I love you.
 
People need to stop acting like Comey or the media or Facebook or Russia or Hillary Clinton fired mind control beams at people to make them vote for this embarassment of an administration.

It was a close election. When an election is as close as this one was, every factor plays a critical role.
 
Hopefully whoever pulls the trap door switch.

The Apprentice: White House Special:
"Donald, you've been terminated!"

Thanks Michigan and Wisconsin for giving us four years of this.

Not really their fault for the EC existing without an amendment that give the popular vote dominance over the arbitrary system. If the system cannot be fixed without massive overhaul, at least adding that condition would solve the 'minority of minority' regime that is now the case, and will likely continue until such an amendment is added.
 
This thread has been blessed. Share with five of your friends before midnight or you will be turned into a two time losing presidential candidate.
 
I'd like to see a movie where like 3 guys think they are pulling the president's strings but none of them know about the other puppeteers and it ends up as a romantic comedy of sorts
 
We don't need wikileaks for this administration. The people actually in it are leaking everything just fine.

Oh, the places you'll go!
Oh, the things you will leak!
How exciting to share
A fresh leak sneak peek!

You've a notepad in your hand
And a tape in your shoe
SHH! Please be secret
Or else they might sue

The press is awaiting
Your scoops with great glee!
Who knows what you'll find?
We're waiting to see!

Is Trump actually a Gilly Galoot
Who hoots and galoozes
As he watches the shows
That are not where Fox News is?

Or is Bannon the devil?
Trick question, you prole!
For even Old Scratch
Has a hint of a soul

The headlines are waiting!
Ink's ready to dry!
So go forth! Get leaking!
Before we all die.
 
Guess it's as good a time as any to update my trailer...

Writer Ken Bensinger (Joseph Gordon Levitt) sits at his desk in a cubicle farm, the name "Buzzfeed" visible on the wall behind him.

While looking through his e-mail, he sees a new attachment saying "You'll want to see this." He takes a sip of coffee as he scrolls before his eyes bulge and he spits out the coffee.

Bensinger runs into an office where Miriam Elder (Maya Rudolph) is talking to Mark Schoofs (Stanley Tucci), he's panicking and holding a freshly printed document.

Bensinger: Guys, guys! I think-... I think I have a story. About Trump.
Elder: Pfft. [Taking paper] Like anybody gives a... What the-...?!

[Jump cut to Schoofs reading it]

Schoofs: No, actually I agree. I agree with the "What the-..." [Waves his hand to imply the final unspoken word].
Elder: How does this happen?

EARLIER...

Jeb Bush (Will Ferrel): Hi! I'm Jeb Bush, and I'd sure like to be your president.

Cut to:
Jeb looking disappointed in a dark room, talking to an advisor (Ben Schwartz).

Jeb: How is he beating us? I just don't get it.

Advisor: I thought you had an exclamation point at the end of your name! It's time to get to action!

Jeb: ... Yeah.
Advisor: Step up!
Jeb: YEAH!

Cut to:

Jeb: Hey... Who would I talk to about.... Hiring a spy?

Cut to:
Christopher Steele (Liam Neeson) meets with Jeb in a car in a parking garage. He's very intense.

FROM ADAM MCKAY
DIRECTOR OF "THE BIG SHORT" and "ANCHORMAN"

Steele: What is it you want?
Jeb: Well, if you could just... Find something. Like, maybe he cheated on some taxes, or maybe he said something offensive.
Steele: I'll start in Russia.
Jeb: Russia?
Steele: Russia.
Jeb: Why... why would you start in Russia?
Steele: Everything bad usually happens in Russia.
Jeb: ... Oh. [Smirks] Hey. We're kind of like James Bond and M, huh. Yeah, I'm M and you're George Lazenby.
[Steele stares, stone-faced.]

LATER

[Jeb sits in his pajamas reading the paper when the phone rings.]
Jeb: [Answers] Y'ello.
Steele: This is Steele. I have your information. It's big.
Jeb: Oh. Oh! No, that's okay. I'm actually out of the race. You don't have to-...
[Pause]
Jeb: ... Like.... Number 1?

John McCain (Bill Murray) stares at a document.

John McCain: .... Ha... Hahaha!

[In a hotel suite]
Trump: How bad are we talking?
Agent 1(Jordan Peele): ... Moscow, a few years ago.
Trump: ... Ah...
Agent 2(Keegan-Michael Key): Prostitution. Blackmail... Uh...
Agent 1: Illicit business ties.
Agent 2: And...
Agent 1: And...
Agent 2: Pee.
Agent 1: Yeah, pee.
Agent 2: [Nods]
Agent 1: People are probably gonna really latch onto... the pee.
Trump: ... Uhh...

[In an office]

Kellyanne Conway (Kate McKinnon): This might not be so bad, if it comes out. You know, maybe we could spin it. Like... You're improving Russian relations.
Trump: And, hey. Maybe there was a fire in the hotel.
Conway: [Winces]
Trump: ... And there wasn't any water. Someone had to put the fire out!

OF THE CRAZIEST SCANDAL IN AMERICAN POLITICAL HISTORY

Putin (Steve Carrell): [Chuckles nervously]

Big montage of quick cuts of shenanigans and character's reactions as the music gets to the last "Joker and the Thief" chorus repetition. Music stops.

Michael Flynn (Gary Cole) is explaining himself to Trump and staff.

Cole: Putin?! I didn't think it was a big deal. It was just dinner! ... And... horseback riding.
Trump: Oh God.
Cole: ... We Skype on occasion.

Seriously. This script needs to get into the hands of Last Week Tonight. They would actually make it.
 
I think we are all missing something very important and gratifying in all this. Bannon stepped out of his make believe world when he joined the administration and went straight to war with reality (the media) and I'm having a very good time seeing his delusional brain getting destroyed. His little weirdo website may have made him millions off the back of idiots and mentally challenged and weak minded conspiracy theory believers but he decide to pick a fight with professionals and got KO'd in round one.
 
Isn't that high treason and a death sentence?

"Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States."

18 U.S. Code § 2381

How did Bannon get KO'd? He's still in there, he's even closer with Trump now, he gets to make Flynn the fall guy, and he gathers even more power. It seems to me that his plan is working.

I don't think his plan was to have this much heat on them.

Maybe, but until any Republicans seriously suggest Bannon should be removed I don't think anything else matters. They can easily distract with whatever they want, or shutdown any congressional attempts at interference.

There's been plenty of distractions as this has gone on and here we are. I don't see how the Republicans risk public perception just for Bannon.
 
Trump hasn't really tweeted out anything exclamatory like it seemed he usually does. Wonder if to expect anything tomorrow.

Are there even rumors linking Bannon to Russia though? As far as I know he's "just" a neonazi white supremecist, and that's not enough for wide opposition unless something extra turns up.
