Crash

Trump tweeted maniacally all day. He is jealous of all the attention John McCain is getting with the televised funerals. WHAT ABOUT ME? He says the media coverage was “over the top.” WHAT ABOUT ME? After tweeting all day he did a MAGA rally in Indiana at night. There were too many red hats and shirts for it not to have been staged. Too many people, “looking the part.” A protester snuck in. One of Trump’s staffers threw himself at a photographer before he could take a picture of the protester. He blocked the shot much like the secret service would block the shot. Trump has people on staff that will put their lives on the line to protect him from bad publicity. He ranted the usual stuff at the rally, but this is new: “They want to raid Medicare to pay for socialism.”
WHAT ABOUT ME? WHAT ABOUT ME?
As part of his day long tweet fest, he pinned a tweet of the infamous escalator ride at Trump Tower when he announced his presidential run. He hired extras to be in the shot, just like he did for his MAGA rally last night. LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!
“As attention turns towards McCain’s memorial, Trump is furiously firing off conspiracy theories and attacks on the media (Hillary’s emails, CNN, Comey, etc.) Only a true egomaniac would throw a tantrum to distract from a funeral.” — Robert Reich
Republican hypocrite fun fact: Republicans have shown more loyalty to Trump than they have John McCain. Democrats have shown John McCain more respect in death than McCain’s own party.
WHAT ABOUT ME? WHAT ABOUT ME?
John McCain knew it was never about him.
Trump hated John McCain because he gave the Steele Dossier to the FBI.
Republicans are dead set on giving Brett Kavanaugh a hearing next week even though nobody can properly review his record because it’s not available. Voting for this guy to be a Supreme Court justice would be like hiring some guy to be a wrestling coach, sight unseen, without doing a background check, and then finding out he’s a pedophile.
The Dems have asked Nixon White House Counsel, John Dean, to testify against Brett Kavanaugh next week. He’ll say a few words about Kavanaugh‘s views on special counsel investigations and presidents being above the law. He knows a thing or two about that. He went to jail for Nixon.
Trump is going after Bruce Ohr because he works for the FBI. Like McCain, he gave information about the Steele Dossier to FBI officials BECAUSE THAT’S HIS JOB. Trump wants to destroy him and anyone else who is an expert on Russia.
The Trump administration is denying passports to Hispanic Americans living on the border. The time has come where the government is stripping people of their citizenship and taking away passports.
Trump is now claiming that NBC News “fudged” part of the Lester Holt interview in May 2017 where he admitted that he fired Comey because of Russia.
Mueller gets to look over 30 years of dirt on Trump in AMI’s vault of bribes. There are abortions in there. How will the evangelicals rationalize this? Jesus forgives him, of course. Nobody else, though, except maybe themselves, their own daughters, sisters and wives, but nobody else.
Mike Pence’s mother-wife, Karen, was married before. She wasn’t a virgin. He had to forgive her that before he could have sex with her.
The mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico, Carmen Yulín Cruz, has a message for Trump: “You left us here to die — 2,975 people……that will follow you for the rest of your life.”
1,038 families in Puerto Rico have been staying in hotels paid for by FEMA. They have just been told that they have two weeks to move out. Many of them will be homeless.
Trump announced that he’s cancelling a scheduled federal pay raise for 2 million workers. It was supposed to go into effect in January. The government can’t afford it, he says. He announced this right before Labor Day.
It’s the Friday before Labor Day, the Labor Day before the most important election in US history. Keep your eye on the road. There’s a pile up coming.

ACTION ITEM FOR TODAY: Call your senators to stay no Kavanaugh hearing next week!
