Yes, Folks, It’s Another Unhinged, Self-Defeating Rage-Tweeting Binge From Our So-Called President

He’s losing his already tenuous grasp on reality

PoliticsJune 2017 • Views: 34,338

He’s getting more unhinged every day, and he has the power to launch America’s nuclear arsenal on 5 minutes’ notice. Today’s case in point: this series of bizarre, self-defeating early morning tweets in which he sabotages his own legal positions again, seems to forget that he actually signed what he’s calling a “watered down Travel Ban,” tweets to “Fox & Friends” about the “Dems” being “obstructionists” (all in caps), and once again attacks the Mayor of London for not spreading panic like Trump is.

He never had much of a grasp on reality outside his bubble, but becoming president has clearly driven this guy over the brink. His mental state is deteriorating rapidly.

People, the lawyers and the courts can call it whatever they want, but I am calling it what we need and what it is, a TRAVEL BAN!

“”what the president says are not his policies”“

I’ve thought for some time now that Trump’s own worst enemy is Trump. His impulsive behavior compels him to lose control and tweet things that WH aides will later attempt to “clean up.” I want him to keep tweeting because it provides insight into what his real positions are on issues/policies, and tweets can be preserved and could be used as evidence in cases involving his policies.

calochortus Jun 5, 2017 • 2:29:11pm

Would it be rude to point out that Trump might have better luck getting, say, ambassadors confirmed if he nominated some? I looked at this list and I only saw 6 nominations (mostly from late May) and 57 vacancies with no nominations. There were 3 additional vacancies, but they were for countries we don’t exchange ambassadors with, so I didn’t count them.

I just had an epiphany. Among the scores of other names I’ve called Clownstick, I have indeed compared him to Lex Luthor, or more to the point a dumber Lex Luthor. On that comparison, I think I get his personal stake in climate change denial. Like Luthor did in the 1977 Superman, where he bought up all the land on the east side of the San Andreas Fault, we should check and see if Trump has bought up land along the sea-level increase line that would come from current projected global warming without the Paris protocols being followed.

If you have room for them to run around, you can’t do better than a working-group dog. My top fave doges are from that group.

The dogs I’ve shared my life w/ since I was about 10 or so in chronological order:

Samoyed
Akita/Nor. Elkhound mix(pound dog)
Bernese Mountain dog(Adopted from neighbor who was moving)
Malamute(Texas rescue dog) - my personal favorite.

I’m a huge fan of the working group.

The Norwegian Elkhound should totally be in the working dog group and not the hound group. Just because a mistranslation put the word hound in the name it is sort of a weird way to classify them.

Winner is a contractor with Pluribus International Corporation assigned to a U.S. government agency facility in Georgia. She has been employed at the facility since on or about February 13, and has held a Top Secret clearance during that time.

This is an interesting way to go into this week of expected bombshells, the NSA basically knew that Russia was trying to hack voting systems days prior to the election.

How in the world does a 25 year old with 6 months on the job get top secret security clearance?

Because they grant it to anyone who needs it. Security clearances, after the background checks are done, are based on need to get a job done. So, in order to do her job, it was determined that she needed to get a Top Secret clearance. She would have needed a more thorough background check, but age has nothing to do with it, not if we’re going to send 18 year olds into battle.

Here’s a question for everyone: You’ve been told you need to protect the United States, and you find information that the Russians tried to hack voting machines. Is it more patriotic to keep that information quiet, or to make it public?

Nah, she conducted correspondence with the Intercept from her work computer, left a paper trail a mile wide and straight up admitted was she did to the agents who served her the search warrant. She was either a gigantic idiot or she wanted to get caught, or both.

You would think that someone working for a fucking INTELLIGENCE agency would assume that her work email would be monitored.

This comes out today. There is talk of Mike Rogers bombing Trump on Wednesday and Comey goes before Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday.

Like others, I don’t trust Greenwald. Is there something going on where someone on the Trump team needed to know if there was a document like this? Did someone on the Trump team need to know if the NSA was on the tail more than Trump would have expected and needed to know of the document to know how much was known. Then with the knowledge, the Trump team could start to figure out how to deal with it all.

My brother had a cattle dog when we were younger…she had pups. He docked their tails with rubber bands. Collected them all and made them into keychains. I had one for a few years.

It is also possible that the Intercept was not the only recipient of this material, but that other outlets have sat on it for some reason.

Ah what an idiot… weapons are not allowed at NASCAR events. I just spent some time looking at the various tracks. They all ban weapons

Example (emphasis added): bristolmotorspeedway.com

daytonainternationalspeedway.com

texasmotorspeedway.com

charlottemotorspeedway.com

doverspeedway.com

So …. maybe, just maybe, there’s never been a terrorist attack at a NASCAR race because of their strong anti-gun policy.

It could also be because there are actually very few people who are inclined to commit these kinds of attacks. These random attacks really aren’t much different from the random shootings we see way too often. And as much as most conservatives don’t want to admit it, the way to deal with them is through police investigation of potential crimes, and domestic and foreign policy that address the root causes of terrorism (but that’s big complicated stuff that can’t be solved with bombing the shit out of people).

Congressman: Russian operatives hacked Illinois elections board

Democratic U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley said Monday that Russian operatives hacked into the State Board of Elections last year to view voter database files, a potential move toward trying to make voters distrust the state and federal election system.

Quigley, a member of the House Intelligence Committee, also warned of a potential “constitutional crisis” over executive privilege between President Donald Trump and the U.S. Supreme Court as part of multiple investigations into possible collusion between agents of the Russian government and Trump’s presidential campaign.

Quigley’s declaration of Russian involvement in the hacking of the state elections board marked the first time the country had been definitively identified as behind the attack last year, though it had been widely suspected.

Had she not been caught, it would have just been an anonymous leak. Also, she could have released more.

It just doesn’t seem like she’s trying to run from her decision to release it.

It would look better for her if she’d come out with the entire story during pre-emptively during a press conference. On the other hand that would’ve opened her up to charges that she was making a publicity play.

All I’m saying is that I regret my initial dismissive attitude at the beginning of this thread. I heard the name Reality Winner, saw how easy it was to catch her and figured it was just some millennial idiot who played with fire and got burned. That kneejerk assessment was overly cynical.

Scary paragraph from the Intercept story:

“If someone has access to a state voter database, they can take malicious action by modifying or removing information,” she said. “This could affect whether someone has the ability to cast a regular ballot, or be required to cast a ‘provisional’ ballot — which would mean it has to be checked for their eligibility before it is included in the vote, and it may mean the voter has to jump through certain hoops such as proving their information to the election official before their eligibility is affirmed.”

It’s very possible that Russia could have aided Republican voter suppression efforts in key states.
