Sure thing Hoss.

Ignorant or a liar, which am I?

 

[Greenman]

Don't call Greenman a Nazi or Nazi adjacent, or he might vote for more Nazis because you hurt his feelings.

I'm not the one with terminal but hurt.

Ignorant or a liar, which am I?

I'd say both.

This isn't a bungle, it's a coordinated effort to remake the US government that's about four decades in the making.

You're out of your depth.

Your problem is you think he has any depth. Depth would imply some actual level of integrity. He literally has zero integrity, honesty, or decency left. Pieces of shit like him are not out of their depth they're just pieces of shit.

As a Republican I'm up in arms too. This will probably be blocked. The president is required to spend money as voted on by Congress.

So who is left to stop him?

I noticed you skipped over my first question to you, so I'll repeat it: Care to chime in why illegal and unconstitutional impoundment is a Good Thing™?

Judge in DC Circuit already blocked it. Now it gets dicey.

 

[akenbennu]

We are in the finding out stage. Congratu-fucking-lations to the dipshit conservatives who voted for this. You are reaping what you sowed.

Sadly it is also dragging the rest of us along with the mess.

Time for another Greenman classic maneuver!

 

[[DHT]Osiris]

I'd say both.

I'd say 'watch Trump and find out' but I suspect you won't examine his actions with the depth required to understand what is happening at any point, even when it affects you.

Canning people he doesn’t have the right to fire. Only a matter of time he says he can remove judges.

Called blatantly unconstitutional, blue states plan to sue to block this order.

We do need to trim the fat but doing it this way is confusing and chaotic for all states.


Edit:

Move now stayed (stopped) by judge...

Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration freeze on federal grants and loans

A federal judge has temporarily blocked a push from President Donald Trump to pause federal funding while his administration conducts an across-the-board ideological review to uproot progressive initiatives.

Well there goes another judge being placed in Trump's enemies list. I wonder how long it'll take for that judge to feel the childish spiteful wrath of Herr Reichsmarschall Trump. Trump should send Elon there and simply buy off that judge like the conservative ones were bought off in the Supreme Court.

The idea isn't all that bad, the implementation is world class stupid. Major bungle by Trump.

Great idea to deprive Head Start of funding for 90 days.

Attack the poor give to the rich

ah yeah, this is why you fled to fucking Mississippi, obviously. the complete lack of butt hurt in your previous, miserable life.

This is also why you block people like me. Your complete lack of butt hurt is maintained by avoiding people telling you exactly what you are. Must be convenient.

At least threats from his brownshirts.
