America has unleashed a raving lunatic on this planet

[malaise]

and he is not North Korean.

[Trust Buster]

1. This is the same Bush/Cheney ploy that this country fell for once. Buyer beware.

[malaise]

7. This may be worse

He must be stopped

[Trust Buster]

36. A good war will evoke nationalistic emotions and save his pathetic poll numbers in his mind.

[raven mad]

48. And it seems the sTrumpet will give it to us -

and Alaska is right smack in the firing line.

Oh, how I DESPISE not just this pResident, but anyone and everyone who voted for him.

[WinstonSmith4740]

51. This has nothing to do with this thread!

I just noticed one of the pictures in your sig line. Wasn't personal cultivation of marijuana legal there in Alaska years back? Or was that an urban legend?

[raven mad]

75. Well, not legal - but more like every law enforcement entity ignored it.

During the pipeline buildup, there was just way too much bad stuff happening to worry about a little weed. It was technically legalized in 1975 but talk about complex! Check this link from Alternet - it gives a pretty good history. http://www.alternet.org/drugs/alaska-legalized-marijuana-39-years-ago-and-three-more-surprising-pieces-pot-history

[WinstonSmith4740]

76. Thanks!

Great article. The medical dispensaries here in Nevada just opened July 1st for recreational sales. I never thought I'd be able to stroll into a well-lit, secure strip mall (there's a restaurant 2 doors down) and buy weed in the open. It totally rocks.

[raven mad]

78. It IS kind of mind-blowing, still.

When you remember the years of trying to figure out where to hide your meager stash and now walk into a store that has it pre-rolled, filtered or not, various strengths, etc., right on the packaging!

[lunasun]

55. Great cartoon.This country is acting like a raving lunatic .Muslim ban Wall Climate hoax lock her up

These voters of his are just as stark raving mad

[certainot]

74. americans can thank limbaugh and sons first and foremost

or rather, any business that advertises on any one of their 1200 or so talk radio stations, and the 88 universities that broadcast sports on 257 limbaugh stations and help them attract advertisers and legitimize their community messaging

trump would be nowhere near the white house without talk radio

[CrispyQ]

68. I worry it will save his poll numbers, period.

Many who oppose him will get in line with their flags waving.

[StevieM]

38. Comey was worse than Trump. And all but five Democrats just voted to confirm Christopher Wray

as FBI director. If Comey was capable of the stuff he did, then what will Christopher Wray do?

[adigal]

77. What about Mattis? Is it a war crime to say you are going to kill

all the civilians? His speech chilled me.

[not fooled]

53. Oh, and don't forget

raygun and his little invasion of Grenada, concocted to distract 'Murika from the Marine Corps barracks bombing disaster in Beirut. Modeled of course on maggie's stunt war in the Falklands.

The pukes have gone to this poisoned well many times.

[7962]

70. Hell, I long for the days of W in office! nt

[canetoad]

2. Too damn right Malaise

Had a call last night from Hiroshima. My very best friends are in Japan for a month. I'm worried.

[malaise]

4. THey'll been fine

Hopefully someone will confine this lunatic to a mental institution with haste.

[SummerSnow]

8. he really needs a straight jacket and a muzzle asap

[lunatica]

17. The N Koreans don't have war heads - only unarmed missiles

A little bit less to worry about.

[ProudLib72]

3. Promises made, promises kept

What did all those people think he was going to do when he kept going on about having nukes and not using them? He's got an itchy trigger finger, and he needs to prove himself to the world. Just what did the people who voted for him think would happen?

[malaise]

5. Precisely

That is the point - ReTHUGs should be locked up for this madness

[syringis]

10. Well, here's the problem...

Just what did the people who voted for him think would happen?

They don't think.

[ProudLib72]

13. In one ear and out the other

With nothing in between to slow down the information.

[syringis]

18. In french, I would say...

Pile poil, l'exacte définition.

can be translated by : right on the nose, the exact definition.

[Juliusseizure]

43. They love it

Seriously check twitter. The memes/GIFS of Trump as world enforcer/savior of planet are all over.

[syringis]

45. I am about to say something horrible

Humanity is now living on credit and still, we have to bear their worthless cost.

