Donald Chump Small and Exposed

The unelectable Kari Lake is in the news.  Chump's choice to head the Voice of America is talking immigration.  Natalie Venegas (NEWSWEEK) explains:


During a Saturday appearance at AmericaFest in Phoenix, Lake spoke about Trump's deportation plan.

"We're sending people back to their homeland, and we're going to be freeing up our country for the citizens of this country, but we've got to make sure that they [the media] don't spin it. You know they are going to try and spin it and they are going to try and make it look like the worst thing in the world," Lake said.

She added: "I see it as human beings heading back to their homeland. They will go there and make their homeland better and we will make our homeland better...We're going to have to push back when the fake news tries to take everything President Trump is going to try to do to make our country great and they are going to try and spin it in the opposite way."


Really?  And will that include Donald's dom Elon Musk as well?  Will he be sent back to his homeland in South Africa?   Elon's parents weren't American citizens and he was born in South Africa.

Regardless, at the Turning Points USA event -- a detail NEWSWEEK skimps on -- has finally found her equals in the sewer that they live in:


In December 2017, The New Yorker published an article by Jane Mayer showcasing interviews with former minority members of TPUSA. Former staff members said they witnessed widespread discrimination against minorities in the group; "the organization was a difficult workplace and rife with tension, some of it racial," The New Yorker said.[14][129] One former employee, an African-American woman, said she was the only person of color working for the organization at the time she was hired in 2014; she then said that she was fired on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The article also said that Crystal Clanton, a leading figure in the organization who had served as the group's national field director for five years, and whom Kirk had praised in his book Time for a Turning Point as "the best hire we ever could have made", had texted to another Turning Point USA employee, "I hate black people. Like fuck them all ... I hate blacks. End of story." Kirk responded to the revelations by saying that "TPUSA assessed the situation and took decisive action within 72 hours of being made aware of the issue."[14] Justice Clarence Thomas, who hired Clanton after she left TPUSA, later commented on the incident regarding her text messages, stating, "I know Crystal Clanton and I know bigotry. Bigotry is antithetical to her nature and character."[130]

In the Hillsdale College Collegian, opinions editor Kaylee McGhee wrote an article that referred to TPUSA as a "reactionary cancer" rather than a group supporting real conservatism that is "supposed to preserve the timeless principles of liberty and equality for all".[131] In June 2018, conservative radio talk show host Joe Walsh resigned from the TPUSA board because Kirk was too closely tied to Donald Trump. Walsh said: "It's so important to not be beholden to politicians, but to be beholden to the issues ... When Charlie went to work for Trump, that crossed that line. You can't advance Trump and advance these issues."[132]

During October and November 2019, Kirk launched the Culture War college tour of speaking events with appearances from many conservatives such as Donald Trump Jr., Lara Trump and Kimberly Guilfoyle. These events were frequently targeted by homophobic and antisemitic members of the alt-right and far-right who consider TPUSA to be too mainstream and not sufficiently conservative. Concerted efforts were made by this group to ask leading questions during the Q&A sections on controversial topics such as Israel and LGBTQ issues in order to challenge the extent of the speakers' views.[133]

In November 2019, the Dartmouth Review called TPUSA an organization that promoted Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump first, rather than conservative values. The article added "True conservatives must eventually outgrow TPUSA and devote their efforts elsewhere. We must challenge ourselves by pursuing an environment of rigorous inquiry, instead of being coddled by the intellectually devoid echo chamber of TPUSA, compromising our values for recognition."[134]


The trash that Chump has to glorify in order to be in office.  Trash that blindly worships him because they've been home schooled and tricked by carnies.  Kari Lakes is just another example of that.  Tom Boggioni (RAW STORY) notes:


As part of a discussion on MSNBC on Saturday morning, the former head of the Republican National Committee suggested that Donald Trump is letting billionaire adviser Elon Musk call the shots because he's not the man he used to be.

During a spirited debate over Musk leaning on GOP lawmakers to pass a budget bill to his and Trump's liking –– while also noting they had some disagreements about the debt limit –– MSNBC "The Weekend" co-host Michael Steele pointed out that Musk was the most prominent critic of Republicans who had agreed to a compromise deal with Democrats.

With co-host Symone Sanders Townsend admitted she was surprising herself by defending the president-elect, she insisted that the billionaire Musk needs Trump more than Trump needs him.


He is old and he is aging.  Old Man Chump is 78 years old, grossly obese and a walking heart attack waiting to happen.  He'll be lucky to make it through four years in the White House without a stroke or a heart attack.  I guess he needs all the groupies and orderlies he can garner -- no matter what hellhole he has to dig them out of or jail he has to spring them from.


So this week, he and Elon tried to impose a government showdown on the American people -- something that would have cost the country millions and millions of dollars.  Chump was going to show the country how important he and his domestic partner were but instead?  They both came up short -- and stubby.  Micro.  The two princes tiny meat. 

AP notes:

The president-elect successfully pushed House Republicans to jettison some spending, but he failed to achieve his central goal of raising the debt limit. It demonstrated that despite his decisive election victory and frequent promises of retribution, many members of his party are still willing to openly defy him.

Trump’s decision to inject himself into the budget debate a month before his inauguration also showed that he remains more adept at blowing up deals than making them, and it foreshadowed that his second term will likely be marked by the same infighting, chaos and brinksmanship that characterized his first.

“Stay tuned. Buckle up. Strap in,” said Rep. Steve Womack, R-Ark., a senior appropriator.


Strap in, Steve, or strap on?


Be interesting to see Chump and all of his stupidity and all of his incompetence exposed.  Over and over.  For four years.  If his heart doesn't give out or if his stooges don't run out of the White House with pitchforks when they realize just how badly he conned them.  


Carl Gibson notes:


 In a Saturday interview on MSNBC, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) reminded host Ali Velshi and his viewers that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) needed Democratic support in order to prevent a shutdown. She added that "every single [continuing resolution] has had to have Democrats provide the votes" as dozens of members of Johnson's own conference routinely go against him due to government spending concerns.

However, Crockett said one of the more shocking moments of the past week for her was an ultimately unsuccessful effort for Republicans to cut $190 million worth of funds appropriated for pediatric cancer research. While senators ended up unanimously re-inserting language into the final funding measure that secured passage of the Gabriela Miller Kids First Reearch Act 2.0, Crockett observed that Republicans were the ones to recommend axing it – while keeping other money set aside for Trump's inauguration.


And that's who Chump truly is.  A minor hanger-on who was never really that wealthy and certainly never well mannered.  A cheap social climber who's never done an honest day's work and never valued anyone but himself.  


90 million for himself and he'll rob from children with cancer to get his ands on it. 


And these sorts of reveals that will turn even MAGA idiots against him in the end.
