As far as SharpieGate goes Butteigeig was right at some point here Trump’s behavior has just crossed over into sad and pathetic.

I just hope this pathetic administration isn't a portent into the total disintegration of the "union." At this point you can color me disillusioned. But I'm still hopeful... not the right word, but "hope springs eternal" ... until the final whimper, I guess.

I mean I guess we will see but my gut tells me the average person is just tired of this shit. If I were the Democrats I would be testing a slogan something like ‘haven’t you had enough?’ for the general election.

Well you can't prosecute a sitting president so I guess add to the list for when he loses in 2020.

Does the hurricane sitting off from the shore help keep its strength longer?
Can't sue a sitting President but can we sue the guy sitting next to him as a party to the crime?

Butt-Hurt Trump just can't let it go:

Said by Sharpie Artist in Chief - "Alabama was going to be hit or grazed, and then Hurricane Dorian took a different path (up along the East Coast). The Fake News knows this very well. That’s why they’re the Fake News!"

I'm sure Trump just can't wait for Alabama to get hit by a hurricane, any hurricane. It'll be happy feet time for this Nutjob.

Yes, but remember, 50% of the population is on the dumber side of that average person.

How much time has he spent arguing with the world over this? What is wrong with him? (rhetorical question)

Does this village idiot not realize a sharpie-modified NOAA chart is going to make him the laughingstock (yet again). Moreover, his Alabama comment came AFTER the plot had been changed to possibly make landfall striping the FL coast, not plunge into it.




It doesn’t matter to him. He’s always right. The true sign of a hardcore narcissist. He will never admit he was wrong.

Will the same person who replaced the presidential seal at his speech be blamed for using the sharpie on his weather map? :p

Yeah. I had the epiphany the other day:

The Democratic Party (AKA The Democrats!) would IMO do well to select a candidate from a red state, preferably near the geographical center of America, a person with solid connections to their values and experiences. Then the New Yorker real estate developer capitalist opportunist would have a much tougher time trying to paint himself as their champion in comparison.

The President of the US deliberately falsifying an official report that affects the safety of millions of people... all because he didn't want to admit that he misspoke about something and then continued to make that same mistake despite being corrected over and over again. That's like me mixing up the names of my kids in the middle of a sentence and when my wife points it out I tell her she's wrong and start forging their passports to match my error.

This is normal behavior for the Republican party. Tens of millions of people will still vote for this kind of incompetence, dishonesty and complete lack of responsibility.

Well, dishonesty, incompetence, and lack of responsibility are the primary rungs in the GOP platform.

Doesn't matter. Red state voters are single issue voters. Guns, babies, and fuck the libs. Dems need candidates that get black voters to the voting booth, as well as suburban women and younger voters. That's their tent. Forget about corn husking whitey mcwiterson in bumfuck nebraska and south dakota. That ship done set sail.

You just described Biden (Pennsylvania is practically a red state), Klobuchar and Warren (who grew up poor in Oklahoma.) So yeah, we've got 3 of them. Hell, we've got 5 if you include Buttigieg and Beto, and I only left them off because they have less experience.

The first 2 aren't real principles---they mainly oppose gun control and abortion in order to f**k the libs. If the libs didn't care about abortion and gun control, Roe v. Wade would go unchallenged and we'd have universal background checks and magazine restrictions already.

He subscribes to the Nazi propagandist in chief, Herman Goebbels, dictum, say a lie enough times and people will believe it. He'll hurl that "fake news" shit at the wall until it sticks. Many people will be imprinted with that notion by election time and will be led by the nose to the voting booth knowing no better than to vote for the creep.
