The Trump Presidency, Season 2

This is sad in many normal ways, but as the daughter of a dementia sufferer, ya GOT to take away the car keys even if you're sneaky about it.

And made in Area 51 by the Deep State of course with some fancy alien tech!

You know, I would fully prefer even a "failed clone" that was just a weird bubbling pile of human goo, as President over Trump.

Honestly, I'd rather someone GIVE him some car keys. And take away the nuclear codes and his internet access.

TACO is not a joke. Brokers and investors are now acting on financial predictions based on the certainty of TACO. This will stabilize and strengthen Wall Street and the dollar as long as it proves true.

Trump will have to not back down consistently, for several months, to nullify TACO. He has lost “wait for it,” “we’re negotiating,” and “you just don’t get it.” The situation is most likely unrecoverable.

Trump will yell and scream and execute people in his insanity. But it’ll be interesting to see how Lord Vought handles it and who he uses to puppet the damage control. I also wonder who he will scapegoat next now that Musk’s influence has been pushed under the table.

edit: replaced "balance" with "stabilize" because that's what I meant to say

Holy shit, TACOs have forced Khamon to post something dead serious.

Holy shit, TACOs have forced Khamon to post something dead serious.

It is true. And the jokes are funny. But the policy amounts to the billion and million aires in the US stating publicly that they don't believe Trump will follow through on anything. That is incredibly damaging to the administration. The last thing we, or Trump for that matter, needs is for Lord Vought to feel that something has slipped beyond his control. That's a real and proper danger.

Basically, they believe it's too much in too little time. Sort of like whenever Trump needs to take a dump.

This is the first I am hearing of it but Trump picking the "Heroes" for whatever would go in here, makes me want to fucking vomit.

It's going to be this * 250.

This is going to be a great year for hurricane preparedness. </nope>

FEMA staff baffled after head said he was unaware of US hurricane season, sources say

Staff of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season, according to four sources familiar with the situation.

The remark was made during a briefing by David Richardson, who has led FEMA since early May. It was not clear to staff whether he meant it literally, as a joke, or in some other context.

Oh yes. Comedy. </nope>

The bromance between Musk and Trump is officially over.

Pete Hegseth has ordered that the USNS Harvey Milk, named after the gay rights icon Harvey Milk, has to be renamed.

Military.com reached out to Hegseth's office for comment on the move but did not immediately receive a response.

However, the memo reviewed by Military.com noted that the renaming was being done so that there is "alignment with president and SECDEF objectives and SECNAV priorities of reestablishing the warrior culture," apparently referencing President Donald Trump, Hegseth and Phelan.

Milk became one of the first openly gay elected officials in U.S. history during the 1970s, making him an icon of the nascent gay civil rights movement, and was killed while serving on the board of supervisors in San Francisco.

The renaming news was slated to become public June 13, according to the memo.

A new name for the Harvey Milk was not given but, according to the memo, Hegseth and Phelan are planning to announce the new name aboard the USS Constitution, the oldest commissioned Navy ship.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., the former House Speaker who represents much of San Francisco, in a statement Tuesday called the decision to rename the ship "a surrender of a fundamental American value: to honor the legacy of those who worked to build a better country."

The Harvey Milk is a John Lewis-class oiler, a group of ships that are to be named after prominent civil rights leaders and activists.

CBS reported Tuesday that the Navy is also considering renaming other John Lewis-class oilers including the USNS Thurgood Marshall, USNS Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and USNS Harriet Tubman. Both Marshall and Ginsburg were Supreme Court justices, and Tubman was a Black abolitionist who helped slaves escape the South via the Underground Railroad.

Unlike the Milk, though, some of the ships being considered for renaming have yet to be completed.

Pelosi called that possibility "a shameful, vindictive erasure of those who fought to break down barriers for all to chase the American Dream."

"Our military is the most powerful in the world -- but this spiteful move does not strengthen our national security or the 'warrior' ethos," she added.

Warrior culture should be able to man up, rub some dirt on it and walk it off, even if they serve on the "USS Big Fluffy Unicorn".

Ships named after notable civil rights figures is, I must presume, afflicting their most precious snowflakes with crippling E.D.

Harriet Tubman in her prime could have kicked the ass of just about anyone in the current military. But she'd probably just shoot them to be safe. She took no shit.

I'd certainly bet on her over anyone involved in this decision.
