Trump exonerates himself in weird third-person tweet: 'President Trump didn't do anything wrong or..

..illegal’

President Donald Trump declared himself exonerated by former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski in an early morning tweet.

The president tagged Lewandowski, who testified Tuesday before the House Judiciary Committee, and “Fox & Friends” in a Twitter post reacting to coverage of the congressional hearing.

“As Corey Lewandowski stated very clearly yesterday in front of the House Judiciary Committee, President Trump didn’t do anything wrong or illegal,” Trump tweeted about himself. “But they all know that. The Democrats are hurting our Country, and getting nothing done. Shameful!”

OUCH. Hehehe



Boom! Jo is not playing...

Boris Johnson is a talented man with a bright future. It’s sad that some people think it’s okay to ruin his life just because he maliciously twisted the democratic settlement and betrayed the whole damn country.



Boris... Boris...Who The Fuck Is Boris??? Ahem...

“Why does no one like me” wonders lying, racist, back-stabbing, divisive, greedy, self-serving prick
Boris Johnson commented, “RUFF RAH!

“Oh come on, you lot, be game. It’s not like I’ve done anything to warrant this level of disdain.

“All I did was spearhead a dishonest Brexit campaign, stab a fellow Etonian in the back, stoke hatred towards Muslims, referred to black people as “piccaninnies”, swore in the House of Commons, taken away the very parliamentary sovereignty I claimed to be fighting for, and prepped Britain for nobody but the most sneaky of disaster capitalists.

“But come on, who hasn’t?”

Barack meets Greta

https://twitter.com/BarackObama/status/1174056583610949632

Just 16, @GretaThunberg is already one of our planet’s greatest advocates. Recognizing that her generation will bear the brunt of climate change, she’s unafraid to push for real action. She embodies our vision at the @ObamaFoundation: A future shaped by young leaders like her.


This. Perfect.

Trump throws shade at Cokie Roberts on (checks notes) the day of her death

Don’t look for a bottom. There isn’t one. It’s just elephants’ assholes all the way down.

Today, Trump was asked about the death of legendary journalist Cokie Roberts and, well, he just couldn’t help himself:

I cannot bring myself to care about the suffering they will endure

Conservatives exist for the singular purpose of safeguarding their privilege. They abhor any form of egalitarianism. It has evidentially been conservative policy since the 1970’s to exploit the working class. And yet many in the working class persist in voting against their own best interest. Look at Trump and look at Brexit. As things go tits up, the awful outcomes that are presenting themselves as we live through this moment in history, is 100% the fault of people who have voted for it.

Ironically, some of those most vulnerable to economic fluctuations are those who have brought this shit shower down on our respective heads.

For those who voted for Trump, for Brexit etc et al, I blame them, and I cannot bring myself to care about the suffering they will endure because of their choices. At this point, as they continue to defend their anti-democratic choices, one can happily say they have made their bed and they must lay in it, and while they may embrace that concept with glee I do not think they have a clue how bad things are going to get under our wannabe strongmen.

I predict riots…

As already deprived areas are further disadvantaged cause conservatives, people will not blame the votes they took, but that will not stop them taking to the streets to voice their despair – and despair it will be. I will say this, here in Brexit Land…for the first time in my tax-paying life, I will begrudge every single penny that has to be diverted from public services to feed those who voted Leave and who will inevitably suffer the consequences of that choice. But I can tell you one thing. It will not stop me saying I told you so.

This is sickening: "Who do you like more, the country or the hispanics?

https://twitter.com/latinovictoryus/status/1173799585099210754

We’re barely one month removed from the deadliest anti-Latino shooting & President Trump is back to spewing the racist rhetoric that incited that shooting.

At his New Mexico rally, he asked his supporters: "Who do you like more, the country or the hispanics?

This is sickening.


Well, this smacks of checking racial/religious communities for "dual loyalty." Who does that?

Oh...wait...

Heh
