Emperor Little Gloves Speaks

And we all react predictably: goddamn.

Have a good weekend, a happy new year, and see you in 2018...

Saddle Sore Loser

I'd say "and the horse you rode in on," but it's not the horse's fault. Would be nice if you'd just ride off into the sunset...and find people your own age to hang out with...

Sure, Of Course...

Today in lickspittlery.

Former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas drew a swift and intense response with a provocative claim on Tuesday: President Trump, he wrote, is similar to Winston Churchill, one of history’s most iconic leaders.

After all, it's hardly a stretch from "we shall fight them on the beaches...we shall never surrender" to "when you're a star, they let you do anything," right?

Boxing Day!

Only comes once a year...hope you're having a good one.

Back tomorrow.

Good Rule To Remember

Don't lie when there's video evidence.

Have a good weekend.

Probably won't post on Monday...

Only Losers Pay Taxes

And Trump's not a loser, amirite?

Time For Another War On Christmas Yet?

Haven't been paying attention, beyond the idiot tax cut...otherwise, busy today, back tomorrow...

There, Fixed It

The Trump automaton at Disney World was missing its remote operator...

Juice Box Hero

Or Sippy Cup Superman, take your pick.

Every goddamned day...

Oh Look, They've Got The Tax Bill Ready...

Have a good weekend.

Elections Have Consequences

Fuck. Yeah, we still have Congress or the courts, but...great job, idiots who voted for the guy...

Welcome To The Modern World, Alabama

I'll be the first to admit, one of my worst efforts...sometimes things just don't work out. Was trying to merge Jefferson Davis' inauguration with a modern shot. Oh well.

Things obviously worked out much better with the election, and Roy Moore will have plenty of time to spend with his children. Or any children...so, kids and teens, watch out. He's a creep.

Back tomorrow...

Hard To Believe

But they at least matched if not outdid PGOTUS. Don't think I need any links, will be watching the returns like everyone else...

The Yolk Of Authoritarianism

Yep, they actually said that. Not just evil, but also...pretty stupid...

Friday

Can only take credit for the photo, not the construction...snow day here. Brr...

Have a good weekend.

Another Reaction To Yesterday's Announcement

Won't bother with a link, sure you can find one or more if you're stopping here. But..yeah, facepalm.

And more and more Trump resembles Warren Harding, though if I remember right, Harding at least knew he was in over his head...

Hmmm...

Nah, I don't think it's cheap dentures...maybe a bridge, but...more inclined to think it's just an old man starting to get worn down. Even being pretend president takes more effort than he's used to. And dumb announcements like today's will only go so far to reinvigorate...

Follow The Money

And I'll bet it leads to a wholesale Trump laundromat.

Twenty Years Go By In The Blink Of An Eye

I'm sure it's all just a blur to Sessions, back when he thought obstruction of justice was an impeachable offense...

Total Amateur Hour

Will skip links, am a bit busy here this evening, but browse around and you'll see the "bill" they're trying to pawn off is clown show central. They'd be better off saying the dog ate it.

And these are the supposedly fiscally responsible ones. Gawd.

Have a good weekend.

Persona Non Grata

Kind of ironic...a country where there's a wall, English is a primary language...and pretty much universal agreement that bigot Trump should stay the hell out.

Getting Away With It

Enough Alabamans are ok with Roy Moore, apparently...

Not Exactly Vitruvian Man

Posted mostly because I've got nothing else, it's been a long day...and the news is, well, depressing enough to hopefully generate a laugh or two with this...

Yeah, For Real

Today's embarrassment. And, weird, but in a way, fitting. Donald Trump did not "become President" today, but he did demonstrate how utterly Trump he is. Cloddish, boorish, obviously stupid, casually demeaning, tone-deaf...and his base loves it.

Three more years.

Happy Thanksgiving

Have a good weekend.

Next He'll Be Tweeting Weather Forecasts

Sigh.

Have a good holiday. Might post something over the next few days, might not.

Will definitely be back Monday.

Net Neutrality -- Nice While It Lasted

Sure, Trump himself is an idiot, but some of his appointees can really fuck things up for the rest of us. Way to go, wingers...

Just Stating The Obvious

National Security Adviser McMaster confirms there's not a whole lot upstairs...

Bubble Ready to Burst?

We'll see.

Have a good weekend.

Just A Little Oil Leak...Nothing Serious

Five thousand barrels...

Oh Look, It's Money Poor People Use

I get the feeling you could go way, way back -- even back before Occupy Wall Street-- before finding Steve Mnuchin and/or his wife carrying single dollar bills.

Also, too.

Like Senior, Like Junior

Turns out Don Junior is more than a little light in the brains department, too.

So, Has He Read Any Good Books Lately?

Nah, probably more of a movie guy. And a 30 plus year old mall rat.

The GOP Brand

Charles Pierce points out it's a feature, not a bug.

Have a good weekend.

Roy

Allegedly--he likes them young. Ew...

Hey, Imagine That

Voters, well, sane ones, don't much like the clown president who regularly embarrasses us and pretty much the entire country, while playing to his crazy base.

And his base IS crazy...racist, too. Just saying.

To Be Clear

Let's keep in mind what's actually being worshipped by the gun nut reaction to a nut with a gun -- and it's not the Prince of Peace...

A Tale Of Two Amendments

One of these can cost you your livelihood...the other results in heartfelt prayer...until the next time.

Science

It doesn't give a shit about politics. And it's saying things are heating up. Aside from the new normal of multiple catastrophic hurricanes per season, take a look at one of the photos in the article. It's a digital clock and thermometer in Phoenix. 122F at 6:37. And whether it's 6:37 in the morning or evening...that's...

Have a good weekend.

Because Jeb! Had Already Been Taken?

That or maybe because New Coke was...and remember, he claims branding/marketing is his strong suit.

Halloween's Over

And would be nice if he'd just fade away like a rotting pumpkin.

Back tomorrow.

Old Reliable

Can always count on Hannity to haul wingnut water...

I Still Think It's "Trump Laundromat"

So Manafort and Gates are the first indictments for those playing Trump Bingo; Papadropoulos was the first guilty plea...and I'm sure anyone stopping by knows all that already. So won't bother with any links, just a reminder that the change machine pictured above turns rubles into more usable funds...at least until the feds put a stop to it...

Back tomorrow.

The Giveaway

Sigh. Wingnut myths never die.

Have a good weekend.

Not Like Everyone Says...Like Dumb

Fredo's intellect, Sonny's temperament. What could go wrong?

Just Kind Of Sad And Pathetic

Christ, Elvis in Vegas had more class...for that matter Wayne Newton in Branson might count as dignified in comparison.

Like a washed up act looking for a last payday, the decrepit corpse that is the modern GOP is ... launching another Hillary Clinton investigation.

Just as bad, their die hard base will eat it up and pronounce it delicious...

You're Saying He Might Not Be "Presidential?"

He's certainly the leader of the party...which should give us some indication of where the party's gone after a generation or so of undiluted rhetorical bullshit.

Even By Twit Standards...

He stands out...

El Caudillo

Have a good weekend.

Shorter John Kelly

Donald Trump is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
