Anyone who watched Trump today ...

[NanceGreggs]

… and believes he is a truthful, straightforward, intelligent, well-informed, competent man who understands world events, the economy, our role in the global community, and the responsibilities of his office, is as much of a fuckin’ moron as he is.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. Word, Nance!

[kentuck]

2. That was surreal !

I'm still trying to shake myself out of it.

[democratisphere]

3. 110% Agree.

Unfortunately we are surrounded by vast number of moronic RW idiots for which there is no hope. Ever.

[erronis]

4. And those that think dump is a real person are not paying attention. The PTB understand.

Maybe the PTB that are supporting this overthrow of the current democratic US government bother reading these posts.

But for the most part, they know what they are doing and screw the rest of us.

As for the deplorables, good-bye suckers.

[Stinky The Clown]

5. Amen!

[NightWatcher]

6. But don't forget, he was sent from god.

[yortsed snacilbuper]

8. god sent dubya too,

what the fuck is wrong with god?

[flibbitygiblets]

27. Why do none of the funda-mentals ever wonder why God keeps sending the most incompetent morons?

Maybe time to switch to a religion with a more reliable deity, just saying.

[Still In Wisconsin]

55. Apparently God has a weird sense of humor?

Other than that I'm not sure what it would be.

[pazzyanne]

18. No, he thinks he IS god.

What I saw was a man getting of on power of being in charge of the press conference who was being a real jerk. All of his negative personality traits were on full display. By the end of the conference I was expecting to see the men with white coats and a straight jacket helping him away from the podium. Disgusting POS!

[Turbineguy]

7. Has there been a fact check on all the stuff he spewed?

A lot sounded like he just pulled it out of his ass as he went.

[NanceGreggs]

11. Given how many lies ...

... he can pack into five minutes, it's going to take some time to fact-check 80 minutes worth of spew.

[bigbrother05]

50. The lie-o-meter was spinning so fast, time was slowing down

Was hoping a worm hole would appear and swallow him.

[GetRidOfThem]

54. This guy passed and went to the pearly gates...

...where he is greeted by Saint Pete. There are all these clocks, and some are fast, others not. The guy asked Saint Pete, "what is it with all those clocks?" St Pete answers "these are the clocks for each human. Every time somebody tells a lie, their clock jumps a minute." "Oh wow!" "And here is your clock, and look, it shows the right time" The guy gets curious. "Every human has one of those?" "Yup" "Well, does Donald Trump have one of those?" St. Pete smiled and said "what an insightful question. Yes, indeed he does, and the Good Lord is very excited about it. He came down the other day and asked for exactly that clock. Then he had it installed as his ceiling fan."

[FakeNoose]

29. Well that's all he ever does - he cannot follow a script

... he just makes it up as he goes along. And it's all garbage.

Even when they used to write speeches for him, he never could or would read them.
Nobody wastes any time writing them any more.

[rpannier]

31. Just better off calling out everything he says as a lie

It's ridiculous that people fact check the President of the U.S. over everything he says, no matter how inconsequential

[eleny]

9. A fair conclusion

[yortsed snacilbuper]

10. You can polish a turd all you want,

but you still have a turd!

[pazzyanne]

19. There was a much deeper pile than a simple turd present.

As squishy as that pile was, it couldn't be polished. Just take it out and spread it on an empty field.

[yellowdogintexas]

52. and poison the crop?

No, that would be bad, very baaaad

[JDC]

12. I'm not sure I've ever read the F word in your posts

Carries more weight that way IMO. On point.

K/R

[NanceGreggs]

13. You obviously haven't read a lot of my posts.

I use the F-word rather liberally - both in my posts and in my day-to-day life.

[Gothmog]

14. I watched but it was clear that trump was lying and delusional

[Permanut]

15. truthful, straightforward, intelligent, well-informed, competent,..

and also morally upright (no, I didn't say erect), a good Christian man, a strong supporter of family values, and a patriot.

I just watched the Jim Jones special again a couple days ago; Jones was an amateur compared to Mango Mussolini.

[TNNurse]

16. Can he speak without lying??

Not a rhetorical question.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

24. No, he is incapable of telling the truth.

David Caye Johnston, the author, has said on multiple occasions that trmp is not able to tell the truth or the difference between his lies and the truth. He believes what he says as being factual. This is what all of those mental health care professionals were trying to tell us a while back with their report on trmp's mental state.

[Wounded Bear]

17. Too many voters said they didn't want someone with all those qualities...

and that's what we got. A razor thin 'majority' of voters in three states screwed the rest of us.

