US Politics January 2018: "You All Just Got A Lot Richer"

wowowow

Force-choke Trump with coke.

this white house had a lot of coffee boys didn't it?

i mean none of these people did anything , it was just Trump and his huge brain making it all happen

i'm still incredulous that there isn't anyone in the approval chain who just says "no"/gets fired over balls-out-bonkers statements like this one

whatever the truth, high five to Wolff for eliciting that response

Lol at that statement. Btw, they definitely called Trump for comments yesterday, and that's why he ranted even more than usual.

i wonder if anyone's still editing these statements? that last one seemed to be directly from trump.

bannon has openly speculated about running for office himself iirc.

xpost whoops big hoos made the same point! crazy.

that + whatever he knows makes him dangerous, but probably this is kabuki to drive breitbart page impressions and to feed trump's ego. he'll be back in with trump soon.

My god.

Breitbart commenter: "This is just two alpha-males, going at it."

— Will Sommer (@willsommer) January 3, 2018

Wow, Just looked at the comments section on Breitbart. Wow. When Bannon has lost Breitbart, he’s left with . . . umm, nothing.

brief description on an xtube video too iirc

where is the Mooch when we need him most ?

definitely not face-down in a giant pile of cocaine iirc

definitely not trying to suck his own cock

I said what I said in the Summer take out the expletives and pay closer attention. Btw, @realDonaldTrump is doing a great job.

— Anthony Scaramucci (@Scaramucci) January 3, 2018

lol

the mooch abides

I'm absolutely certain this point has been made before, but Trump legitimately sees no difference between being POTUS and being a WWE heel, does he.

unfortunately, none of this matters

Oh the pettiness of it all is the key.

Well, when he was participating in pro wrestling he was the most important and interesting person in the world. Now he is President and he is the most important and interesting person in the world. So really the two jobs are the same, and demand the same skills.

i wonder if anyone's still editing these statements? that last one seemed to be directly from trump.

Trump cannot compose short, coherent sentences like that.

no shit but dont try and take this away from us with reason alfred

correct use of "whom" is a real giveaway too

i'm not listening to it to check but...

Trump’s comments about Bannon today are almost word for word what @benshapiro said about Bannon on @Jamie_Weinstein’s podcast last week.

— Matt Lewis (@mattklewis) January 3, 2018

I mean the practical effect is it fractures a perceived unified front where 'the GOP' as defined downplays or actively rails against claims of collusion, Mueller's work etc. Now someone who was working with Trump out and in of the White House for a year is one record as saying 'nah, something's there.' There's already a rapid closing of ranks in response but even so -- and, as I've thought about more and more this morning, it's...interesting that Bannon seems terribly unworried about this probe, which theoretically could affect him. Makes me wonder a bit -- saw a claim earlier that he's been mentioned nowhere in Mueller's team's public interview schedule. By now you'd think they would have talked to him, and maybe they have...

It certainly will make the Nunes and Meadows types in the House to think twice about criticizing Mueller. After all, they had their eye firmly on a base besotted with Bannon/Breitbart.

where's the tax returns?

I lol'd hard at Bannon's comment (from the book I think) that he wont testify, wont get a lawyer. Yeah I dont think you have a choice in the matter my dude.

If Bannon loses his followers it could mean a lot for senate primaries.

Trump condensed:

My senior policy advisor? I had nothing to do with him.
My campaign chairman? Only with me for a short time.
My national security advisor? A liar.
My foreign policy advisor? He was just a coffee boy.

Don Jr? Um ... fake news!

Andrew Breitbart would be ashamed of the division and lies Steve Bannon is spreading!

ya his PAC planning to boost little trumps & moore-likes in primaries has been one of the more frightening developments for me out of all this & if the redhats divide over this i'll breathe a sigh of relief

xpost Okay, that one's flat-out hilarious. And 'ashamed'! A concept about which no one involved or named has any understanding!

denial ain't just a river of grievances

i do sometimes wonder what the cultural landscape of the us would be like if andrew beetbort hadn’t been assassinated by the deep state killed by an insatiable appetite for cocaine and fistfuls of lard

basically identical imo

yeah prolly :(

actually, it would be a little worse, since andrew breitbart would still be alive

guys come on I'm still poring over the Fusion GPS story

I mean, there's a reason Mitch McConnell is jubilant, and I'm guessing the DNC is slightly disappointed. The road to a blue senate probably got a bit harder. But Trumpism died a while back, and if Bannonism goes as well, the worst might be over. Time to sit down, make the plan to do single payer as quickly as possible in 21.

andrew beetbort lives on in the artery-hardened hearts of a nation

Something tells me this isn't going to work out well for Manafort
