  President Trump should send a recording of his favorite speeches to the Queen, so she can play it for Parliament, then release it worldwide, so Citizens everywhere can hear and see it.

  Trump does not need Parliament.

  Actually President Trump should look at the various politicians who attempt to travel here for any reason, and complicate their lives, just because he can.


The contents of Trump's favorite speeches:

This is the best speech. Believe me.
I have the best words. The best words you will ever hear in a speech.
I have given the most speeches. Maybe a billion of them. No one gives speeches like I do.

President complains Nordstrom treated daughter's business "unfairly"

He doesn't have time for intelligence briefings but he has time to argue with a fucking retail store.

That is absolutely UNETHICAL!

Let's see if I got this right.  According to Trump's people, fake news is anything they don't want to hear, when fake news is really stuff they just make up that never happened.  :emot_laughing:

BREAKING: The 9th Circuit Court Rules Against Trump!

http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-live-updates-9th-circuit-arguments-9th-circuit-court-of-appeals-says-a-1486678883-htmlstory.html

This is a huge blow to Trump. The Constitution is going to remain in force, and Trump better start learning fast how politics works.

No, we will pay for it in multiple ways.

Trump won't pay for it though, he pays no taxes.

Agreed, Liz. We simply don't have the resources to squander them on bad political theater and symbolic (but ineffective) political statements.

I don't like Charles Krauthammer generally, but credit where it's due; this is a very clearly thought out, and very well written response to Trump's moronic travel ban:

Remember ethics in government? Under Trump there are none. Scandals everywhere and it's week three.

This shit would not have happened under Obama or Bush.

Trump’s Watered-Down Ethics Rules Let a Lobbyist Help Run an Agency He Lobbied

Quote
That task is made more confusing because of an apparent error in the Trump executive order: It says the phrase “particular matter” has the “same meaning as set forth in section 207 of title 28, United States Code.”

That part of the U.S. code does not exist.

I can't tell them apart either.

Newspaper uses photo of Alec Baldwin on 'SNL' instead of Trump



Dominican newspaper El Nacional on Friday printed a photo of Alec Baldwin doing his impression of President Trump on "Saturday Night Live" in an article about Trump and Israel.

The photo was used side-by-side with a photo of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

It was not immediately clear whether the image of Baldwin was accidental or an intentional joke.

Social media users found it funny either way.

    Dear El Nacional, Alec Baldwin will be pleased as punch. But let's hope the Dominican Republic isn't added to Trump's banned countries list pic.twitter.com/vt4NJe4NJf

    That moment when @AlecBaldwin IS in fact Donald Trump. Hoy es viernes y @ElNacional_RD lo sabe. pic.twitter.com/XEjwnq32M6

    @craigmelvin @AlecBaldwin is so good at doing Trump @ElNacional_RD used his picture instead of the latter.

Trump needs to shut up, and get a grip. If he continues to bash the Judiciary, then I think it's time for the people to start gathering signatures on a petition to compel Congress to impeach Trump for inciting a Constitutional Crisis.

Trump tweets: ‘Our legal system is broken!’

President Trump on Saturday morning increased his attacks on the judiciary, declaring on Twitter that “our legal system is broken!”
 
“Our legal system is broken! "77% of refugees allowed into U.S. since travel reprieve hail from seven suspect countries." (WT)  SO DANGEROUS!” he tweeted, quoting a Washington Times article published Thursday.

    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 11, 2017

 
Trump has repeatedly railed against judges who have ruled against his executive order on immigration.
 
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on Thursday refused to lift a temporary stay on the order that was put in place by a district court last week.
 
Trump on Thursday night lashed out at the appeals court, tweeting: “SEE YOU IN COURT, THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!”
 
He earlier in the week called the district judge who first put a temporary restraining order on his actions a “so-called judge.”
 
The White House has sent conflicting signals on what it will do next in the legal fight. Chief of Staff Reince Priebus on Friday evening said the administration was still considering an appeal to the Supreme Court.
 
Priebus's statement came roughly an hour after a White House official said it was not planning to challenge the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling upholding a temporary restraining order blocking the ban.
 
And Trump himself has said a new order on security could come next week.
 
Trump’s executive action barred people from seven majority Muslim countries from entering the U.S. for 90 days. The order also temporarily halted refugee resettlement in the U.S., and banned Syrian refugees indefinitely.
 
Trump’s Saturday morning tweet came while he is hosting Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

With the greatest leader above them, people barely know one exists.

Next comes one whom they love and praise.

Next comes one whom they fear.

Next comes one whom they despise and defy.

When a leader trusts no one, no one trusts him.


The great leader speaks little.

He never speaks carelessly.

He works without self-interest and leaves no trace.

When all is finished, the people say

“We did it ourselves.”
— Lao-tzu
