Trump, August 2017: A great day at the White House!

the whole concept of alpha humans is so laughably stupid. you have alphas among animals that travel in packs. outside of that specific system to think of an "alpha" is just to say "I have a crush on the concept of power"

yeah it's incredibly spurious and not even true for animals, probably one of the most toxic concepts in the world right now

OL otm. i think about guys who preoccupy themselves with "alpha"-ness, male masculinity, etc and they're just the most pathetic try-hards.

obv this is mostly from online personalities. i can't say i know anyone irl who's openly like this

My t is the lowest of all the t's.

&c &c on t's

i am the Omega Man

My t is the lowest of all the t's.

"Hmm, I am going to have to think about whether or not that is something to brag about."

personally I try to model all my personal and business dealings on alpha, the ultimate mutant

I eat Alpha Bits for breakfast.

This WaPo story is thankfully blowing all the way up, it seems. Trump's the dude who abruptly turns the getaway car around so he can tell the police that he and his masked companions definitely had nothing to do with that bank robbery. Just a perpetual series of needless self-owns with this guy. Again, I have approximately zero understanding of how this ludicrous dope didn't wind up homeless or dead long before he bumblefucked his way into the presidency.

being born rich has some benefits iirc

FoxNews is all over it! "HEAT’S ON DEBBIE: Wasserman Schultz facing mounting pressure to testify in IT investigation" oh wai

subheader: "BIAS ALERT: Liberal news outlets work overtime to hide a huge Democratic scandal"

It takes a lot of work to not report this stuff

NICE DAY OUTSIDE: Extremely pleasant weather, picnicking a near certainty, nothing else really happening at the moment.

LA LA LA: Can't hear you, not listening.

nonsense all of you, he's a picture of health

tbf most of Fox's subheaders are horrible tragedy/crime reporting - mother finds son dead in car wreck, grandma guns down intruder, paroled rapist murders dog etc

the world is a bad and scary place and we need harsh legislation to keep us afloat

also all the crime-doers are on public assistance

8. Business cards arrive today

who's the next head to roll? my money's on Tillerson. I agree with the folks upthread about Trump's (VERY relative) deference to military men, and while he's antagonized the living hell out of Sessions I'm not sure he'll actually fire him because it seems like that really might piss off GOP senators enough to do something more than express "concerns." so I think that leaves Tilly with the biggest bullseye.

xpost Good thing we live in a world where folks like him render themselves unemployable and cannot possibly find a way to capitalize on their failure.

paroled rapist murders dog etc

What's great is FOX can repurpose it with any permutation of these words!

paroled murderer rapes dog

dog murders paroled rapist

etc.

real news!

I don't think Trump will fire Tillerson but he doesn't seem like a happy dude and he never wanted the job in the first place, can totally see him quitting before the year is out

at this point the line between firing and resigning is razor-thin anyway.

Wasn't one of the putative reasons Tillerson took the job to help ease Russian oil sanctions? Yeah...

c'mon that was just a conspiracy theory!

if things don't improve with kelly, tillerson will go imo. and...

Important point by @jonathanvswan - Kelly as the redline...he has all the ingredients necessary for success....https://t.co/eRSTz2EWQR pic.twitter.com/ww5IwJLnCn

Can't find a single person who worked on campaign or in WH who believes this chain of command following lasts long https://t.co/iTAoTSfeVk

"Javanka" = ew

Even in the offchance that Trump accidentally engineered a well-oiled administration, he would inevitably wreck it and insist that the oil could be even more viscous.

he would insist on using his hair oil

It's all-natural. The secret? He never washes it.

Re that Wheeler/Fox lawsuit and all

On the phone with Ed Butowsky, he tells me he suspended his own Twitter account temporarily because "people are so mean."

seems like something he would do

Huckleberry still gravely concerned, also troubled, maybe even disappointed

this seth rich story seems like it's one of the most despicable things trump has done since announcing his candidacy.

that's the shit i was afraid of when he picked bannon to be chief strategist

every single day is the best day at the White House

was melania really replaced by a Melania android?

the correct term is Melandroid

There are actual several Melanias, depending on the purpose.

Like, Nanny Melania, First Lady Melania, and so on. The only real one is the sad Melania.

and you can detach the arms for different events - some of the arms don't fit well into small man hands

together they constitute a Melangia

haaaaaa

Re: that Sessions statement.

Give this administration an Inch and they will take a Milo.

many xps, but my wife and I were just talking about this yesterday, how it's a dumb idea with literally no relation to how human beings operate. We're social animals, and we build complex systems that mostly rely on cooperation and mutual support, not on just listening to what the guy in charge says. And actual places with strongman rule are the worst-run least prosperous places on the planet. To approach the world as if everyone is either superior to you (and therefore you must defeat them) or inferior to you (and therefore you must grind them with your bootheel) is guaranteed to fail.

What you say is at odds with my narcissism, so you are wrong.

Does being fired or resigning from the current White House staff look better on a resumé?

If you're fired does it mean you have more visible ethics?
& resigning more out for yourself?

IIRC, either one is viable for use as a Fox pundit golden ticket.
