Containment may be a moot point, old friend. The exodus continues. It's like the party's over and the last one to leave gets stuck with the check.

He's got a loaded bullpen over at Fox. Dobbs, Hannity, Kilmeade, Waters, Pirro. Maybe get Eric Bolling back for a WH comeback.

He needs most of those to do his bidding on Fox. Bolling might be a realistic option.

Fake. He's actually much fatter.


Even if fake, the suit is real. How can anyone with a decent amount of money and fame dress that shitty all the time.

They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

But I speak to border guards and they tell us what we're getting. And it only makes common sense. It only makes common sense. They're sending us not the right people.

It's coming from more than Mexico. It's coming from all over South and Latin America, and it's coming probably -- probably -- from the Middle East. But we don't know. Because we have no protection and we have no competence, we don't know what's happening. 

 

I need to get into the bunker business.

In one thread you're pointing out his hypocrisy but in another you're cheering for him to start a war. Pick a position dude.

Did shithead call out Putin for the first time ever?   Exactly how puckered is his ass right now?  

if fecalnoggin called out putin, it was because putin ordered him to do it.  if that happened it was likely because they are trying to discredit info showing the puppet's subservience to his ventriloquist.  they've done this before.  remember our so-called bombing of that runway in syria?  just trying to throw off the dogs.

Wait, when did the Pentagon become "liberal circles"?  And isn't this the President who ran on a platform of  "trusting the Generals"?

No shit.  Even Christie, who is much fatter and poorer than Trump, manages to have better fitting suits.

Why does this shock you guys?  Look at all of the "quality" goods he has peddled over the years. Shitty vodka, shitty mail order steaks, water, and a self help real estate seminar disguised as a university. He's the white trash version of a multimillionaire. He puts gold leaf on everything, ketchup on well done steak, his maga hats have that puffy top like an old Boston Whaler hat from the early 90s, and his hairstyle if you can call his attempt to cover his baldness is even out of style. What in the world would make you think that his suit is going to be tailored or in style?

Well, sure, if you’re going to put it like that with your logic and facts...

His far north, off the strip Las Vegas hotel that doesn’t have a casino is the most underrated of his “art of the deal” business fails.  

He doesn't have too many successes outside of Manhattan.  And even in Manhattan, he has never beaten overall market growth.  He's also completely non-existent in the new luxury tower boom.  He moved primarily into name licensing rather than building, and has now destroyed his name.

He was never really a market leader.  People think he's a mogul because he was successful at marketing himself, but just like Pawn Stars aren't the biggest or best pawnbrokers, Trump isn't the biggest or best Manhattan real estate tycoon.  Durst, which weathered a murderer in the family, is a comparable enterprise that does/did better.  Lefrak did better also.  And that's just among privately held real estate developers.  Most of the big builders/owners in Manhattan are public.

Good thing they opted out of the casino part. Then he would have bankrupted 3 casinos instead of 2.

He couldn't get a gaming license for his place in Vegas.

Speaking of his Vegas timeshare/condo dwelling that passes as a "luxury hotel"; it has higher standards on hiring practices than the White House:

https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-hotel-to-employees-dont-hire-relatives?ref=home

 

Quote

Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has presented all kinds of headaches for his White House. Forget the multiple federal investigations into the Kushner family businesses; his manifold financial interests have presented scores of potential conflicts of interest, impairing both men’s reputations and damaging the public view of Kushner’s family brand.

This all would have been avoided if Trump had followed the rules governing his Las Vegas hotel, which largely bar giving top jobs to family members.

We know about those rules because Property of the People, an advocacy group specializing in Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) litigation, obtained the Trump International Hotel Las Vegas employee handbook as part of a FOIA request of the National Labor Relations Board. The NLRB heard a case related to allegations of union-busting at the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas, and Property of the People FOIA’d the hearing transcripts as well as all the exhibits that were entered.

One of those exhibits—entered on Nov. 18, 2015—was the hotel’s Associate Handbook, which includes all the rules employees at the hotel had to follow. The handbook as it was entered in court is published in full below.

The handbook has strong words about hiring family members.

“While TIHLV [Trump International Hotel Las Vegas] does not wish to deprive itself of the services of potentially valuable Associates by establishing a policy excluding the employment of relatives, it must be acknowledged, that such employment can result in the appearance of a conflict of interest, collusion, favoritism, and other undesirable work environment conditions,” the handbook says. “Therefore, management reserves the right to limit the employment of relatives in situations within the company if a conflict of interest is deemed to exist.”

The handbook bars relatives from working “under the direct or indirect supervision of a relative.” It also bars relatives from working “in situations that create the possibility of conflicts of interest,” without the written approval of senior management officials.

Kremlin aide: Russia's centuries-long romance with West over

1 hour ago

MOSCOW (AP) — President Vladimir Putin's adviser says Russia has abandoned its centuries-long aspirations of integrating into the West and is bracing for a new era of "geopolitical loneliness."

Vladislav Surkov wrote in an article for Russia in Global Affairs magazine released Monday that "Russia's epic journey toward the West" is over, marking an end to its "vain attempts to become part of Western civilization" spanning four centuries.

Russia-West ties have slid to post-Cold War lows over the Ukrainian crisis, the war in Syria and other issues, most recently the poisoning of an ex-Russian spy in Britain that triggered an unprecedented diplomatic war.

Surkov, a longtime Putin aide who currently works as the presidential adviser on Ukraine, said "loneliness doesn't mean complete isolation," but added that its openness will be limited.

He is the epitome of the lesson on how to become worth a small fortune.

There’s got to be more to the Trump/Pruitt relationship.  Pruitt has been getting away with egregious malfeasance like he knows there won’t be any consequences.

I have no idea what is going on there but when Trump tweeted out that hollow battered wife defense of Scott Pruitt, I can only conclude Pruitt is as valuable to Trump as Michael Flynn was.

Finally some good news...the CBO is saying Trump's policies will trim the National Debt to $1 Trillion by 2020!  MAGA!!!

The Federal Deficit Will Hit $1 Trillion by 2020

Oh, wait, I guess I read that wrong...they're just talking about the Budget Deficit.

Quote

Spending will exceed revenue by $804 billion in the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, jumping from a projected $563 billion shortfall forecast in June, the non-partisan arm of Congress said in a report Monday. In fiscal 2019, the deficit will reach $981 billion, compared with an earlier projection of $689 billion.

Saw a conspiracy theory somewhere that Pruitt might be functioning as DOTUS' capo given the soundproofing of his office, sweeping for bugs in his office, etc.

 

CNN reporting FBI raided Cohen's office this morning.
