"It's all our fault"
Posted by mrc on 12-28-18 at 05:58 PM
We are all to blame for The Donald.“The Apprentice” portrayed Trump not as a skeezy hustler who huddles with local mobsters but as a plutocrat with impeccable business instincts and unparalleled wealth—a titan who always seemed to be climbing out of helicopters or into limousines. “Most of us knew he was a fake,” Braun told me. “He had just gone through I don’t know how many bankruptcies. But we made him out to be the most important person in the world. It was like making the court jester the king.” Bill Pruitt, another producer, recalled, “We walked through the offices and saw chipped furniture. We saw a crumbling empire at every turn. Our job was to make it seem otherwise.”

It's the fault of the 62,979,636 people who voted for the pathological liar.
Passengers on fooner's crazytrainCompared to Hillary's 65,844,610 votes, subverting the will of the majority to the tyranny of the minority.

I think the blame for him being him is his alone. In a very real sense, he is a self made man.A lot of easily deceived people were fooled though. Then there are those who will just never vote for the other party, no matter who is running.

Yup, you're joking, but Mr. Trump certainly isn't.

I'm in D.C. for the week to attend a conference.Never seen D.C. so empty, it's actually refreshing to move around freely for a change.
Having said that, it's time to get the raving lunatic with no political experience and no inclination to learn on the job or listen to experienced, qualified staff out of there and put in somebody who at least knows how to navigate the waters.

If there were aliens from outer space, Trump wouldn't hesitate to build a wall (actually a shell) surrounding the entire planet, even as impractical as that sounds.

He is shaking up DC. Good for him! Namby-Pamby wankers!
Good driving to you, Pepe. Thank Trump once in a while.

Trump obviously doesn't know how to speak "politically correct" and yes he does a lot of bragging.
But he has taken a stand on several issues and sticks to his guns. Hasn't changed his tune about immigration like so many others have.
I'm not against immigration. Just come legally. Work, pay taxes, pay for insurance, ...

LAST EDITED ON 01-09-19 AT 07:30 PM (EST)Shaking up government is good. Usually very admirable. I've Been fighting that good fight all my life.
But doing it by hiring incompetent and/or bigoted grifters and criminals, then being forced to fire them, maybe not so good.
Also, becoming Putin's errand boy is not so good.
I think there are some (a few anyway) politicians who are a little less sleezy that we could replace him with, so let's get rid of him, replace his carney act, and get on with business.

You came out ahead.Look at it this way, at least Putin's not your boss.
And probably no radioactive umbrella poke in your future. Probably.
Nice hat.
