Buzz Aldrin listening to Donald Trump trying to sound smart about space exploration represents us all.

Courtesy of HuffPo:

Trump’s remarks began with the president’s usual boasting:

“We’re going to lead again like we never led before.” But he then appeared to claim all of space for the U.S., calling it the “next great American frontier.” 

Trump also referred to space “providing the security that we need to protect the American people.” And he sent Aldrin’s eyebrows shooting up when he added, inexplicably, “At some point in the future, we’re going to look back and say, ‘How did we do it without space?’” 

“We know what this is, space. That’s all it has to say: space,” Trump said as he prepared to sign his executive order. He then turned to Aldrin and asked, “There’s a lot of room out there, right?” 

“To infinity, and beyond,” Aldrin quipped as others laughed. 

But Trump apparently didn’t get the reference to Buzz Lightyear’s catchphrase in “Toy Story.” “This is infinity here. It could be infinity,” Trump answered in a rambling response. “We don’t really don’t know. But it could be. It has to be something — but it could be infinity, right?”

Jesus!

One of the first two humans to land on the moon, and the second to walk on it, and now he is reduced to standing next to a tangerine colored moron spewing stupid into a microphone.

Oh the humanity.

    To Welcome Trump, Poland Taps Old Communist Party Playbook

    Back when Poland was part of the Soviet bloc, the Communist Party would bus people into Warsaw from the provinces to ensure there was a compliant crowd to welcome high-level visitors from Moscow.

    Now with President Donald Trump heading to Poland this week for a day-long state visit, the country's right-wing government is tapping the old playbook.

    "Every deputy from PiS [the Law and Justice Party] is allowed to invite 50 people to Trump's Thursday appearance in Warsaw and the party will pay for the bus," Joachim Brudzinski, vice-marshal of the Polish parliament, said in amessage to party members.

    Michal Kobosko of the Atlantic Council, a longtime observer of Polish politics, said the ruling Law and Justice party is pulling out all the stops to make sure the Trump visit is a success — though this particular tactic is not without irony, given party leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski was an anti-communist dissident...

    Trump is exceptionally stupid. Emotionally, he's retarded. He is the face of those who voted for him ... limited and gullible rubes.
    They believe he is going to make things 'all better' for them. Clueless fools. Some of them think coal is coming back.

    We have such a stupid potus. I really have begun to think that he has a mental problem and needs to be impeached.

    I fear for our country which has already begun going downhill (and in such a 'short' time under Trump's dictatorship!).

    Contact all your Republican Senators and Representatives from your state and let them know how you feel about Trump and them!

    They need and want your vote to stay in power and we are the ones that decide whether or not they work for 'us'.

    We know Trump claims there's fake news. How about his twitter followers?

    Are trump followers fake?
    ● 5 million followers in just a few days and that nearly half are “fake” —

    ● “In my expert opinion, something strange is going on,”


    Washington Post:
    ‘Something fishy’ is going on with Trump’s Twitter account, researchers say

    Reports have zinged around the Internet this week about a sudden and mysterious surge in President Trump’s Twitter following, along with dark musings that something nefarious may be afoot.

    The wildest of these claims — including the suggestion that Trump had gained up to 5 million followers in just a few days and that nearly half are “fake” — are clearly overblown, analysts say. But several researchers who study social media have also reached the conclusion that something fishy may be going on with Trump’s account.

    That something fishy may involve the mass creation of “bots,” a catch-all term for accounts that are automated, meaning a single individual or a team can run hundreds or thousands at time. This is something Trump’s supporters have a history of doing well, far better than his political opponents, according to work by several researchers.

    “In my expert opinion, something strange is going on,” said  Samuel C. Woolley, research director for the Computational Propaganda project at Oxford University. “It’s consistent with other strange things that have gone on before with this politician’s Twitter feed.”...

    ....At the news conference a reporter asked Christie if he got sun today. “I didn’t,” he replied. “I didn’t get any sun today.” His spokesman later tried to valiantly explain that lie when he was told about the aerial photographs: “Yes, the governor was on the beach briefly today talking to his wife and family before heading into the office. He did not get any sun. He had a baseball hat on.”

    1. And what does he say to all of the peons that complain about it? "They're not the governor."

      His approval rating was 15%. Most assuredly lower now. He's a lame duck so probably doesn't give a shit about appearances or his approval ratings.

      He says it's not like it was a secret that he was going to spend the 4th at the governor's mansion on this beach. What is an affront to everyone is that he closed the beach due to the budget deadlock, but he and his family still went there. So essentially he created his own private beach for the holidays.

      I'd like to see a lot of New Jersians invade that beach tomorrow.

    So often Trump's remarks are cringe worthy. I think he must believe his lies that he has the best words and is the smartest because he obviously does not ask for help from experts nor prepare well thought out remarks.

    Although our citizens have varying educational backgrounds it baffles me that people wanted him as our elected leader even if he in some ways represents them. Trump did cheat by verbally lying and bashing Clinton demonizing her as he does the press.
    Trump is a master of smears, degradation and humiliation pathological liar who will not stop even after he wins.

    I watched that clip twice. The first time looking at Buzz Andrin's facial expressions - priceless. Those early astronauts had more smarts & courage than Trump has in his pinky- pinky finger.

    The next time I watched the clip I watched Pence's face and he looks like a Stepford Wives with a smirk of adoration for that POS Trump. I question the mental health of the POTUS and the VPOTUS.

      I find it curiously interesting that the Koch brothers have invested in renewable energy projects. Are they hedging their bets? After convincing the GOP in Congress (probably not hard to do) that climate change is imaginary, the Kochs went and invested in solar and wind. Just in case, I guess.

      In general, I cannot fathom why so many billionaires hate the rest of humanity so much. What have we done to harm them? Other than simply being alive. Don't they need lesser mortals around to do all of the work and pay the taxes they do their best to avoid? One of the brothers once ran for public office as a libertarian, did very poorly and, since that time, they've gone underground to do their worst. Such cowards.
