Yeah - he might not prance around in white hoods or Confederate flag t-shirts or replica SS uniforms, or use blatantly racist slurs in public, but he's been racist as fuck all his life, no question.

I agree - ignoring the fact that it's Trump, objectively, if someone came into my office talking like he does, I would seriously be concerned that they had either a) a mild stroke, b) a brain tumor or c) dementia.And while he might not think he's a racist, he was raised idolising a racist father and he's a goddamned sociopath, so if the Klan hood fits his puffy orange head...

I read somewhere, IIRC, that the military can make recommendations, but that the decision is solely up to the next of kin. I've been thinking that, since Johnson was separated from his troops before being killed, that his killers might have mutilated his body in an atrocious way. So far, though, it's all speculation.

Maybe he'll go back to that greasy Bannon-esque stomach doc he went to for his other "physical." The guy who could state with complete certainty that he was the fittest president ever.

Rachel pronounces that sort of "u" more like a short "o" in other words beside "multiple." Sounds like some kind of regional accent.

I object to your characterization of Our Bevelod Presidnet as "fuckbonkers", $5F. He is, in fact, fartbronkers, and every other time he opens his mouth, the stench of the Stupid is overwhelming....

Oh, Lady, I hadn't heard that they told her not to open the casket.

and dotard! brings back memories of my Nana, who was fond of saying “(s)he’s gone dotty” if she observed signs of dementia in some of her elderly friends.

The average Idaho potato has a better memory than Trump.

I attended an Ivy League college (more prestigious than Penn) and while I didn't graduate, most of my friends did. They're all very bright people, some amazingly so, and not one of them would say to someone "I'm a very intelligent person".

They did. It was the one where the cartoon bear runs for office.

Well, if he had one, he was pointing to the general vicinity of where it could be expected to lodge.

The second thing to decline is the mind. I don't recall what the first is.

Yeah, but that's not all brain in those hideous white shorts.

This is "smartest person in the room" syndrome. If you are the smartest guy in the room, you have nothing to lrarn by being there. In other words, just another Trump fetish.
