    Megalomania: a condition or mental illness that causes people to think that they have great or unlimited power or importance. In the modern era, the condition is referred to as Narcissistic Personality DIsorder (heightened feelings of importance, lack of empathy, and the excessive need to be admired typify this disorder).

    If I could armchair psychoanalyze for a moment... I'd say the US has a sick individual as its president.

    With the proper checks and balances, the US won't have Caligula on its hands... but it's shocking to witness a lunatic running the controls of the most powerful country on the planet.

    Say what you want, but I agree with that Australian reporter who expressed that anyone cheering for the decline of the US will not be cheering if China and Russia emerge as the most influential global powers. The US has put itself in a precarious position.
    But it's brilliant in all it's brilliance.

    and by the way
    Federal law makes it a crime for any person to “solicit, accept or receive” a contribution or “anything of value” from a foreign person for a U.S. political campaign or “for the purpose of influencing any election for federal office.”

    I have asked my boss (an attorney) several times WHY he voted for Trump; why he likes him soooo much better than Obama.   He consistently says "He loves this country.  He loves the values it was built on"... as if Obama did not. WTF... Trump loves MONEY AND HIMSELF.  I have to STOP myself from talking to him because I get so PISSED OFF. 

    This is like a nightmare that we never wake up from.....

    I would wager that those are the values your  boss is talking about - individualism and self-serving greed. Not wholly unusual qualities for a lawyer to admire.

    The recent BS the news from the right is peddling is that Obama is the 'shadow prez' and was at the G20 meetings undermining the Trump administration.  F'ing morons

    The reason why Trump is prez, and Bush before that, is because America is stupid and the republican base is especially f'ing stupid.  They can call news 'fake news', while their news is bat shit fucking crazy news, but it doesn't matter because they will suck it down.

    Sooo... you're saying there's two types of news:

    1. Fake news.
    2. Bat shit fucking crazy news.

    It's never been framed for me that way, but I think you're in to something. The US has slipped into another dimension.

    In their mind yes.   'Fake news' is actually real news.  Their news is bizarro world where only mouth breathers believe it true(much of America)

    They call real news 'fake news' and their batshit fucking crazy news with no basis in reality, logic or reason is 'real news'.

    I will post when I am sober....and it won't make much sense then either.

    No I won't.

    It's hilarious.  If there's one president in my lifetime that does not car about his country, it's Trump.  The others, even if they were not quite there, competence-wise, I think really wanted to do what was best for the country.  I don't think this guy gives a damn.  This is an ego trip.  You can't be an effective President because the novelty of being president is appealing.  And that's what I think brings him here.  200 + years and only 44 people on the list...prestigious.  

    Is he trying to ruin America?  No.  But he's not trying not to ruin America, either.  He's just stroking his ego.

    And why did Obama not love America?  Because he was black?  His middle name?  Left of center?  Yes, apparently.

    I post the his tweets over the course of a few hours to make a paragraph.  That way people don't focus on one tweet only.  It gives a better feel of what President Trump is saying to the masses.
    And the majority of it is nonsense, but we are so thankful for the time and effort you put into utilizing the copy & paste function.

    I'm so excited about the Olympic news! It's not like they are a huge waste of our money or leave the host cities in mountains of debt or anything.
    I missed any Olympic news. What is it? (FWIW, Vancouver was not left in any debt from the 2010 Olympics. The city definitely benefited from them. However, those were the Winter Olympics, and I realize that the Olympics can indeed be a complete economic disaster. The Rio Olympics are probably the most obvious example of that - omg, what a clusterfuck. Although that seemed to be the fault of the host city more than anything - they didn't have to be a disaster, but the city made sure they were, and that the aftermath is absolutely horrendous).

    I think there is now actually a book being published with all of Trump's tweets since he got into office. Someone mentioned it on Fallon or Colbert or something. I think that guy who took over for John Stewart maybe brought it up? Anyway, that will probably be a pretty fascinating and shocking read, lol.

    I've read that story before. it changes nothing. posing with a dead animal that you killed like a coward hiding in a bush doesn't make you "manly". it makes you a dick. sure, the hunting community likes to spin it with their "conservation" schtick. let nature take its course. if man isn't the one responsible for the animals overpopulation, then leave it alone. 

    even if it truly is about conservation, that doesn't erase the fact people are getting joy out of killing a living being and chopping its head off and putting on your wall. to me that's sick.

    "Hunting isn't about killing". 

    The article actually said that. 

    Okay. If it's not about killing, why do you end up, you know, killing the animal? Take a photo instead if it isn't about killing.

    Yeah, and another where he or the other one is literally lying on the carcass of some kind of big antelope-type animal he'd just killed as though it was a chaise lounge.

    tRump is cooked...it will take some time but he's done.

    I'm not sure if Pence can survive this either.

    Honestly, based on the connection to the campaign and not just Trump.  Pence has to go.  If he wants a political career at all....there will be a time where he will have to decide.  And he should step aside, say... "I wasn't involved and do not want to benefit from this"... and resign as VP before Trump gets booted.
