Replying to this here, because the original discussion has closed and here seemed the next most relevant place.

I have found myself a few times in the past week thinking, “the last time we had a president this bad, we put him on the $20 bill.”

The last time America had a leader this bad, they put him on British money.

We as a country are at the point of our media literacy being so poor, that Snopes have to debunk such an obvious joke

Isn’t “Hire the guy on TV who has absolutely no knowledge relevant to the position but who, as stated, Trump has seen on TV” basically the administration’s MO, though? Honestly if he posted some pics on facebook of himself in a MAGA hat I’d put him in the running.

Moderates are keen to promote only passive, nonviolent tactics under any circumstance, but fail to realize that when the police attack demonstrations that kind of resistance isn’t always an option. “To suggest that everyone should just stay calm and submissive amidst chemical weapons and batons is an incredibly privileged perspective,” says Ellinger-Locke. “It ignores the reality faced by demonstrators whose very lives may be at risk.”

As with everything else, this is not new. It’s just more obvious now.

Cheap punk twitter threats. Again.

Democratic FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel responded to Trump’s most recent tweet by posting the FCC rules on licensing. “One more time…this is not how it works,” she wrote on Twitter.

Bob Woodward’s new book: President Trump’s top advisers think he’s "an idiot"...

Yep.

This White House phone call is the best commercial Bob Woodward could’ve hoped...

It’s an insane asylum. Clearly they are just making shit up as they go.

During Trump’s practice session with his lawyers for a potential interview with special counsel Robert Mueller, he disastrously melted down — which led his then-attorney John Dowd to tell him, “Don’t testify. It’s either that or an orange jumpsuit.”

Holy shit.

I still think this is in old man donny’s future.

[Melz2]

Oh, I hope he goes against everyone’s advice and talks to Mueller, thinking he can BS his way through…

This makes just enough sense that I absolutely believe it.

He even got that wrong; the Gerber grow-up plan costs around $12 per month, not per year.

[alahmnat]

Well, every month is like a life-age of the Earth these days…

Over the weekend, I just watched Black Mirror for the first time since my disastrous viewing of the pilot episode; the ep White Christmas centered on tech that created AI ‘clones’ of people’s consciousness.

The awareness of the clones could be manipulated, including the perception of the passage of time - they could make one minute seem like an entire year… that’s what living under this admin is like.
