Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Unfortunately, for folks with any honor or personal morality, there is not much choice. Either jettison any vestige of self-respect or leave. This means that any āadults in the roomā left have chosen power over honor and deserve neither. This administration is a disgrace, especially when you consider that they have set up a situation where Bolton and Tillerson are considered the honorable good guys! ( just typing that)
So, if trumpās gas lit bull shit message last night was ā'American Come Backā does that mean MAGA is finished? or is āCome Backā not great?
Somebody posted this tidbit in a thread somewhere else but, this piece in Dezeen adds an AIA POV to the decree:
Of course someone probably had to point out that snub to Trump, who is too unfamiliar with - well, anything - to notice it. Either that or they decided not to point it out to Trump since being the one who points it out probably means being the one who has to hear Trump yelling about it for an hour.
Wanna bet heāll see it on Fox?
We are so so screwed.
Good point. Sean Hannity can tell Trump at a safe distance.
More than dry, this is PARCHED humor:
No āBrutalistā, eh? Too āSovietā?
And the mandate for āClassicalā feels like the right wing āWestern Civilizationā schtick.
Because it isā¦
No, he is voting with his party, so he did not break ranksā¦
Gotta cover up the killings and other criminal acts. Fascists being fascists.
āThe draft executive order specifically prohibits the use of Brutalist architecture, or its derivatives, in any circumstance.ā
Yeah, seems rather specific for such a facist, some would say, brutal decree.
Holy shit.
Romney also knows that his vote to remove the president from office will bring consequences. Already there is a bill in the Utah legislature that would allow voters to remove a sitting senator. He expects worse in the days ahead.
He was in Florida last weekend and someone at the airport called him a traitor and someone else later told him to āget with the team,ā followed by an epithet. āItās going to be there a long, long, long time,ā he said. āAnd you know, the presidentās going to, you know, use me in rallies. I mean, he likes theater, and I can be part of that. So itās going to be tough.ā
He added: āBut again, how do I say before God, I agreed to render impartial justice and let the consequences for me personally outweigh my duty to God and my duty to be to the country that I love? And thatās simply putting my head down and saying what was done was perfect, thereās nothing to see here was not something I could do.ā
Asked how well prepared he is for the attacks he knows will come, he said, āNot very well prepared. I have tried to keep myself from really thinking about that so that I didnāt lose my resolve.ā He recalled a hymn he has sung in church that he said says to do the right thing and let the consequences follow. āIām only dealing with the first part ā¦ And I know there will be consequences.ā
Thatāll teach Donnie to embarrass him at dinner!
At least it wasnāt āTacky Casinoā, his normal default.
