this is absolutely true. he's just sitting there, scowling. 

fuck him.

It's quite simple. Trump absolutely  can not stand it when the focus is not entirely about him. If all these people arent going to praise him, what's the point of him being there? I'm guessing he would be happier if the crowd was actually booing him, because at least the attention would be on Tariff Man.

He'd be ecstatic. It would give him the opportunity to open mock them.

Has to be a record for Flake standing his ground.  It's been 2 or 3 weeks at least.

It's gotta be weird for the Donald (and admittedly, I do feel a tad sad for him)...to know that he'll probably attend the funerals of both H.W. and Carter (not to mention two first ladies and a state funeral for McCain)...and see what it means for a nation to put aside bullshit to come together to mark the lives of remarkable leaders who gave their all to the Republic.  And even a sociopath like him has to know his grave will be danced upon and his casket will lie in State in the Capitol only due to formalities.  And like Franco in El Valle de Los Caidos, most will come by just to make sure he's still dead. 

I think it's cute that you think any of that is going through his mind.  He's just thinking about how pissed he is to be missing the Fox news coverage of the funeral.

Yeah, guys, do something productive. Stop complaining about the terrible person that runs the country that hates on everyone and everything that doesn't worship him. There is nothing you can do about it and it really isn't anyone's fault. No sense in talking about, just be glad it isn't worse. 

I would argue that criticizing the President’s behavior at the funeral of a President you probably didn’t even like is entirely nonproductive and won’t change a thing.

But, I guess if talking about it online is a release for you, then go for it.

I just heard that part of Simpson’s eulogy and thought the hate comment was good. Figured it’d be interesting to see what was going on here and boom, obsessing over POTUS.

Many CEO’s have sociopathic tendencies.  So what?  Trump has full blown narcissistic personality disorder.  I know you’re not a medical professional so let me help...that means if somebody complements him he CAN NOT RESIST returning favors/complements.  Do you see how that’s a big problem?  You can play him like a fiddle.  The Saudis/Russians/Norks have done just that.  So kindly STFU with your ‘what about’ bullshit.   

You’re not as smart as you think.

Gee, if complaining about his conduct his unproductive, how would you evaluate complaining about the complaining?  More or less productive?

Equally bad. There’s a pretty low to zero ROI on posting here. That’s why I check in only sparingly. Was mainly commenting on some of the usual suspects doing the same ole same ole. I’ll be heading out shortly.

Lobbyists representing the Saudi government reserved blocks of rooms at President Trump’s D.C. hotel within a month of Trump’s election in 2016 — paying for an estimated 500 nights at the luxury hotel in just three months, according to organizers of the trips and documents obtained by The Washington Post.

At the time, these lobbyists were reserving large numbers of D.C.-area hotel rooms as part of an unorthodox campaign that offered U.S. military veterans a free trip to Washington — then sent them to Capitol Hill to lobby against a law the Saudis opposed, according to veterans and organizers.

At first, Saudi lobbyists put the veterans up in Northern Virginia. Then, in December 2016, they switched most of their business to the Trump International Hotel in downtown Washington. In all, the lobbyists spent more than $270,000 to house six groups of visiting veterans at the Trump hotel, which Trump still owns.

Those bookings have fueled a pair of federal lawsuits alleging Trump violated the Constitution by taking improper payments from foreign governments.

During this period, records show, the average nightly rate at the hotel was $768. The lobbyists who ran the trips say they chose Trump’s hotel strictly because it offered a discount from that rate and had rooms available, not to curry favor with Trump.

doing the apostles creed, all the ex presidents are reading it respectfully off the paper. 

donald continues to scowl. cannot be bothered.

Someone warned him he would Raiders of the Lost Ark face melt if he uttered the Apostles Creed in church.

Or its likely that my theory that Trump is a Satanist is true and Trump rejects the Apostles Creed.

The scowl was Donald trying not to do this during the ceremony.

That is as far as Flake has to carry this as Dems take over the house then and will be able to subpoena Mueller and everyone else to testify in the house.

Then Flake can claim standing up to Trump to protect the investigation when he runs for President in 2020.

As usual, Trump has not even a drop of accidental eloquence about the Bush funeral, but instead comments about some good stuff he heard about it from Fox News. 

What an absolute empty suit.

The music in the background while President Trump came in and was seated at the funeral was Hymn to the Fallen from Saving Private Ryan, by John Williams. It's an emotional piece of music.

The bottom line is giving huge tax breaks to corporations and the uber wealthy is simple STUPID economically. SImply because the money multiplier effect is so much more muted than giving the same dollars to those that will send each and every last penny locally or in the US at the minimum.  

The reason that we did not get as hot an economy as soon after the crash of 2008 was that about half (from memory here) the stimulus was in the form of tax breaks for the wealthy.  the payroll tax break was taken away at Republican insistence raising taxes on the working class while preserving tax breaks for the weathy in I believe the second Obama budget agreement. The sad thing is had we poured the same about of borrowing into building a national high speed rail system (or a gazillion other things I can think of) the economic stimulus effect would have been much much larger.

stepping down of soap box now....
