Trump also had the wrinkly orange balls to declare that there was no chaos in his administration, at almost the same time as outlets we're breaking the Moochster's demise.

I feel like Scaramucci was this administration's Dr. Rockzo.

OH YEAHH I DO COCAINE


Edit: it should also be noted that Scaramucci's official start date as WH Communications Director wasn't until August 15th. He managed to get fired before he started. We're entering Douche-ception territory here.

Don't worry, Trump is sending his best armada. Yuuuge armada. The submarines? With the things? So powerful. So powerful. Am I right?

Aaaand with that, I'm glad I live on the East Coast.

Have you noticed how their new ICBM has a range that specifically exclude Florida and much of the South? I guess NK wouldn't want to risk improving the place by mistake. :p
That's how the South will Rise Again.

And yes, I know the normal metaphor is 'poke the bear/other dangerous carnivore'. Though a vividly hallucinating and chaotically lashing out bear would be even more dangerous.

Anyways, uhoh, the NK situation is now definetly going to escalate. Doesn't help that the WH is distracted by everything and the state department is pretty much gutted.

Why should it escalate now specifically? NK has been testing missiles every other week since the beginning of the year.

Because Trump? *shrug*
^^^^^^

Trump doesn't grok "incremental response". I could very well see him ordering a nuclear strike on Pyongyang. I could also very well see the military chain of command refusing that order, absent an imminent attack from NK.

yea, id like to.


i knew to expect bad scifi, but this is comically bad.  the issue is they didn't have to do it.


the president of the shield corp is whats his nuts from 'scrubs', right?
Holy ballturds, you're right, it's John McGinley. I neer realized that (and I can claim to be one of those people that paid money to see that steaming pile in the theater).

....I also paid money to see Highlander III in the theater. Sometimes it takes me more than one mistake to learn. >_>

You know, I've realized that I don't think I've ever seen a positive romantic relationship in reality. Fiction, oh yeah, that makes it easy. But literally every couple I've ever known was a fucking wreck either openly or behind the scenes.

People say I'm the weirdo for not getting involved in this stuff, but I gotta say, I feel like a serious bullet-dodger these days. Is it even possible for two people to be reasonable when they're beyond friendship?
I like to think I'm in a positive romantic relationship. Five years and counting now.

Right. Now that Priebus is out, when the leaks don't stop (and they won't, because every member of this administration is self-serving enough to dish out the dirt when it suits them, in an attempt to better their own position) then he'll have to name *another* leaker. This has the potential to turn into some Reign of Terror shit, with former allies denouncing each other and throwing one another to the figurative guillotine. Wouldn't be surprised if Scaradouche has own head on the chopping block by the end of the year.

Not to mention, Trump himself is a pretty damn good source of leaks.


Meanwhile: North Korea has decided that now is a good time to poke the bear.

Unlike McCarthy's Communist infiltrators, we can say with absolute certainty that someone (or more likely many someones) is leaking all kinds of things out of the White House - what with all this information being leaked out of the White House. The administration being unhappy about that isn't exactly a surprise.
Admittedly, there are probably a LOT of leakers in the WH these days. Can you imagine being a low-level staffer in this clusterfuck?
Every day is "Holy shit, you won't believe what <insert name here> just said!"
And as the factionalism intensifies, each faction is gonna spill the beans on the others. It's a beautiful thing.

But hey, the Mooch is in town now, and he's gonna clean this shit up, alright? He's going to fucking kill all the leakers, and then watch Bannon suck his own cock.

The good thing is, all the Dem candidate in 2020 has to do is go, "Really? Do you REALLY want another four years of this?" They don't even have to have a platform.

I'm trying to dig into whether a WH Chief of Staff has ever come from the ranks of the military. It seems like....not a natural fit.

EDIT: Ah. Right. Nixon made Gen. Alexander Haig his chief of staff....because his first chief of staff, H. R. Haldeman, was under investigation as part of Watergate. I'm sure the Watergate thing is just a coincidence, the 432nd in a completely random chain of coincidences....

My guess would be your new Director Homeland Security, Sergey Kislyak. After all, he's already familiar with much of the administration, Washington, and the United States' military and intelligence capabilities.

It dawned on me -- picking a guy who has indications of having Tourette's Syndrome as your fucking communications director might be the most Trumpian thing imaginable.

"Can you explain the WH's strategy with this latest move?"
"Well, it's very simple. The President shitcocktitlickerdouchefuckass. Why don't you guys ever talk about that, huh??"

When Obamacare faces its darkest hour, the Senator-under-the-Mesa shall arise from his eternal slumber to strike down its foes with his fabled vote.

Senate Speaker: Bueller, Murkowski, McCain, Paul, Ringo...
McCain: Eyyy, someone tell that fucker to shut up.
Sensate Speaker: Ah, you ready to pass this shit J-Dawg?
McCain: *mic drop, 360 turn, moonwalk away*

What a tweest, the session of voting and discussion which was able to start because of McCain was killed by none other than... *pulls the mask off* JOHN MCCAIN?!?!?!

...and he woulda gotten away with it too if not for those meddling... uh... himselves?
I like to think that was just his dying "FUCK YOU" to the GOP's mouldering undead corpse.

From a tactical standpoint, it was the ultimate troll. It should (unless I'm missing some arcane backdoor option), kill their chances to do this with a budget reconciliation bill for at least another year. They can try it again next year, but it'll be in an election year and that should harden the moderates against killing it.

Breitbart and Infowars have essentially called a fatwa on John McCain and want to have him declared medically unfit and his vote annulled retroactively (lol).

The tears of butthurt Pepes are like delicious Chardonnay.
