Yeah! More Jokers To The Right! UPDATED
Don Trump and his hair have entered the Presidential race “to make America great again.” Yeah, like when women couldn’t vote.
UPDATE: I will admit that this is real Inside Politics and not of interest to normal people. But sometimes keeping tabs on what goes on in the smoke filled backrooms can explain what happens later in public view.
Back in March Rick Perry announced that former FEC Chairman Don McGahn will be counsel to his presidential campaign.
Former Texas governor Rick Perry is set to announce that Margaret Lauderback will serve as his national finance director and that Don McGahn will serve as his campaign counsel.
That was kinda a big deal until last night. Last night in the Washington Post —
Trump’s longtime financial advisers and Donald F. McGahn, a partner at Jones Day, have finalized the report about his finances in recent weeks as Trump has moved closer to jumping into the 2016 contest. Three people briefed on those discussions Monday requested anonymity in order to talk about the process.
Whoa, even Rick Perry’s financial advisor is two-timing him.
Then, to add some intrigue, the Washington Post dropped McGahn’s name from subsequent stories.
Trump’s longtime financial advisers have finalized the report about his assets in recent weeks as Trump has moved closer to entering the 2016 contest. Three people briefed on those discussions Monday spoke on the condition of anonymity to talk about the process.
So it pretty much looks like McGahn was one of the three anonymous sources. Oops.
Honey, when your big name campaign advisors become sources working for another candidate, you just might be a joke.
Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.
Have a question for all those righties……….
Is the United States the greatest country on earth?
Yes or no.
If it is, then shut up. We don’t need to be great “again.”
If not, how DARE you suggest the United States isn’t the greatest country on earth?!?!?
A little of their own medicine.
1Perhaps part of the plan to make sure that women can’t vote (Republican women at any rate) is to provide them with a field of candidates so vile that even if a women holds her nose and squints it doesn’t allow her to pull the lever for any of these jerks.
2Every circus needs it’s Barker shouting inanities at the people passing.
Trump seems tailor-made for the role.
3It just gets better and better. All we need now is Sarah to make it a full clown car.
4Hmmm. Add Sarah. Mix well with Carly. Let cat fight begin.

6I think we’ve gone well past even the metaphorical size limit of clown “car”. We are definitely in coach size with what, 172 announced GOP candidates?
Actually, he wants to Make Ameria Great Again. At least that’s what his sign, created by his tea of Santorum deserters, said.
7Clown caravan?
8If we get many more of these clowns, they’ll take up the whole train. Frankly, I prefer to think of them as lemmings joining the herd. And then off the cliff … heh
9I’m sorry but you just can’t have a presidential election without a boisterous serving of ‘the Hair’. A side of Sarah or Joe the fake Plumber always add a little bite to the flavor as well.
10Besides his announcement might bring Jon Stewart back to the show!
I accidently heard a few seconds of his announcement. He said he will be the greatest JOBS president. What is our unemployment rate now? How many of these jobs since 2008 are private sector jobs? Yea, sorry trump, our greatest jobs president is in office now!
11The Donald has thrown his hair into the ring. The GOP clown car has jumped the shark.
12Read The Donald’s announcement speech and you’ll see the remake of Citizen Kane.

He has Orson Welles beat by a mile. Never have so many non sequiturs been packed into such a small space.
13Trump’s finances have always been questioned, and it’s often been suggested his net worth is as inflated and bloated as the man himself. He now claims he’s worth $8.7 billion, but I say, 20 years of tax returns or it ain’t so.
14Well, Donald makes it 12. Cheaper by the dozen. Sigh.
15“you just might be a joke”??? No “might be” about it — he IS a joke, but then so is Trump. Come to think about it, there’s a reason it’s called the “clown car.”
16Trump’s approval rating is 27%, higher than Icky’s.
17Never mind Trump. That picture of Rick Perry wears me out just to look at it. How can he spend day after day acting like that? Maybe his heart doctor prescribed that instead of a treadmill.
18Didn’t take Trump long to run afoul of Neil Young about illegally using Young’s song “Rocking in the USA”.

19My bad-I meant rocking in the free world instead of USA. So sue me. 🙂
20They outgrew the Clown Car a long while back. Now it’s the Crazy Train.
21Frankly, I worry about a financial adviser who picks two losers. Not showing great judgement there.
22The Donald will not be traveling in the Clown Car, or any other shared conveyance. He will arrive in his own personal chauffeured Clown Stretch Limousine.
23Yah,but,does the Donald have a personal car elevator for his stretch limo? If he don’t he is a sorer loser than Willard the vulture capitalist,2 time loser for Potus.
24Never vote for a rich man.
25May we hope and pray that both Perry and Trump are found to have “financial irregularities” and run afoul of the law. Perhaps their creative accountant might have overlooked a crooked billion or so.
26Anyone notice the Jon Stewart Daily Show bit on Trump’s announcing that the correspondent was in front of the ‘T’ of Trump making it ‘rump’ as in like, backside, rear end, *ss…
