Trump has always owned the Mad Libs.

That is really funny. I got a lot of mileage our of that today.
American workers aren’t just finding it harder every week to stretch their paycheck, they’re doing worse than their peers in other developed nations in a lot of ways.

Now we know why the swimsuit competition was really cancelled! Lol!
Those rascally Spaniards!

You hoo, is that a pistol in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?! Well since we confiscated your pistil, I guess even a lib can figure it out! It could be a tater…
At least it’s in the FRONT this time!!!!
You know, if Rafael Nadal doesn’t win Wimbledon, he can put on an evening gown and run for Miss Universe!!!
Or he can put on a dress and win both titles! Man that would be impressive. Man is a Freudian slip by the way…
Great! Name the restaurant, Stephen. Close them down!
Yes, those open minded, tolerant libs…Would you want your kid to grow up acting like these hateful buffoons? A scene at a recent kindergarten…. No little Johnny, you cant play with my toys, your mommy and daddy voted for Trump! You can’t sit by me either. You are bad!
Fake news.
Is this a reply? Newt is right and you just affirmed it? Andrew why did Trump win the woman vote? Oops.
Jesus. Either stop repeating shit you hear or start listening to people who know what they’re talking about. Trump didn’t win the majority of women’s votes in 2016, unless by women you mean white women.
Break it down even further Trump won white working class women and lost college educated white women.
If you’re rude and abusive to a designated contributor you’ll get yourself moderated quickly. Other than that, nothing. Chronic trolling and repeating false statements get an easy pass. The powers that be should either refresh their guidelines for participation or discard them.

Yea, I forgot white women don’t count!!
Actually what you are implying with your oft-repeated echo chamber lie is that only the white women’s vote counts.
Dang, you guys! ALLLLLLLL the votes count! All of them! Unless we listen to you all, who imply that all Trump votes were cast by mouth-breathing troglodytes! Seriously?? Even I have said that Trump would have probably lost to Bernie. He campaigned where he needed to. Hillary, much like Gore, lost states she should have steamrolled in. If Gore had just won Tennessee, he’d have been Prez. By continuing to insult Trump voters, you keep us stoked and motivated. If you were smart, you’d try and craft your message to get us to give you a look. Hell, even Bill and Hillary flew coach recently?!?!?!?!? Why do you think that is!? Think!!!!!
Ahhhh, the Snivler we all expect! Carry on.
How much did the meeting with North Korea cost the US? Not even $1. A photo op… How much did Obama get taken by the Iranians? $152 billion! $2 billion delivered in cash on pallets…Is Iran still behaving badly? Was that a good deal for the US? Be honest. If they both got taken, who was the bigger fool? What was the Clinton Foundation cut on that one?
http://observer.com/2018/06/trump-kim-summit-cost-north-korea/
So far Trump’s ridiculous trip to N. Korea has cost the tax payers 20 million. Obama got inspections in Iran. Trump got nothing but N. Korea laughing at him and N. Korea literally made a fool of Pompeo yesterday.
So now foreign policy is about travel expenses? Forget right and wrong, or good policy.
Also– Obama and/or Clinton!
Surely, dislike or hate for them is still more important than right or wrong policy.
Lemmings getting pwned by Trump every day.
We did get inspections and some measure of oversight of the Iranian nuclear program.
Trump just got straight-up played by the North Koreans. There is a reason why we have been at a stalemate with them for 60+ years. Bluster isn’t going to get very far with them considering how they are masters at it. Considering their backing by China and the fact that they basically have Seoul by the cajoles with their artillery placements makes for an intractable situation.
Ha, I meant cajones. Where is the damn edit button?
Also…that money was the Iranian’s. We had it frozen since 1979 and would not give it back…so that really isnt a cost to tax payers
Sorry, Alternative facts are SOOOO 2017.
I thought Newt was off building his colony on Mars.
These people are embracing child abuse, pedophilia and Putin because it “upsets the libs”. What a bunch of foolish knee jerkers.
Fundamentalism is currently the scourge of the world. ISIS is a fundamenalist organization.
News flash…someone thinks the Founding Fathers were ISIS fundamentalists…Well according to today’s modern lib. That Constitution is just a suggestion and a molding old document.
What the heck are you talking about? You’re just spouting gibberish.
It’s not gibberish. It is intentional language created from a pool of lies and hate, which pool is fed by the waters of Infowars and the like, all designed to attack in order to avoid thoughtfulness and introspection, and the underlying shame and guilt which would ensue. So, more like a defense mechanism. Filled with gibbberish.

