are probably throwing up at least once a day these days.
They may be getting a clue.

(8,090 posts)I admit Trump is turning up the screech factor, but I don't see it as being emboldened. Ivanka tweeting that comparison of Trump to Thomas Jefferson sounds as if shes rushing to kiss daddys boo boo. It has the stink of panic. And Don Jrs hiding behind his girlfriends screaming defense of him AGAINST THEIR FANS and then running away and leaving her to save herself like he always does shows fear.
None of them are emboldened. Its crazed panic knee jerk desperation.

Fat Nixon is hosting the spectacularly corrupt Erdoğan in the White House and lying about #unwantedivanka creating jobs.
Ivanka compares her father to one of our Founding Fathers. Most Americans won't sweat the details of Jefferson's words, but she was schooled by many Twitter users on Sally Hemings and their children, nepotism, the Constitution, etc. She won't care. They never admit they're wrong.
Greasy Son #2 had the nerve to attend NYC's Veteran's Day parade in spite of the fact that the Trump Organization was recently busted for diverting money from vets. Greasy Son #1 tweeted a video of a WWII veteran at the parade threatening to kill Trump protesters.
Jared and his crew are supposedly live-streaming construction of the wall.
They're marketing the hell out of this administration and his supporters are lapping it up.

(53,410 posts)Going through the motions which is as second nature as breathing is just doing what they know how to do. Its all an act all the time. They have no clue how to act differently. Theyve never been genuine people. Thats why they keep sticking their foot in their mouth. They dont bend with the winds of change, because they dont have plan B, much less plan C.
Theyve probably never even had a sincere conversation with each other. Donald Trump tells them what to think, and they do.

(8,090 posts)Fantasy, I know. Americans were stupid enough to elect two Bushes (well, technically one) but wisened up when it came to Jeb. My fear is that we'll suffer another Trump administration but with either Junior or Ivanka at the helm. God help us.

(53,410 posts)May they decide it simply isnt lucrative enough for them to bother staying here. Let them pursue international Trump Towers in other countries, where only the corrupt will go.

Ah what the hell, fling it into the Sun, it's the only way to be sure.
Take no chances!

(53,410 posts)But they do have a very strong sense of self preservation. At any expense, especially if someone else gets to pay the price. If they see no way out they will feel fear. The more they twist to get out of it the more they will feel fear. Thats what I think theyre beginning to feel.
Their usual ploys arent working. And as they try newer ploys they arent working either.
