It’s hard to imagine Trump having new, higher levels of awfulness, insanity, and derangement, but here we are.

The tweet-quote bug certainly makes for some interesting posts.

Don Jr. once again demonstrating he’s not even the smartest person named Donald J. Trump.

The President in particular is very much a figurehead — he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power but to draw attention away from it. On those criteria Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the most successful Presidents the Galaxy has ever had — he has already spent two of his ten presidential years in prison for fraud.

I think the CNN one is most accurate, and they’re listing it at 106 Dems and 1 former GOP.

Trump retweeting and pimping George Papadopoulos’s book almost made me blow a gasket this morning.

Read the redacted Mueller report PDF pages 88-103, page 191, and 200-202 to see why this is pure insanity that he has not had an impeachment inquiry opened yet.

Trump Friend’s Ties to Mideast at Heart of Lobbying Inquiry
As Donald J. Trump was preparing to deliver an address on energy policy in May 2016, Paul Manafort, his campaign chairman, had a question about the speech’s contents for Thomas J. Barrack Jr., a top campaign fund-raiser and close friend of Mr. Trump.

“Are you running this by our friends?” Mr. Manafort asked in a previously undisclosed email to Mr. Barrack, whose real estate and investment firm does extensive business in the Middle East.

Mr. Barrack was, in fact, coordinating the language in a draft of the speech with Persian Gulf contacts including Rashid al-Malik, an Emirati businessman who is close to the rulers of the United Arab Emirates.

The exchanges about Mr. Trump’s energy speech are among a series of interactions that have come under scrutiny by federal prosecutors looking at foreign influence over his campaign, his transition and the early stages of his administration, according to documents and interviews with people familiar with the case.

Investigators have looked in particular at whether Mr. Barrack or others violated the law requiring people who try to influence American policy or opinion at the direction of foreign governments or entities to disclose their activities to the Justice Department, people familiar with the case said.

The inquiry had proceeded far enough last month that Mr. Barrack, who played an influential role in the campaign and acts as an outside adviser to the White House, was interviewed, at his request, by prosecutors in the public integrity unit of the United States attorney’s office in Brooklyn.

Pet peeve of mine triggered by the 9/11 tweet above…

Trump just claimed he was down in the rubble with First Responders on 9/11. What he was actually doing was bragging about now having the tallest building in Manhattan while over 3,000 of his fellow New Yorkers were dead or dying.

Wrong:

The attacks caused the deaths of 2,996 people and the injuries of more than 6,000 others.[124] The death toll included 265 on the four planes (from which there were no survivors), 2,606 in the World Trade Center and in the surrounding area, and 125 at the Pentagon.

Just think, in a few months this thread will be one page with thousands of posts, that might take a little getting used to.

No pagination here? It’s gotta do lazy load or something, otherwise gonna take forever to load the page when it’s 10k+ posts

Edit: yeah looks like 40 posts per load from scrolling up.

The last tweet includes a video of Moscow Mitch a little hot around the collar, seems like the truth isn’t a good look for him.
