Are we failing to note that Trump and Bannon are yellow?

[gulliver]

Just asking. I mean, they've got these precious, "complicated" reasons they can't let the facts out or, in Bannon's case, face Congressional testimony. Hillary Clinton managed it, but Trump and Bannon know they can't equal her. Sure, they've got their reasons. It's complicated. They're not hiding behind their "mamas," the lawyers, and the media. That's just how it looks.

What a joke these two specimens are. I don't think "tough guys" (as they portray themselves) would cower and flee at the prospect of facing Congress. They'd stand up tall and walk right in. Trump and Bannon, therefore, aren't tough to anyone with the first clue about what tough is. They're nothing but over-mouthy, chickenshit wimps when you see them for what they really are. When push comes to shove and it's time to stand up for themselves, these two just scamper to their respective hidey holes and let others do their fighting for them.

1. Fucking cowards.

[Deuxcents]

6. I agree.

Time to call em out and they get their just rewards. My mom used to say..the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

2. Yellow-bellied, lily-livered, gutless chickens!

[Walleye]

3. Great description. I know lily-livered to be from Shakespeare

I guess yellow-bellied is from, what John Ford movies?

5. Pretty sure I heard John Wayne say it any number of times, certainly in a John Ford movie. So yes!

13. Tough talk from a guy who didn't have the stones to serve in World War II.

15. John Wayne became quite a quite disappointment to me when I reachwd adulthood.

16. No kidding.

Draft-dodging, war-mongering white-supremacist.

17. I used to think these low lives were outliers, sadly, recent history has proven otherwise.

4. Cowardice is the main characteristic of that whole cult. They're scared of needles for crying out lo

[Skittles]

9. yup

it's why they are gun humpers too......fucking COWARDS

[joetheman]

7. Trump and Bannon can't take the heat like HRC did...they are really cowards. mt

[ancianita]

8. By themselves, sure. But one has secret service protection. The other has security, too.

Both have lots of lawyers and accountants on call. Dark money pays for what taxpayers don't.

This is not all them and not all about them, so yellow or not, we're not facing just some guys.
There is a big dark money corporate machine that they're just the face of.
We can see the wear and tear where the congressional fire wall is beginning to crack.
It's as much the background violence near them as it is the money.

I wish it were all laughable -- sure we can take breaks and share laughs -- but bad players are past critical mass in this nation and will still have to be dealt with for a long time ahead.

10. My initial reaction was... "wait... they Both are jaundiced?!". 😂

[smirkymonkey]

11. Same here!

And I could understand Bannon w/ all the hooch he puts away, but Trump is a teetotaler and besides, he's bright orange.

[electric_blue68]

12. Heh. 👍

[Wounded Bear]

14. Bullies tend to be cowards...

they bully others to hide their own insecurities. It's the ultimate projection. They project their own fear of exposure and weakness on others.
