Nice twitter own comparing q to a thing babies believe...unless, wait...we know q is someone with White House access


and we know q was uniquely positioned to learn of Obama's many crimes

and q is almost certainly an old white male

Oh.
God.
But no. This is crazy. For what I'm suggesting to be true would require magic, like flying, immortality, omnscience, straight up "sell your soul to the devil magic...unless...
Oh.

No.

Trump must be so happy that GHW Bush died at the perfect time for him. This week's news has been an utter disaster for Donald, the kind of week where he desperately needs anything else to happen that could distract the media from his own failures... And then his prayers are answered.

Also, I was confused at first to see people suddenly talking about GHW Bush, because I was certain he had died already, though I couldn't remember exactly when. When Mrs. Hobo heard the news, she had the exact same reaction. Wishful thinking?

He's been on death's door for a while and I'm pretty sure obituaries have been accidentally run in the past.

Naah, this is perfect, because the news is still going to be talking about DONALD TRUMP as he gives a speech about GHW Bush, letting Donald be on camera doing what he thinks of as his serious Presidentin' stuff, but in a context where nobody gets to ask him any of those awful questions about Russia or paying for sex or any of that.

The fact that this news isn't about Trump is of no concern, because it will still involve him, and he's a savant at turning things like that into stories about DONALD TRUMP anyway.

If anyone chides you for not "showing respect for the dead" or that you are bad for not caring about Bush being dead remember he had this to say about the 290 people we killed by shooting down an airliner in 1988.

Bush posted:

“I will never apologize for the United States of America—I don’t care what the facts are.”

Civility is something reserved for our leaders, not the people they kill; or defend the killers of.

Trump openly not giving a poo poo about the Saudis murder is not anything out of the ordinary for us openly making GBS threads on the dead.

It’s not really gonna help him though especially with his narcissistic brain. People are gonna go on and on how great Bush was and poo poo talk trump while doing it. That will make him jealous and he will say poo poo.

i know half this thread despises maddow in general, but her podcast that's exclusively about the investigation into Spiro Agnew that happened simultaneously with Watergate (but for unrelated, rampant corruption) is really good

and it prominently features a relatively young George H. W. Bush as part of the conspiracy to obstruct justice to try to cover it all up, which I had no idea about - i thought his notable crimes began with like, running the CIA and then pardoning Iran/Contra criminals and doing the Gulf War, but turns out they began way earlier

Public school teachers are callous dictators who won't lift a finger to stop children from peeing in my plane
HW was certainly a monster due to his actions, but he wasn't such an entirely reprehensible excuse for a human being on a personal level in every conceivable way.

That's one of the problems with Trump: he's such a vile, classless, vulgar imbecile that he makes people who are terrible monsters look somewhat acceptable by way of comparison.
