My son calls him Yertle the Turtle. Dd and I call him the Keebler Elf. I was just telling DD6 last night that Trump is The Onceler from The Lorax. You know, the guy who built a factory, chopped down all the Truffula trees and brought in his whole family to make Thneeds, and in the process chased out all the natural inhabitants and polluted the environment? Seriously, the parallels are frightening. Since Yertle was supposed to be based on Hitler and several of Dr. Seuss's books had overtly political statements I would love to see what he would be writing today! You know it would be brilliant.

We've been reading Yertle the Turtle too, and drawing the appropriate comparisons there as well. Sad, but true.

I can't even imagine the kind of draconian health plan the Freedom Caucus would dream up. (Here is your aspirin and a band-aid, see you next year!)

I'm sure we all knew it but for those who didn't president tiny hands let it be known in this tweet that he plans to sabotage ACA so it will explode.
"Great op-ed from @repkenbuck. Looks like some in the Freedom Caucus are helping me end #Obamacare."
Thing is the Freedom Caucus only wants to repeal the ACA as they don't want any replacement What so ever.

I'm starting to take the dementia talk seriously. This is just not normal. Even for a petty scorekeeper. He has repeatedly stated that he wants to make it easier to sue for defamation (take away first amendment).

I was trying to write a witty retort to micheley's latest tweets, but I just can't... I'm long over thinking any of it is amusing, funny, or even 'so tragic it's funny' if you know what I mean. Now it all pretty much runs right into just tragic; especially when I think of what things might look like a year or two from now.

But who is he going to talk to? The house investigation is pretty much done.

I don't know. The funny? thing is, the reports that he hasn't had any takers. What a mess.

Ah tiny hand's is at it again....
"The meeting next week with China will be a very difficult one in that we can no longer have massive trade deficits..."
"...and job losses. American companies must be prepared to look at other alternatives."
Good luck on finding "alternatives" the American People can afford....

Friendly reminder that I fucking hate The Orange Menaceâ„¢ I don't even know how he can say/tweet things like that with a straight face AND his followers act like that's the best idea ever...have they not seen the many many photos online of the labels in his and his daughter's clothing range that all say "made in China". There's a clip of him a few years ago on Letterman and Letterman is taking him to task on where his Trump clothes are made.
ETA: as a side note, don't you wish letterman was still on air, imagine what he'd be saying about Trump now? That I'd love to see.

I miss Letterman, too. I could see him taking down 45 -not with a direct attack but rather his way of just leading, giving and giving more rope and 45 would hang himself. Not even a close match of wits.

just watched the Letterman clip... Trump is such a hypocrite! He will say ANY.THING. that people WANT him to say, and I don't think he believes a WORD of any of it.

Wait a minute...National Enquirer this week has a HUGE cover story about how Trump has found the RUSSIAN TRAITOR in the White House - and it's Mike Flynn! They threw him under the bus, big time. But now he should ask for immunity because it's a witch hunt being used as an excuse by the Dems? Which is it - is he a RUSSIAN TRAITOR or the VICTIM OF A WITCH HUNT? He can't even keep the most basic of stories straight. Once you throw the guy under the bus, you can't pull him out and reinflate him. This isn't a Tom & Jerry cartoon. Although I guess it is turning out to be a Don and Mikey cartoon. Save

Did anyone see the signing ceremony that never happened? Trump cut it short after a speech from pence and walked out without signing the two orders he was to sign. Pence and others looked totally confused.

Maybe, but the Republican's plan does nothing to fix that. Only make it worse.

And he's off... "Anybody (especially Fake News media) who thinks that Repeal & Replace of ObamaCare is dead does not know the love and strength in R Party!" "Talks on Repealing and Replacing ObamaCare are, and have been, going on, and will continue until such time as a deal is hopefully struck." "The real story turns out to be SURVEILLANCE and LEAKING! Find the leakers." The love and the strength of the R Party? I have always said they are the party that eats its own. But notice how he admits it's not a done deal when he used the word "hopefully". I think the reality of politics may be setting in.
