1. His fucking "bone spurs" were Obama's fault too.

Also, Melanoma's "kidneys."

16. Thanks Obama!

While this is just a meme to poke at blaming Obama for everything. . .

I really hope Obama did this--Make that fucking traitor's life unpleasant.

2. It's not Obama's fault that you don't know how to change the digital controls, Spanky.

10. The digital controls are still in their boxes

For Trump, they installed a classic Honeywell Cadet round mechanical thermostat.

3. The real problems are his chilling presence

And the hot air from his word hole.

4. Trump probably fired all the WH maintenance people.

Or made them want to quit or retire.

Now there's no one there who knows how anything works.

5. Report: Trump team baffled by White House light switches

I remembered this news story during the early days of the Trump administration.

The people who want to build a wall between the United States and Mexico can't figure out how to turn on the lights at the White House, according to the New York Times.

"Aides confer in the dark because they cannot figure out how to operate the light switches in the cabinet room," the Times reported Sunday. "Visitors conclude their meetings and then wander around, testing doorknobs until finding one that leads to an exit."

7. I remember hearing ...

It took him a while to figure out how the White House phones worked.
That might explain his reliance on his smart phone. Even though all
his security people advise against it.

6. Maybe if his skin wasn't so thin...

8. This is a weak one. The renovations were approved during 2016.

12. Sounds familiar.

I'm pretty sure there was some scandalous expense in 2009 in the WH, drapes or furniture or a room remodel or something that was (a) expensive and (b) tone deaf with the economics of 2009.

(R) had a field day.

It was approved under Bush II, things were ordered and expensed, all that remained was delivery and installation.

Take-away: (R) critics were stoopid for making such a simple mistake.

9. Try turning it up or down Donnie

I know it's hard, but you can do it!

11. I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE THIS PIECE OF SHIT.

[A HERETIC I AM]

14. Welcome to the club.

There is over 100 million members.

[JDC]

13. Probably tried to short change the HVAC contractor

[treestar]

15. Not seeing the Obama blame

[Miles Archer]

18. I'm assuming Zeke Miller simply didn't share the context in his tweet

He's a reporter...when I post something like that, I "mouse over" the profile to see who's posting it. So I took at as he was told something and shared the essence, without the backstory.

19. Zeke Miller, AP reporter. The AP has become, shall we say, less than objective.

Listening to the AP news on satellite radio, they are really right of center. Very subtly skewing stories to favor the right. Not FOX, but FOX-lite.

[onenote]

20. The ac renovation was approved in 2016

Presumably that's the basis.

17. Thanks, Obama!

22. LOL

21. Out of touch with reality
