By Way of Introduction

You can lead a horse to the polls, but you can't make him vote. They would have to modify the booth to accommodate his horse shape.

The New New New New... Normal?

Every day I check in on the new lows our politicians have sunk to in pursuit of Guiness Record level sycophancy. Almost as often the Tweeter in Chief surprises me with some new lunacy. This morning it was this:
Why is this guy telling our soon-to-be-targets that we're coming??? Is he afraid Putin didn't get his voicemail informing him of our specific plans? If his actions cause our American service people to come to harm then he should be court martialed just like any other member of the military who betrays his fellow soldiers' plans of action. Please realize this is tongue-in-cheek, as the Commander in Chief is a symbolically civilian position, and therefore ineligible for such legal recourse. Still, to aid and abet an enemy is a high crime and should be treated as such regardless of title. Heck, even Donald Trump agrees that this was a horrible idea:
Nearly a year apart and he hadn't changed his mind about what a bad idea it was:

On top of this is all his bellyaching over his Fixer getting fixed, threats to fire everyone at the DOJ, threats from his dipshit cronies like Devin "Soon to be a prison bitch" Nunes to impeach the Director of the FBI Christopher Wray, as well as Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein, ALL BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING TO HIDE. NO COLLUSION.

To paraphrase Shakespeare, via Gertrude: "The orange man doth protest too much, methinks."

April 12 Update - After being eviscerated for telegraphing our plan of attack, including reports that Syria was moving troops to Russian outposts to avoid the coming wave of "nice and new and "smart!'" missiles, the Head Idiot at the White House attempted to backtrack through his medium of choice:

Just to remind you all, this treasonous lummox is sitting in the seat of power for the Western Hemisphere. Happy Thursday!
