strong cat 3 on landfall), bid tidal surges and potential for a lot of damage to infrastructure, loss of life.

It's going to be another test of Trumps abilities (or lack of). I wonder how well he's going to handle a (potentially) serious natural disaster on mainland USA?

He won't, lettice.

I love 'Dave'. (Have a copy of it.)

Sorry. lettuce.

That would be my concern 🙁

The CSZ could go to a full margin rupture at any point. Just remember that.

Re the question 'How many of these threads have there been' - I don't have a number (I may try counting later - Sad!) but looking at my Thread Watching history I think that this was the very first one - posted as a response to Trump's tweet about the lovely Meryl Streep.
History in the making

There have been a great many, NorthWest. I wouldn't bother counting them, myself.

Yes Cozie counting them would end up being disheartening as the thread titles will be yet another reminder of his awfulness!
Although as the sun's over the yard arm or would help soften the impact

Baldwin on Trump.

Will we have the impersonator doing the job at some point?

Try an Alexander. (You can make a gin Alexander even though brandy is more usual. )

If I was on the hurricane's path, I'd be very worried. It's a good thing that there is state government, but if they need evil federal help, there's nobody there to deal with it.

Love this headline, 'Turd Reich', possible thread title?( or just too much...?)

Turd Reich - Heil Trump.
