I have to believe the CIA set that up knowing he would make a total ignoramus of himself once again. Put him in that location, that wall as a backdrop, addressing some truly smart people, and watch him self-immolate in a bonfire of narcissism. And he imagines he charmed their pants off complimenting them just a week…
Having covered the NH campaign, that is exactly what will happen.
This was one of my faves today. We were saying it in our best Regina George all day after seeing it near the start of the rally and even shouted it at the rando pro-life fuckers with the fetus poster as we were walking home from the White House. So many great signs today though it would be impossible to name a single…
Washington Post does a great series called “Pinocchio Tests” for claims made by politicians. They do it for both sides of the political spectrum and have noted many times that Trump has scored Four Pinocchios (the highest number) an unprecedented number of times.
I can’t imagine how anybody watching the CIA speech didn’t cringe. That was yugely embarrassing. All I could think was, shut up, please shut up, you’re making it worse with every word.
The most obvious lie was when he said “God looked down”. I’m pretty sure if God were paying any attention to this at all we would all have been flooded by now.
Thank you for your service!
Am I the only one who got a shiver down my spine when I heard Trump say “God looked down and, and he said we’re not going to let it rain on your speech”?
Alcohol poisoning is a terrible way to die tho.
I hope American journalists show even half the bravery of the Syrian political cartoonist Ali Ferzat, whose response to having his hands broken by Assad thugs was “It only hurts when I laugh. But when I think that Assad is afraid of a pencil, I can’t help laughing!”
Well at least they’re reporting facts. Unlike what most media outlets did during the campaign. “Trump claims,” without any clarification that was he said was completely a lie.
He can hold me accountable all he wants. I have over 200 years of history behind me. Come at me, you fucking tangerine.
I was anchoring today and spelled out the President was lying. It was my third story down, post marches and the CIA clusterfuck, and I very specifically said the crowd DID NOT back to the monument, and that numbers did not match what Spicer said.
Drinking game: shot every time you read the word “falsely” or any variation.
I kind of love that WaPo is now just flat-out saying that Trump is lying:
He also made this terrifying statement: “We’re going to hold the press accountable.” That’s the direct opposite of how things work in a free nation, asshole.
I was literally yelling at my TV.
