What the fresh hell. This is REAL. Filmed in 1958- about a conman who grifts a small town of suckers into building a wall. History not subtle enough for you? GUESS THE GRIFTER'S NAME (And watch until the end) pic.twitter.com/6FA3p6KC00
I think time travellers must end up writing scripts for TV shows, because it’s the only way they can get people to believe their stories.
That or else it was just based on Trump’s father, who was already pretty infamous in NYC by that point.

In his “defence”, your skills tend to go out the window when you’re suffering from dementia.

The dems really need to emphasize that the republicans had both houses and the presidency for two years now and couldn't get the wall past their own people. For them to hold their breath until they turn blue now is the ultimate in cynical grandstanding.
The dems are tots iggin' me man. They're acting like this is a legitimate time and way to have this fight, as if it's just a normal way to resolve policy issues through the legilative process. They're just chugging along like they enjoy the fight, oblivious to the easy pickings propaganda optics wise. This is why it's hard to be a democrat. Sometimes it feels like they're throwing the game.
It's fucking easy! Just point out that this was not an issue until the instant democrats were voted into the house. It's nothing but a cynical maneuver, a ridiculous ploy.
Spell it out. Just calling it a manufactured emergency doesn't really communicate the full context.

I have a dream.
I have a dream that Trump and Pence will be leaving the White House within the next 2 years -- and going straight into federal prison, where they belong. Further, I hope that Gorsuch and Kavanaugh are removed from the Court, on the grounds that their appointments were illegitimate and neither one of them should ever have been allowed anywhere near the Court.
I don't think there's much chance of these things happening, alas, but that thread does give me some slight hope that Justice may ultimately be served.

Few photos have better encapsulated Trump and the presidency than servant lighting candles in gilded gold holders while individual sauce packets and fast food burgers sit in their original containers.

I didn't know what those were about just now. I thought it was just, what is saying, as I've heard Trump just eats fast food because he doesn't trust regularly made food or whatever that thing is. Then I just find out that's what he's serving collegiate guests visiting the White House.
Be my guest, be my guest Put my loyalty to the test There's no disputin' I'm owned by Putin Soon to be under arrest. Lukewarm meat, fried potato I've got orders to quit NATO Try the crime - it's overflowing! Don't believe me - call Mike Cohen!#WhiteHouseDinnershttps://t.co/Zw99FXDxHz
The Trump administration: proving once again that shit on a silver platter is still shit.

I love that the Lincoln face palm changes in every one of these edits I've seen, like there isn't just one single face palm that fully encapsulates the moment, each image completely uses up that face palm and a new one must be brought in in each new meme image.
Today you will not be receiving your regularly scheduled paycheck. To the best of my knowledge, this marks the first time in our Nation’s history that servicemembers in a U.S. Armed Force have not been paid during a lapse in appropriations.

Sadly, given the security concerns and unless government re-opens this week, I suggest that we work together to determine another suitable date after government has re-opened for this address or for you to consider delivering your State of the Union address in writing to the Congress on January 29th.
Most delectably, there is precedent for such a delay, involving you'll never guess who, unless it's something you happen to remember. I didn't.
Quote:
Delaying a presidential address to a joint session of Congress is not without precedent. In 2011, then-President Barack Obama agreed to delay a special address to Congress at the request of then-House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), after Boehner argued that the last-minute event required more time for arranging security.

So, I read what the US Constitution says about the State of the Union.
Quote:
He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient
Most of the ceremony we recognize as the State of the Union is primarily tradition.
Turns out Cohen underpaid the CIO of Falwell's religious university to do some rigging. Instead of $50 grand, a Wal Mart bag of $13 grand and a used boxing glove. Peak Trump.
