The beast in the White House. Flailing. Failing. Eyes red. Hands small.

Trump tweeted about this earlier and within minutes Nikki Haley and Tom Cotton tweeted in support of Trump, like lapdogs called by their master.

What’s that supposed to mean?

I will try it next time I end up in NYC. I don’t know if Streets of NY here in Phoenix counts, or Grimaldi’s which is a brick oven pizzeria that originated in Brooklyn. I think my main memory of ny style pizza is whatever the hell Pizza Hut did at one time, and I hope that was NOT indicative of the type. :)

Arizona down to 59,000.

So off went the Emperor in procession under his splendid canopy. Everyone in the streets and the windows said, “Oh, how fine are the Emperor’s new clothes! Don’t they fit him to perfection? And see his long train!” Nobody would confess that he couldn’t see anything, for that would prove him either unfit for his position, or a fool. No costume the Emperor had worn before was ever such a complete success.

“But he hasn’t got anything on,” a little child said.

“Did you ever hear such innocent prattle?” said its father. And one person whispered to another what the child had said, “He hasn’t anything on. A child says he hasn’t anything on.”

“But he hasn’t got anything on!” the whole town cried out at last.

The Emperor shivered, for he suspected they were right. But he thought, “This procession has got to go on.” So he walked more proudly than ever, as his noblemen held high the train that wasn’t there at all.

Does not compute.

4184

Aw HELL no!

4185

Yeah :) Streets of NY claims to be NY style, and I like their pizza when we used to go for lunch all the time when I worked in an office, but I don’t even know if that counts. So I guess I need to make a trip to NYC for science.

Again, Like button desperately needed.

Someone needs to dig up that awesome Twitter thread @scottagibson shared by a Kenyan political reporter covering the US election in the paternalistic fashion of how Anglo/Euro media covers African elections.

There was a NOT missing in there :)

Who is the borg gonna follow now? Fox or trump?

Gotta be trump, right? But, honestly, no idea.

4191

That Trump partiers who expect to run for president down the line should call out DJT’s traitorous bilge. But they won’t.

4192

Brian is going to get angry! Epic level trollling.

4193

Holy shit! A “Modern Problems” reference?!

4194

Yes, and I am very relieved about that.

I suspect that we will soon have a split where people like my (very red) neighbors watch Fox, but up jumps Trump Media which continues the fight for years to come. And given Trump’s personal connection with a chunk of the population, that threat is big enough to threaten any Republican office holder with who has any rationality. While very possibly inciting worse things.
