Republican Senator Susan Collins and Democratic Senator Jack Reed. |
After Reed praises Collins’s leadership of the hearing, she laments the administration’s handling of spending.
“I swear, [the Office of Management and Budget] just went through and whenever there was ‘grant,’ they just X it out,” Collins says. “With no measurement, no thinking about it, no metrics, no nothing. It’s just incredibly irresponsible.”
“Yes,” Reed replies. “I think — I think he’s crazy,” apparently referring to the president. “I mean, I don’t say that lightly and as a kind of a goofy guy.” “I’m worried,” Collins replies.
“Oof,” Reed continues. “You know, this thing — if we don’t get a budget deal, we’re going to be paralyzed.”
“I know,” Collins replies.
“[Department of Defense] is going to be paralyzed, everybody is going to be paralyzed,” Reed says.
“I don’t think he knows there is a [Budget Control Act] or anything,” Collins says, referring to a 2011 law that defines the budget process.
“He was down at the Ford commissioning,” Reed says, referring to President Trump’s weekend event launching a new aircraft carrier, “saying, ‘I want them to pass my budget.’ Okay, so we give him $54 billion and then we take it away across the board which would cause chaos.”
“Right,” Collins replies.
Collins then went on to bring up remarks made by Texas Congressman Blake Farenthold suggesting that if she were a man he would challenge her to "step outside and settle this Aaron Burr-style.”
“Did you see the one who challenged me to a duel?” Collins asks.
“I know,” Reed replies. “Trust me. Do you know why he challenged you to a duel? ‘Cause you could beat the s— out of him.”
“Well, he’s huge,” Collins replies. “And he — I don’t mean to be unkind, but he’s so unattractive it’s unbelievable.”
“Did you see the picture of him in his pajamas next to this Playboy bunny?” she continues, referring to an infamous photo of Farenthold.
This by the way is the picture Collins is referring to:
So yes, Susan Colins COULD easily beat the shit out of him.
Here is the audio of the above remarks.
Just so you know Farenthold and Collins have already apologized to each other for their remarks, but let's face it the toothpaste is out of the tube concerning what they really think about each.
And we also know what some in the Senate secretly think about the guy now occupying the Oval Office.
Poor, poor Fart&Hold. the only way he can get anything that even looks female near him is with cash. Musta been 5-6 figures for women who look like that.
ReplyDeleteHe always has his inflatable doll. Too bad it's a lesbian.
DeleteMr. Farenthold, Fat, Drunk and Stupid is no way to through life.
ReplyDeleteI admire Collins far more than Murkowski.
ReplyDeleteDuh, anyone with a working brain cell would.
DeleteTrump is so far gone that he is asking his loving fans if he belongs on Mount Rushmore while he has the lowest approval rating in the history of polling. If anyone in the press points out that Trump believes that he belongs on Mount Rushmore while possessing zero major legislative accomplishments during his first six months in office, Trump will call them fake news.
ReplyDeleteNo other president in my lifetime has suggested or asked an audience if they belong on Mount Rushmore. The only reason that a president would ask that question is that he believes that he belongs on Mount Rushmore.
...Trump said, “Every single president on Mount Rushmore, now here’s what I do, I ask whether or not you think that I will someday be on Mount Rushmore, but here’s the problem, if I did it jokingly, totally jokingly, having fun, the fake news media will say he believes he should be on Mount Rushmore, so I won’t say it. Ok? So I won’t say it. They’ll say it anyway; you watch tomorrow. Trump thinks he should be on Mount Rushmore. What a group. What a dishonest group of people out there, and you know the funny thing, you’d think they’d want to see our country be great again. You would really think so, but they don’t. Someday, they’ll explain to me why, but every president on Mount Rushmore believed in protecting American industry. We have to protect our industry.”

Boy, all this "fake media this, fake media that" that he is constantly blabbing is indicative of a man with a serious paranoia issue. Add that to his existing soupçon of mental demons and we have a POTUS that is a very, very sick man. Mentally ill POTUS=great danger to worldwide security.
DeleteThey're not on Mt. Rushmore for protecting industry or any other selfish reason.
DeleteThey are on there for the SELFLESS acts they did.
Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, is on there for establishing the National Parks. He is the reason we have Yosemite.
Teddy Roosevelt is probably the only Republican I would have voted for, except that he's dead. Of course, if Teddy were alive now, he probably wouldn't be a Republican. He might not even be a Democrat. But he'd never receive the Republican nomination for anything. Even Ronald Reagan couldn't do that if he were still alive. The Death Party has gone so far off the rails.
The only thing Trump's image should be on is toilet paper.
He's flying his Rushmore balloon, seeing if anything will stick.
DeleteHoly crap.
DeleteTrump SHOULD be on Rushmore - - at the end of a rope hanging from Lincoln's nose.
DeleteProtect American industry? Then how come all the crap his family brand peddles is from China?
DeleteDemocrats Get Their First Health Care Win By Defeating The Cruz Amendment

