Trump clarifies his platform
-
It seems like a low bar for a platform but if successful he’d be the first president in a century to pull it off.

@89th said in Trump clarifies his platform:
Trump took a while to get to his priorities but he was pretty clear. Don't drop bombs on people. Don't kill people (presuming they aren't killed by the bomb itself).
- Does "don't drop bomb on people/Don't kill people" qualify as a priority? If so, how is that different from his first term's priorities? (Has "don't bump people/don't kill people" not been a priority in his first term?)
- How high a "priority" is it among his "priorities"? Do you think you know?
- Why does he take that long to get to his "priorities"? Could it be because of dementia?

If you read what he says, it's 'don't drop bombs on everybody', not 'don't drop bombs on anybody'. Dropping bombs on everybody is pretty stupid, admittedly. It could perhaps be more accurately parsed as 'Drop bombs on everybody with an even bushier moustache than John Bolton', which pretty much means bombing Iraq, and some 1980's porn stars.

Not that Donald Trump knows any porn stars. That's never been proven, and is completely false.

I think Mik and I can agree to you are a socially inept dick. Shucks, I think you might agree, too.
Now having agreed on that, let us sally forth. Trump said two things:
- He did not know Washington very well.
- By not knowing the town well, he made some mistakes in not doing some things, taking some bad advice and hiring some of the wrong people, such as Bolton.
-
Yeah because until you get to know DC there’s no way of knowing Bolton has always been a war monger.
Pretty much everyone here knew it. I guess we’re old DC hands.

No, you think Bolton is a war monger. Among certain conservative elements of the GOP, probably not.
Depends on whose hiring advice you are taking...One thing that is not debatable, are Bolton's foreign affairs chops. You may not agree with his perspective, but he ain't dumb on that subject.

I knew exactly what John Bolton was, and I'm a fucking drunk Briton who admittedly isn't that smart.
How did all American Stable Genius Donald Trump not figure it out quicker than this drunken moron?

See the above post, drunken Brit.

I have to say, I'd rather be a drunken Brit than a Teetotal Yank any fucking day of the week.
We gave the world Keith Richards. You supplied Donny Fucking Osmond. And yes, fuck you.

If not for Churchill’s swooning of Roosevelt you might have said that in German.

And who was the inspiration for the Stones? Dickie Valentine?

Frame it how you will, however your understandable shame and embarrassment at being so late for the first two World Wars in no way excuses your attempts to be quite so early for Number 3.

And Elton John, don't forget.

I think it is pretty obvious that he did not answer the question. The question was pretty simple: "What are your top priority items for a second term?" (But, he is talking like a politician. I would have been surprise if he (or any major candidate) would have answered differently.)
Re: hiring of people. At some point, it become probable that the problem is not with the people he hired, but with the person that is doing the hiring.
John Kelly
Rex Tillerson
John Bolton
HR McMaster
Gen. Mattis
Jerome Powell
etc -
OF COURSE he didn't answer the question. That much he has learned.
If he were to have listed some things he actually wanted to do in his second term, the MSM would have torn it all apart over the weekend. He certainly realizes there are countless people (MSM or TNCR or anywhere) that would like to tell everyone else what he must have really meant. So, dodge the question.Personally, I think he should go out tonight, cross the street where the "protesters" are, and punch the biggest lout right in the corn pop.
Then, walk back into the White House, turn off the porch light. Then before closing the door, he could yell, "I'm going to bed with Melania, loser(!), what fat, ugly, messed-up gender distortion are you gonna sleep with??"

Oh, come on Rainman, the only way Trump would ever get pushback from Hannity is if he were fucking him from behind.
