Saving face and all that. Trump is showing his worst side now to be sure.

@loki with two weeks left, it's symbolic, I guess. How does it make a difference?
It tells you just how close Trump has come or coming to being hauled out of office. I suspect things went on yesterday and into the wee hours of the morning behind the scenes that a good historian is going to write a book about.

Well, it's self serving of course, reputation whitewashing.
But I welcome it. Because I want a functioning center-right party. And this ain't it.

That’s pretty sarcastic. I suspect he was feeling different things and many close friends were talking to him and helping him through a personal crisis in context to his professional responsibilities.

Thought exercise...
Take the whole Russia! horse shit out of the equation, like it never happened. Give Trump half as much fawning media coverage as Obama.
What would you have had? Center-right?
Strong borders, but with a guest worker program. Some new trade deals. No more Paris Accord. Conservative judges. Probably a big infrastructure bill. Tax cuts. More defense spending. Opportunity zones. More small business emphasis. Probably some tweaking of Obamacare and support for covering pre-existing conditions. Support for merit based college admissions and more support for rule of law on college campuses. Support for historic black colleges.

I've always objected to name-calling based on peoples' appearance, etc.
I find the approbation "turtle" insulting to McConnell and demeaning to the person who says it, yeah, including The Bee. It's reprehensible.
That said, I've made many "Orange Man" posts - all of them were to illustrate the pettiness of the appellation. If you can't say something substantive, insult the appearance. It's a a petty, childish thing to do.
Prediction: You're about to throw in President Trump's comment about the disabled reporter, amirite?
- Look at the video I posted about his history regarding that, and get back to me.
- As I've said many times before, President Trump is a horrible person. I would not want to associate with him in any way. But I don't vote on "friendly" or "nice." I vote on policy.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
