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.

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.

Pretty much sums up my thoughts on the matter.

Sometimes, re-reading a discussion such as this in the cold light of day teaches me a valuable lesson.

In this particular case, the valuable lesson to be learned is not to post after attempting to make dry martini's for the first time.

Sorry, everyone

[Mik]

Drunk posting is a time honored tradition at TNCR. Next day regrets, not so much.

Have you ever applied that same thing to Obama?

I didn't think so.

De nada. I had to go back and review to even know what you were referring to.

[Mik]

It did seem awfully normal for Phibes, now that you mention it.

[Horace]

Deeply troubling.

Actually thought that this was quite a brilliant retort.

Certainly after reading larsons take on Churchill.

[Doctor Phibes]

Maybe I should drink martinis more often.

Then again, maybe not.

[Jolly]

Shucks, I thought I had you at Dickie Valentine.

I've got to remember that nice phrase.

[Horace]

If you think the phrase is nice, just wait till you try it.

@Larry I would be happy too. I am not "marry" to one side. However, when someone bases their "reputation" on the fact that they only hire good people, and "trumpet" (no pun intended 5555) the fact that they are such a good judge of people, etc., they SHOULD be called out on it, whether or not it is Democrat, Republic, Communist, Fascist, etc etc

I do stand by my point that a number of high level respected people very close to teh President (does not matter if I agree with them or not - for example, i previously did not like Mr. Bolton and I still dont. I did not like Mr. Tillerson, and I still dont) who left/fired from the administration have had quite a bit of negative things to say about President Trump. At some point, as the English saying goes - if it walk like a duck, sound like a duck, etc etc

I do not remember the same number of high level people questioning the competency of President Obama. AGAIN, I WOULD SAY THE SAME THING IF THAT WERE THE CASE.
