Forum Post: Should a president seem so...engorged and proud of himself(?) as he announces war?

His little hole of a mouth cinching in and out as he can't hide his swollen ego. It was really gross to watch that. He was trying to seem like he was "teaching bad guys a lesson" and a strong leader. But how many kids will our bombs kill I wonder? War is never about lessons it is a trade off always even in the best of causes there will be uncounted tragedy and unknowable suffering. A nearminded imbecile getting off on power was all I could see...anyone else?

Who also happened to give Scooter Libby a pardon. In case you are too young to remember...Scooter Libbly was involved in the outing of Valerie Plame a CIA operative working undercover in a dummy oil company set up to catch illegal arms dealers...her husband an agent assigned to investigate yellow cake uranium in Niger reported that Hussein did not get yellow cake uranium and he refused to cooperate with Bush admins lies that they used to declare war on Iraq and as the Downing Street memos were being released. (Memos between tony Blair Britains Prime Minister and Bush discussing faking uranium investigation findings in order to go to war with Iraq). So they (members of the Bush admunistration) tried to get his wife Valerie Plame...um killed...in retaliation publicly issuing her name in a major newspaper article. This leak was found to have been done with malice and the specific intent of retaliation and release of an undercover working in the field on a dangerous mission CIA operative.

So conspiracy to commit treason and attempted murder gets a presidential pardon? Does Trump even read news?

And if Scooter was a fall guy for the Bush administration serves him right for hiding their crimes. That is what you get for falling on that sword asshole...and not standing up for justice....you don't get a fucking pardon. How many weapons like chemical weapons got traded for oil that Plame was investigating...When the operation was forced to shut down?

That teardrop leak of the Bushit-dick-chainy regime's arc de la vie leading to this pardon of the Bullshit-trumpery regime are both politics gone amok, desperate acts by the vermins of the nether-states ( the fistula between Tacos on the Gulf and the penile implant detached via tectonics from Africa ).

His gleefulness at sighting the teardrop monuments probably originated from his giving cover to his desperate gift toss to the polluters before he may be forcefully removed from his office to live in an upgrade befitting his stature.

Some conjecture that scooters pardon was a message to Drumpf's criminal flunky's who are under charges by the Mueller investigation to keep their mouths shut and Drumpf will pardon them.

Seems about right. Our politicians forget who they serve. We are a country of common men and women. We are workers, we are families, we are mostly broke. We are capaple of great beauty in the best of circumstances and even the worst. We struggle within ourselves perpetually pondering our existence on this earth and all our flawed decisions. We long for joy, hope, and beauty and time before we die to fully live our lives and transform ourselves into something of purpose and wonder and love. Humans can't be kept. Our minds are free and yet we struggle to have our lives match our dreams ...for the New World Order seeks to reign in human beings. To structure our lives in ways that bind not just the body but to defeat and subserviate the mind....our hope our creativity and kindness and love. The American Heritage foundation Alec and all the rest won't rest until we march to the beat of corporate ownership and rule and adapt to our station as rented commoners. Humans to them are just objects to be used abused tested broken and discarded...they believe in the right of wealth and ownership by the few to determine the fate and quality of life and put limits on the dreams of the many. The people pushing this agenda lost themselves long ago. Their brains got the idea that power would help them find it...but they wander deeper and deeper into a dangerous dark well that will lock them shut and forever seal their fate and story... Those who bound and hung humanity on their great room wall.

It's a "Bring it on! I dare you in the [so-called] deep state are scared because I AM the PRESIDENT who can LEAK ANYTHING with impunity." It's cracked bullshit alright -- President is NOT a King. He should be glad that he's NOT a King because if he were, he probably would have already been outed and laid down six-feet-under. He has constitutional rights as every U.S. citizen does but with peculiarities such as not being entitled to a citizen-jury trial due to his special position. Politicians will decide his fate so I'm somewhat concerned about the fairness.

