Token House ‘Negro’ said what?

I guess he is an improvement.

Blushing aside, if that’s not kissing the ring — a near-synonym for “an endorsement” — I don’t know what is.

It’s not Biff’s ring that’s being kissed by Scott and the other pathetic sycophants.

I feel like this is waiting for a sexy Chuck Tingle novelization

There is a ring of muscle in that general area…

Yeah. Someone else comes to mind too, for me.

None of these people study even recent history, do they? Only two of the people who ran against Trump in 2016 ended up working in his administration: Ben Carson and Rick Perry. Carson was, I believe, initially the only black member of Trump’s cabinet and he was given Housing and Urban Development. And Perry was given Energy, but he was the first candidate who dropped out of that race, not even making it past September, 2015. Trump is playing with these guys, just like he did with Christie and Romney. He will finds ways, like this press conference, to get them to humiliate themselves, and then he will give them nothing. I don’t know why they keep doing this.

[Grey_Devil]

It boils down to keeping engagement with his cult base and profiting off them

[danimagoo]

Yeah but that’s not going to work. It didn’t work for Romney and Christie. They just got embarrassed and discarded.

[Grey_Devil]

I still think there’s money to be made by MAGA association. At some point i’m sure it’ll run dry but they’re desperate and they know they can’t easily pivot to another political party

[John_Abbott1]

And their kisses involve an awful lot of tongue.

[danimagoo]

Of course there is, but not for disloyals, which is how the MAGA base will view these guys, because that’s already how Trump has characterized them.

Dr. Tingle has far more class than that.

I’m hoping he’ll give them nothing because he can’t give them anything, what with being cooped up in a prison cell and all.

…that’s where the Special Glands are.

Beaver anal secretions are sometimes used to flavor vanilla, treat anxiety

I believe that Trump’s anal glands work similarly. This explains the long and never-ending line of sycophants seeking to stick and keep their noses in there, in spite of their own misgivings about – or receipt of actual verbal abuse from – Trump. E.g. it doesn’t matter what Trump said about Heidi Cruz, because Trump’s secretions are – and make Ted Cruz feel – that special.
