The Trump Presidency: Now auditioning for 51st State


lol... "The Trump administration is arguing that requiring real-time American Sign Language interpretation of events like White House press briefings 'would severely intrude on the President’s prerogative to control the image he presents to the public,' part of a lawsuit seeking to require the White House to provide the services ... also writing that the president has 'the prerogative to shape his Administration’s image and messaging as he sees fit.'

Last month, a federal judge rejected that and other objections from the government, issuing an order requiring the White House to provide American Sign Language interpreting for Trump and Leavitt’s remarks in real time. The White House has appealed the ruling, and while the administration has begun providing American Sign Language interpreting at some events, there’s disagreement over what services it has to supply.”
 

NY Times interview with Trump Chief of Staff, has some really funny shit in it
Over the course of 11 interviews, Ms. Wiles offered pungent assessments of the president and his team: Mr. Trump “has an alcoholic’s personality.” Vice President JD Vance has “been a conspiracy theorist for a decade” and his conversion from Trump critic to ally was based not on principle but was “sort of political” because he was running for Senate. Elon Musk is “an avowed ketamine” user and “an odd, odd duck,” whose actions were not always “rational” and left her “aghast.” Russell T. Vought, the budget director, is “a right-wing absolute zealot.” And Attorney General Pam Bondi “completely whiffed” in handling the Epstein files.
 
Trump's gonna give a speech tonight that'll be broadcast so it should be an interesting night at least. I'm sure fans of these shows will be pissed, lol.

 
How has there been zero discussion of this? Did I miss it?



 
So the address was Trump hopped up on Adderall yelling a stump speech at us for 20 minutes at 2x speed.
 
So I was thinking the other day about L. Brent Bozell, the Parents Television Council dumbass from the early 2000s. And it turns out he's Trump's ambassador to South Africa??

In 1987, Bozell and the NCPAC joined a coalition of groups opposed to the Reagan administration meeting with the president of the African National Congress, the leading anti-apartheid group in South Africa. Bozell wrote that he was "proud to become a member of the Coalition Against ANC Terrorism." In 2013 Bozell complained on Twitter that the mainstream media "mythologizes" the late anti-apartheid leader and first president of a post-apartheid South Africa, Nelson Mandela.
Of course.
 
He makes it so hard to dislike him sometimes. Why can't we have a sun downing president for good instead of evil?

In a perfect world, he'd be like this. Instead, he's a grotesque sex offender who is mostly depressing to watch but is occasionally amusing.
 
Along with actually helping Bibi "finish the job" in Gaza, George W Trump bombed yet another country yesterday. Another Christmas Bombing 50 years later but, instead of Nixon attacking Cambodia and propping up the Khmer Rouge, this time the celebrity geriatric attacked Nigeria. Maybe because of what his fellow celebrity Nicki Minaj was lying about.
