Jeff Tiedrich - Donald Trump has replaced the Rule of Law with the Rule of Because Fuck You, That's Why

Donny Convict isn’t that hard to figure out.

there’s nothing much going on upstairs. he’s a rudimentary lizard-brain stem hard-wired to a rancid anus-mouth. that’s the whole ball of wax. Donny’s motivated by the belief that he should have all the power, all the money and all the attention, all the time.

everything Donny does can be filtered through that maxim. the constant threats to invade sovereign nations? power. the non-stop grifting of his worshipers? money. the near-daily press conferences and interviews since his inauguration? the bottomless need for attention.

oh wait — there’s a fourth motivation at work. Donny also does things just to be a dick — just because he can, because who’s going to stop him?

(From the OP link)



Chump is speaking on Faux Noise (I think it was the Monday show)
Donny: “in the meantime, I would own this. think of it as a real estate development for the future. it would be a beautiful piece of land.”
Brett Baier: “would the Palestinians have the right to return to Gaza?”
Donny: “no, they wouldn’t.”


Jeff Tiedrich has some choice words about that one too!

Looking at some of the threads on DU this morning, I sense a whole new wave of effective anti-trump sentiment, building up. We sure as hell needed it...
