Bannon is a notorious hothead so he surely isn't taking this public shaming lying down .....on his back..... with his legs over his head.

5 dems voted yea dog lol wat?

I go away for a few hours and I come back to THAT!?

Not for anything but I assume that's how 100% of Wall Street talks and about 50% of people in business behind closed doors.

Dude the head of the ****ing Boy Scouts had to apologize for the President of the United States of America.

Bannon is the top trend on twitter and the Mooch is in the top five. This definitely breaks through.

A "problem" with this board, even though there are gradations of knowledge, is that it's read by people who follow politics closely. Most people don't. I couldn't name 5 top MLB pitchers or which teams are good this year, but there are many people who could recite MLB stats from memory. In fact, I justify wasting time with politics by avoiding sports and because, you know, it's actually important and it's an avenue into many other issues--law, history, sociology, demography, psychology, international relations, etc. However, most of US politics does not break through to the general public, except the occasional story. In this instance, maybe 5% of adults could give a general account of what a "skinny repeal" is, but probably 50% will note the crazy **** coming out of the WH and recognize it's a sign of real dysfunction.

The devolution of social norms is amazing. Imagine how historical debates would go down nowadays.

"You sir, are no Jack Kennedy, sitting over there sucking your own cock"

The Mooch is definitely just using a form of high Wall Street/Finance talk, but somehow it doesn't translate so well to Washington or, dare I say, middle America.

I saw some journalist tweet that Mooch has always talked like that to business reporters and, essentially, assumes they will clean it up. He's not used to dealing with Washington and reporters who also went to Harvard or similar and are highly accomplished in their field, have self-respect, and don't need to kiss the ring. There's a reason most politicians talk too carefully (see, e.g., Obama, Clinton), because it can be a real **** show when one doesn't.

Trump has got to love this. With the Mooch as his mouthpiece he can finally let loose like he really wants to. Who knows but at this very moment he is looking over at Bannon and snickering, "**** you, you self-**********."

Scaramucci call w Lizza appears to have happened after Trump dinner w Fox folks. Dinner was an anti-Priebus Petri dish, per ppl briefed.

Oops, another leak, better call the FBI.

(Last night Trump and Mooch had dinner with Hannity and Bill Shine, the guy who Hannity said he would basically quit over if fired...who was then fired for enabling the harassment at Fox.)

Tony Baloney backtracking on twitter, guess the blow wore off.

HEY GUYS, WE HAVE A DICTATOR IN OFFICE SURROUNDED BY DOZENS OF OLIGARCHS HOLDING ILLEGITIMATE RUSSIAN MONEY AND GOP IS PASSING LOTS OF LAWS TO MAKE IT EASIER TO DO AND HARDER TO GET CAUGHT. LOOKING LIKE IT'S LIKELY IN THE TRILLIONS. WATCH THE BROWDER HEARING OR RACHEL MADDOW IN AN HOUR.

But Bannon sucking his own cock is also a violation.

Ben Stiller must be happy that he'll have a role to play in the Trump: MAGA movie.

But seriously wtf at that interview. They must have been waiting to bring this guy out for when they really needed to distract us from **** getting serious.

Alot of NYC Italians without Penn State ties think JoePa was a saint unjustly railroaded.

At this point a dumpster fire would be a huge improvement.

I never imagined it would be this bad 6 months ago.

Don't forget we're only 6 months into this thing. Wait until you see the people he starts rolling out in like month 31.

I wonder if his kids read the New Yorker.

This can't be real

This has to be a multi-season HBO series. 6 months in, plus the campaign has enough material for like 2 seasons.

Today Trump hit a new record low approval / record high disapproval, 41/59 In Rasmussen. I mean Trump's approval fall is very very slow, but its real, and it's steady. Senators are finally passing actual legislation to rebuke him (Russia Sanctions Bill w/ veto-roof majority) and are introducing bills to rebuke him (Lindsey Graham's bill to stop him from firing Mueller). My faith in our institutions is a a little little bit restored, I don't think he's going to finish his term, one way or the other.

Also, its truly amazing that he has numbers this bad given that we are at the height of one of the longest economic recoveries/boons in our nations history right now. If that takes a turn for the worse (and it has to eventually) and we slip into some kind of recession, even though he will have no more to do with that than the current boom, he will be ****ed.

If one of my staff said that to a colleague they would be immediately terminated.

Judiciary Committee Republicans want a second special counsel: report

I'm going in blind but in addition to those 2 points, it's not even actual paper. It's like a clip-art/photoshop background.

Sanctions on Trump's desk to sign. Let's see where his loyalties will stand.

The Don Jr meeting was a significant discovery and no doubt a serious blow against the Trump team. Ever since the participants were called in front of committees the WH started getting crazy. Today's testimony was a bombshell (but may not get much MSM coverage because it was TOO revealing) and today's WH scandal(s) was the most smoky its ever been.

Huckabeast's anomaly is what made me look behind the curtain at today's hearing. She was actually mad that no reporters brought up Russia at the briefing today. Then, unprompted, she went out of her way to claim victory from the information revealed. If that's not a huge red flag, what is?
