And in other news, your "president" praised the "good bloodlines" of the notorious anti-Semite Henry Ford during his speech at the auto-maker.

Rightly, people are calling for an apology, but what is the point?  You apologize for something said in the heat of the moment, or when the imprecisions of speech lead people to misunderstand the intent.  But this isn't that.  It is a window into the brain of Donald Trump, and how he measures the value of human beings.

Oh, but his son-in-law is Jewish…

He totally believes in genetic superiority

And education

And hard work
Heh.

Yep.  All his kids are highly educated, as Trump was.  And all but Baron exhibit a commendable work ethic.  No riding on the bucks... Entitlement but with duty.

Yeah, just like the Gottis.

His old man bought his way through school and Kushner’s dad bought his way though school and you think they have some kind of noblesse oblige.

You’re a sucker.

As is the case with their old man, "highly-educated" is not the first thing I think of when I hear Don Jr. or Eric speak. My first thought is usually "I need a shower."

I think Trump believes in hard.work, in the "work makes you free" sense.

Inspiring.   I'm sure the campaign can make a bumper sticker from that.   

Though,  tbh, when you type "duty" my ear hears "dooty."

Trump is not following President Lincoln so much as General Custer.

I like commanders who don’t lead their people into massacres. America agrees.

For trump, it’s all Little Big Horn, as far as the eye can see.

Old Joke

Black Hills Historical foundation commissioned an art piece to Commemorate the 120th Anniversary of the Little Big Horn. When the painting was unveiled all present were shocked by what was represented. In the center of the Painting was a large throne upon which sat a fish with a halo and that fish was surrounded by hundreds of Sioux engaged in various forms of sexual intercourse.

The board members were furious and one dowager cried, “What is the  meaning of this?”
The artist replied, “It’s my interpretation of Custer’s last words... Holy mackerel! Look at all the fucking Indians!”

I’ll be here all week.

Trump has some General Custer (Holy Mackerel! Look at all the fucking virus) and some Colonel Musrard (trump, in the office, with a sharpie) as well.

That makes him Colon Custard, a title that fits his temperament, abilities, and the image he projects to the word.

Trump2020 = four more years under 400 pounds of colon custard.

No thanks, trump, we’re depressed enough already thanks to you.

This is why it will be hard for Trump to fire Pompeo.

Evangelicals think Pompeo is one of them (Israel, Rapture, etc) but here he is setting up for a 2024 run by courting fat cats.

He’s close to patient zero for what has hijacked the country. It will be instructive to get his full story aired out.

Hopefully by the time next cycle rolls around, he’ll have a nice spot in a federal penitentiary from which to launch his campaign.
