A babbling White House meltdown

WED, FEB 12TH, 2020
BY JASON EASLEY

Trump went on a babbling nonsensical meltdown about Roger Stone, Robert Mueller, and the Russia scandal at the White House ...

... And it turns out — if you look at the FISA warrants and what just happened with FISA, where they found out it was fixed, that it was a dirty, rotten deal. So when you look at that, and you see what happened to Roger Stone —

But think of it: A man leaks classified information — highly classified. They give him two months — Roger Stone — for doing — nobody even knows what he did. In fact, they said he intimidated somebody. That person said he had no idea he was going to jail for that. That person didn’t want to press charges. They put him in for nine years. It’s a disgrace ...

And I want to thank — if you look at what happened, I want to thank the Justice Department for seeing this horrible thing. And I didn’t speak to them, by the way, just so you understand. They saw the horribleness of a nine-year sentence for doing nothing. You have murderers and drugs addicts; they don’t get nine years. Nine years for doing something that nobody even can define what he did ...

1. When I hear the word 'meltdown', I just naturally assume there's going to be consequences

for the meltie melting down.

But there never is. Meltdowns are the new normal.

When the day comes we have a President who can speak lucidly, clearly, in complete, intelligible sentences about comprehensive policy matters, the country is going to collectively shit itself...

Delusional Donnie should build Trumptown on some remote island and take all his faithful to it. Only he could protect them. Only he can see all the dangers threatening them everywhere except in Trumptown.

Jones used paranoia, fear, intimidation, distrust of any other sources of information, micro-managing members' lives -- just like the trump cult:

He's winging it in a plane with no engines left?

Just waiting for the crash?

Everything the scumbags are doing now will have to be undone, the system is FUBAR, now what?
