Instead of the promised DC patrol, Donald Trump spent the evening dining on pizza with National Guard troops and police. On #playbookpod, Megan Messerly argues the move suggests the White House is satisfied with how this story is playing out for them: ow.ly/kYW250WKbRO

"This is something he's very invested in, as a real estate guy interested in improving and beautifying things." How much of a lobotomy do you have to have to qualify to work for an American journalism outfit? Does it have to be enough that you're demonstrably easier to lift off the ground, after?

Ya, we all know what a Bull-shitter he is. Too bad our military personnel have sit there and listen to his shit. I'm sure there are better and more important things they'd like to be doing. Like their jobs, seeing their families, actually protecting something or someone who really needs

Are the commanders of these troops ok with this shit turning the military on civilians? The July 4th parade was filled with troops who clearly were expressing their disdain for being used. Id like to see a lot more of that with these “occupiers.”

Everything happening now is Trump directing and starring in a reality television show entitled "The Dictator". Strong man visuals, revenge plots, exacting tribute, and loyalists expressing fealty are some of the key themes
