My goodness that man is a twat out of his depth and terrible at faking comprehension.

The Democrats look to be playing him, Bigly. What the GOP Congressional Leadership think is anyone's guess.

Oh my! I have visions of them putting an arm around his shoulder and telling him the nasty GOP are meanies, but they can make everyone love him again.

It could certainly happen.

Bigly

On hearing that 45 had said something ......less than fulsome about a Democrat senator, McCain said something along the lines of 'He attacked a Democrat? I thought he only attacked Republicans.....'

(Apologies that I may not have the exact quote. Smile)

cozietoesie · 07/09/2017 21:28

And here it is, more accurately.

"After he called on Sen. Claire McCaskill last week to vote for tax reform or lose her seat, some Republicans said privately they sighed with relief. "He went after a Democrat? Ooh, I'm astonished," said Sen. John McCain, an Arizona Republican. "I thought he goes after Republicans."

From Politico.

Yes. I wondered also about the funding of these lawyers...........

cozietoesie · 07/09/2017 21:48

It's a ......not inconsiderable expense for staffers - and there can't be many decent ones left. Wink

I love it if the Dems can use his total lack of comprehension of the system for their own ends.
Stunned by the impact of Irma and really hoping that all the super rich who patronise the Caribbean will dig deep to support the people there.

cozietoesie · 07/09/2017 22:03

There may be the odd individual who'll do so, I guess.

BiglyBadgers · 07/09/2017 22:15

I love it if the Dems can use his total lack of comprehension of the system for their own ends.

What would be really interesting is if the result ends up being the republicans turning on each other. I feel that actually this could be the thing that would make the GOP drop him. Not corruption, racism or Incompetence, but being seen to give the Dems what they want. There seems to be lots of unhappy conservatives about right now.

They would likely use 'something else' as the excuse, though.

lionheart · 07/09/2017 22:46

Wonder if Sanders was there.

lionheart · 07/09/2017 23:25

Yea.

Trump called Cuomo "my governor!" today and offered help on JFK & LaGuardia and praised the Tappan Zee bridge in Oval meeting.
