I have to say, overall Trump isn't doing terrible on this trip so far. Getting his rear end kissed by billionaires is right up his alley, but that was the easy part.

That's true, the thread is kind of in pull-it-out-and-jack-it mode because the pussy is just a little too loose.

pretty weird that you can understand this but you don't understand the difference between statements like a lovely effigy hanging from a tree in someone's yard vs. a celebrity posing for a headshot with a prop as part of some other artistic statement

The time has passed for worrying about how people who are in the wrong will be offended. (For one, they will always be offended and you'll have given up your authenticity.) Freedom of speech needs to be fought for, ferociously.

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
it's magic it's tragic it's a loss it's a win
it's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
it's sad it happened and it's a shame.

You want it all but you can't have it.
It's in your face but you can't grab it.

Can it squeal, does it squirm
If it's fresh will it burn?
I can't put my finger on it
Can it fly, will it try

If the wings are still wet?
I can't put my finger on it
Can it heal, is it real
Can it feel the threads of time?

I can't put my finger on it
Does it glow, will it shine
Does it leave a trail of slime
I can't put my finger on it

Are you surprised when I touch covfefe inside?

South Korea temporally halts THAAD because of environmental reasons as they do an impact report. You would think they would do that before they started installation.

This is because we sent over the other 4 after the election without telling the elected Prez to try to make 'facts on the ground,' as I think those people put it. And so he was understandably upset.

Their word is that it was related to botulism

I would think if he tried to hang himself, they would have just said as much? Seems more likely than botulism - I read from accounts of other American ex-hostages there that the mental abuse was worse than the physical abuse, and it just doesn't make a lot of sense for me that NK would do this on purpose, given that most of the time they're out to get something in return for the release, where here they got nothing and seemed spooked.

In general, CNN is not to be confused with a respectable news organization. They have been trash for years, are trash, and will continue to be trash. Just because they have a good foil now doesn't mean they themselves have improved in any way.

Also they're run by Zucker, whom I will never forgive for screwing Conan over.

How about 'CNN, being representative of the abysmal state of the news media in America since the advent of cable news, and the sensationalism and lack of critical thinking that it has encouraged over that time, holds some share of responsibility for the current political landscape.'

You've probably noticed by now that Mueller isn't big on blabbing to the press about what he's got cooking.

Even when all the 'Trump will fire him!' stuff was going on, you never saw a single quote from him or anyone on his team. It's certainly intentional.

Are there any other members of the Trump administration you don't think we should talk about anymore?

Calling Kellyanne a witch makes you no better than anybody who calls Hillary a witch.

Calling Trump an orange monkey puts you in less of a tenuous position but doesn't really help anything. Might as well go shout it in the woods if you need that release so badly.
