Flashback to 24 hours ago from a report asking if Trump would go to Charlottesville:

 

Don Lemon IS dropping real knowledge on everyone's heads.  For God's sake, we put a Black man in the WH as something OTHER than the butler, and we STILL have to look at the statues and the monuments that remind us of a time when that wasn't even thinkable?  You don't need to keep stuff like the Confederate flag around as a means of "preserving history."  You wanna see history preserved?  Go online or to your local libraries and read the accounts of those who actually LIVED it.  You do that, and I promise you, you'll wonder, just as we do, why anyone would still want to honor men who once went to the trouble of seceding from the union in order to keep "people who look like me" (thank you, Mr. Lemon) enslaved.

 

Meanwhile:

 

"I think his ability to effectively govern is dwindling by the hour."

 

Please, that tank was on "E" before he even took the oath.  Trump NEVER had the ability to govern.  Heck, he almost ran his dad's company into the proverbial ground, and on more than one occasion!

Another Fox contributor is mortified - Charles Krauthammer is an evil goblin but this is gold:

Believe me, I know Hillary is as crooked as the days are long; and in fact, she's probably a closet racist herself.  But there is NO way in Hell or NJ that anyone will EVER convince me she would pander to [!@#$%^&*] Nazis or hold press conferences as unhinged and undignified as the one we saw today.

That shouldn't make me laugh, but it does.

My post was meant to be sarcastic. Hillary Clinton is a politician. As such, probably a career BS-er as they all are. I get it. But with all of her flaws, I'd still take 1,000 of her over the likes of this...thing...posing as the President of the USA. And, yes, I did vote for her.

"The Council" refers to Trump's ever-dwindling businessmens' Manufacturing Council, from which execs are dropping like flies since the weekend.

 

 

#ImpeachTrump is the number one trending hashtag on Twitter. #QuitTheCouncil is in the Top 5.

Meanwhile, the WH staff, caught off-guard by Trump, are scrambling for (leaked) talking points:

Oh, I know it was, lol.  I'm sorry if I seemed as if I was attacking you.  I just needed to get it off my chest and your post gave me the perfect opportunity.  Again, though, I am sorry.

One of the tweeters to that thread said it best: "Who brought the car to the street fight?"

That is, if he doesn't resign himself first.

I give Kelly a week. Two on the outside.
