America under Trump - Year One: January 2017 to ... January 2017

then fire a tshirt cannon into a crowd of screaming staffers

loser gets guillotined on live tv

Haven't we already determined that Trump generally needs or wears glasses when the cameras are not on? Maybe he could not see Rudy. Equally troubling at least is what appears to be him mistaking the person next to g him for Rudy.

Maybe bad vision is why he is afraid of stairs!

Even Vince McMahon would have more taste and decorum in this situation

trump has actually been suffering from diabetic blindness since 1997

And the totally accurate inauguration crowd estimation.

we're through the looking-glass here people

(which ironically trump has not been able to use since 1997)

i thought this, by sam kriss, about the inauguration and women's march, was really good:

(if u don't want to rehash the events of 10 days ago, i get it)

(also i have no idea what 'theoutline' is and can't easily find out more about it)

It's Joshua Topolsky's new site he made after getting canned from Bloomberg

What it definitely is is the most annoyingly-designed site ever. Jesus.

yes it's a bit over-herd-y if u get me

Speaking of which, we could use a new thread here before the gravity sucks this one down. Anyone want the honour?

wait till tomorrow

It'd wipe that fuckin' Disney right off the air!

awww he cancelled his Milwaukee visit guess I won't have to go protest :/

@chronicle
News: Jerry Falwell Jr. will lead a federal task force on higher-ed policy, he said Tuesday: chroni.cl/2jsbRcZ

this is fine

Well, he's schooled in telling fags and pregnant women to fuck off.

his conclusions will somehow be that the USA needs more federally funded religious for profit colleges, no doubt

Done!

He was offered Secretary Of Education iirc and said no.

from Wikipedia:

In January 2017, Falwell was appointed by President Trump to chair a taskforce on reforms for the United States Department of Education.[10]. This further illustrated what a joke the United States has become.

lol @ Christie slagging off Trump's aides. "Please godfather, gimme one more chance!"

new series, no Efrem Zimbalist Jr

kinda sad how either of these dudes are exponentially better picks than harriet fuckin miers

Responding to Democratic filibuster warnings, Republican Sen. Bob Corker, of Tennessee quipped, "I've never heard of people filibustering someone before they know who it is. I mean it could be Merrick Garland."

uhh....

it could be Barack Obama

it could be the Iron Sheik

Ignore this, guys. Don't tweet about it, don't post about it. It IS a distraction. Deprive him.

(I know, I know. People hate to hear that.)

the SC nominee is a distraction?

How the SC nominee is being rolled out, specifically.

On rollerskates?

Ladies and gentlemen...

I'm hoping this one would stall in the senate, right? But then Trump would just make it an EO

yeah Republicans are in kind of a shitty spot. I'm sure a lot of them want to speak up (and privately I would imagine nearly all of them think he's absolutely nuts) but being one of the first to do so is a big risk

They were in a good spot to denounce him three months ago when he could have been defeated. It is insane that these people think they won the presidency. Trump has never shown anything but contempt for the congressional Republicans.

I hope they are happy with frog nazi Bannon as the de facto president.

They deserve all the ignominy they get once this charade falls apart. Hopefully it comes sooner rather than later.

nothing about the SCOTUS rollout is a distraction. this is what it's all about

one thing that would be funny would be if the media scooped trump'a pick and he got mad and changed to the (slightly) more acceptable guy

the charade's going to fall apart? When?
