Brood of vipers. At least maybe they will stay busy attacking themselves.

All this reminds me of the USSR just before and just after Nikita Kruschev. The workings inside the Kremlin were mostly secret and very difficult for western observers to understand and predict. Party insiders fought with each other for dominance and the victors often didn't last long.

Priebus was RNC chair and the RNC wasn't fond of Trump since he wasn't really a Republican, long time Democrat and really more of an independent. Trump was loaded up with RNC people and it's not all that surprising that, being a bull in a china shop, that wasn't going to work for him. He was hired to disrupt politics as we knew it. He's doing what he was hired to do. We'll see how it turns out but this probably isn't over by a long shot.

Did I see it here or somewhere else? It's like Team of Rivals, only for morons.

Maybe in a nutty way Trump's insanity is actually going to encourage bipartisanship in Washington. All Democrats and a lot of Republicans hate him so much they actually have some common ground for the first time.
Kelly is probably Trumpster's last hope.
It's like an addicting mini series. I check Fox and CNN four or five times a day. I hate myself for it but damn, I'm hooked.

As David Broder observed in an NPR interview today (I am paraphrasing here): Heaven help us if a foreign policy crisis occurs with this administration.

This administration is like a cross between Game of Thrones, Yes, Minister and Being There.

He's running the country like he ran his businesses. Isn't that what everyone wanted, I mean, shit, the man knows what he's doing!
But Obama was so much worse, terrible man.

But Obama was so much worse, terrible man. 2nd quarter GDP growth of 2.6%.I'm sure you probably missed it given the media's penchant for honest reporting. He's well on his way to obliterating that incompetent f**k's existence. And good riddance. |

I don't believe so, but I'm fine with someone disagreeing. But it chafes my posterior to read imbecilic profanity used to degrade so casually. Like graffiti on a bathroom wall. Harshes the mellow I acquired by listening to Bowlin and Waring. |

He's well on his way to obliterating that incompetent f**k's existence. And good riddance. Said growth having nothing to do with the previous 8 years? Which, despite inherting a pile of crap from the previous administration, ended up with a growing economy, a fully recovered stock market, low unemployment? I'm not sure what was so incompetent, Peter, and I don't understand the visceral hate. In any comparison as a man, including how he treats women, how he treats the people he works for him, how he treated the democratic process, as opposed to someone who lashes out at everyone and everything that disagrees with him, undermines the court system by being contemptuous of it and the people who run it, Barack Obama was a man to be admired, compared to the whining child who is now running the show. Donald Trump held and holds all the aces; he does not need to stick public knives into everyone that disagrees with him, does not need to rant about politics to the boy scouts. Him and the GOP could have had the world, could have come up with an agenda that could have worked. At the moment, it looks like they are going to piss away 4 years of absolute power because they have an asinine dickhead leading them, and they are so badly fractured within their own ranks, they can't even agree on what they should begin to agree about. |

No, it has nothing whatsoever to do with the last 8 years. Barry was the first President to never see 3% GDP growth. And he had 2 terms to try. And whatever he inherited, he also presided over one of the slowest recovery's ever. The things that caused the stock market recovery and lower unemployment had nothing to do with a good economy since there never was one under Obummer. And Trump doesn't have all the aces like Obama did. He still has to deal with the filibuster. Obama passed Obamacare (and virtually nothing else) without a single Republican vote. Because he didn't need it. And despite that advantage his narcissism prevented him from doing anything substantive legislatively for 7 years. Sorry, Obama's incompetence built the market for Trump. And his push to the left taught Trump all the tricks that make it go. And now the Dumbocrats get to helplessly watch him roll. |
