This thread is for ranting about Donald Trump. Serious discussion of dyslexia and other divergent learning, or exposition of Trump's ignorance about the matter, goes in Epiphanies.

Newsom was brought up by someone ranting about something Donald Trump said about him. He’s almost 60 years old which would have him a third grader in the 70’s. He’d have you believe his third grade teacher was using the term as a diagnosis at that time. That’s a stupid assertion.
I’m with Trump on this. Rant away, but Trump is merely over the target here.
This just in: CNN is reporting Senator Rand Paul, the chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, will not be voting for Senator Markwayne Mullin as the new DHS Secretary because of anger issues. In 2017, Rand Paul was attacked by one of his neighbors over a property dispute. Senator Paul was left with severe injuries that took some time to recover from. Senator Mullin, in reaction to that attack called Senator Paul a snake. Paul wanted Mullin to apologize for that remark during the hearing. Mullin refused.
I remember three years ago Mullin challenged the Teamster's CEO Sean O'Brian to a fight during a committee hearing. Senator Sanders had to gavel Mullin down reminding him he was a senator. Rand Paul showed that video during the current confirmation hearings.
Mullin claims to have military experience. He has none. While he is owner of several companies, he does not have a MBA.
Looking for this nomination to go down in flames. Would hate to be in the Senate Chambers when this happens.
Which is not what you were talking about in the post to which I replied. Stop moving the goal post.

Apparently, at the time, Mullins defended the attack on Paul by claiming(falsely) that duelling is still legal in some states.

He said it again today! Paul had to tell him it's been illegal for 170 years.
If this were trump acting on his own against his advisors, they would have pulled the 25th Amendment on him by now. Without diving into conspiracy theories, there has to be more to it than one idiot playing the mad dictator.

Funny thing is, if there's one guy in Congress I could believe supports duelling, it would be Rand Paul.
Somewhat related to that, apparently Mullin's original endorsement of the assault on Paul was a result of a previous squabble in which Mullin had refused to go along with some bill proposed by Paul to clamp down on "welfare fraud" in Minnesota.
It has been reported that Robert Mueller, former director of the FBI, has died.
In response, Trump has stated: "I'm glad he's dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!"
Good grief. Remember this when, in the years to come, Trump himself dies.
Just when you think he can't sink any lower, he does.
As I’ve said before, why anyone thinks he can’t sink any lower is beyond me.
I think it's because it just doesn't occur to me that someone would go lower, at least not in this day and age, in that office. (Or really in general.) Not about Trump specifically. Then when he does it, I'm astonished and horrified, but it tracks with his horribleness.
I’m not sure he recognises his personal attacks (even of the dead) as going lower. Somewhere along the line, he got the idea that they are a form of strength.

I’ve read a little about Mueller and in addition to his legal work, he served with the Marines in Vietnam. Trump’s view of him can’t come as any surprise.

That sounds like a great epitaph for Mr. Trump. Ps 109:8.

Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
When Margaret Thatcher died a lot of people bought a copy of the Munchkins from The Wizard of Oz singing "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" so that it got to No 1 in the music charts and the BBC played it in their chart show.
What might be the song when Mr Trump meets his maker?

Rather ironically Cameron was PM at the time and I suspect his death will provoke no such outpouring of joy despite him not being fit to tie her shoelaces. Being fit to tie Thatcher's shoelaces I hasten to add is a low bar to clear but I don't know that any of Cameron's successors as Tory leader have cleared it, except maybe May (it is a low bar).
Trump has extended the date after which he will bomb Iranian power stations. I suspect he will delay again when the next day is reached.
He says he has delayed because there are some good discussions to end the war. Iran is not saying the same
I don't believe there's anything motivating him re: this debacle with Iran other than The Epstein Files, The Midterm Elections, and the Zionist Evangelicals within MAGA.

I'm amazed that the markets jump to trump's tune every time he makes a toddler tantrum tweet. Can't they see that he changes his mind every five minutes, according to whether he feels things are going his way or not?

It's a game. They can read trump like a book, and once they have his simple mind decoded the rest is easy money.
I'm not so sure. Given Trump's ability to lose money running casinos, I would amend "making money" to "trying to make money".
Well someone is making very large and suspiciously well timed oil trades.
It may be that it's beyond even Trump's ability to mess that up. Though given the level of probity required to serve in Trump's inner circle Trump can't be the only suspect.

Respectfully, Gavin Newsom is the one who says he can’t read.

@Mr E ablism is a violation of C1, arguing with the Host is a violation of C6 - I am suspending you for two weeks,

Vile doesn't begin to describe him.
I can safely say that he has never failed to live down to my own bottomless expectations of him, and continues to do so.

Exactly what CM said: you think there couldn't be a "lower", but he manages to find one.

There are a number of ways of ending that.
the one I like is
"it shows you are not done losing to them."

Who do you reckon was his maker?
He says he has delayed because there are some good discussions to end the war. Iran is not saying the same
Here is a Fine Selection To Choose From.
I would add AIPAC money to that list.
Well ...
I never wonder if these guys are making money from whatever fuckery they're engaged in -- I'm sure of it.
It's a game. They can read trump like a book, and once they have his simple mind decoded the rest is easy money.

Illegal in terms of legislation or illegal in terms of there being any likelihood of those involved being held accountable?
