Trumpworld Rages Behind the Scenes
November 6, 2020 at 7:12 am EST By Taegan Goddard

“Senior White House and Trump campaign officials are complaining bitterly about poor internal communication, blaming colleagues, pondering what jobs they might try to get next year, and lashing out at their new enemy: Fox News,” Axios reports.

“Aides told Axios they’re dreading the prospect of Fox calling Pennsylvania for Joe Biden, which could make the conservative network the first to give Biden 270 electoral votes.”

Said one administration official: “When Bush had this issue they tapped arguably the pre-eminent statesman of his generation, James Baker, to spearhead their legal and PR efforts, to great effect. … We rolled out Rudy Giuliani, Corey Lewandowski and Pam Bondi. You can draw your own conclusions.”

[The Blue Flower]

1. After 4 years, Giuliani, Lewandowski, and Bondi are the best they have

The marginally decent left long ago.

[sandensea]

15. Send in the clowns

Isn't it bliss, don't you approve...

[iluvtennis]

16. LOL...your comment is perfect. nt

[sandensea]

17. Thanks!

A day for the books, definitely.

[lindysalsagal]

28. The only lawyers who will work for cheeseburgers and eternal public humiliation.

[BComplex]

31. And they still wouldn't get paid!!

[not fooled]

30. Yeah, chimpy had better crooks

I find it troubling that competent election thieves are basically getting kudos in hindsight from many of the media figures making these comparisons. Yes, not a bunch of bumbling idiots but trying for the same antidemocratic ends.

chimpy's "issue" was stealing the presidency from Al Gore. No bueno no matter how well-dressed and "respectable" the robbers.

Election theft is election theft. At least this time they won't get away with it.

[regnaD kciN]

2. "I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning..."

[Delarage]

3. They forgot the Trump children

Lol. I enjoyed watching Jr. thrash around pathetically

[RicROC]

8. what will Kimberly Guilfoyle do?

Will Kimberly still receive $180,000 salary from daddy Trump just because she is sonny Trumps concubine?

Will Kimberly move onto the next up-and-coming politician? (Gavin Newsom is blessed to having divorced her)

[Traildogbob]

10. Well

THE BEST IS YET TO COME!!!

[not_the_one]

22. She is probably already realizing what a big FUCKING MISTAKE THAT WAS.

She could have been hanging on the arm of a man who may one day be president. jr NEVER would have been, instead he is going to jail.

It doesn't say much for Gavin's judge of women, but men are seldom run by the larger brain.

"It is what it is"...

[RicROC]

27. Gavin was 35 years old

or so when he married Kimberly. Being a mid-30 year old bachelor from San Francisco at that time might not have been something he wanted on his résumé (sarcasm)

[BBG]

18. Daddy Bush only served one term

But his offspring served two terms.

You have to put a stake thru the heart of vampires to kill them off.

[NJCher]

25. where did you see that?

I'm big on schadenfreud; want to see it!

[Mike 03]

4. A little bit from the cited Axios article:

Trump advisers are also venting at what they describe as a grossly incompetent post-Election Day operation. "I don't know what the message is," said one prominent surrogate who regularly appears on cable to defend Trump:

"There’s no organization or coordination. If I was to go on TV right now, I wouldn't know what the [blank] to say."

[orwell]

5. Baker wanted to count the votes...

...in one close state - just not the hanging chad votes in question.

This crowd wants to count some votes, not count others, in multiple states. Nobody sane is outraged by a normal vote tallying process.

When this is done Biden will be north of 300 EC votes.

Even a right wing court will not overturn that.

[enough]

[Illumination]

7. Let's face it. The Trump World is SCREWED!...

GO JOE!

[rpannier]

9. Basically they've rolled out the Cook, the Hitchhiker and Leatherface

They just need a Grandpa Sawyer

[bucolic_frolic]

11. The party's over when the pool of crooks and fixers dwindles

but Barr has been invisible. Seems suspicious.

[NJCher]

26. he's busy with the shredder

eom

[vlyons]

12. Incompetence all the way

Everything Trump touches rots and turns to crap.

[BKDem]

13. Tough shit, you incompetent boobs.

You're lucky to have gotten what you got.

You knew he was a snake when you went to work for him.

[NoMoreRepugs]

14. The name Baker caused me to stop eating breakfast.

A walking talking pile of manure.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

20. Me too, but then, it quotes repukes.

They *would think he was wonderful.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

19. Ew that might be fun...watching Fox for a bit.

[StaunchDemocrat1957]

21. God Only Knows What trump is going to Pull Next!

Until he leaves in January ..plenty of time to screw up!

[volstork]

23. Fuck their feelings.

They deserve this and so much more.

[H2O Man]

24. Recommended.

[BobTheSubgenius]

29. That "rollout" is hilarious!!!

THAT is the best you've got. You might as well have used Tweedledum and Tweedledumber. They have no useful tasks on hand for the foreseeable future...until the sun goes supernova, say.
