Disturbing thoughts from the Washington Post this morning.

“In private conversations, Trump has told advisers that he doesn’t think the 2018 election has to be as bad as others are predicting. He has referenced the 2002 midterms, when George W. Bush and Republicans fared better after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, these people said.”

So, he thinks that all he needs to win is for 2,996 people die in an inferno?

Which pretty much explains the weird woman who remembers that dirty words were said, but not the words themselves, being your pick for Homeland Security Director.  I dunno know, maybe it’s just me but I’m not sure about about a Security Director who lies so easily but so damn badly.

First off, yeah, Trump, I’m sure Putin heard you and will do all he can to help you.  However, now that you’ve admitted it, I don’t think it will have the desired results.

Second off, Trump, you’re a pig.

As Matthew Yglesias said – “I’m pretty skeptical that the political dynamics of September 2001 would be replicated today. But regardless, this is a frightening line of thought for an incumbent president and his team to be entertaining.”

No shoot, Sherlock.
