So we now know that Trump put Romney in a cage on the roof of his car and took him for a ride.

And all Mitt got out of it was a dinner of snails and scallops and the sting of humiliation.

We saw this coming.

Mitt, apparently, did not.




Mitt Romney Is Not Donald Trump’s Secretary Of State Pick
Trump is to announce his choice on Tuesday.

Trump notified Romney he would not get the job in a phone call prior to Romney’s announcement, CNN reported.

Trump is expected to announce his choice for the top diplomatic post on Tuesday, with many sources reporting that the President-elect has settled on Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson.

He's screwed everyone else but not Meeeeeeeee, I'm special.

Somehow, all these smart "R"s all fall for it. Christie, Romney, Ghouliani. They just don't want to admit that Trump is ONLY in this for Brand Trump. Everyone else, f*ck 'em.

There's something going on, and I'll bet it has to do with the FBI and the fact that it is seeded with operatives that were recruited by former KGB agents.

Turtle McConnell seems to know something.
Newsweek seems to know something.
Trump is heading for the bunker.

Sure looks like someone knows something.

I wish I had confidence that someone was protecting the country at this point. Not obvious who that is.

One might feel a LITTLE better if one could find an adult in charge in this whole sorry mess. Or at least an adult we could HOPE was in charge. But there's just no one in sight. I used to believe there was a deep state that would come through in a pinch, but I haven't had that notion in about 20 years now.

...his tongue hanging out, slick with drool, and wagging his tail. Anticipating a big juicy bone and a pat on the head. Surprise - NOT!

Royally.

I'll never forget that pic someone posted here of him having dinner with the shitgibbon.

Wish I could find it.

They all deserve one another.

She was outside Trump Tower yesterday all beaming and glowing about the ManBaby's collection of sports memorabilia. She was especially taken by "Shock's shoes." She meant Shaq, of course, but when you're sucking up so intently it's hard to focus on anything other than the Trumpenhiney.
