It couldnt be more opposite of the Obama Administration if it tried.

(4,341 posts)who accepts he/she is a moron?
Morons like Trump think they are the greatest the World has ever had, he will never recognize the fact that he is a moron. With all the laughter he is causing, the jokes, the cartoons, the character playing by comedians, and he still doesn't see it, his family doesn't stop him to say "Dad, you need to act more adult (see I am not even saying 'Presidential'), you are acting like a moron, the whole World thinks you are a moron, please behave", that could help, although I doubt Don Jr would try because he knows his dad will throw him under the bus and maybe land in jail.
I don't want to crash your hopes that he will one day look in the mirror and say 'I AM a moron'.

Uh,oh. Psychology dropped that usage in the 60s.
Looks like it's making a comeback 'cause of you know who.

Ok I edited my statement to be more coherent.

"Everybody needs to be packing because, get ready, Democrats are going to be killing people."

(2,868 posts)I think to jump into the cauldron that is this administration a person has to be an opportunist, hoping for a party assignment when it all collapses like the house of cards that it is, a person of very modest intelligence who sees it as a jewel in a very shrunken tiny crown, like say Rick Perry, or a vile, loathsome, noxious excuse for human life, like Sessions.
Slim pickin's.
I think Tillerson did a terrible job. Tho he was a competent and capable person, he was carrying out contemptible policies for trump.
Still, the next one who'll replace him won't be better.

Could it be that the moron is lying when he tells us it's "fake news?"

(27,757 posts)but would it be "safe" to do such a thing?
After all. this is a guy with proven mob connections (like his buddy Putin)
Now, if you could send him tweets that were totally anonymous.....but can you do that?

(27,757 posts)As far as I know, Twitter is anonymous, but only up to a point
Twitter does know your url, and your email address I think.
When I signed up for Twitter, I think they needed to confirm my email address before I got my account set up.
I think I recall having to click on an email verification link they sent me before my account became active.

(2,559 posts)It would be the Trump equivalent of a hat trick - three top staff members all resigning simultaneously... if that doesn't get the House going for impeachment, I don't know what will... at least not involving nuclear weaponry or murder...

(27,757 posts)In my opinion, the GOP-controlled House will never impeach their "fair-haired boy."
The same is true for the 25th Amendment.
It just won't happen as long as Eddie Munster & Turtle Boy are in charge of Congress.

(32,556 posts)There's only room for one showboat in the Trump administration amd it's not any one of them.
Once the "pee tape" comes out they're all history anyway.
So why wait? They should all resign now and maybe maintain some "dignity" before the axe falls.
