I Wonder How President Obama Forced President Stupid To Shit On The Flag?


If your incoming email from Wingnut Central Command is anything like mine, first, you have sympathy and, second, it has been positively thick with hysteria over Those God Damn Overpaid NFL Negroes God Damn Disrespecting Our God Damn Flag.

You know the drill.

But what's more, my emails from Wingnut Central Command all trace the source of all this God Damn Disrespect to the leader of all nefarious and unAmerican negro activities, Barack Obama, who they are all still pretty sure once tried to ban the Pledge of Allegiance.

How then do you suppose they will explain this?  (From the Washington Examiner):
Trump sits, talks through song lowering the flag at military base amid NFL anthem controversy

President Trump sat and talked through the nightly playing of "Retreat" as the American flag was lowered on a Pennsylvania Air National Guard base during his interview with Sean Hannity.

Trump, who has been criticizing NFL players who kneel through the national anthem to protest racism, seemed caught off-guard by loudspeakers playing "Retreat." The song is played every night at military bases to signal the American flag being lowered and the end of the official duty day.

Business Insider was the first to notice Trump sitting during the song. Uniformed service members are required to stop what they're doing and salute the flag as its lowered during the song while civilians are required to place their hand over their heart.

Trump not only does not stand or place his hand over his heart, but instead talks through the song and assumes it's being played to honor him or Hannity.

People watching the rally can be seen standing for the song in the background of Trump's interview, but Trump seems to not know what the song means.

"Are they playing that for you or for me?" Trump joked to Hannity.

"They're playing that in honor of his ratings. He's beating everybody."...
Ha!  Trick question!  They'll never have to explain it because they will never hear about it in the first place because on Fox News and Hate Radio such things only rise to the level of high crimes and impeachable offenses when a Democrat does them, even when they don't actually do them.  

Instead it will sail right over their soft little heads, leaving tiny little minds untroubled by any whiff of cognitive dissonance...

...until some smartass Liberal slips it in between the turkey and the pumpkin pie over Thanksgiving dinner.  At which time it will be dismissed as Fake News and anyway Hillary Murdered Vince Foster and anyway Obummercare has killed more people than Hitler and anyway why do Libtards have to spoil everything!?



Behold, a Tip Jar!

The reichwing has done it's usual hit job on what Colin Kaepernick's original intention was with taking the knee. I may not have this totally correct, but my understanding is that he was protesting racism in America, generally, but more particularly, the murdering of blacks by Police Depts across the country, which is in no way at all subtle.

Trump has managed to make this all about disrespecting the flag, the military and the USA. As if Trump has somehow, himself, not been the Prime Example of completely and utterly disrespecting all three almost daily (hourly sometimes).

My understanding (could be wrong) is that Kaepernick actually discussed his protest with someone in the Military (or a Vet, possibly a Green Beret), whereby they agreed that taking one knee would actually be a respectful way to protest. He wasn't seated, but he was quite standing either.

Of course, uppity negroes be uppity and Trump's white supremacist base ain't trucking in that. So Trump does his best to twist the protest to being about dissing the flag, the military and the country, which NO, that's not what it's about at all.

Of course, Trump's dittoheaded brainwashed idiotic white supremacists are All Over That bc it gives them yet another excuse to exercise their right to be White Supremacist racist bigoted assholes, while pretending that they're not White Supremacist racist bigoted assholes.

Sheesh. These fugly nasty POS excuses for human beings.

Of course, somehow it IS all the fault of the Nazi Kenyan Commie Uppity Usuprer Obummer, bc, of course. Obummer is their favorite whipping boy. After all, Obama was "so divisive."

As pointed out, it doesn't matter what Trump does or does not do. His fans are so far out of touch with factual reality that I truly believe that Trump could come out on a stage, strip naked, take a dump and begin buggering kids, while lining up some of the audience and shooting them. And his fans would still go wild with blind adulation and find some means of "explaining" that what just happened didn't really happen... or it was Obama in disguise doing that... or something. I think they are that far gone.

As discussed here many times. Trump and GOP are out to erase the Black President's existence as president.

They were in the, "our first and only objective is to make Obama a one term president". Even after he won a 2nd term. Holding off on a SCOTUS for 14 months only to trash the filibuster for a Gorsuch. Who in his first appearance of the court. Decided what side of the oral arguments he was on and (characteristically) began working back on the issue to justify his predisposed position.
In doing so, he blathered a state right and Feds have no jurisdiction. Only to have Justice Ginsburg break in and ask, "where do you think "one person one vote comes from"?
The great reincarnation of a Scalia's genius supreme. We could have had a 27 year service and experience judge Garland with an exemplary record.

I get Gorsuch (at my age) for the rest of my life. lets talk long term chronically acute stress!

So you could imagine my surprise watching Maddow. When she does a segment on the systematic demolition of any and all Obama progress or legacy and provides a short list.

There is hope. It can be slow arriving. Surviving until it catches up. Resisting the Herr Furor and his Horde. Not talking miracles here.
If I was, Lying Ayn Paul Rand Ryan would have his appearance at the Pearly Gates with St. Peter televised.

The look on his face when he has the wrong answer to St Peter's question. The flaming elevator appears with the hounds of hell pulling him in for something to chew on , on the way down.

Staying in my happy place thinking about a happy meal..........

As are many of the Fascist Fluffers who are paid to "mainstream" him in the Mainslime Media.

Maggie Haberman would tweet that "Trump is in tune with his followers and is effectively engaging their support".

NPR would conduct its 300th series of interviews with Trump supporters to discern their anxieties and assure us they're deserving of our understanding.

Wouldn't a military school follow all the customs for daily lowering of the flag, including saluting/standing respectfully (not kibitzing with some smart-mouthed idiot) while playing Retreat? Didn't Trump attend a military school? How could he not know that his behavior was disrespectful to The Flag?
