Ahah ok! You don't get it on InternetI think the word you're looking for is Sarcastic
I know he's said and done a lot of pretty crap stuff over his presidency so far but for some reason this NFL thing has particularly bothered me to be honest.
It may not be explicit but the underlying tone is so racial. It seems the NFL is moving towards mandating standing during the anthem and the meaning (for me anyway) is clear. A perfectly reasonable, valid and peaceful protest has been quashed by rich white men, who have changed the meaning of the protests. And the black man has been put back in his place.
Excellent.

If that tweet is legitimate, the Republican party are knowingly risking nuclear war because they want a tax bill to pass so they have something to present to their voters for the next election.
People who are partly responsible for putting Trump in office, believe so much that they deserve to have a say in who replaces him, that they're willing to risk nuclear war for it.
That is arrogance, negligence and stupidity bordering on evil.

It's obvious there are voices withing the administration screaming about his mental state.
It won't surprise me if he has early onset of dementia.
He forgot he went golfing with Lindsey Graham on a Monday, when asked about it on Tuesday.

They're the least patriotic people on Earth, yet the first to wave the flag in people's faces.
Their tax bill won't be worth shit if there's nuclear war.
Bob Reich is a pretty good source and I’m likely to believe all of this is true since there is more and more chatter about the 25th amendment being invoked elsewhere.
Gabe Sherman also had a piece is Vanity Fair where Bannon warned Trump about all of this.....

Chuck Schumer weighing in on the comments of Trumps latest outrageous tweet.
I think he went to clown college.
His latest tweets on Puerto Rico are fecking despicable. Such a massive cnut that man.
That's no longer true. However, owners get numerous tax breaks and subsidies to build their giant ego playgrounds and often hold cities/townships hostage in negotiating.

What's true - The NFL League Office used to be a tax-exempt entity.
What's false - The NFL's tax exemption applied only to the league office and not to the teams themselves, and the office has since given up its non-profit status.
I kinda get the feeling some bombshell news is coming soon, because he's working so so hard to prep his base for it at the moment.
He probably just watched a bit of Morning Joe where they are lambasting him as an authoritarian for his comments about pulling NBC's license.
Here's the law on retreat (well technically for hoisting and lowering of the flag during the duty day and to pay respects).
Trump utterly disrespected the flag and service members past, present, and deceased by talking and making jokes.
4 USC 9
During the ceremony of hoisting or lowering the flag or when the flag is passing in a parade or in review, all person present in uniform should render the military salute. Members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute. All other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart, or if applicable, remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Citizens of other countries present should stand at attention. All such conduct toward the flag in a moving column should be rendered at the moment the flag passes.

It was only a matter of time. Like his tweets from the past that contradict himself now, he was bound to blatantly denigrate it himself.
Not setting up the russian sanctions.
McCain mentioned it last night I believe, asking what is going on. Remember, it was an almost unanimous decision made by both parties across both houses, the deadline was oct 1st. Trump has done nothing and refuses to discuss it.

Yeah, and he want's to pull out FEMA because it's "too expensive". Hes such a fecking scumbag it's almost unbelievable
Its just Trump lashing out, because he's been reading all the stories in past few days about the WH being in chaos.
Wut?Every time he rages against fake news, he later comes out himself and confirms the story in question except that it was even worse than first reported.
Has been my thoughts from the beginning. Watching the US taking steps in the wrong direction (imo, not so for others clearly) and the population either going along with it wilfully, standing still watching it happen but pretending everything is ok, or being dragged along but not actually being able to do much about it.
It's fcuked up to say the least...
The NFL issue is just the latest and most obvious. Look at who he picks out for the most vitriol - minorities always get it the worst. I mean, his very existence as a political identity is built on question the legitimacy and qualifications of America's first non-white male president. He didn't rise up on the back of his tax reform ideas. He launched his campaign attacking Mexicans and Muslims, constantly dog whistling at white supremacists along the way. And that was completely acceptable to many - as long as he himself wasn't donning a white hood or recorded saying "n*gger" then he can't possibly be a "real" racist. Because overt racism is bad, we all know that, but *wink wink* racism, what's the big deal?
I was constantly asking this question around the election and could never get a good response - what was it about Trump himself vs, say, George W. Bush, that the white supremacists found so endearing? They fully support him, they celebrated his victory as their own victory - why?
He probably tried to get Trump Tower on the list of World Heritage sites.
They pulled out then went back in then pulled out, then went back in then pulled out......

Puerto Rico is of no political value to him. He really doesn't care who lives, dies or whether they get back power or water for the next 10 years. In addition, what they also want is for the island to really get themselves in a mess while him and his rich buddies buy up property and other real estate for dirt cheap prices because of it's debt and crumbling infrastructure. It's all a well thought out plan for HIM with regards to Puerto Rico.
That meaning isn't just clear to you, it's as crystal clear as can be.
Remember, KKK protesting Charlottesville in was just fine as "everyone has a right to protest". Taking the piss of of McCain and claiming Trump likes his War Heroes to not get caught was fine, but kneeling during an national anthem, now that is disrespect to the flag and our troops.
Racist wanker he is, but that's been clear from day one. If the NFL try to make this mandatory, all of the players should ignore it.
Back to his segment with Hannity and not showing respect to Retreat. This cnut was just before that ripping Kaepernick and talking about not disrespecting the flag and country. What a shitstain fecktard he is.
Based on that Jerusalem resolution?
Actually you can keep FEMA there forever it's what they are for. PR is a US territory and thus citizens, so err yes you keep them there until it's all fixed and back to normal.
I'd guess so. Israel itself is withdrawing as well:
Trump: "I want to make a point. Get us out of the UN".
Advisor 1: "Sir we're not sure that's such a g.."
Trump: "Shut up and obey me. Get us out NOW!"
Advisor 2: [whispers] "just pull us out of Unesco quickly - he won't notice. We can pass it off as unity with the Israelis."
Advisor 1: "Ok sir, we have pulled out of the UN cultural organisation."
Trump: "Excellent. I am super important. Nobody is more important than me."
[Later]
Advisor 3: "How come we pulled out of Unesco lads?"
Advisor 1: "We are showing unity with Israel"
Advisor 3: "Er... lads, Israel are still in Unesco"
Advisor 2: "Shit."
Isn't that what he does now.
Do we have such a law in the UK anyone? I mean, it seems like something we probably did have in days gone back but we just ignore it nowadays.
Such a goddamn cult about a bit of cloth.