As Mao can live with the cracked bullshit within the mysterious white pootinium? grounding object 》Grundlage der Entspannung?《, we in the U.S. know that he's subject to checks and balances rendering his convulsions ineffective but the object itself has a Retardant crack. Many experienced old-hands have been fired or resigned and many appointment vacancies in the current administration had never been filled. Just imagine pootinium exploding Unchained! Yeah, there'll be "trillion-dollar deficits as far as the eyes can see," quasi-paraphrasing David Stockman who resigned in disgust as Reagan's Budget Director after Reagan's [trickle-down] supply-side economics had produced phantom revenue growth from the tax cut.

It figures that the fat cats being given more tax money will simply buy bigger houses, luxury yachts, etc. than toil harder and longer at the office to generate more revenue. It's sailing time, dude!

Surely house prices shot up as a result and my apartment rent was tripled in barely a year. :( I suspect that disruptions like this caused societal ills, including affluent Whites having been murdered.

Then a big tax increase (especially social security and Medicare, increased retirement age) was required to right the quickly sinking fiscal ship. Hallelujah! Now we are well covered by the "Social Security/Medicare Trust Fund." I think that we've been swindled yet again. "Do you trust me?" T. Rust shall make us hole!

Why do you think the Russians dared to attack U.S. personnel in Syria? Hadn't Tyrannosaurus "tweeted" that the U.S. would just cut the military engagement there short and run home, to undercut his own Secretary of State Rex Tillerson shortly after Tillerson had just committed to the stakeholders over there an indefinite U.S. stay? It was unfair to Tillerson. Geopolitically inexperienced Obama (Sarkozy, thanks for mentoring him, nevertheless) announced schedule for U.S. troop withdrawals, too. That turned out rather badly, didn't it? Of course, the Shia government of Iraq (maybe it was due to the evil influence of Iran from next door) not knowing how or desiring to govern a multi-sectarian country freed from the Husseins was partly to blame. Here's why an old-hand at governance might have done better over there, however much I hate Colonialism or Imperialism. Turkey seems to have relapsed into theo-autocracy dreaming of recapturing the oppressive "gories" of the long-defunct Ottoman Empire. Even a turkey has recently tried to peck a feather off of the tweeting-and-fleeing eagle.

Tyrannosaurus is very baffled but its sheer incompetence is the greatest deterrence I've hardly dreamt of. Pootin must be regretting Rustia's cracking efforts helping to erect Tyrannosaurus, too, because it succeeded. A eagle with no restraint of military or political experience and its head cut off clawing around nuclear weapons is a most fearsome spectacle.

Yeah, Tyrannosaurus scared the shit out of me due to how close we got to the edge of the Abyss. I never dreamt that I would ever say that Kim Jung-un could be "stabilizing" but haven't I just said it, remember Guam? Kim isn't as crazy as Tyrannosaurus' charge of "Little Rocket Man" suggests, wow!!! It's Cetacean Park time (not "Jurassic" Park, I hope.)

Reagan, though very scary at times, had an Alzheimer's earnest grand vision or a lifeguard's "heart" that pulled us through but Tyrannosaurus is just fickle with no heart, head, or morals ( Scooter Libby's pardon is an atrocious droopy dick-wagging at the intelligence apparatus which works for him and may save him from a palm-nut attack.) Hmm, have I suddenly discovered finding myself being in a Make-America-Zilth Atrociously M.A.Z.A. "family?"

It's a "Bring it on! I dare you

I disagree - it's more like a pathetic plea (without coming right out and saying it - which I admit sounds too smart to be the Orange ones message) to his criminal hench people to stay quiet and if you go to jail covering for Me (good ol loyal to his people Donnie) then good ol Donnie will pardon you.

Maybe once the pardons flow in earnest through his clogged-up flush-toilet throne, all shit will overflow. Then an impeachment proceeding for "obstruction of justice" may be brought against him. We are a nation of Law, NOT Man. Besides, he's at most a Man-baby so far, currently being pampered at the adolescent daycare center called the White House. Hmm, is that why the 》Grundlage der Entspannung《 object close to Mao was (pootinium?) white? It was surely mysterious, round, and smooth, probably of cosmic significance for the cracked bullshit.
