What an appalling crass POS Trump is.
Trump used the Armed Forces Full Honor Cordon soldiers who escort fallen heroes and heads of state to usher UFC fighters past Abraham Lincolns statue like theyre celebrities on a red carpet.
Trump used the Armed Forces Full Honor Cordon â soldiers who escort fallen heroes and heads of state â to usher UFC fighters past Abraham Lincolnâs statue like theyâre celebrities on a red carpet. I am LIVID.

Putin's trying to save his economy in spite of his egocentric diasters, and TACO trying to destroy his because of his egocentrism.

Forecast from here (Richmond) up to DC is big afternoon storms. Possible hail TORNADOES and high winds.

They are just another tool in his power chest.
Are these orders even legal?

(4,310 posts)Anyone ever watch the 1993 movie "Tombstone?" It's a typical Hollywood greatly fictionalized account of the fued between the Earp family and a local group of rustlers, thieves, and all-around bad guys called "The Cowboys."
One of the supremely bad Cowboys is one Johnny Ringo -- he was a real person (May 3, 1850 July 13, 1882) and there's a good Wikipedia article about him.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Ringo
In the movie he is portrayed as an evil genius. Late in the movie is a conversation about Ringo between the characters for Wyatt Earp and the tubercular and dying "Doc" Holliday.
Wyatt Earp: "What makes a man like Ringo, Doc? What makes him do the things he does?"
Doc Holliday: "A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it."
Wyatt Earp: "What does he need?"
Doc Holliday: "Revenge."
Wyatt Earp: "For what?"
Doc Holliday: "Bein' born."
And that is Trump . . . exactly, perfectly.

(332 posts)of brutal, might makes right, bloody, fright rather than reason, more kill than skill, testosterone infused dominion, and fear of introspection (feminine vulnerability)- dont you know.
The masculine/feminine/human inadequacies of all that this narcissist demonstrates are plainly in sight tonight. They are not surprising, but they must be exposed for what they mean to the rest of us.

(19,948 posts)Most talk about one's own honor, either personal or organizational, is just hot air.
Careerism and avoiding immediate negative consequences trump honor the majority of the time.