Ah, that's my 2020 ticket: Franken/Warren.
DeleteExcept neither will run.
Well Al is not running in 2020 or at any other time, which he has stated over and over. He and Frannie do not want to live their lives the way a president or VP and their families have to.
Delete“Many Americans must be wondering if the president is trying to pry open the office of attorney general to appoint someone during the August recess who will fire special counsel Mueller and shut down the Russia investigation,” U.S. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer said in remarks on the Senate floor.
ReplyDelete“Democrats will never go along with the recess appointment if that situation arises,” he said. “We have some tools in our toolbox to stymie such action. We’re ready to use every single one of them.”

Third straight day of Trump attacking Sessions.

Word is there might be a private meeting. You know what that means. Sessions will be pressured to quit so that Trump can claim he didn't fire him.
Wonder who will replace Sessions? Chris Christie? Rudy Giuliani? Martin Shkreli?
Shrinks of the world agree that it is now ok to analyze public figures. Trumps behavior alarms everyone. Trump is clearly deranged delusional and wacko.
ReplyDeleteHe's some type of monstrous toddler in an adult body. It is most definitely alarming .. to the nth.
Deleteyes the only way he can get anything that even looks female near him is with cash. Musta been 6-7 figures for women who look like that...
ReplyDeleteYou have to hand it to Collins, she could have said a lot worse than "...I don’t mean to be unkind, but he’s so unattractive it’s unbelievable.”
ReplyDeleteAnd leave it to Reed to state that she could beat Fuckatoad shitless.
I'll bet Fartaload has said a lot worse things about Collins. It's usually the ugliest, stupidest, most reprehensible of the Republicans that think it is their god given right to pass judgement on their betters.
Very unfair to insult Fart'N Hold. He is every bit as attractive and manly as tRump. tRump is repulsive, just like Fart'N Hold.

ReplyDelete"To the surprise of no one, the LEAST popular man in the Senate offered a terrible idea that was immediately shot down by Democrats."
Stomach turning.
ReplyDeleteHere’s a portion of what Trump said this evening about undocumented immigrants
“The predators and criminal aliens who poison our communities with drugs and prey on innocent young people. These beautiful, beautiful innocent people will find no safe haven anywhere in our country. And you’ve seen the stories about some of these animals. They don’t want to use guns because it’s too fast and not painful enough. So they’ll take a young, beautiful girl, sixteen, fifteen and others. And they slice ’em and dice ’em with a knife because they want them to go through excruciating pain before they die.”

Yeah, right. When tRump would "rape them and destroy their lives" at sex orgies. So much better for young girls. He is a pervert.
DeleteThe Republican base is dangerous and irresponsible including their leaders. Should be exiled to some place like British did in Australia.
ReplyDeleteRussia would be a perfect place for them!!1 Vlad would not tolerate the competition.
Deleterick stupid perry>" In the 22-minute phone call confirmed by an Energy Department spokesperson on Tuesday, Perry discussed everything from the oil and gas industry to coal exports and Russian cyberhacking with a person he believed to be a high-ranking Ukrainian official. At one point, the man claiming to be Hroisman announced that the Ukrainian president had personally developed a “new kind of fuel” made from alcohol and manure, the distribution of which Perry said he’d be willing to discuss at a later date. Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov, two Russians known for pranking world leaders, took credit for the stunt and posted the full conversation online. "

ReplyDeleteTrump Could Trigger Political and Legal Backlash if He Escalates Against Sessions
ReplyDeletehttp://www.politicususa.com/2017/07/25/trump-trigger-political-legal-backlash-escalates-sessions.html
Trump doesn't care as long as he gets his way.
DeleteAt least we get to see that some of the Republicans are semi sane. I don't trust them but am willing to acknowledge it if they act human.
ReplyDeleteBut they are what I consider the nice Nazis. You know back in Hitler's day, they bought into his crazy ideas, and some were reluctant because they knew what Hitler was doing was wrong. The Republicans that recognize Trump as such are the nice Nazis. Cheeto Hitler is beyond words insane, and his followers too.
I have read that as a child, trump did not experience a common normal childhood. At age 12 due to behavior problems he was sent to juvenile delinquent school. He has a cold outlook on youth and innocence. He appears cold from lack of parental relationship. He was raised by old dirty men that encouraged him to lie cheat steal and win at the expense of others. What a mess of a so called person.
ReplyDeleteSeriously. trump at the boy scout jamboree? and then talking about chopping up little girls? The guy is such a thoughtless idiot. Americans and their children should not be exposed or forced to tolerate this abusive pos sob slob liar another day. I hope that the investigations will end this outrageous nasty crime committed by lousy actors very soon.
