I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!

Remember how someone here mentioned knowing what gym Richard Spencer went to?

They kicked him out.

Just some little good feelings for the morning.

I already know the answer but how could anyone on his staff let this happen? All it would take would be one semi-intelligent staffer to check his tweet before he posts it to see this was a BAD IDEA. Hell, if they can't keep the phone out of his hands at least have a staffer tasked with watching his feed and issuing a "What he meant to say was..." tweet within minutes.

They try as hard as they can to keep him from tweeting. We've had like a dozen stories about how the staff has to try to keep him distracted and happy to keep him from doing anything and how any time he manages to get away from his handlers, he watches TV, gets mad, and gets on twitter.

He lies to his staff, as the article about him misleading his national security team about his NATO speech proved. He does what he wants, and acts out when people try to stop him.

I know, you'd think they would have at least some form of damage control in place instead of what they currently have though. DOJ arguing it's not a ban vs. him saying it is is not a complicated legal analysis, just get some intern to screen his tweets for spelling errors and stupidity and 90% of his twitter problems would disappear.

poo poo, we've all worked with an impossible to fire rear end in a top hat/idiot before. Most places just have someone quietly manage the person in question. The WH doesn't even seem to be trying to do that. If they have been trying, it's been 4 months now, they need to get their poo poo together.



All that said, as one of the other guys I really do enjoy him sticking his foot in it every other day.

I can't tell if 'I'm going to continue to double down on attacking the mayor of our closest ally's capital after a terrorist attack on his people' or 'I loving love my muslim ban, which is totally a muslim ban' is the better one this morning.

The former is more vile but the latter is literally going to be used in court as evidence against him so I say the latter.

That quote's taken completely out of context, if no one's pointed it out yet. The mayor was saying "there's no reason to be alarmed" from the huge amounts of police on the street.

That tweet's going to piss off *everyone* in the UK.

Full quote: "Londoners will see an increased police presence today and over the course of the next few days. No reason to be alarmed."

Again. They were already pissed off at the first one and now he's doubling down after getting called out on his poor reading comprehension.
