Trump went on one of his now famous word salad rants yesterday, blaming light bulbs for his orange spray tan, then moving on to indecipherable complaining about showers, sinks, and low water flush toilets, and then somehow tying all that to the steel industry.
Here is the entire riff, word for word. See if you can figure it out.
“The light bulb — they got rid of the light bulb that people got used to. The new bulb is many times more expensive and — I hate to say it — it doesn’t make you look as good. Of course, being a vain person, that’s very important to me. It’s like — it gives you an orange look. I don’t want an orange look. Has anyone noticed that? So we’ll have to change those bulbs in at least a couple rooms where I am in the White House. … We have a situation where we’re looking very strongly at sinks and showers. And other elements of bathrooms — where you turn the faucet on, in areas where there’s tremendous amounts of water, where the water rushes out to sea because you could never handle it — and you don’t get any water. You turn on the faucet and you don’t get any water. They take a shower and water comes dripping out, just dripping out, very quietly, dripping out.People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once. They end up using more water. So EPA is looking at that very strongly, at my suggestion. You go into a new building, or a new house or a new home, and they have standards where you don’t get water. You can’t wash your hands practically, so little water comes out of the faucet. And the end result is you leave the faucet on and it takes you much longer to wash your hands. .. For the most part. you have many states where they have so much water, it comes down — it’s called rain. They don’t know what to do with it. … A lot of things we do are based on common sense. If I didn’t get elected you wouldn’t have a steel industry. … We weren’t going to have a steel industry.”
A reporter confronted Nancy Pelosi today, asking her whether she “hated” President Trump through her decision to advance the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry.
She replied,
“I don’t hate anybody. I was raised in a Catholic house, we don’t hate anybody — not anybody in the world. So don’t you accuse me of any [hate],” Pelosi said during her weekly press briefing in the Capitol.
“As a Catholic I resent you using the word ‘hate,'” she continued. “Don’t mess with me when it comes to words like that.”
Would the same deal work for the President or even the Attorney General? If we protest, will y’all go away? If so, this restriction on the peoples’ right to protest might be worth it.
Hell, this little pudgy nazi said, “those who don’t show ‘respect’ to authority could lose access to police services.”
Although Barr didn’t specify what “communities” he was referencing, activists decried his speech as a clear attack on minorities who have protested police brutality and other racially skewed law enforcement abuses.
He even suggested that people stand outside of police departments and cheer for the police as the leave to go out on patrol. How about firefighters? EMS? Teachers? Nurses?
Barr, read a damn law book. You do not have the right to threaten the people of this country for exercising their constitutional rights. I don’t care what Trump tells you because he hasn’t read a book either.
Okay, so here’s the deal. Devin Nunes filed a lawsuit against CNN for $435,350,000, saying “CNN is the mother of fake news. It is the least trusted name. CNN is eroding the fabric of America, proselytizing, sowing distrust and disharmony. It must be held accountable.”
Oh, I dunno, but that might be just a tad of projection there, buddy.
That same day, Nunes trots over to Fox News and has this conversation —
Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) was interviewed by Sean Hannity on Fox News:
HANNITY: Did you ever talk to this guy Lev Parnas?
NUNES: You know it’s possible but I haven’t gone through all my phone records. I don’t really recall that name.
And that ain’t all.
Nunes is part of the cover up for sure but he may also have been part of the original crime.
I don’t think CNN is too worried about Devin’s lawsuit.
The phone records suggest Mr. Giuliani’s deep involvement in several key episodes that have become a focus of the impeachment probe. The frequent contacts between Mr. Nunes and two figures at the center of the inquiry—Mr. Giuliani and one of his indicted associates—are highly unusual and likely to renew calls from Democrats for Mr. Nunes to face an ethics inquiry.
And now since he lied to Sean Hannity, the poor guy has to sue every news media in the United States.
Okay, so Trump found this video of Justin Trudeau, Emmanuel Macron, and Boris Johnson making fun of him at a reception at Buckingham Palace. Click here to see it on Twitter.
Trump reacted as you would expect any grown adult would do.
He called Trudeau a degrading name, and then packed up his fat ass and came home.
