Head gasket fully blown

I take into account that the following quote comes from CNN; but really what other person in the world could give this much fodder in one 20 minute to the general public. Is this not really unacceptable and would it not would be refreshing to see even saskfarmer admit that no human being should be endowed with all the known human species faults (in one body)

Trump's 'Fox & Friends' rant was beyond unhinged
Michael D'Antonio


(CNN)It began with the hosts of "Fox & Friends" beaming at him through the camera, like parents besotted with a first child.

Then, obviously triggered by CNN's Town Hall with former FBI Director James Comey -- "I watched leaking, lying Comey last night. ... I hated to do it" -- President Donald Trump launched into a disjointed rant that revealed his mind to be a frightening and chaotic place.

There, he is practically perfect and just about everyone is out to get him.
The hosts' smiles turned to sober looks of concern as a decompensating Trump lurched from one topic to the next. Highlights included:
• That Comey has "been leaking for years. ... He did an illegal act and he said it himself in order to get a special counsel against me. ... He is guilty of crimes."
• His longtime "fixer" Michael Cohen, who was recently raided by the FBI, is invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination in connection with an adult film star's lawsuit "because he's got other things, he's got businesses. ... But I'm not involved." Besides, Cohen only did "a tiny, tiny little fraction" of the legal work Trump needed.
• Investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 election are a "witch hunt" that have placed a "phony cloud" over him.
• He deserves an "A-plus" grade thus far in his presidency.
• "You look at the corruption at the top of the FBI. It's a disgrace."
• Trump's nominee to run the Department of Veterans Affairs withdrew because Sen. Jon Tester, who revealed serious questions about his performance as White House physician, was motivated by politics.
• Trump's Justice Department, which oversees the most important probe, is filled with people "who shouldn't be there," and thus the President is "disappointed" in the department's performance.
• Trump failed to acknowledge his wife's birthday with a present because "I'm very busy to be running out looking for presents, OK?"
In roughly 20 minutes Trump aired his thoughts and feelings at a manic rate that reminded me of the comedian Robin Williams at his peak.
Hillary Clinton, CNN ("fake news") and Kanye West all got their mentions. The difference, of course, is that Williams was a brilliantly funny man. The President wasn't trying to be funny at all. He was instead making a case for himself as a great leader besieged on all sides by terrible enemies.

Trump: Cohen case doesn't have to do with me 01:33
Trump's paranoia, a lifelong trait that he has admitted is part of his makeup, was so evident in his monologue that it constitutes a case study in delusion.
At one point he noted, "I'm fighting a battle against a horrible group of deep-seated people." At another he announced, "Look at others CNN, they will have a council of seven people and of the seven people everyone is against me. Where do they even find these people?"
As "Fox & Friends" co-host Brian Kilmeade then offered his own seemingly disconnected observation -- "I'm not your doctor"-- he expressed what many viewers, including me, must have felt: Trump was on the verge of some sort of meltdown. He needed not an interviewer but an intervention.

Indeed, no medical degree is required to recognize that the President had gone off the rails. Jumping from topic to topic, he offered raw emotions, non sequiturs and florid exaggerations. His VA nominee is deserving because he has a fine son at the US Naval Academy. The porn star he is alleged to have had sex with is "crazy Stormy Daniels."
A president's words matter, which is why every president in modern times has taken care to speak in a coherent and measured way so he could be understood. Some, such as George W. Bush, were chided for their occasional struggles with the English language. But their words never indicated they were unreliable or unhinged.
Trump sounded as if he wrote down a bunch of phrases on little scraps of paper, tossed them into a hat and then took them out, one by one, to shout out on live TV.
Trump's performance was a disturbing reflection of both his undisciplined mind, and his unprincipled character.
It was an abuse of his office, and of the American people who deserve much more than the sloppy, emotional, self-indulgent performer who seems to be pretending he's President.
Even the cheery hosts of "Fox & Friends" turned grim-faced as Trump ranted, and it was left to Kilmeade to put a stop to the babbling.
"We could talk all day but looks like you have a million things to do," he said, as if to remind Trump that he is President of the United States. Trump took the hint and ended the performance, leaving the world to tremble at the madness.

Even the American ranchers are disillusioned with the clown - as explained here by Mike Callicrate of R-Calf among other organisations. Not much swamp draining going on -- just more of the same.

What do you expect when an obnoxious reality TV host becomes POTUS!

The problem with the US electorate is there are too many people like SF3 who are so hyper partisan that they will elect any corrupt asshole on their side with shit for brains.

What a gullible bunch of fools.

Who would believe that a rich New York shyster with daddy's money, who made many a crooked deal, suddenly become the savior of the ordinary working guy? LMAO!

And Trump thinks Putin is a good guy! His buddy! Those compromising Trump videos must be real good.

And some notable posters on Agriville have also praised Putin, which should not go unnoticed by those who believe in freedom, democracy and the rule of law.

went down few times this winter to various places and I could not believe how many people admited they voted for Hillary, and now we're so glad Trump was in! and also said they vote Trump next time to, even though he is a bit over the top lol. the worst part is that most Americans know we have a clown for a PM usually they never even new where Canada was, years before.

Okay you like Trump and don't like Trudeau. "Bit over the top" hardly describes Trump. Numerous high profile Republicans have nothing good to say about Trump and think he is not fit to be POTUS.

They're not about to dump him now. But if the Republicans lose the mid terms, or Mueller finds Trump obstructed justice or conspired with Russia to interfere in the election, they will abandon ship quickly.

Trump may have a mind that races a bit fast, he covers a lot of ground in a short time. But what I see is a country humming along fiscally and without much unruliness, not to say that there aren’t some bumps.
Kim jung un has somewhat turned into a human being. Not any wars other than the slime hole in Syria.
All in all a B+ or an A, except for the whiners Demsand CNN.

Meanwhile the Canucks have a government digging so deep into the pockets of working people and taxes putting the price of everytthing into orbit, we can never retire. Work your way into the dirt so you can finally have a rest. And as soon as your kids can handle a pitch fork put em to work.

Chuck....you are not talking to an audience of one... nor two persons... nor 2%... nor 20 per cent but more likely half the electorate.

And like trying to reason with you on other matters of importance; neither they nor you is much inclined to listen to either the facts or the fake news (using critical thought); nor reason nor science. Its more likely that firmly held convictions and beliefs acquired over decades must die slowly for any perceptible progress. That requires continued patience and slow
l..e...a...r...n...ing but it will come about with some compromises, education and luck and the changes that are moving slowly even when they aren't generally being noticed by the currently "50%" on either side.
