Donald I, emperor of the world.

Leavitt was a well drilled professional cold blooded liar. Not going to be easy to replace.

My point exactly.

John McCain was an honourable man.
Can’t quite believe he was a republican.
The fact that Trump managed to disrespect him in death is a feather in his hat.

Trump hates people more popular than himself and besides, he doesn't care who he treaded on as long as got power. Mafioso instincts honed in mafioso New York in the 90's.

The late, great Mrs Merton quote comes to mind.

Karoline Leavitt was excellent at the job she was employed to do. Tough act to follow, trying to find someone as good at spinning and telling lies and deflection.

I've actually always found it a weird job, whether it's a Democrat or Republican President: the Press Secretary seems to need to be across all policy in minute detail, and their word is given as much weight as POTUS's, it seems... the fact that it's a singular person carrying all that responsibility for articulating policy on the hoof is a bit nuts. Even more so when the brief is to articulate endless, verifiable lies.

I wonder if these memes don't say more about the fantasies of the people who post them than any reality.

There's enough material to criticise in Trumpworld without getting into sexism, imo.

Are you saying that Trump isn't sexist and surrounding himself with young girls regardless of their qualification to do the job.

Actual Quote

“You know, I’m inspecting. The girls are standing there with no clothes on. And you see these incredible looking women , and so, I sort of get away with things like that”.

Some more background:

At least four women who competed in a Miss Teen USA beauty pageant told BuzzFeed News that Donald Trump walked into their dressing room while the contestants as young as 15 were undressing.

Mariah Billado, the former Miss Vermont Teen USA, tells Buzzfeed that the now 70-year-old Republican presidential candidate caused a panic in the dressing room of the 1997 pageant when he barged in unannounced as the young women were changing.

However, she says Trump shrugged off the intrusion, saying something along the lines of: “Don’t worry, ladies, I’ve seen it all before.”

There's enough material in Trumpworld to take him apart for *his* fantasies about dating his daughter and him surrounding himself with young women of a certain type (curiously, like Ivanka). I think NCAP doesn't hold back on Trump men whose qualifications/intelligence are questionable, so I don't think there's any double standard going on here.

Incidentally (and maybe not related at all), a Reform candidate fantasises about abusing his own daughter in the ITV Reform exposé.

And they are still not guaranteed an escape via a catering truck.

But legitimate concerns and defending are women innit.

I absolutely get that Trump is a vile misogenyst. Does that give license to cast these women in a negative light?

Imo women in general get a huge amount of unevidenced criticism in most areas of social media; I have more interest in the factual reporting of these women's qualifications than a 'funny' image.
