Probably the most ludicrous comment being made by republicans

" He isn't a politician. It's mean to be commenting on him now. Give him time to learn. Wait at least a year before commenting on his performance. To be fair we should wait at least four years"



WTF!!!

Why don't we just use the guy at McDonald's drive through window next time?

Run for President of the United States- No knowledge or experience in anything required!

Oh yeah - and WHERE WAS THIS GENEROUS PATIENT ATTITUDE WHEN PRESIDENT OBAMA WAS IN OFFICE?

to run for Gov of NY. At least Reagan and Bush had been govenors for 4 years.

The Pres of US is careening around corners on a tricycle w extra training wheels in diapers. Unfortunately, so are most of his staff. He didn't even have the smarts to get good people around him, although he has upgraded recently with the generals.

I think they will just keep demoting or making Bannon be irrelevant until he goes. They don't want to fire him. The extreme RW is already pissed.

"Bah, this brain surgeon has only been in the field for three years, I don't really want to put this patient's head in his hands... I know, let's get a lawyer to do the surgery instead, he'll have time to learn!"

for President Poopy Pants. I taught Kindergarten for 38 years and I swear this kind of talk reminds me so much of conference time when I spoke with the parents of "not quite ready for school" four and a half year olds.

We are going to load you and your family and friends in the back of an 18 wheeler. There is no escape from the back & you are locked in. Someone's granny who has never even been in an 18 wheeler before will be driving the truck with you and everyone you love in the back over a tricky mountain pass. Sure hope you make it dumbass. Enjoy your trip!

12. Republicans have been this way since ..well the GOP was established

Republicans have that special gene bred into them that causes them to be so obnoxious and nothing anyone can do to change that.
After living in a Red State,Red County and Red Township for over 40 years, can anyone truly understand what I mean by that.

The guy is crazy and incompetent and mean. He's a dick. He's gonna get us in a world war because he is such a dumb ass.

Fuck giving him time to do anything else. Impeach ASAP.

As to Obama, he didn't need a 'shakedown' cruise because he was COMPETENT from the get-go.

Sadly, Clinton would have been, as well.

Trump?

Well...we're FUCKED.

One day it's he will do so great because he isn't a politician. The next day they make the excuse he screws everything up because he isn't one.
