"it's a shame that the White House has become an Adult Day Care Centre"

Nobody could have done what I’ve done for #PuertoRico with so little appreciation. So much work!

How to turn a disaster into a self pity story, the need for praise and adulation reaches new lows. Still i'm sure the locals appreciated the paper towels he threw at them some as far as three rows back, takes superpresidential effort that :roll:

Being a completist, I just watched the full director's cut Puerto Rico press conference. It stands up to repeated views.

https://youtu.be/bgUl7eYYXpo

Standout moments -

1:50 - "Your weather is second to none" - except for the hurricanes

11:10 - Classic Trump - He effusively praises the coastguards, then:
Trump: "Would you like to say something on behalf of your men and women?"
Reply: "Sir, I'm representing the airforce."
Trump: "Yeah, I know that."

12:15 - after the airforce guy has talked about reopening the airfields and getting supplies in, Trump praises himself for buying expensive F35 fighters at a knockdown price.

13:30 - not a clue

It's definitely listening to the governor where he picked this up:

I want it live on TV.

Heart rate monitors on too.

bianchimoon

would you have believed this a year ago! President of the US so mentally unstable that he challenges his own Secretary of State to see who is 'cleverst'

"I think it's fake news, but if he did that, I guess we'll have to compare IQ tests. And I can tell you who is going to win," Trump said.

.. oh and he's already decided the winner comedy gold from the dotard

The Failing @nytimes set Liddle' Bob Corker up by recording his conversation. Was made to sound a fool, and that's what I am dealing with!

good to see the world problems are on hold while Dotard compares heights and bullies congressmen

Was this interview they set him up by recording the same one that starts with Corker saying "I understand we’re on the record. "?

“The war on coal is over,” Mr. Pruitt said. “Tomorrow in Washington, D.C., I will be signing a proposed rule to roll back the Clean Power Plan. No better place to make that announcement than Hazard, Ky.”

Apart from the damage this could do, why would any industry in the US 'other than the coal industry' go forward with this, they are already building solar and wind farms as part of the clean power plan, dotard is unlikely to be in power in 2020, surely just a momentary blip in history for the most technologically advanced nation on earth?

Alternatively can I put forward the ultimate pay to view fight, Rocket man v Trump?

Tell Trump that you have a genius failsafe way of making shedloads of cash for investors.

.@KellyannePolls: "We need a simpler, fairer [tax] system that doesn't benefit the wealthy as it does now."

this is so bizarre, i can't fathom out why she would tweet that, it's unreal :?

It's a tweet from FoxNews - just watched the interview. She was talking about the simplification of the tax system - saying it benefits the wealthy as they can hire the accountants to navigate the code. If you cut the number of tax bands, and the top rate of tax, that makes it better for everyone, doesn't it? Erm.

Basically, she says things like that because she is perfectly comfortable with saying things that are not the truth.

I think they are also increasing the number who pay no federal tax. The problem is where all the money will come from. That's why Bob Corker is important not to upset - he has said he'll vote against any tax reform that increases the deficit. Oops.

KellyAnn is also annoyed at Hils for not denouncing weinstein the (alleged) predator.

Irony levels at max.

No, it's better than that. She has denounced him, but it took her 5 days which is too long for Kelly Anne.

Just a bit like Trump and the Nazis.

"...30% chance of going full term...". the third option, not the 25th amendment, not impeachment: Maybe he's going bonkers and will be the first POTUS admitted to a mental health ward.

Does Pence not worry you or he takes over?

There's phrase that springs to mind "in God we trust". Well sorry, doesn't Pence claim to have God's book (the Bible) as his only guide. I don't trust a God that guides anyone to believe the cr@p Pence does. If those beliefs get into white house as POTUS I don't think it's much better than a nutty Trump.

Yes he does. But somehow the Americans couldn't see that a bible thumping madman was only to distract from the racist, misogynistic, sexual predator megalomaniac that was the bigger name on the ticket.

Trump thinks that the rising stock market means the US national debt is reduced.
