Showing Original Post only (View all)'Off The Rails': Trump's Ramble In The Middle Of Cabinet Meeting Is 24-Karat Nonsense [View all]
President Donald Trump delivered a wild and rambling performance at a Cabinet meeting that ran for more than 90 minutes, ending with a long aside about interior decorating.
Trump said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer ― who is Jewish ― has abandoned the Jews and become a Palestinian, then compared Schumer to Jon Lovitzs lying Saturday Night Live character Tommy Flanagan, complete with an impression.
He described the B-2 bombers that flew to Iran for last months attack, saying they went skedaddle and then tried to define the word skedaddle.
Do you know the word skedaddle? he asked. It means skedaddle.

He spoke of flags, clocks, lamps, medallions, and more.
Then the conversation took a golden turn as Trump spoke at length about the rooms mouldings and whether they would look better with gold leaf or gold-coloured paint.
If you paint it, it wont look good because theyve never found a paint that looks like gold, he said. You see that in the Oval Office. Theyve tried for years and years. Somebody could become very wealthy, but theyve never found a paint that looks like gold. So painting it is easy, but it wont look right. And the question is whether or not we should gold leaf it.
He asked some of his Cabinet secretaries for their opinions on gold paint versus gold leaf.

OP
Someone told Trump the rich got much richer during the 'Gilded Age,' naturally he wanted in on the grift.
