Today's Tiedrich rant: SignalGate is bad. StupidFuckingIdiotGate is worse.



Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/signalgate-is-bad-stupidfuckingidiotgate

SignalGate — the group-chat shit-show that culminated with Piss-Drunk Pete texting classified war plans to a journalist — is pretty bad.

but there’s an even worse scandal happening alongside it: the President of the United States is a low-wattage imbecile who has no fucking clue — and can’t be bothered to care — what his own sewer clown cabinet is up to. how mind-bogglingly insane is it that there was a discussion about fucking air strikes and the president wasn’t part of it?

I mean, look at who on the chain: the veep, the defense secretary, the secretary of state, the director of the CIA, the treasury secretary — wait, what? Scott Fucking Hassen was on the group chat? why was he looped in on war plans, but not the President of the United Fucking States? Hassen’s a bean-counter. was he there to make sure everyone submitted their expense reports?

President Dumbfuck still has no idea what a group text even is. he’s under the impression that the whole thing was some kind of conference call. listen to a barely-conscious-sounding Donny explain how Jeffrey Goldberg ended up in the group text.

“somebody in my group either screwed up, or it’s a bad signal. y’know, it’s a bad signal, happens too.”

I can’t believe this guy was elected president. He sounds drunk. I guess he’s just drunk on power.