Sighs...sighs

[SergeStorms]

58. Amazing, isn't it?

These people think this is a celebrity "reality" show, with their hero - Trump - ready to step in and "fire" someone they don't like. They see him as "decisive, manly, courageous" and other adjectives that DO NOT FIT DONALD TRUMP'S PERSONA ONE IOTA. What they see as positive traits are really weaknesses. It's Trump's false bravado, his "act" as a fearless president. In actuality, he's a scared little boy who needs constant approval and ego stroking to make him a "man".

TRUMP'S SUPPORTERS MAKE ME PHYSICALLY ILL!

They're as far removed from reality as their hero. They think this is a game, where the end results can always be edited out and done over for a better "program".

TRUMP IS A MADMAN, AND HAS TO BE STOPPED!

[MFM008]

6. Damn every asshat

That voted for this worm.

[Cosmocat]

34. +1,000,000 AND

who made the decent, highly capable and experienced candidate out to be what this asshole IS ...

[GallopingGhost]

56. THIS.

F them all.

[lpbk2713]

9. Trump makes Idi Amin look like an amateur.

Although they both have similar personality disorders.

[Blue_Tires]

11. Hey, don't look at me, I tried to warn folks

All Dems had to do was show up to fuckin' vote, and they couldn't even do that...

[malaise]

63. I know

[7962]

71. You're right. nt

[hamsterjill]

73. Me, too.

And I begged several older white men that I work with to vote for Hillary and NOT waste their votes on Johnson. They didn't listen...

[MoonRiver]

12. He doesn't care if he wipes out half the world,

as long as we're all distracted from Russia!

[countryjake]

14. You can say that again!

"America has unleashed a raving lunatic on this planet and he is not North Korean."

[stollen]

15. Just before getting on this overnight ferry from Greece to Italy....

the ticket agent gave us a "hard" time by mentioning Trump in a joking manner. After a week in Greece, Trump's name hadn't been spoken to us...guess this bit of news was known to our ticket agent before we'd heard about it.

[malaise]

16. Sad

I feel for the vast majority of Americans who never supported this lunatic

[Cosmocat]

35. I would quible

the vast majority of Americans either voted for him OR voted third party or did not bother to vote - so they were perfectly fine with him ...

[malaise]

41. Then how did Hillary Clinton have three million more votes?n/t

[7962]

72. Cosmocat is including 3rd party votes, which i'm guessing totaled over 3M?

[BigmanPigman]

19. This could very well put him over the top into a severe mental state

that is dangerous to the country. Than maybe his cabinet and the GOP will use the 25 Amend. I hope the Bellevue Mental Ward is getting his padded room ready. He can stay there until his cell at Sing Sing is painted gold.

[C Moon]

20. His last effort to save his ass...kill. The GOP way.

[flibbitygiblets]

21. OR, the Russians are working with Lil' Kim to distract from Mueller investigation

Explains why Trump is still tweeting about Lynch & Clinton on a plane. It's all about the investigation.

[NRaleighLiberal]

22. We spawned him...Russia did the unleashing

[malaise]

42. Agreedbut with collusion from

his goons and ReTHUGs.

[gordianot]

23. Trump wants historical notoriety any way he can get it.

He may appear to be a clown but he is the single most dangerous man in history. His family and followers are second in line.

[Vinca]

24. You're exactly right. This is a terrifying situation.

He has to be removed from the office ASAP.

[flibbitygiblets]

25. notice how no one's talking about Russian Investigation anymore? DISTRACTION ACCOMPLISHED.

Every news channel was about to talk about how Pence was running for president, historically low poll number, shrinking base, etc.

I wouldn't shit my pants just yet.

[handmade34]

30. that's ok

Mueller and staff are still hard at work!!

[bdamomma]

65. that is one good thing

Mueller is not giving an inch to this a$$hole, I hope Mueller nails him good.

[broadcaster90210]

26. And it may end the world.

And that is NOT byperbole.

The world better wake up to the fact that we are the real enemy.

[mountain grammy]

27. We have met the enemy and it is us

[malaise]

31. Actually it is

there are many enemies within and without

[yuiyoshida]

28. holy fuck...He has to go

Link to tweet

[malaise]

32. Thanks for the video

He has to go

[SammyWinstonJack]

44. The face of evil.

[yuiyoshida]

46. THIS COUNTRY IS A SHIP WITH no one at the RUDDER!

WTF??

