Trump Defenders: He Doesn’t Hate the Troops, He’s Just ‘an Asshole’

Yes, his allies admit, Trump routinely makes callous comments about U.S. military personnel. But it’s because he hates the wars they’re forced to fight, not the troops themselves.

Subtext: You see, if those brown foreigners sitting on pots of oil didn’t Force the USA to invade and murder a million of their citizens on false pretenses, American soldiers wouldn’t have to die at their filthy, uncivilized hands.

Pimp shoes.

Also, the supposed "owner" of the destroyed building that Trump met with hasn't been the owner for 8 years. The current owner of the building refused to appear with Trump.

If it is the building I'm thinking you are referring to, it's only the business that doesn't belong to the former owner, the property still does.

Great to see you back again, WolfEyes!

Great to see you back again, WolfEyes!

I haven't decided yet. See my post in the Community Nobody Cares thread.

Thank you though.

Trump is (finally, after dozens of scandals, and hundreds of criminal misdeeds, and thousands of lies) toast. Even his loyalest of minions appear to know it.

Excuse me while I go throw up. They lie, lie and lie. The Atlantic is a well respected entity, unlike Donald J. Trump

No one, and I mean no one, loves and cares for our service men and womenas much as our President, Donald J. Trump.

Don't like to wish ill or harm of anyone ... but ... I hope when Trump leaves the White House there are dozens of prosecutors waiting to have a chat with him and no one is there to protect him or lie for him.

White House tells federal agencies to cancel 'divisive' racial sensitivity training: report

The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has reportedly directed federal agencies to cancel employee racial sensitivity training that may be "divisive" and "un-American," according to multiple reports.

A memo obtained by The Washington Post and first reported by RealClear Politics instructs federal agencies to cancel contracts that teach employees America is an "inherently racist or evil country."

Whenever I read this kind of story, I smell the stench of Stephen Miller.

 

[Innula Zenovka]

If you read the memo, though, it seems intended primarily to mollify an irate and spluttering Trump. It begins,

It has come to the President's attention that Executive Branch agencies have spent millions of taxpayer dollars to date "training" government workers to believe divisive, antiAmerican propaganda.

and continues

The President has directed me to ensure that Federal agencies cease and desist from using taxpayer dollars to fund these divisive, un-American propaganda training sessions. Accordingly, to that end, the Office of Management and Budget will shortly issue more detailed guidance on implementing the President's directive. In the meantime, all agencies are directed to begin to identify all contracts or other agency spending related to any training on "critical race theory", "white privilege", or any other training or propaganda effort that teaches or suggests either (1) that the United States is an inherently racist or evil country or (2) that any race or ethnicity is inherently racist or evil. In addition, all agencies should begin to identify all available avenues within the law to cancel any such contracts and/or to divert Federal dollars away from these unAmerican propaganda training sessions

Phrases such as "will shortly issue more detailed guidance" and " In the meantime, all agencies are directed to begin to identify" don't read to me as if there's any great urgency about the operation.

Rather, they suggest Trump spluttering over something Stephen Miller has said, or something he's seen on the telly, as the Washington Post suggests --

It could not immediately be learned what training sessions Vought was referring to in the memo. Recent Fox News segments have heavily criticized “diversity and inclusion” efforts in the federal government started under the Obama administration.

“It’s absolutely astonishing how critical race theory has pervaded every institution in the federal government,” Chris Rufo, research fellow at the right-wing Discovery Institute, told Fox News’s Tucker Carlson earlier this week.

-- and OMB Director Russell Vought has, as instructed, fired off a memo about it. Whether anything more comes of it -- such as the promised "more detailed guidance on implementing the President's directived" -- is another question. I think they may be a bit held up, since he told Fox's Chris Wallace, remember, back in the middle of July, that

We're signing a health care plan within two weeks, a full and complete health care plan that the Supreme Court decision on DACA gave me the right to do. So we're going to solve -- we're going to sign an immigration plan, a health care plan, and various other plans. And nobody will have done what I'm doing in the next four weeks. The Supreme Court gave the president of the United States powers that nobody thought the president had, by approving, by doing what they did -- their decision on DACA. And DACA's going to be taken care of also. But we're getting rid of it because we're going to replace it with something much better. What we got rid of already, which was most of Obamacare, the individual mandate. And that I've already won on. And we won also on the Supreme Court. But the decision by the Supreme Court on DACA allows me to do things on immigration, on health care, on other things that we've never done before. And you're going to find it to be a very exciting two weeks.

but maybe the drafts of the full and complete health care plan and the DACA plan are still stuck in the mail.

Mind you, I'm still wondering when that "Infrastructure week" is going to happen.

Nothing has cheered me more this year than seeing the military turning away from this facist organization.

 

[Kara Spengler]

How you know the story about what he said about dead heros is true.
If you were president and someone said you did that what would your snap reaction be? That it was a trick by the other party or that someone insulted your patriotism of the country you were sworn to protect and using dead vets to do it?

‘Who’s Putting These Ideas in His Head?’

The former FBI agent Peter Strzok worries that Americans will never learn the full story about Trump’s relationship with Russia.

Strzok: [....] Look at Trump’s failure to disclose his taxes, look at the story of his telephone call with the president of Ukraine. Time and time again, Trump is fighting tooth and nail to avoid things becoming public. If you’re a foreign intelligence service and you are able to use all of your tools to collect information—to intercept emails, intercept phone calls, recruit people or place people in the president’s orbit who can supply information—you are going to find out about the things that Trump is trying so hard to conceal because they would be damaging to him. That gives you coercive leverage. And that begins to explain why he has time and time again done these inexplicable things that have no positive outcome for U.S. national interests.

Applebaum: For example?

Strzok: Like, for example, why did he not take stronger action against the Russians for placing bounties on American soldiers in Afghanistan? Why has he, for no apparent reason, moved 11,000 American troops out of Germany? Or here’s an obscure one: Why did he parrot Russian propaganda and call Montenegro a “very aggressive” nation when that country had just joined NATO? Everybody knows damn well that Donald Trump couldn’t find Montenegro on a map. Who’s putting these ideas in his head?

The traitor calling anything un-American is rich. It's especially rich coming right after the public learned of his remarks about service members.

Proof of dementia? Who did he think the woman on the trip with him was?

 

[Soen Eber]

He's messaging/doing damage control for his base, who would still find him not guilty even if he shot someone on 5th avenue. After all, he still needs them to buy books and commerative coins and copies of signed bills and ... shiny ... after he leaves office.
