Trump, July 2017: Tweet more

From the linked story:

President Trump and his advisers are privately discussing the possibility of replacing Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and some confidants are floating prospects who could take his place were he to resign or be fired, according to people familiar with the talks.

Members of Trump’s circle, including White House officials, have increasingly raised the question among themselves in recent days as the president has continued to vent his frustration with the attorney general, the people said.

sweet. Jeff is bad, bad news, and his humiliation cannot come soon enough.

idk that giuliani is any better

or TED FUCKIN CRUZ who is also mentioned as a possibility

Cruz or any other senator would look at what happened to Sessions over these past few months and go "Yeah, think I'll stick with my seat, thanks."

lol @ trump getting madder watching himself criticize sessions...i feel like his whole ability to handle crisis is like

I am grateful that we've all let go of the notion of John McCain as anything less than a scumbag now

It'll take more than cancer to finish off the toughest man in D.C. Give 'em hell(ish health care and skyrocketing personal debt), John.

maybe he'll eat it first

Goddammit

I assume something passes tomorrow at this point. What it will be who the fuck knows

I mean, if they're bringing McCain back, McConnell *has* to have Dean Heller's vote on the motion to proceed in his back pocket, right?

You know what this healthcare bullshit reminds me of? The scene in Texas Chainsaw Massacre where they hold the girl down while lifting the grandfather's arm up so he can hit her in the head with a hammer because he's too fucking weak to do it himself.

Is something coming to a vote tomorrow?

yes, an old man with brain cancer

*John McCain sucks at flying planes in a war where he was fighting on the wrong side*

eh, that's not a good critique of mccain

Colonel McCovfefeign

better critique: fuck john mccain

John McCain is one of the bravest fighters I've ever known. Basic access to health care doesn't know what it's up against. Give it hell John

that's a good critique of john mccain

I mean it would be FUNNY if he came back and voted no and then instantly died

lol

Trump still seems to think that Amazon doesn't pay sales tax...

xxp it would be better if he died before he could vote.

President apparently confirming existence of US covert program to aid anti-Assad rebels in Syria right here on Twitter https://t.co/NQy1BqLAkB

I dont know how this is a secret? Everyone knows this shit..?

I guess this is the answer.. Sorry yall Im working til midnight tonight so I will be aggressively updating this thread with responses to my own posts.

This is a classified program. This acknowledgement is a good lever for FOIA'ing material about it from the CIA. They can't "Glomar" it now. https://t.co/S1Is1ClMJ6

Priorities.

Does any Cabinet secretary have the decency & nerve to invite Jeff Sessions to lunch tomorrow in a restaurant & let the media know about it?

— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) July 25, 2017

I'd prefer everyone in DC start pitying Jeff Sessions and treating him humanely after he loses all chance at influencing public policy from now until he dies.

I would like a cabinet member to take lil Jeffy to lunch because he got all of his assets seized by the local PD because of the forfeiture law he loves so much

a-a-and it's gotta be a NICE restaurant. with PLATES

Trump, however, was clearly upset that Tillerson told him he had no choice but to certify Iran was in compliance, according to the source, and asked White House staffers to take over. Withholding certification “wasn’t a real option available to me,” Trump reportedly told the staffers. “Make sure that’s not the case 90 days from now.”

Trump may still choose to certify Iran’s compliance at the next deadline, a source said, but he does not want to be in the position of where he was this week, when he was told that he had to certify because no other option was made available.

“He may not decertify, though I think he will,” the source said. “But he wants to make sure he never, ever, ever hears again that he can’t do it.”

please god, sweaty armpitted computer programmer, please let this crew of cronies leave the stage before we start a world war

I guess if Barron wanted attention he should've become a boy scout.

Guys....

He's tweeting again.

boy is he ever

i guess it's all but certain now that sessions is soon going to get exiled to the phantom zone

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes (where are E-mails & DNC server) & Intel leakers!

How on earth can Sessions not resign now. I mean, talk about losing the confidence of your boss

I mean... fuck Sessions but now I kinda want to see this play out.

Trump's presidency needs to end, either through impeachment or the 25th. I don't know if it's in the long term interests of Democrats to oust him but his bizarre judgment is frightening. Publicly attacking his own AG makes no sense strategically, it's just a way for Trump to blow off steam with no thought to consequences.

He's crazy.

I would say that doing this on the eve of the health care vote lends credibility to the 'diversion tactic' thesis, but if he just wanted to do something to take focus from health care, why choose this? Who on earth is going to want to take over from Sessions now? And what does he think will happen at the Chris Wray confirmation hearing?

What a guy! (There's a great Barron-related tweet too.) Unprecedented in my lifetime, I think. It's basically George Steinbrenner as president.

He's crazy. suffering from dementia

He's crazy. suffering from dementia a narcissistic moron
