Trolling Twitter yesterday I saw him being referred to as IQ45. I laughed. Almost as much as I did when I found MAGATS reference for Trump supporters. At least this presidency is giving us SNL and Twitter references right alongside our dread of WWIII and "Is this Real or The Onion?" reporting.
Is this an acronym, or just a "maggots" play-on-words?
I think it's both. Make America Great Again Trump Supporters.
U.S. President Donald Trump struck a blow against the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement on Friday in defiance of other world powers, choosing not to certify that Tehran is complying with the deal in a major reversal of U.S. policy. Trump made the announcement in a speech that detailed a more confrontational approach to Iran over its nuclear and ballistic missile programs and its support for extremist groups in the Middle East. "Today I am announcing our strategy along with several major steps we're taking to confront the Iranian regime's hostile actions and to ensure that Iran never -- and I mean never -- acquires a nuclear weapon," Trump said.
Wasn't he getting mostly (unanimous ?) advice to stay with Iran agreement from his babysitters? He just likes to do wtf ever he wants and feel important as he declares it a terrible deal. It's so frustrating to have this bloody idiot making any decisions more important than dessert serving size.
Yes. The advice to certify was pretty much universal. Apparently he has a stick up his whatever about this one (anything really) because Obama gets credit for it. I’m sure if he did the Iran deal it’d be bigly huge. The best deal ever. But since he didn’t, he’s destroying it for funsies.
I’m off today so fuck it. I’m opening a nice bottle of red and drinking myself stupid.
This mother fucker with this Iran deal. He just wants to have a win for his supporters that he said he’d do it so he did. Am sure his supporters were just so concerned about this. He doesn’t care if they start to build because that’ll be one step closer to another country he can declare war on during toilet time.
I saw on CNN that the leader in Iran suggested 45 read a history book. When you get to the point where you agree with him and then with NK on dotard. 😳
It's probably pedantic but it's not just evangelicals - other conservative religious branches are all over this shit. The only reason I'm even bringing it up is because we really discount the numbers involved if we think it's just evangelicals. Baptists, Catholics, etc. are all in on this messaging. It makes me furious how much time they devote to being so unChristlike when the biggest part of their identities are tied up in religion.
Amen.
My brother and his family are Baptist. My mother-in-law is Catholic. My mother simply blindly votes against her best interests and has no excuse.
I would like to state, however, that it's #notallBaptists and #notallCatholics. There are conservative and liberal trains of thought in both religions. We have both that support our local Planned Parenthood right alongside me. We've got some fairly liberal Catholics right here on our board if I'm not mistaken. I do, however, consider the more conservative branches of either as evangelical or bordering on because boy do they proselytize and wow their beliefs are *extremely* conservative - on the swinging far right. Maybe that's because of my experience with my brother and his family (home schooling, dating beliefs, etc.) and my mother-in-law (who converted and is getting more and more conservative each hour.) I don't consider all evangelicals to be Westboro (Baptist...see, evangelicals!) or sects that speak in tongues or wrestle with snakes. That's just me though.
*raises hand* I'm Catholic, though I was raised Lutheran. So while I'm a Christian, I'm definitely liberal. And I'm pretty sure Christ will be spitting out a lot of these people like lukewarm water come Judgment Day.
I just keep waiting for the Breaking News bulletin about Mueller finally finishing his investigation, and then his subsequent press conference in which he recommends/charges Trump and his buffoons with all.of.the.things.
The longer it takes, the more I feel like it is never going to happen, or that they won't find anything.
I hate this man and this administration.
I actually figure that the longer it takes the more likely they’re finding stuff and making sure there’s enough avenues that at least something will stick.
In Friday Russia news, MSNBC is reporting that Reince Priebus had a meeting with Mueller. Speculation seems to be that he would have the deets on what went down around the Comey firing.
Also Manafort was in greater debt to Deripaska than previously reported:

I agree with this. As much as I want something to happen now, I also want them all to go down.
I have to disagree. It’s sad and depressing. I don’t know who the poster is, but it’s highly likely that he’s deplorable and the poor kid is going to be an asshole when he grows up. Resist, little fella.

The kid is cute, yes. But if you click through to dad’s twitter feed, he’s a supporter of 45.
Normally, I don't judge parents if their kids dress up as a POTUS or candidate for POTUS. However, Trump is on the record bragging about grabbing women by the pussy, so it is gross to have your child dress up as him. Poor kid. I hope when he's old enough to make his own choices, he joins the resistance.
Well, he certainly showed the stock market, didn't he? Maybe this will motivate any on-the-fence insurance companies to speak out against him and file lawsuits.
