He's a "fan" of first responders?

[spiderpig]

A FAN?

Is everything media-related to him?

Never mind - I answered my own question.

1. Hi Spiderpig

It is the last "smart appropriate" word of the...you know that unknow weird thing currently squatting the Ovale Office ?

If so, I'm truly fascinated : I have never figured that the bar could be endlessly lowered...

5. Hi syringis

I lost count of the times The Dotard used the word "incredible" during this press op.

He is a total embarrassment to this country, and I regard him as a helium balloon pumping himself up until the inevitable combustion.

Sometimes it helps to take the long view, where our descendants (if we have any after Dotard's through) shake their heads and ask "What were they thinking?".

We respond from their past "We knew it! We tried! But The Stupid was too strong in this one!!!".

10. Do not worry too much about the embarassment

The vast majority in the world knows very well that Trump is NOT representative of you or your country.

11. Not entirely true

We went to Paris for the first week of January, before the Idiot Cockwomble was inaugurated. Many of the Parisians that we met and chatted with asked what we thought of the new president. Obviously, we expressed our profound disappointment and fears.

There was an interesting point in one conversation when we had to explain the Electoral College and why Secretary Clinton lost even though she had 3 million more votes. This man's response was, "But still, 60+ million Americans did vote for this cochon dégoûtant and now tout le monde has to deal with him."

He makes a good point that nearly half of our voters are out of their fucking minds.

14. I should have said he does not represent the majority of you.

Electoral College is the key point. I know it is sometimes hard to explain it here. We got rid of this kind of voting system decades ago.

To be fair, it is not the Electoral College on itself the problem.

It is the power given to the President.

I don't mind if a President is chosen indirectly since his position will mostly an honorific one. Without any possibility to interfere in the ruling of the country or unless in fields that are not strategics.

Many countries have this kind of President, Germany for example (due to historic reasons), Italy, Greece, ...

But if a President has more than an honorific position, he must be chosen by the population and reflect the will of the majority.

The President of the USA has a real strong power, much more than many Presidents in the world.

To me, he should be elected directly or have a lowered power.

In my eye, a president being indirectly chosen and having a strong power, hurts and opposites the Democratic principles.

The voting system was the appropriate one in the early years and was the most democratic one. But it outdated regarding the evolution.

I'm not specialist in these matters but I think it would be easier to get rid of the Electoral College than lower the President's power.

PS : I hope I have been clear enough and not to confused. I expressed my thoughts almost childishly because of a limited English vocabulary.

I'll try to do better if something is not very understandable.

7. as someone on Twitter said

the bar has not been lowered for Trump, the bar is on the ground rolling around

[syringis]

8. It is a plausible explanation

[marylandblue]

2. I can imagine him with a sexy police women calendar in his office

[yallerdawg]

3. His producers...

probably have him targeting particular positive demographics for "Presidential Apprentice" renewal in 2020.

When he got the original 4 years - that's the way it is set up short of an early termination of some sort - he immediately began his 2020 re-election campaign.

Texans, Louisianans, Floridians, and Nevadans can help. Police and other first responders can help.

Puerto Ricans are no help, no matter where they live.

4. He was with

the true face of the Clark County GOP.

[Skittles]

6. as usual, he sounds like a fucking idiot

[spiderpig]

9. I'm trying to explain him to my dog.

Words fail.

[Skittles]

13. your dog could expain stuff to me with more eloquence than that fucking buffoon "president" of ours

[Iggo]

12. He never heard the term "first responders" before this week.