[spanone]

20. there is something seriously wrong with the man.

twisted. dangerous.

demented.

[ismnotwasm]

21. True

And the country is full of them, unfortunately

[lordsummerisle]

22. Cecile Richards was on All In with Chris Hayes tonight

He started to ask her about watching Trump when she replied,
"I don't watch the president". I couldn't agree more. I can barely even watch the brief news recaps of him.

I put the TV on local news at 5 pm to catch up on the floods in South Carolina and saw he was giving a press
conference and nearly barfed up the drink I just poured...

[Scurrilous]

23. K&R

[OMGWTF]

25. Two out of three Trump supporters are as big a fidiot as the other third.

[JohnnyLib2]

26. Among other things, there was a real manic quality to that show--

expansive, grandiose ("NYT is going to endorse me&quot , rushed, oddly cheery at times. Certainly not sluggish this time around. Wheeeee!

[Frustratedlady]

28. I couldn't watch it all, but what I did see was pretty amazing...

Such a perfectly intelligent and incredible man. Just ask him. Gag!

[lordsummerisle]

30. k&r n/t

[BigmanPigman]

32. I had the same impression as those who were in the UN audience.

I had to make sure I had the news on and not the Comedy Central channel. Then I purposely switched stations as I always do for GOP presidents. It is a practice that works best for me.

[Snackshack]

33. True.

Further more. The republicans saw this today as well and no one in that party is saying anything about the mental/moral state of the person in the executive office...

Trump is clearly unfit for the office but he was just as unfit as a candidate for the office as he is as president.

The Republican Party needs to be held accountable for this, their continued existence as a political party needs to be seriously questioned. They have willingly violated their oath of office in their complicity to trump in order to have control. They cannot be trusted with the power they control and need to be voted out.

[iluvtennis]

34. Just a lying, inept POS. The press conference was more evidence to invoke the 25th Amendment.

[Pepsidog]

35. After about 3 minutes I couldn't take it anymore and turned the tv off. He is literally the King

with no clothes but he still doesn’t realize he is naked and everyone is laughing at him. And those who aren’t laughing and think he is smart are delusional, ignorant fucking morons.

[SammyWinstonJack]

36. No doubt!

[Rorey]

37. Well said. NT

[Silver Gaia]

38. Amen, sister!

[njhoneybadger]

39. But Nance everyone I work with and most of my family

Depends on somebody from Fox News or hate radio to tell them what tRump has said. They can't think for themselves it upsets them, they look for someone tell them what they want to believe.

[George II]

40. Short, sweet, and to the point!

[mountain grammy]

41. Even though I haven't watched I'll K&R cause I know you're right.

I have to sleep, I don’t have to watch. Thanks for doing that.

[apkhgp]

42. From your mouth to God's ear

And then the whole congregation in this country can march into the voting booth and vote Democrat. Praise the Lord.

[proglib217]

43. I saw he was on

As is my custom, I made a point of not watching him. Just his body English gives me the heebie jeebies. <shudders>

I detest him. Loathe him. Hate his fucking guts. I never thought I'd see the day we'd have a president I would hate more than Nixon. Or Reagan. This asshole makes those guys look like the second coming.

[LuckyCharms]

45. I'm not even sure what to say about his press conference today.

At first I was angry, now I'm depressed. It was one of his worst, if not the worst, performances.

He's all of the most terrible pricks that you ever knew in your life, all rolled into one.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

46. the whole world is laughing

I couldn't watch. Haven't watched or heard that thing in our White House since the other day of infamy. Someone on DU was nice enough to post a link to a transcript --
https://www.vox.com/2018/9/26/17907608/trump-kavanaugh-rosenstein-press-conference-un-nafta-full-text-transcript

I'm working my way through that. It requires lots of breaks. Those of you who watched the thing live have my sympathies and respect. I couldn't bear 80 minutes of Putin's Rump farting into a microphone.

[disndat]

49. Just before I grabbed my remote

I thought I heard him say the UN audience was laughing with him, not against him. Typical big fat lie he was indulging in
from the start of that lying press conference.

[Honeycombe8]

47. They don't CARE. He's just a suit that they can manipulate for their ends.Like Reagan in 2nd term.nt

[dajoki]

48. Agreed!!

[KPN]

51. Anyone who watched Trump today (yesterday)

also ought to be frightened. This moron is a madman. Unless and until he is removed, we are pretty much counting on a few military leaders to save us from this moron’s worst narcisisstic impulses. That’s a scary thought.

[Glaisne]

53. Either that

or batshit insane! Which is true for most Trumpist crazies.