[Texin]

29. The military, the generals and the SAC command can override his ass.

They put in a fail safe switch in the final few weeks and months during the Watergate era when it was well known that Nixon was decompensating and drinking like a sailor on a weekend bender from the stress of the investigation. I don't think it's flown over their hairspray that the orange shitgibbon is behaving similarly, tweeting barking mad threats about unleashing "Fire and Fury" on the North Koreans, and generally shit-slinging on a daily basis. I'm not sure any of the nuclear codes he's purportedly carrying around in the "football" are even genuine. Maybe somebody with a higher IQ has control of those. Let's hope so.

[malaise]

33. That's the good news

He is pissed that Mueller is getting close

[yorkie77]

37. all you need to do is watch 60 minutes to know this is not the case

http://eclipsemagazine.com/practicing-the-unthinkable-60-minutes-goes-inside-the-u-s-nuclear-arsenal/

That poor commander has not choice but to launch if told to. Hopefully he will know the Commander-in-chief is a lunatic and he won't do it.

[ouija]

39. These Two Clowns

Are playing a game of which dictator can make the most outlandish nuclear threat. Take the name away from the quote and you could not tell which asshole made which threat.

[MrPurple]

54. Great, so we're working on a reverse Dr. Strangelove

[MonkeyC]

40. Right. Nt

[spanone]

47. republicans are in charge, there will be wars

and the head republican is a MadMan

[bdamomma]

49. not even

Muslim either. We need this sick ass man/child gone. This is not a fucking game show.

Where is Dennis Rodman???

[bdamomma]

50. so in trump's sick mind

this NK threat is a distraction from the Russian investigation, changing the narrative again. Hello Congress, get this fucking man out now.

[zentrum]

52. You said it Malaise.

So ashamed and terrified of what America has suddenly done to the whole planet.

[bora13]

57. Bromancing the bone

People are saying t-rump sings this in the shower:

Putin is just alright with me, Putin is just alright, oh yeah
Putin is just alright with me, Putin is just alright
I don't care what they may say
I don't care what they may do
I don't care what they may say
Putin is just alright, oh yeah
Putin is just alright
Putin is just alright with me, Putin is just alright, oh yeah
Putin is just alright with me, Putin is just alright
I don't care what they may know
I don't care where they may go
I don't care what they may know
Putin is just alright, oh yeah
Putin, he's my friend; Putin, he's my friend
He took me by the hand; Led me far from this land
Putin, he's my friend
Putin is just alright with me, Putin is just alright, oh yeah
Putin is just alright with me, Putin is just alright
I don't care what they may say, I don't care what they may do
I don't care what they may say, Putin is just alright, oh yeah

[Willie Pep]

59. I am hoping it is all talk.

Kind of like your goofy friend in high school who claims to be a black belt in 7 different martial arts, beats up muggers all the time and has the best-looking girlfriend in town who curiously nobody ever sees because she is always away visiting her grandmother in another state or is at summer camp.

Trump knows that his poll numbers and declining and so this tough talk is a way to win points with his base and maybe keep some swing voters on his side by playing the patriot card.

I am guessing that the military, intelligence and foreign policy professionals in the administration are trying to handle the situation in a sane manner. I hope I am right.

[Generic Other]

61. Just saw Jeb Bush on MSNBC

He looked like he looked ashen faced. Is that normal for him? Or should I be alarmed?

[Willie Pep]

62. I wouldn't be alarmed.

Maybe Jeb Bush is just tired. I wouldn't worry yet.

[malaise]

64. Yep it's always about him n/t

[Doug the Dem]

60. Agreed

I am way more worried about Donnie than Kim!

[LiberalBrooke]

66. I've tried hard not to label his supporters.

Just cannot do it. I loath all of the stupid people who voted for him or propped him up in any way. They are just plain either evil or idiots. Why in the world did any military want him as commander in chief? What part of him did evangelicals think supports their belief in Jesus?

[saidsimplesimon]

67. One who

loves chocolate cake but kicks protective agents out of his fancy digs because he wants to extort condo purchases from the US Treasury to his personal bottom line?

[gilbert sullivan]

69. And one other is NK.

What's the correct response to the little sawed off prick? I don't know, I'm just glad I don't have to deal with it personally.

I wouldn't shed a tear if someone decided to turn Pyongyang into a seething puddle of molten goo.
