Roseanne show cancellation

From the start of her show's reboot Roseanne Barr was trolling the pro-Trump audience. There is no way that demographic would have let the anti-Trump messages into their living rooms without a pro-Trump wrapper. Expect her to keep it up until the political tide turns and her book comes out. This is her attempt to define what HRC meant by deplorable, and make the label acceptable to reject by the non-base. She's too smart, sharp and savvy to be so stupid.

It used to be when assholes shot themselves in the foot, it had immediate effect like RB here. She needed to have gone to Trump University to learn how to do it so you never run out of toes.

BTW, did anyone see the photo chopped retweet pic RB did of Whoopie Goldberg from an April womans march?

Whoopie wearing a Tee that said "You think I was a Nasty before, well buckle up butter cup", the shirt photo chopped a pic of trump blowing his brains out with the txt 'Make America Great Again' under the graphic image.

I bet a lot of folk like the chopped one better.

Miscalculation?

Not so smart to have her own show cancelled. (I don't follow any of these comedy show)

She just effected a cast of actors and production staff in terms of work/income, and not in any way one might consider positive. A lot of collateral damage for someone purported to be so smart.

Damage control

They're all going to sue the maker of Ambien.

I do recall hearing from more than one person that Ambien does make you stupid in the middle of the night after having taken it (not idea about long term)

I doubt Roseanne can get anywhere with blaming Ambien. But it seems to confirm the multiple anecdotic report of such effect. I suspect there maybe other Ambien users nodding in agreement.

Alcohol defense

Ambien, like ethanol, reduces your inhibitions, so the real you comes out. That is why there are nasty drunks, silly drunks, happy drunks, sad drunks, etc. The real Roseanne spoke out. Look at all the rest of the nonsense to which she subscribes. It fits.

"While all pharmaceutical treatments have side effects, racism is not a known side effect of any Sanofi medication. ...

From the (Ambien) drug maker, via Politico

And no, I don't think Roseanne is coming out with a left leaning autobiography anytime ever. The last 24 hours have cured me of that notion.

That was both surprising and great as far as a statement, pretty cheeky. Personally, we give it multiple thumbs up at our house. ;)

Great, now we can watch archival footage of Trump stump speeches about the lowest depth of democracy: Chicago politics.

Tariffs anyone?

How can you raise the price of a commodity in the face of a world glut?

Fake national security exemption to justify a tariff.

So now we destroy American finished product industries by driving up raw materials prices - all-the-while allowing import of competitive finished products unencumbered by tariffs and made with non-tariff laden raw materials.

Oops

I personally am awestruck with the ban on luxury german auto

So I guess the BMWs built in South Carolina or the Mercedes built in Alabama cannot be sold here anymore? That will really help the American economy! Don't know how it will affect the VW factory in Tennessee.

Updating DT status to Colossal MORON.

Way to go dumbass.

As a matter of tradition, the president gets an advance look at the monthly job numbers before they are released. The expectation is that POTUS will keep quiet about the figures, because dribbling out any information about them could influence the financial markets.

Donald Trump does not worry about such minor concerns. This morning, he tweeted.

Looking forward to seeing the employment numbers at 8:30 this morning.

His pardons path no less than interesting; Don't get the Martha Stewert one. Unless he is sending flags to the subordinates under him now. Loyalty to help me do illegal acts now will have no peril for you, I will just pardon you.

It just keeps getting better and better.

The perfect diplomat

Dennis Rodman. He is in Singapore. He knows the North Korean leaders through some events a few years ago, and he was on Celebrity Apprentice.

No I am not suggesting he will actually play a role, though I like Rodman.

Maybe I'm just dense, but I can't fathom what his end game is. Being a "bull in a china shop" is not a strategy for running a country. See something you don't like? Break it! See something you DO like? Break that, too! While you're at it, steal a few things for yourself and your friends. It's like a slow-motion riot on a world-wide stage.

Maybe my mistake is assuming that there actually is a strategy.

The strategy is strictly to line up duck$ in obfuscated and covert open ended rows for DT and cohorts. Unless I am mistaken, which I doubt.

IQ45's sure-fire B+ strategy

Capt Willard: They told me that you had gone totally insane, and that your methods were unsound.

Col Kurtz: Are my methods unsound?

Capt Willard: I don't see any method at all, sir.

Yo Wally

The only person who said B+ is Erik, who never posts here anymore.

I believe Trump is convinced he has a sublime strategy that is not understood because of its unapproachable power.

Today I stumbled upon a term I had heard but didn't know: Folie à deux (Wikipedia)

"French for "madness of two," or shared psychosis, is a psychiatric syndrome in which symptoms of a delusional belief and sometimes hallucinations are transmitted from one individual to another."

This may explain Trump's base.

(Excellent reference Walter)

B+ metaphorically refers to 46.1% of the voting population.

one scary observation: kim makes fatass-IQ45 look lean and fit!
