Political Theatre
Acting Interior Secretary and oil lobbyist, David Bernhardt, wants the job permanently. During his job interview CSPAN picked up someone playing a swamp monster sitting behind him.
After the Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee and the occupant in the White House called on the Chair, Adam Schiff to resign, Adam got pissed. Normally calm, cool and collected (and always the smartest guy in the room) Adam smacked those fuckers down like facts at a Huckabee press conference. “I say this to the President, and his defenders in Congress: You may think it’s okay how Trump and his associates interacted with Russians during the campaign. I don’t. I think it’s immoral. I think it’s unethical. I think it’s unpatriotic. And yes, I think it’s corrupt.” Then he went through a long list of other immoral, unethical, unpatriotic and corrupt offenses, basically laying out the whole case for impeachment and ending with “You may think it’s OK…….”
Millions of people have seen and shared the video of the Schiff smack down. Riveting, compelling and believable performance.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi was pissed too. Always poised and in control, she said she was proud of the work Chairman Adam Schiff has done, “In stark contrast to the irresponsible almost criminal behavior of the previous chair of the committee.” Ouch!
Devin Nunes either looked down or straight ahead during Adam’s monologue.
Republican hypocrite fun fact: The Republicans called for the resignation of Adam Schiff (a prosecutor) for investigating Trump but won’t call for Trump’s impeachment.
Trump put on quite a show at his MAGA rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He made fun of Adam Schiff’s neck — “Little pencil neck Adam Schiff. He’s got the smallest, thinnest neck I’ve ever seen. He is not a long ball hitter.” He rambled on about his election win, bashed the media, led the crowd in a “Lock her up” chant, and said the Democrats are sick.
The Democrats are sick of his shit. He’s sick and he should have been 25th amendmented 2 years ago. Somebody get the hook and close the curtain on this lunatic!
Trump imitated Jerry Nadler for demanding “every record” of the Trump Organization — “And what do you have to justify? Nothing, it doesn’t matter, we’ll find something.” Not the behavior of an innocent, confident leader. He needed the MAGA rally because he NEEDED a friendly audience.
Paid actors or cult members?
Trump is paranoid. He’s scared that they’re gonna get him now and he’s scared they were gonna get him then. “They spied on me. They spied on my campaign. Who would think that is possible? The single greatest political hoax in the history of our country. And guess what? We won.”
Trump said that Senator Mazie Hirono will be very surprised when she finds out that the Green New Deal won’t let her travel back to Hawaii anymore because planes will be outlawed.
“If Hillary got in… you’d be doing wind. Windmills. Whhhhhheeeeeeeee. And if it doesn’t blow, you can forget about television for that night. ‘Darling, I want to watch television.’ ‘I’m sorry! The wind isn’t blowing.’ I know a lot about wind.”
None of the paid actors or cult members behind him looked at each other to say “What the fuck?”
Bad acting or bad judgement?
“To be or not to be, that is the question” — the Republicans
“To thine own self be true” — the Democrats
Take a bow, Adam Schiff, and give them hell.
