Trump aides explore ways to get a 'frustrated' president out of Washington

WASHINGTON — With a “frustrated” President Donald Trump growing restless after a month of nationwide shutdowns, his top aides and campaign officials are exploring ways to start venturing outside of Washington for events in the coming weeks.

Though national guidelines still advise Americans against taking nonessential trips and health experts warn against easing social distancing practices too soon, senior advisers are actively considering plans for the president to visit health care workers, first responders and Americans whose jobs have been affected by the coronavirus pandemic, according to two sources familiar with the preparations.

The timing of any travel remains unclear but the White House sees the week of May 4 as a target for the president to start leaving Washington “in a safe and responsible way,” modeling day trips after those of Vice President Mike Pence, who traveled to both Colorado and Wisconsin this week.

While Pence’s footprint is much smaller than that of the president’s, aides acknowledge that next month will be a good time to experiment with a few quick presidential excursions. Trump is already scheduled to speak at the U.S. Military Academy’s graduation in West Point, New York, in mid-June.

1. Resignation would work

[olegramps]

22. How about a timely natural death and nice coffin.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

38. Why waste taxpayer money on a nice coffin?

New York City appears to be digging mass graves.

[rzemanfl]

28. My first thought too. n/t

[homegirl]

32. Trump should flee

under dark of night to Russia. He can leave his resignation letter on the mantle. Putin has his own virus problems but they can comfort one another.

[llmart]

39. +1000

That would work for me.

[ProfessorGAC]

48. I'm In!

Except the campaigning part is the only thing he likes!
He isn't going to miss a chance to do that.
Too bad!

[lagomorph777]

18. Let him go to a golf course and a massage parlor in Georgia.

[scarletwoman]

3. Could they please just abandon him in the woods somewhere? (nt)

[N_E_1 for Tennis]

4. He's been protecting the second amendment...use it...

The way a trumper understands.

[Arkansas Granny]

5. 25th Amendment works for me. I know we'd get Pence, but even that would be an improvement.

[rocktivity]

7. Well, don't forget that we had to take down Agnew

to get Nixon to resign...


rocktivity

[leftieNanner]

45. Not exactly what happened

According to Rachel's podcast "Bagman" (worth a listen). They had to take out Agnew before they put pressure on Nixon to resign because ol' Spiro was a deeply corrupt guy - taking cash bribes. They knew it would be a nightmare to allow Agnew to ascend to the Presidency. So he had to go first for that reason - it was not Agnew's resignation that got Nixon to quit.

6. TRANSLATION: Trump orders aides to find ways to get him out of the headlines

after two weeks of bad press

[Botany]

8. Then just go Donny just fucking go. Because you are the biggest fuck up in history

Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Get yourself gone Don
don't take too long
leaving right now would not be wrong

[lagomorph777]

19. Good one!

[Botany]

27. ear worm

Time to drop the con Don
Get out of D.C.
and watch the Russian hookers pee
really it is easy.

[maxsolomon]

9. All this time and no adoring crowds.

Sycophants just don't provide the same jolt.

[Scarsdale]

36. He really should show his supporters

his appreciation. Hold his nasty Nazi rallies on the steps of the government building where they are protesting. They are "such nice people", only they would have to leave their guns behind in their vehicles around Don the Con. No masks, just show up like they have been doing, ready for action.

[Mc Mike]

10. May Day is coming up. Is he still planning on watching the parade in Red Square?

[dweller]

11. stuff him in a hand basket

destination's been determined

✌🏼

[sop]

12. He'll probably act like an absolute dick wherever he goes, giving the thumbs-up next to

an intubated virus victim, talking about how much his C-19 test hurt to a child in the ICU, cheering on the Body Baggers at every stop and bragging about how much everyone loves him.

[Scarsdale]

37. He could take Squint (ze forst lay-dee) along,

to smile and pretend she cares. I wonder if she still has that jacket with "I really don't care. Do U?" painted on the back? Sick or healthy, this jackass would be the last person I would want to see. He caused all this misery by not doing his job. Too bad he was not aware that THAT is part of the position. He thougt golfing, rallys and dumb speeches were all he needed to do. So much for running the country like a tRump family business - right into the ground.

