Notable line from article (emphasis mine):

Senior administration officials said that the president has been known to affect an Indian accent and imitate Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who in an Oval Office meeting last year told him, ā€œNever has a country given so much away for so little in returnā€ as the United States in Afghanistan.

This doesnā€™t seem to have attracted much attention, then again, Trump is the least racist man on Earth. But stillā€¦

of course they made sure to get the projection machine running even before the conversation starts, dropping ā€œtrickle downā€ themselves to describe the fed paying for infrastructure. I swear, at the end of four years, no words will mean anything anymore:

"Instead of sending taxpayer money to DC only to have it eventually trickle back down to communities along with a host of new restrictions and requirements, the President wants to allow communities to keep more of their funds and make their own decisions, and to simplify the federal bureaucratic maze.ā€

That is some grade A piss/rain.

When my 3yo daughter cleans her plate at dinner, we have a little ritualized joke where I pretend to be confused and concerned that the food has disappeared to: ā€œ______, um, where did all the food go?ā€ and she answers ā€œmy mouth!ā€ and we celebrate. Thereā€™s a metaphor in here somewhereā€¦
