(His most disgusting news conference to date): Trump scolded Puerto Rico for busting his budget
Please excuse the source but there is an actual video on the Crooks & Liars website of this jackass actually saying the following:
Trump said, " Nick Mulvaney is here. And Nick is in charge of a thing called "budget."
He continued, "Now I hate to tell you Puerto Rico, but you’re throwing our budget a little out of whack, because we’ve spent a lot of money on Puerto Rico, and that’s fine, we’ve saved a lot of lives.”
Trump said "every death is a horror," but then went on a Hurricane Katrina tangent, saying, "If you look at a real catastrophe like Katrina," which lost many more lives, your "sixteen people certified' of dying from Maria wasn't really too bad at all.
"Sixteen people versus in the thousands."
After his term is up (2020) is the PERFECT time for a Third Party candidate. The Clinton Creature has destroyed the Dims and this moronic jackass has just about destroyed the Pubbies. There will never be a better time. Before they (Dims, Pubbies, 1%) destroy the planet.
EDIT: Fims/Dims

Shame on you Puerto Rico!
What were you thinking when you invited Hurricane Maria to your homeland? Oh, sure - the US will take care of us! The US will bail us out of our misery! Crybabys!
Go Herr Drumpf!

Every time this slug
opens his mouth I marvel at what a low class buffoon he is. Trump would probably be in a prison somewhere if not for being the grandson of a whore house madame.
I often wonder about his upbringing. Did no one with an IQ over 50 ever try to teach this fool anything as a child? Were his teachers so repulsed by him they didn't even try? (I know he attended Wharton. Chimpy McSmirkster graduate fromYale. Go figure.) it surprises me that no one ever taught him how to disguise his ignorant racist sociopathy. He's too freaking stupid to act 'normal' no matter the occasion.
Even the Clinton Creature knows how to pander to the plebs, and she's she's as hateful and vicious as he is.
But I'm still thankful that the Clinton Creature lost!

I'm with you, Amanda.
It boggles the mind how someone like him is POTUS. Then again, we see the Peter Principle in full play. He might have come from money, but their brothel heritage shines like a star atop a mountain on a new moon night.
As for her heinous, I'll take Herr Drumpf, as painful as it is. She would have been painful, too, but we wouldn't see it coming like we do with him.

@Amanda Matthews I have a lot better
Well it's no wonder he got elected then...
Actually, they really are more pimps, because the bodies they are selling are not their own, but ours...

to show how much of a piss poor country we have.

For a minute there
I actually thought that Trump was going to point out who was the Secretary of State who blew up the PR tax base by giving her friends tax exemptions for their luxury hotels and sweatshops. Then I remembered, it was Trump talking.
On to Biden since 1973
Clinton has him on the ropes.
This "Russia hacked the election" meme has been pure gold for Clinton. Trump is on the ropes and is having every move scrutinized and criticized by the MSM. That, combined with his own self-destructive nature, makes him one of the most impotent presidents ever.
People in Utah continue to say
that they are prepared for any catastrophe with their supplies of food and other essential items. What they don't understand is that if a hurricane as bad as Maria hit their house, any supplies that he had would have been sucked away.
The other thing that they love to say is that there are so many supplies in the background when the SAN Juan mayor is saying that she isn't getting help from the government. The supplies supposedly show that she is lying about Trump not help PR. And they have think that people aren't trying to help themselves and are doing nothing to get the supplies out.
This type of stupidity shows that they have no idea that there isn't any vehicles that can disperse them because they have been damaged, there is no gas and the roads are blocked by trees and other debris.
Trump may have been doing everything he could to help them out and the media is playing their games, or things are actually that bad there. Who knows what is the truth anymore?

Kasich and Hickenlooper are gearing up for a 3rd Party
run in 2020. And, some of the corporatists/centrists in both legacy Parties are already pushing this potential ticket--Michael Steele, for one. Kasich brought of the subject of leaving the Repubs, and going Independent this past Sunday--I think it was with either Todd or Tapper.
Per Wikipedia,
Please check out this piece, Kasich, Hickenlooper eye joint 2020 bid.
I hope Dem partisans wake up soon, since I think that those two could pull off a win. From where I sit, I imagine that a good portion of the Dem Base will get out their poms poms, and support centrist/corporatist John Hickenlooper, mostly because they'll buy into Dem Party talking points that a 'moderate' is their best chance.
From what I heard yesterday on XM Radio, 2018 is considered a 'test' for the progressive wing of the Dem Party.
IOW, if Bernie's prominent role as the Dem Leadership's Senate Outreach Chair doesn't 'bring home the bacon' in the mid-terms--meaning, win back the House and/or Senate for Democrats--the Party will likely go full bore back to advocating for the Clinton-wing of the Party in 2020.
I only hope that the 'true left' of the political spectrum recognizes this reality, and begins to think very seriously about recruiting and backing an alternative candidate to this corporatist pair of flim-flam artists (Kasich & Hickenlooper).

Everyone thinks they have the best dog, and none of them are wrong.
Trump an utter asshole?
Say it ain't so.
Is there no one in his immediate family that can pull him aside and tell him he's being 'a complete twad' (care of Alan Partridge)?
Gëzuar!!

The guy wouldn't listen. I bet Kelly would
love to do more than just pull him over. I have a fantasy of someday reading the headline:
WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF ARRESTED FOR KICKING PRESIDENT'S ASS. TWICE.

Trump said Puerto Rico’s debt was going to have to be wiped out
(as in wiped off the books) one way or another, if the people there are ever going to be able to recover — that makes a lot of sense, actually.
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=trump+puerto+rico+debt&t=ffsb&ia=web
Progressives should immediately applaud this and take him up on it, and point out it’s the same when a whole generation is being crippled by student debt, etc.
That was just
another one of Trumps frequent bouts of oral diarrhea. I often wonder if his ass ever gets jealous of all the shit that comes out of his mouth.
I'm great at multi-tasking. I can waste time, be unproductive, and procrastinate all at the same time.
Well, to be fair...
He does have to work with Congress to get disaster relief funds, and Congress is giving him shit about busting the budget. Trump did waive the matching funds requirement so PR doesn't have to foot 1/2 the bill.
WE don't know the death toll in PR
because the rescuers have not reached all the outlying villages to count the survivors. Due to a 1 week delay in receiving aid, there have been obstacles to reaching everyone. But let the moron keep raving about how Katrina was a real emergency but PR is just a waste of money for the US.
He's aiming at destroying the self-respect and pride of the Puerto Ricans as he keeps demonstrating his complete lack of empathy. How long? how long before he self-implodes?
To thine own self be true.
