Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.
Like, I cannot articulate how much it pleases me that Trump is so obsessed over his terrible situation. He legit might be more stressed out and depressed about life than Lincoln was during the Civil War or FDR after Pearl Harbor, all because he's so unbelievably self absorbed and selfish.

Me too. I hope he's really, really unhappy with his current lot, and it certainly seems like he is.

Joe Biden is a top 15 president
"These constant news stories are giving me stress ulcers." Trump says, turning to the white house intern. "I'm not under investigation, but it's a great amount of stress being lied about constantly. A great amount". The intern pauses, possibly wondering about bringing up heliobacter pylori, before deciding against it and nodding.

Last year, Richmond wilted on the mound, and the Republicans won 8-7, their first victory since 2008. The night before the game, Richmond, now 43, had spent all night with dozens of other Democrats staging a sit-in on the House floor.

Because you're not being "denied" something, you just can't afford it. And since more money = better than, it's only right that you die sooner, rather than there being any kind of rational decision-making process. As far as I can tell, that's what these people believe.

I think to be hypocritical you have to care about it on some level but rationalise it away when you do it.

They just don't care, it's a purely partisan attack and they know it.

No expert evaluation to make sure you're not inadvertently loving something up in a big way. So afraid that the public will hate it you're keeping it secret so you can hope they won't hate it as much as you fear.

Those should be huge red flags that voting for this will destroy their careers.

E: I guess they're backed into a corner because they're hosed if they don't pass something, so McConnell is using a psychological tactic to play on their hope there is a way out of this by insulating them from the public reaction to the bill they're writing

Trump hiring one of his moron divorce lawyers to represent him is a low-key subplot that needs to be monitored.

lol. nice. i personally dont think pence is involved per say but i think knows a ton and he knows the ship is sinking and on fire. he is smart enough to lawyer up and try to save himself and maybe even get to be president at the end off all this poo poo.

'Daily Show' to open library dedicated to Trump tweets

The real-life library will be free and located at 3 West 57th Street in Manhattan, just steps from Trump Tower.

“You can go to both of those buildings for Trump’s tweets,” Noah said, “but ours will let you in.”
...
The satirical news program says exhibitions at the library will include a “marquee attraction” that allows visitors to compose “a totally necessary tweet upon a golden toilet installed in the Oval Office.”

Another exhibit, “Sad! A Retrospective,” will showcase a video displaying “a collection of people, places and things that the President has deemed ‘SAD!’”

I want to see Trump break down live on TV. I want to see him lose hope that he's going to be okay despite everything around him constantly wiping and kissing his rear end. Him suffering is all that matters in ruining this Presidency, despite the fact that I want him humiliated and gone, his legacy shot and his actions undone no matter how long it takes. Trump must suffer an agony only the slighted egotist can be inflicted by.

The thought of Trump just meandering up and down the halls of the White House screaming "I'M NOT UNDER INVESTIGATION!" in increasingly angry tones into any open door he bumbles across is just delightful.

Would be best if he soiled himself, just saying.

Oh, and if his whole family turned on each other.

And the word "trump" became synonymous with failure to a point that they have to change the term in Bridge.
