The shit storm continues.
Labor Secretary Nominee Andrew Puzder has withdrawn his nomination.
By the way, not since George fucking Washington has a President gone this long without a full (or nearly full) staff.

George HW was March 17. Obama not till April 28.

George HW was March 17. Obama not till April 28. Trump still has 6 cabinet members waiting to be confirmed and 1 of those 6 just withdrew his nomination. By this point in their Presidency Obama had 3 left, Clinton had 1 left, HW Bush had 4 left, Reagan had 1 left and Eisenhower had 1 left. All other Presidents were running with full staffs except for George Washington who was in the middle of creating a government. He didn't have a full staff till September.

Pudzer appears to have withdrawn himself from the running because it was clear that too many Republicans were unwilling to tow the party line for him. If you vote for putting the fox in charge of the hen house, you'll have to answer for what happens next. They've got enough problems as it is.

Donald Trump held a press conference to announce the new Labor Secretary nominee and the media annihilated Trump. You could watch videos or read a transcript, but the real gem is Trump blaming everything on Obama. To quote him: "I inherited a mess." What the fuck is this n***a on? He hasn't even tackled any Obama policies except for early stages of removing Dodd-Frank. He has spent his first month on Muslim bans and Mexican walls and one of the worst staffs in recent memory. Any issues he has is his own doing.

Trump thinks HE inherited a mess? Obama inherited a major economic recession and a war with no end in sight. Trump would have it easy, if only he and his staff would just STFU. All of the troubles they've had since day one are of their own making.

There was no way Puzder was going to be accepted. He's a piece of shit who should never have even gotten this far. It is keeping in line with the rest of Trump's picks though, which have all been deliberately controversial and batshit crazy, so I guess I gotta give that to him; he's consistently terrible.

Looks like former Navy Seal Robert Harward, Trump's pick to replace Flynn as National Security Adviser, has turned him down.

Donald Trump will or will not use the National Guard to round up undocumented immigrants. The AP leaked the info from an 11-page memo floating around two weeks ago. White House saying that was an "early early" discussion that never materialized.
Yeah... but... it WAS considered and might still be done. So...?
California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas were the targeted states.

Milo is an obnoxious troll but he plays the part and his followers love him for it. When he says something though and the only response from Wilmore is 'go fuck yourself,' yeah no wonder your show got cancelled.

Milo Yiannopoulos is not someone who warrants greater debate than "go fuck yourself." He has no interest in debating in earnest and just says wildly offensive things as fact. It's like trying to have a rational conversation with The Joker.

You know, I guess we should be happy that Trump is spending so much of his time bitching about the media instead of actually doing the awful things he wants to do.

The Republicans confirmed an anti-EPA person to head the EPA, only days after putting an idiot in charge of education.

Today on Trump News:
Trump's lawyer and a Russian real-estate agent, along with former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, were working on a plan to remove Russian sanctions. Scandal. Scandal. Scandal. I hope this leads to impeachment.
Sweden mad cause Trump spread lies about Sweden terrorist attacks at his rally. Trump is pissing off Sweden. Sweden.
If that wasn't bad enough, Trump pissed off Chris Wallace, host of his favorite show Fox & Friends. Wallace criticized Trump for calling the press the enemy of the people and for misquoting Thomas Jefferson. Shit, even Fox News has turned against Trump.
All we need is for John McCain and Lindsay Graham to grow balls and we might finally begin impeachment.

It's like trying to have a rational conversation with The Joker. Yup. Wilmore did start to engage with him in debate and then Milo started acting like a **** and calling people stupid. He earned that, "go fuck yourself". Edit:Apparently I found the only curse this board with censor. It rhymes with punt.

Trump fired a member of the National Security Council for talking shit about him.
So in only a month he fired the Attorney General, a member of the Security Council, his National Security Advisor resigns in disgrace and one of his cabinet nominees withdraws his nomination.

Trump plans on defunding PBS, but it costs taxpayers more money to keep his wife & kid at Trump Tower than to pay for PBS.
