Though to be fair, if he thought Misery was great there are many more stories set in a more realistic world like that of Misery than in the fantastical like It.

Check out Gerald's Game, Leeds. It's one of my favorite recommendations for those who don't like the supernatural.

Yeah he is insane. That “Charity” bought all sorts of hideous stuff for Trump professionally and personally. In fact I see little evidence it isn’t all just “fees”.

Clearly the charity was able to be a significant cash flow device for Trump’s fake portrayal of being a billionaire over decades.

I figured Trump was mashing buttons this morning, then he used politic as a verb and I realized Scavino was doing the tweeting.

On Wednesday, President Donald Trump declared victory in Syria and announced plans to withdraw U.S. troops which had been protecting civilians from incursions by Russian and Turkish troops and ISIS fighters.

While Trump has declared his mission accomplished, a retired general who fought ISIS in neighboring Iraq said there’s no truth to that claim.

Gen. Mark Hertling went on CNN Wednesday and said that the plan made no sense and appears to be “transactional” arrangement with Russia and the Turks.

“The Pentagon puts the number of ISIS fighters in Iraq and Syria at 30,000,” said CNN anchor Jim Sciutto “How can the president claim today that ISIS is defeated in Syria?”

“He can’t, truthfully,” said Hertling. “This was very surprising to me—not only the announcement but the timing. I don’t understand why it is happening now. The U.S. Forces have just started an offensive with the Syrian defense forces and the Kurds against the town of Hajin, which is considered an ISIS stronghold… You’re talking about making both the Russians, the Syrian Bashar Al Assad, the Iranians and the Turks very happy about this move because the Kurdish forces are going to see this as us turning against them one more time.”

Hertling said that the only argument that makes sense to him is that this is a transaction between Trump and foreign powers.

He literally walks back his entire argument in a subtweet, but he just couldn't help himself from tweeting when an opportunity to defend Tucker presented itself.

So the MAGA morons have set up a go fund me to build the wall. The thinking is that if each person that voted for Trump donates $82, the wall will be paid for. Imagine that. They went from saying Mexico will pay for the wall to opening giving money. No wonder Trump grifts off them.
