"Shambling lard muffin." I like it. Trump's derogatory nicknames are so juvenile: "crooked," "shifty," "sleepy" - sounds like the Seven Dwarves of his dreams. Whereas the derogatory names bestowed on him by the blogetaria are genius: "vulgar talking yam," "fascist loofa-faced shitgibbon," "Tiny-Fingered, Cheeto-Faced, Ferret-Wearing Shitgibbon" (thank you, Scotland), "President Duamp-nuts", and now this.
Speaking as another native New Yorker, Trump is making us all look bad with his unoriginal slurs. Although no one can compete with the lyrical inventiveness of the Scots, we NYers usually know just where to stick the knife in when it comes to derogatory nicknames.
I saw a poll last night that said a slight majority of Americans APPROVE of how Trump is handling the COVID-19 crisis. If the poll isn’t an outlier, that’s pretty mind-boggling. This is what happens when the media normalize Trump: he goes out and publicly shits the bed with some rambling misinformation that has to be corrected three times, and the media reports it as “White House revises its strategy to combat the virus.”
wonder what they'll think of him giving $850 billion to big business and looting their social security accounts? Well, maybe "think" isn't an appropriate word.
Fortunately we can count on the steadfast Dems in the House to hold firm. They’d never bail out hotels and cruise lines while giving nothing to ordinary worke—HAHAHAHAHA!
Just when you began considering the idea that America can't possibly get any more stupid, the great American spirit of innovation unveils entire new forms of stupid.
By 2028, I would not be even slightly surprised to begin reading about the ever-rising death toll from people sticking their tongues in light sockets so they can find out what electricity tastes like. And our national response to this will likely be to ban electric lights and have everyone go back to whale oil lamps.
Posh! America still has that can-do attitude! They said we couldn't quadruple the deficit to give ore tax cuts to billionaires and corporations--BUT WE DID IT!!!
They said we couldn't completely hobble the EPA and go back to 1960s levels of pollution--BUT WE'RE DOING IT!
They said we couldn't let ourselves get caught off-guard by a global pandemic--BUT WE DID IT!
They said we could elect an ignorant incurious dolt to be President of the United States--BUT WE DID IT! Three times now!
Well, ~$300b of it is kind of legitimate although the less expensive House bill, with true sick leave inserted, would do a lot more good. Ditto quick (socialist) payouts to all citizens.
People are desperate to believe someone competent is in charge and going to make it all better. It’s not just on the Repug side. There are plenty of Dems going fanboy/fangirl over their fave political figure despite no clear evidence that the person is actually superhuman.
Found a typo, Roy: "KUSHER has put up an easel..." As for the column, it shows your version of Trump at his most sociopathic. It's as chilling as it is hilarious.
I gather you, too, don't believe Trump's test was negative.
*Idris Elba* has it. There's no way that shambling lard muffin Don doesn't have it.

Don't forget the original and still the best: "short-fingered vulgarian."

I’m still pulling for Il Douché
Careful, the Just World Hypothesis can strike _anyone_ at any time.
I don't believe he was tested.
Only the very best coronavirus could infect him!

Let's face it, we're doomed.
This is why I want to watch Jacobean revenge tragedies right now.
And the number could have been reduced but, you know, the Party of Trump rules.

Huh. *Checking list of big GOP donors to see which ones own a whaling concern*
We've been a can't do nation since 9/11 when we became a nation of cowards.
And here we are.

Where that? Can't, won't believe it without citation, sorry, no.

How many days until the white house goes into "No one could have predicted" mode? 10 days? 14 days?
"No one could have predicted" will be a wingnut talking point within a month.
"Hoocoodanoode" will be the official sneeze of the White House.
I think it happened already.
TRUMP, exiting: "Hey, they gonna let you wear one of those jumpsuits in jail? Ha ha ha."
Totally nailed it!
