Trump celebrates tax bill with very creepy, cult-like cabinet meeting
Source: Think Progress
On Wednesday, the House voted again to approve the Republican tax bill, sending the legislation to the presidents desk.
Then things got weird.
President Trump celebrated passage of the Republican tax cut bill with a cabinet meeting that felt more like a gathering of the cult of Trump.
After Trump bragged about doing a job like no administration has done, the president asked HUD Secretary Ben Carson to say a prayer. But before Carson started, Trump addressed reporters, telling them to stick around because they need the prayer more than I do, I think.
Maybe a good solid prayer and theyll be honest, Ben, is that possible? Trump asked.

(19,204 posts)for his cult deranged followers, who think it's hilarious that this is all upsetting "liberals" (which to them, means anyone who doesn't support Trump) and they're perfectly content to have the country fall down around their ankles, as long as their side WON!
We KNOW these people are stupid, but the length, width, and depth of their stupidity has reached areas where scientists never new areas existed. How irrational can people possibly be? They're celebrating their own demise!

Hopefully this will destroy the GOP forever.

(19,204 posts)There's a video of this on the home page as well. I thought it best if I just read about it. If I watched all of those evil pricks sitting around the same table, taking glee in this monstrosity of a tax bill, my computer would undoubtedly have suffered for it. Reading this is bad enough.

And the cabinet praising dear supreme leader is too much to watch.

Pence is schmoozing and flattering like fulsomely on and on, possibly trying to keep him from talking until he calmed down. Middle East? Otoh, maybe it's Pence he's really angry at, scowling with arms tightly crossed.

(19,204 posts)A man that has probably broken every commandment several times over, is now passing judgement on all others?
And these asinine "cabinet" meetings, where everyone takes their turn praising Trump, and telling him what an awesome job he's doing.....it most definitely IS a cult, and everyone must swear allegiance to der Comb-over Fuhrer. And NONE of these spineless, brain-dead douche-bags in the "cabinet" think that's even remotely strange?
They've all been lobotomized. There's absolutely no other explanation.
Irish_Dem
(47,324 posts)I suspect that is what they are doing and secretly know he is a moron.
Except for Ben Carson. There is something very wrong with that man.

I'm beginning to think the bastard IS "the Anti-Christ"...or at least, AN "Anti-Christ"
Multiple "Anti-Christs" are more likely than a single one, imo.
(Hitler could have been an Anti-Christ too)

46 Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. 47 They devour widows houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.

(9,426 posts)much weight. He thinks crossing his arms will disguise it. His arms can not cover the large expanse any more. Watch how he keeps trying to pull his overcoat across his large orange belly when he exits Air FARCE One. Looks like, despite the happy happy talk in the WH, he has seen some of the HONEST reports of how people really feel about his orangeness. Either that, or he is pondering how he will accomplish Putin's next decision to destroy this country.

Now that homeowners will see their property values plunge,
and pay even MORE taxes, it is time for the Trump family
to pay for their own security.
WHY SHOULD WE PAY FOR POLICE PROTECTION AT TRUMP PROPERTIES????

(11,885 posts)His fascist tendencies that is why he demands their repeated pledges of loyalty and praise. He's so insecure he needs those to make him feel better about himself after what he knows he's done to people is so bad. Those that participate in his rituals have shown to the world how low, and how pitiful his demanding others act so subservient to him as a sign of greatness, but is really just another tactic of a weak and disrespected individual who has bullied others for a long, long time. His hurting millions and millions of people, and at Christmas time seems to make him happier. Maybe why his idols are hitler and putin.
