Inaugural day Bad Lip Reading is the break from news about Donald Trump that we all need today.
The only problem with Bad Lip Reading taking on Donald Trump is that the crazy things they make him say are almost saner than the ACTUAL things that he says on his own.
O/T He is being very sneaky about paying for this wall, too complicated for us to understand, like his tax returns. We all know the Mexicans aren’t going to pay for it, where will the $$ come from?
My bet is our social security and medicare payments, then they can say let’s do away with them because they are bankrupt. =========================
Dems, Make Trump Own His Wall Humiliation
.....Trump is all about dominance politics and humiliation.
Journalists may feel the need to go through the motions of pretending or asking the President how he plans to get Mexico to pay for his Wall. But this is clearly nonsense. Mexico is never going to pay for his Wall. That's obvious. As any businessperson knows, the promise and commitment you get at the beginning is always the most solid one you'll ever get. Your leverage only goes down. Mexico will never pay for the wall. And the initial cost estimates are almost certainly low. This will be tens of billions of dollars for Trump's ego trip. You will pay. Mexico will laugh.
The 'Mexico will pay' song and dance was always about dominance and power, not budgetary savings. Democrats should confront it on those terms. The precise dollar amount isn't the point. After all the promises about his strongman power, how Trump bends the weak to his will, Trump got owned and now is sticking tax payers with the cost of his nonsensical promises about how we're just 'fronting' the money. He got owned. He lied. And now he's resorting to the same 'oh you'll get paid later' flimflam he's used to rip off countless investors over the years.
No less important, every Republican in Congress is going to give this the green light, forcing American taxpayers to pay for the Wall themselves. Democrats should hammer this point too: they're trying to clean up Trump's mess with your money!
Trump can't be mocked. It takes him apart like. The Wall was always about Trump's dominance politics brand. Democrats should hit on that front. Don't even get into an argument over the nonsense about making Mexico pay on lay away. That's nonsense. Everybody knows it. Insisting on this obvious fact to Trump's face will just drive him harder into more bluster and nonsensical argument, insisting on the truth of what is palpably ridiculous. It's brand-defeating. It's a gift for the Democrats. Please open it

Mexico stunned by Trump tweet on canceling trip The Associated Press
MEXICO CITY (AP) The Mexican government had no immediate reaction to a tweet by U.S. President Donald Trump that appeared aimed at canceling a planned Jan. 31 meeting with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.
Trump tweeted Thursday that "If Mexico is unwilling to pay for the badly needed wall, then it would be better to cancel the upcoming meeting" in Washington D.C.
Mexican officials said there was no immediate reaction to Trump's tweet. Officials said Wednesday Mexico was "considering" canceling.
Former foreign relations secretary Jorge Castaneda told local media "Pena Nieto has no other choice but to say 'I'm not going.'"
Finance Secretary Jose Antonio Meade told Grupo Formula radio that "I think that, in general, diplomacy is not conducted via Twitter."
Trump: Well if you're not going to pay for the wall, you might as well not come.
Peña: Fine. Then I won't.
Trump says he is planning on slapping a 20% import fee on goods to pay for the wall. This proves Trump knows less than diddly squat about economics. Orange buffoon is going to start the next Great Depression with his fucking tweets.
$20000 to her AK attornies for personal services not PAC related!!!!! Sounds like typical Palin, let others pay for their lifestyle! Hello IRS tax fraud line!
Let's all remember a little ditty that was circulated pretty wildly under the radar. Over 6 years ago Kate gosselin was forced to leave Alaska when Todd palin threatened to call cps on her. Tlc talked him down and they left and bullshitted a story. It does make sense knowing Kate's problems and todds protective side. And he did keep himself distant from her.
Thought I'd share that memory when I was causally discussing Kate this morning.
Below is a list of government agencies on Twitter using alternate (non-government accounts) for sharing facts they aren't allowed to any more on official government Twitter accounts:
*The following is an opinion column by R Muse*READ THIS "If any American is unsure of what kind of government is running the country, it is no longer ridiculous rhetoric to say the country is under a FASCIST Republican regime with an authoritarian strongman/dictator driving the agenda."
I think there is no doubt that the 45th president thinks he is dictator-in-chief and, at this point, the Republican Congress seems to be in full agreement with him. Beaglemom

The White House failed to consult with many of the agencies and lawmakers who will be critical for their success.
President Donald Trump’s team made little effort to consult with federal agency lawyers or lawmakers as they churned out executive actions this week, stoking fears the White House is creating the appearance of real momentum with flawed orders that might be unworkable, unenforceable or even illegal.
The White House didn’t ask State Department experts to review Trump’s memorandum on the Keystone XL pipeline, even though the company that wants to build the pipeline is suing the U.S. for $15 billion, according to two people familiar with the matter......

Basically:

Appointing Omarosa is the least of our worries, read these:
DeleteHalley nomination: want to call in the 4 senators that voted against Haley and “teaching them a thing or two”
Voter fraud: only blue states
Healtcare: he has no idea how to fix Obamacare and still doesn’t know what a high risk pool is
Chicago: dead serious about sending in the National Guard.
Wikileaks: thinks they are on his side and wants to leak them directly to corner his opponents.
Wall: no plan, no idea on how to deal with terrain.
Abortion: doesn’t give a crap about it, “It doesn’t affect me, so why should I care if it exists”
VP: has been swearing in nominees, don’t want picture with trump and want distance from him