[33taw]

13. Rally time. A nice walk on the beach in Florida with his followers close by.

Bring Rush, Hannity and Carlson with him.

[MissMillie]

14. They could just not go to work

I mean, every time he starts arguing to open things up amidst this pandemic, he's pretty much saying that people are "non-essential."

Not only that, he never listens to them anyway.

[Hekate]

15. Ooo, ooo, I know! He needs a big, big rally where people can get real close to him. Gotta get close.

[SWBTATTReg]

16. He's frustrated? He isn't even working. All he does is watch TV, tweet, and other little ...

things of consequence. All Americans are suffering too, and they are worried about him of all people? Idiot brought this on himself and has no one else to blame but himself. I hope he suffers.

[sakabatou]

17. He knows he could resign, right?

[not fooled]

20. And no mask, of course

need to look "strong."

[Fiendish Thingy]

21. Good- more chances for him to be infected nt

[underpants]

23. Melania's like: Oh no they might find the tunnel running from the tennis pavilion in 🤭

[Aristus]

24. "Here's just one more thing for you to sign before you go to Mar-A-Lago, Mr. President.

Oh, it's nothing, sir. Just Presidenting stuff...

Yes, right there...

Thank you, sir...

Okay, we've got it in writing! Let's get him out of here!..."

[DBoon]

25. St Helena in the middle of the Atlantic ocean?

or maybe not, as the ghost of Napoleon Bonaparte deserves better

[BigDemVoter]

26. As a healthcare worker, I can defniitively say that if Pussy-Grabber comes where I am, I will

tell him exactly what I think of his orange, worthless ass.

[Nasruddin]

29. Man, you had your chance

A few weeks ago.

[blueinredohio]

30. Let him go to a few protests.

[Corgigal]

31. He such like a child,

and his keepers, who must need the income to even put up with this stupidity, are so embarrassing.

[cp]

33. Flight to Moscow. One way.

[0rganism]

34. i recommend an extended vacation in Georgia

he can get a manicure and a fresh coif, catch some all-you-can-eat buffet meals,
maybe do some bowling with Gov. Huckabee (who also talks of a vacation in GA)

[ElementaryPenguin]

35. He should go open up Mar-A-Lago and meet with his adoring supporters!!

As MANY as possible!!

THAT would be re-opening the economy WITH A BANG! (to use his own expression)

[Laelth]

40. Sociopaths get bored. n/t

-Laelth

[RainCaster]

41. He needs to hold another rally

He needs to shake a lot of hands, and "bring 'em together" for his cause.

Or else he could go to North Korea. Kim Jong Un could use DFT's love right about now.

[rurallib]

42. solitary confinement at a federal "resort" maybe?

[samsingh]

43. the resident may be frustrated, the rest of us are terrified.

and many others are dying.

[noneof_theabove]

44. who wants him

I know
give him a old fool-proof WW1 round parachute
detour over the Syria border
and kick him out
I think the Kurds will be delighted he dropped in.

[Takket]

46. "i wanna go outside and play golf! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!"

lazy ass whiny little baby

its a national crisis, do your job

[Totally Tunsie]

47. Guess those Me-Me-Me daily pressers aren't rewarding enough for hs ego.

He's not feeling the love from the reporters, and Fauci, Birx, and Pencie all try to use social distancing...no pats, no huggies.

His staff should invite the whole "fam damily" along for the trip. Haven't seen any of them in ages; they must be screaming to get out for a bit. The family that lies together dies together.

[Flaleftist]

49. Shoot him out of a cannon.

[EarthFirst]

50. He doesn't want to work. He wants his social life back...

His only interests are fundraising @ Mar a Lago and golfing.

His ‘job’ is simply an inconvenience.

[paleotn]

51. Please do...Please! Please! Please!

Please get him out in the virus infected hinterlands. He can hang out with some of his infected supporters...handshakes, big hugs!

[tirebiter]

53. Vote him out

Let the door hit his ass in the process.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

54. Just walk out the back, Jack ... There must be 50 ways to leave your office.

Any way works for me.

Walk across the lawn, Don.

[machoneman]

55. Yep, just leave, asshole and don't let the WH door hit you in your big fat ass!

[zanana1]

56. Please. He'll be golfing.
