And then there's this asshole.

Even as his lackeys were scrambling to cover for him, Trump was hiding in a bathroom somewhere in the White House tweeting away their spin jobs.

"Yeah, I did that shit. So what?"

What Trump and his MAGA cultists fail to understand is that his decision to declassify something on a whim is a threat to our national security. He just put Americans at risk because he wanted to look like a big shot to his Russian handlers.

Our allies will not be willing to share sensitive intelligence with us for fear of our president just blurting it out during dick measuring sessions and compromising assets. Compromising assets, by the way, means getting motherfuckers killed because you gave them away during an operation.

This lack of communication will hinder our intelligence community's ability to detect new threats and monitor old ones. It will put a hole in that safety net.

I wonder how many friends the president has left in the intelligence community now. I'd wager less than before.

You can see the buzz of bots all over twitter attempting to damage control this new Trump scandal. Ignore it. Fuck Podesta. Fuck Clinton. I'll make a deal with the MAGAs right now:

You can lock Clinton and Podesta up if we can lock Trump up. Two for one. How about it?

And you have to stop acting like you give half a fuck about Seth Rich. You're just using a dead man as a prop for your agenda and it's pretty disgusting.

But, seriously, who's fooled by the "What about Clinton!?" shtick anymore?

Do better, Russia.

Blogging amidst this madness.

I'll be honest; I can't keep up.

If the goal of the Trump regime is to confuse and fatigue spectators into silence then it may well be working. At least on me.

I'm learning so much about our political system each day, which is nice, but the lesson I keep learning is that the president can pretty much do whatever the fuck he wants. I bet Obama is kicking himself for being so conservative with his use of power. Trump gives zero fucks about ethics, optics, conflicts, politics... It's like we made the Joker the president. He's a dog chasing cars. He just does things.

But is there light at the end of this dank, dark tunnel? Lots of people say yes. The rumors rumbling through the twittersphere, and elsewhere, whisper "Grand jury" or "Sealed indictment" urgently. I want to believe... But I've been hurt before.

All the while, the tweets! The tweets!

It's a fitting future, really. That we would have a Nixonian scandal live tweeted from a dark corner somewhere in the White House.

"Where's the president?"

"I don't know. He gave me the slip again. Is he in Ivanka's room?"

"Negative. He's tweeting. HE'S TWEETING!"

"All agents, be advised. We have a Code Brown on Tweety Bird! I say again, Code Brown! Check all the bathrooms and closets! This is not a drill!"

It'd be a whole lot funnier if it wasn't a thing that probably has happened and does happen. This fucking guy is an embarrassment. An absolute disgrace.
