Trump Administration

One of the more nauseating aspects of the Trump presidency is the media attention focused on his two idiot sons, Uday and Qusay, or, more accurately, Donald Jr. and Eric. Raised to be Trump’s successors in his gilded outhouse of a “business empire,” they have succeeded in faithfully echoing and doubling down on their father’s virulent, racist stupidity, and, again like their father, have not — yet — publicly shit their britches in public. Hey, credit where credit’s due, right? Well, the Moron Twins decided to start the weekend off with a bang. Junior led off the weekend festivities on Saturday, reposting a vile little concoction on Instagram labeling Joe Biden as a pedophile. Lots in our story on all that Trump is hurling at Biden—including a wave of F’book ads painting him as senile—and the president’s son is now suggesting the former VP is a pedophile >>https://t.co/Kv570T5tVo pic.twitter.com/H33RrlOIdV — Jonathan Martin (@jmartNYT) May 16, 2020 Predictably, Idiot #1 came back crying that he had been misunderstood, and all of the “LOL” emojis should have clearly indicated to anyone that he was merely joshing around. 1. The 3 🤣 emojis in the caption should indicate to anyone with a scintilla of common sense that I’m joking around. 2. If the media doesn’t want people mocking & making jokes about how creepy Joe is, then maybe he should stop the unwanted touching & keep his hands to himself? https://t.co/Jy98aq6yWD pic.twitter.com/Kcr9jdPSbC — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) May 16, 2020 Because labeling someone a pedophile is ALWAYS good for a laugh, right, Uday? He them came back with a four-pack of pictures of Biden indulging in “unwanted touching” of various children, at least one of which I’m 90% sure is Photoshopped. We’re all aware that Grandpa Biden likes to smooch and nuzzle kids, and, as every grandparent will tell you, sometimes the kids go, “Ewww, Grandpa!” Did Biden go a little far at times? Sure he did. Does Biden owe Uday a fist in his fat mouth for using that as a platform to pole-vault an outlandish, libelous accusation of pedophilia? In my view, absolutely. (For the record, I also believe that Bill Clinton should have whipped Rush Limbaugh’s ass for calling his daughter Chelsea the “White House dog.”) Biden spokesperson Andrew Bates responded: No repulsive, manipulative tactic will change the subject from how almost 90,000 Americans have paid for Donald Trump’s coronavirus negligence with their lives and how the booming economy he inherited from the Obama-Biden administration is now suffering from depression-level job losses. I appreciate the counterattack, but I would have liked to have seen Bates respond more directly, with a flat denial and an offer to come over and crunch Uday’s teeth…wait, that one would be more my style than the style of a presidential campaign, and now we all know why Biden didn’t hire me as a campaign spokesperson. Biden has flatly denied Tara Reade’s garbage claims of him mauling her in a Senate office hallway, and Reade’s story continues to collapse around her. But don’t think that will stop the Trump campaign’s relentless attempts to paint Biden as guilty of the same offenses Trump has committed. Younger and, if possible, stupider brother Qusay decided, as he always does, to try to keep up with his big brother. He ran to Jeanne […]

One of the problems with incompetent authoritarianism is that it doesn't "get" irony. At all. Ever. https://twitter.com/SecPompeo/status/1262376762094256128 It appears that Trump Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who successfully lobbied Trump to fire the State Department's inspector...
