I honestly for the love of God hope that he doesn't drink. I mean if he's this much of a raging asshole sober, can you imagine what he's like drunk? Or on some kind of substance?

he said that his brother had the good personality and "good thing I don't drink, right. That would be horrible..." He does see himself as an asshole, it works for him. A very very very very RARE moment of truth for king dumpshit.

Mike Pence Blames Democrats After Trump Denies Soap To Imprisoned Migrant Kids

https://crooksandliars.com/2019/06/mike-pence-blames-democrats-after-trump

SNIP
"The administration was actually arguing in court this week that the administration should not be required to give soap or toothbrushes or showers to children detained at the border," Tapper added. "Aren't toothbrushes and blankets and medicine and basic conditions for kids, aren't they a part of how the United States of America -- the Trump administration -- treats children?"

"Well, of course they are, Jake," Pence replied with a shake of his head. "It's one of the reasons we ask for more bed space."

The vice president, who is an evangelical Christian, argued that the Trump administration will not give soap to detained immigrant children because of Congress.

"Democrats in Congress refused to expand the bed space and the capacity for us to detain people," Pence complained.

"This is going on right now," Tapper pointed out.

"It's one of the reasons we continue to call on Congress to give DHS Customs and Border Protections additional resources at the border," Pence said.

It goes through all of these gop republican organizations asking for money. Most brought in millions, paid out 10s of thousands to the actual beneficiary or cause. The only ones that did better were the large national groups, most likely (my take) they were watched too closely. The GOP- grifter of people, they have replaced all principles and their own faith for the love of money. If they are christian, aren't they afraid of hell? I think most christians are really atheists, faith just seems like something to hurt people with. I find myself sometimes wishing their religion was true and there is a hell they're going to. And I've been a real atheist for 35 years. Fuck, just watched pence. My blood pressure, gotta stay off video...

I see a dark room in the White House basement full of right-wing scumbags on computers feeding him propaganda for approval, then he just hits "send". It's conceivable that Miller or others approve and send them without tRump's input or actions. He's too busy watching Faux TeeVee and plotting golf cheats.

It's easy to tell the ones he writes or has edited - they're incoherent and filled with spelling, grammar and structural errors.

Well, some of them, the Trump supporters, are incredibly stupid, but the overwhelming majority of the people of this nation can see that the republicans are the ones abusing immigrant children.
To say its the Democrats fault that the republicans are treating these children so badly is idiotic at best.
There is no sense of morality; no love in the hearts of these foul beasts.
Their hate is in their actions, and words.
For two years they controlled both houses of congress, and yet this was not an issue for them until the Democrats took the house.

I think they would be better off to just own their vile, cruel, vicious actions.
Their base would cheer them on. They should tell the truth about themselves and tell the rest of us to suck it.

I mean, that's what they think, why not own it?
Pretending it's someone else's fault means they know they are doing horrible things, but don't want to accept responsibility; don't want to be called on it.

Evil, thy name is republican.

Then why were they not passed during his first 2 years in office?
He is constantly telling us how great his administration is and how much he got done.
The wall? Told us numerous times Mexico would pay for it.

So this failure is all on Trump and Republicans. They didn't have 6 months to get what they wanted, they had 2 years.
They failed.
