On Wednesday, Congress overcame a slight technical difficulty to pass its estimated $1.5 trillion tax bill, formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, for a second time. The momentous occasion, which will culminate in a signing by Donald Trump at a time T.B.D., was so exciting that House Speaker Paul Ryan could barely keep it in his pants. Yet despite the fact that Trump stands to financially benefit from the bill beyond his wildest, most self-serving dreams, and that its passage represents his first concrete achievement since entering office, the Queens-born billionaire wasnt in as jolly a mood as one mightve expected; apparently the lack of media praise for a bill that will hurt large swaths of the American populous was really getting to him.

(12,586 posts)WASHINGTON (Sept 18, 2017) President Trump said on Monday that he was looking into staging a display of American military might in a Fourth of July parade down Pennsylvania Avenue.
In remarks during a meeting with President Emmanuel Macron of France at the United Nations, Mr. Trump said he got the idea after watching the Bastille Day parade in Paris with Mr. Macron in July. During the parade, he could be seen gesticulating and whispering to Mr. Macron at the elaborate display of tanks, soldiers on horseback and military jets flying overhead.
I came back and one of my early calls were, I think we are going to have to start looking at that ourselves, the president told Mr. Macron. We are actually thinking about Fourth of July, Pennsylvania Avenue, having a really great parade to show our military strength.

(19,201 posts)your aids (and your 4-8 hours each day of watching FOX Noise on TV) spoon-feed you nothing but positive stories about yourself (who dreams up those lies?) and are constantly fluffing up your ego. He still hasn't been exposed to the news that a full 60% or more of Americans hate his fucking guts!
Trump lives in a separate reality which has absolutely no relation to actual reality. FOX is the biggest right-wing propaganda organization on the planet. and they do NOTHING but sit around and suck Trump's crank all day, every day. There's never a 'bad news day' in Trumpworld. Kim Jong-un wishes he had the propaganda outlets Trump has. They're both totally divorced from reality, and belong in padded cells with no windows.
Trump's supporters (his deranged cult members) see absolutely nothing amiss with Trump's treasonous, thieving ways, and are overjoyed that "libtards" are sounding the alarm to the fascism that's on a dead run in our country. That makes their day, if "libtards" are upset at the destructive policies Trump is inflicting upon 99% of Americans. They just don't get it, that they too are in the cross-hairs of Trump's tax scam bill. I - for one - am going to take great pleasure and joy in seeing their lives crumble around their ankles, and their wailing and gnashing of teeth, at being savagely burned by their "hero", Donald Trump. When they finally realize that Trump has walked all over them, and never kept ANY of his campaign promises made to them, I'm going to jump for joy. That much abject stupidity fully deserves all the mocking, ridicule, and scorn that can be heaped upon them.
Fuck Trump and his "victory parade". The only parade this country will ever have for Trump will be his funeral cortege, and it can't come soon enough.

(19,201 posts)Still showing College kids how to make bongs out of the most innocuous objects on earth, still showing them how to keep their beer ice-cold without the aid of either ice or refrigeration. If we could only harness Serge and Coleman's energies for the good of mankind, we'd be able to feed, clothe and shelter everyone on the planet. As it is, we'll just have to be satisfied that they floss the earth of greedy, dangerous scum-bags, and keep the party going hearty 24/7.
Yeah, I'll follow Trump's cortege as well, just to make sure they actually put him in the ground, and use every bit of earth available to cover the son-of-a-bitch up. Then the pissing, then more earth to cover up what the pissing has tamped down. Then piss again, and repeat. Kind of like washing your hair. Always repeat!

(10,828 posts)a parade when the Trumpster resigns or is led away in handcuffs. One of those gaudy affairs the Romans were famous for in victory: the prancing horses, the celebratory horns, the dancing women, and then the defeated barbarians rolled in cages before the public and their mighty scorn.
Yup, I could sign on for that!

(11,098 posts)We know that Trump is basically lazy and incurious. We know that Trump's staff only tells Trump what they think he wants to hear. We know that Trump gets his news from Faux News.
Might it be that Trump really has no idea what's in the tax scam? Might he really believe that the middle class will score and the insanely wealthy will be hurt? Might he really believe the public should be thrilled and organizing parades?
I'm not at all convinced but I wonder.
