So the fucker was actually gorging on his two scoops as the airstrikes hit.

President Donald J. Trump dined on meatloaf and ice cream as news broke that the U.S. struck and killed Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani in Iraq. We’ve now learned that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, among others, joined the president at his Mar-a-Lago club while the world digested the possibility of a potential impetus to World War III.

Count on it.

The Senate MUST remove him before the election.

Every Democratic Senator will vote for removal, so it will take only a handful of Republicans to locate their spines to bring it about.

There is also a line of thinking that if Moscow Mitch fears losing his Senate majority (which means more to him than the potus) he will do triage and cut Trump loose.

And Republican senators are more loyal to their constituents than they are to McConnell. As long as Trump's base backs Trump, those senators aren't going to break ranks. Doing so would cost them their jobs, and they aren't willing to do that.

Rump really, really respects and admires this psycho, and surely wants Gallagher to think well of him who would be surprised

I was starting to be convinced when I noticed Jarvanka.s efforts to act like humans, but now, I'm pretty sure.

Seriously, there are clues that their programming is messed up.
Ivanka and Melanie oft make statements that don't match the occasion, like Melania saying the other day that her New Year's resolution was "Peace on Earth", which is not a resolution. Then she smiled and just stared into middle space till the camera left.

Rudy's programming is weird but kinda comical, and gotta admit Barr is a good villain
But that Graham one, he keeps saying things that are the opposite things he said previously, esp. about trump.

Their chips are malfunctioning, obviously.

America has sunk so low on the mediocre scale that being mean is taken as a sign of strength.
