It was the Clemson University football team, winners of the National College Football Championship. It's traditional for winners of national competitions to be invited to the White House for a photo op with the President.
However, 45 couldn't even manage this without managing to put his his foot in it:
Someone should do a t-shirt
"I got invited to lunch at the White House and all i got was a lousy Big Mac"
I just got sent a better one: (for those who can't see the picture, Trump inside doorless, windowless enclosure being built by a trainee or someone like that.)That'd solve a great many problems in one fell swoop if it were to actually happen.
Wouldn't it be cheaper to fill the doorways of the Oval Office with concrete?I just got sent a better one:
That ruins it for #46.Wouldn't it be cheaper to fill the doorways of the Oval Office with concrete?
Guess that will keep some lawyers busy for a while then...Word is (fingers crossed) that DT will declare an emergency about the funding of the Wall.
It makes a mockery of the concept of a national emergency - the mere fact that he's been debating whether to declare it for nearly a month means it isn't an emergency!Word is (fingers crossed) that DT will declare an emergency about the funding of the Wall.
Whose fingers are you suggesting should be crossed?Word is (fingers crossed) that DT will declare an emergency about the funding of the Wall.
The BBC World Service is reporting this. Credited to "a White House spokesperson" in the 9pm news bulletin. Newshour is on next, so no doubt there'll be more information there.Word is (fingers crossed) that DT will declare an emergency about the funding of the Wall.
Well, it's entirely possible that this will be the straw that breaks the GOP's back(ing) for Trump, so maybe everyone's?Whose fingers are you suggesting should be crossed?
It's alternatively true.Is this true: https://streamable.com/6ef7p
Hopefully doing something like this will be the final nail in the coffin for his presidency as there will have to be legal challenges to this latest moment of stupid, and this is the country we want to have closer ties to?
In any other time with any other president this would be a nail in the coffin. Right now, with this one... nope. Normality and common sense have gone out the window.
politician uses lies and Russia to get elected, despite more people voting for his opponent and people wonder why they don't want him to do what he promised, primarily as surprisingly there are a lot of people smarter than a trump supporters.Politician keeps election pledge, and everyone is outraged.
Ah, Russia.
Trump will win a second term so there's going to be many more years of the complaining.
Perhaps so.
Trump and Brexit are what happen when people throw abuse and insults at people, instead of sitting down to have a civilised discussion and debate. Jonathan Pie's video of how Trump won nails it for me.
Politician keeps election pledge, and everyone is outraged.
Trump and Brexit are what happen when people reject being told their concerns are meaningless by the incumbent establishment.
Absolutely agree on this point however. But what has happened since has been even worse with both sides polarising and flying towards the left and right and refusing to engage at all.
So to protect your country you take money away from those whos business it is to protect it!? Some great logic their Mr. TrumpThe money for the wall comes partly from the Pentagon. So just redistribution of money.
Politician keeps election pledge by using the extreme pretence and facade of an 'emergency', and everyone is outraged.
True, it's a redistribution of money, but it was always going to be - declaring a national emergency doesn't make any new money available.The money for the wall comes partly from the Pentagon. So just redistribution of money.
