Just so we don't get too depressed about it all, remember this guy writes his own gags:

Looks like the shit is about to hit the fan.
Putins on the phone "Agent Orange your time is up."
URL is crazy on this one too.

Republican senators beating up guardian journalists. No grasp of middle eastern politics. Tiny hands, orange hair. Still the idiots love him.

Whats with the veils, the Trumps go to visit the Middle East no heads scarfs insight.
Go and visit the Pope, crack out the veils, I think that whoever is giving them clothing tips needs "firing."
A definite wardrobe malfunction, they look even more stupid than normal.
I bet Popey is thinking they are all nuts.

Pope definitely has that "WTF, who are these people" look on his face.

As to the veils, much as I hate to defend a Trump, I believe this is a Vatican requirement. Michelle Obama wore one there (and didn't wear one in Saudi, for which Trump criticised her, of course). But the whole black thing? Not sure what is going on three.

The black thing is all part of Vatican Protocol. I believe women have to wear long sleeved black "mourning" clothing with a veil for a papal hearing unless you are a catholic queen.

I need to read up a bit more for my next meeting with popey
Double standards though crack veils out for pope but not in the Middle East.

I still think the Trump ladies look like extras out of a spaghetti western.
The huff video shows that pope wasn't looking forward to meet the Trumps.

Anyway back to Donny's big trip.
Looks as though most eu leaders suffered only minor injuries.
A few broken knuckles, fingers and maybe an arm or two.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/may/27/donald-trumps-europe-tour-leaves-leaders-shaken
Macron tried to get one over with the Trump shake but Donny had the last laugh.
The videos are hilarious :lol: He's like a toddler at a play group.

He's chosen oil money over the future prospects of the world. What a tool.

The entire planet, including his pimp (sorry, that's not how you spell Putin, is it) and China (didn't they invent Climate change?) are now openly mocking him and contradicting him.

It also seems that "pulling out" is more complicated than he thinks and can't be done (or at least completed) within his current term (PLEASE! FFS! Can this be his "ONLY" term. FOR THE LOVE OF COFEVEV!).

Premature?

http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/donald-trump-impeachment-president-mike-pence-republican-congress-support-not-so-bad-a7740341.html?cmpid=facebook-post

We're a bit late for the Ides of March, but could we pencil him in for the Ides of June?

Should be nice weather for it then, too.

Pence is a Christian fundamentalist zealot. As I saw someone else comment yesterday, he probably thinks The Handmaid's Tale is a blueprint for an ideal society. For that reason alone I don't want Trump alone to fall know because of the Comey memo or some other scandal. The ideal is that eventually there is proof of collusion between the campaign and Russia, enough to invalidate the entire election ... but that is very probably just ideal daydreaming.

On the second sentence there, there's a novel that sounds more prescient every day.
Next a bomb in Congress and suspend the Constitution, while they deal with the "Terrorists"...
