In reply to the discussion: OMFG! He's barking fucking mad! [View all]longship
(40,416 posts)145. What the fuck kind of strategy is that?
What purpose does such madness as we all witnessed today serve???
Pray tell me any rational explanation. And I am sorry. Bannon orchestrated it does not pass muster. No sane person would wish for such utter lunacy as occurred this afternoon.
This came from Drumpf, and only from Drumpf. Any other explanation is -- how can one say it? AHA! -- fake news.
This is Drumpf. This is who he is. We need to face up to that fact.
And yes, Bannon, and Stephen Miller, and Sean Spicer, and Kellyanne Conway, and Betsy Wetsy DeVos, and, and, and, ad infinitum, are also complicit.
However none of those others would be where they are now without Drumpf!!!
Let us never forget that, nor today's presser.

This was by far the weirdest, craziest press conference in the history of press conferences.