Kellyanne Conway found guilty by the Office of Special Counsel for violations of the Hatch Act.
Embedded in that article:
“In talks to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement, the Americans have been pushing for language that would limit the ability of Canada, Mexico and the United States to put warning labels on junk food and sugary beverages, according to a draft of the proposal reviewed by The New York Times.”
This points out a key difference of Trumpists: For them, the swamp is the very existence of the regulations, even if the regulations were created for the protection of children. But others more correctly see the swamp as the existence of regulations that are passed- or not- based upon corporate influence (and not science, or public health).
What a mess. When you think the GOP has hit the bottom of the barrel the bottom of the barrel seems to fall out.
The best comment by him and the one that made me laugh the most was Darla Shine’s tweets “were taken out of context” even though the whole tweet was published.
As of this hour Hardiman seems to be the leading choice for the Supreme Court.
Decision has been made! A great. great choice! See you at 9!!!
Let the character assassination begin! Thankfully The Libs have nothing! Another vacancy opens in less than a year…
And he didn’t even kiss us:
‘Super Polluting’ Trucks Receive Loophole on Pruitt’s Last Day
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/06/us/glider-trucks-loophole-pruitt.html
Kemp’s spokesman Ryan Mahoney has the credibility of the usual political spin doctor. One excuse for the Kentucky taxpayer subsidized company that Kemp invested in defaulting on its payments to farmers in 2016 was “the great recession”.
Hart AgStrong got a $450,000 tax incentive for job creation from the Kentucky Business Investment Program. Steve Beshear, Kentucky’s governor at the time, came to the groundbreaking [2014]for the $7.3 million, 23,000-square-foot facility and said the canola crushing operation “will also provide a significant boost to our local farmers and Kentucky’s food production industry. I look forward to seeing this Kentucky-made product on store shelves throughout the U.S.”
More than three years later [2017], Hart AgStrong’s license to buy grain directly from farmers has been suspended in Kentucky because the small crushing company still owes farmers roughly $2.5 million on what they were supposed to receive on last year’s crop [2016] that was delivered to the Trenton crush facility.

Is the GOP going to be running him for office this year? He’d fit right in with all the rest of their candidates these days.
I figured Trump would pick him based on his writings that a sitting president standing trial in office would cause havoc. If even the civil cases go to SCOTUS, Trump would view Kavanaugh a vote on his side.
Plus he keeps Collins.
“Under the Constitution, the President may decline to enforce a statute that regulates private individuals when the President deems the statute unconstitutional, even if a court has held or would hold the statute constitutional.” — from a Kavanaugh dissent.
This appears to be shaping up to be an easy no vote.
Yep, like always Trump is looking out for himself and his family and thinks Kavanaugh is a get out of jail free card. This is why I predicted Kavanaugh was going to be the pick the other day.
Maybe, but it’s easy to believe he might have said to McGahn “Make sure you pick me someone who will cover my ass”, or something to that effect.
Definitely not the toughest to confirm. Barrett was my favorite but she would have been the toughest to confirm because of the 2 pro abort gop Senators.
Collins and Murkowski will not vote against Kavanugh because he has a partisan past. They would vote against Barrett because she is so obviously pro life. She actually lives her convictions rather than just talking the talk. Hopefully we get her next time.
But I will take Kavanaugh in a heartbeat. Very strong on religious liberty. Very strong on 2 A.
A massive upgrade over Kennedy.
Good luck making Cavanaugh into a bad guy.. I am sure the left will try but it looks almost impossible to do.
What a surprise! Trump went with the guy most likely, by his record, to protect him from the Russia investigation.
Trump punched down on Ecuador to drop sponsorship of a World Health Assembly resolution to encourage breast feeding, with “at least a dozen countries, most of them poor nations in Africa and Latin America, backed off [support of the resolution], citing fears of retaliation.”
In the end, the Trump administration’s efforts were mostly unsuccessful. It was the Russians who ultimately stepped in to introduce the measure. The Americans did not threaten them.
Maybe Trump will MAGA by unconditionally agreeing to discontinue US participation in NATO exercises to Putin when they meet privately. After all, discontinuation of military exercises with South Korean has produced fabulous results for Pompeo in his recent conversations with North Korea!
“Conversations in a locker room are a lot different than allegations of abuse or reported abuse to us.” — Jordan on Fox News.
Or was that former Penn State Athletic Director Tim Curley who said that?
