(27,813 posts)Mark Penn, master of the bleedin' obvious. I'm sure no one in Trump's circle ever thought of getting him to fake 'looking presidential' in order to distract 'the base' from his latest scandal.
It's a classic move from the GOP playbook - and as predictable as the sunrise. What they haven't figured out yet is that selling out our national security in exchange for personal gain isn't as easily distracted from as paying off a porn star, or dismissing the latest under-the-bus victim as a disgruntled, lying crackpot.
No doubt they're paying Penn extremely well for his 'expertise', because Republicans have a penchant for wasting money on snake-oil salesmen - in fact, they actually elected one.

More Trump will send his popularity from 20% to as high as 21%. Its the same morons who believe Trump cares about soldiers who believe his head fits on Rockys well-conditioned bodythey ignore the Depends in his boxing shorts.
