I hate how much this Trumpster fire is making me yearn for the George W. Bush administration. At least they were COMPETENT idiots!

The biggest issue, of course, is that if any of us tried to apply for a job in which we had absolutely ZERO relevant experience in the field, we’d be laughed out of the interview room. Actually, scratch that—we wouldn’t even get an interview in the first place. The hiring manager would simply scoff and toss our…

For all the talk of the “liberal/coastal bubble”, the average Trump voter knows shockingly little about the world outside their town. I genuinely don’t believe most of them know enough about the world to understand that his grandstanding could negatively impact their own lives. Other than his substance-free babbling…

It’s a big fucking deal. Chinese people can be insulted over non-verbal conduct such as how you sit and how you pay attention. This is totally next level shit.

Garrison Keillor had a great line recently that if poor white folks want a tycoon to rescue them at least they could have picked one who was in the military or went to church or played the oboe or literally anything but worship himself

But on the other hand, Hillary Clinton is bad at email. So there’s that.

Shit! GWB is a better president than Trump! Dang!

I heard that too. How do you find yourself one month away from being the leader of the free world, and yet you don’t avail yourself of EVERY opportunity to be prepared? I would be up all night every night studying, and I’d be consulting with experts before I talked to anybody, anywhere, ever, about anything.

I am just some random internet person and even I KNOW THAT WE DO NOT OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZE TAIWAN THIS IS A THING THAT IS GENERALLY KNOWN THIS MOTHERFUCKER IS SO DUMB.

Many of his fans thought his campaign bluster was just a brilliant act and that, underneath, he was a sober and intelligent man. (Although SOME of them just LOVE this stuff, and they voted him in because they want to keep on watching the circus act.)

Can you impeach a president before he takes office? Seven weeks people, surely he can cause a bigger fuck-up than pissing off China!

What the fuck do we do now? Did his voters just not care how bad and dangerous he is going to be for the citizens of this country? And they just thought, fuck it, what ever?

HIS ENTOURAGE IS MADE OF PEOPLE WITH ZERO POLITICAL EXPERIENCE AND A WHITE SUPREMACIST.

Well, to be fair, Trump pretty much campaigned on making China angry.

For real though, how can he be allowed to very obviously use his position in the federal government to his advantage in business dealings? That has to be breaking some law somewhere.

how is this legal? him using his federal position for his business?

Yeah, this is not going to work.

I find it more concerning that nobody in his entourage realized this was a bad idea and knocked the phone outta his hands. I mean, if there was ever a time for a secret service guy to be go rogue and be like “even I know you don’t say shit about Taiwan!” and shoot the phone...

much in the same way that words have meaning, donald, actions have consequences.
