Oh Sweet Jesus, you can’t make this sh*t up. This is what happens when you hand a 16 year old a quart of Jack Daniels and the keys to the SUV. I’m sure that in his pure imbecility that Beggar Vance thinks he’s showing leadership ability in stepping up to pull Trump out of his personal sh*t pile, but like everything else Vance, all he did was to step on Traitor Tot’s head.
Right now El Pendejo ex Presidente is getting a bucket of sh*t dumped on his head, and for once it isn’t because of some Q-Anon horsesh*t he and Vance spread around like some mentally defective vaudeville comedy team. This one is His Lowness’s personal property.
It started yesterday with the bombshell report of an assertion in Bob Woodward’s upcoming book that while Traitor Tot was in office, he secretly sent Putin Abbott lab covid testing equipment for his personal use even as people in the US were dying due to a lack of testing equipment. Even worse was the claim from an unnamed Trump aide that he had had as many as 7 personal phone calls with Putin since he left office. The news dominated the media cycle for the entire 24 hours, with devastating effect on Il Douche.
Now even a misfit toy like Bugger would know when to go out, stick to the teleprompter, shut up, and get his dumb ass off the stage. But Howdy Doody is made of sterner stuff. While he left the Covid test kit landmine alone, Beggar jumped on the secret phone calls with both feet;
People have asked me if I ever talked with President Trump about his contacts with Vladimir Putin. And the answer is no, we’ve never had that conversation. But I have to ask you this, Is it wrong for an individual to talk to a world leader? NO! And is it wrong for a person to engage in diplomacy? NO!
Oh Vance, you stupid, stupid sh*t! As a matter of fact, it is wrong! As wrong as hell! In this country we only have one President at a time. And to prove it, we have this pesky little thing called the Logan act, prohibiting private citizens to engage in unauthorized diplomacy with a foreign power. It’s punishable by up to 20 years in Club Fed. And no matter how dirt stupid and delusional you are, former President Trump is, at the moment a, wait for it, a private citizen.
Here’s why this Herculean act of imbecility is so damaging for Trump. With his blurting out impetuously, Is it wrong for a person to engage in diplomacy?, Vance buried not only Traitor tot, but himself two ways.
First, that statement overtly indicates that Beggar knew that Traitor Tot had been engaging in diplomacy with Putin. Which begs the second question. If Beggar had never talked to The Peach Penguin about his conversations with Putin, how did he know that he engaged in diplomacy? Why couldn’t the two of them been engaged in kinky old white guy gay phone sex? After all, Traitor Tot would jump a bowl of soup if it was warm. See the infamous video of him kissing a Rudy Giuliani in drag.
This is going to come back to bite the Trump campaign in the ass. While Harris and the campaign can take the high road, aligned Super PAC’s can gleefully show that question, and then educate last minute voters on what the Logan Act is. And then gleefully point out The Cheeto Prophet slipping Vlad the Imp some Covid kits when US hospitals and clinics were begging for them.
Mama Gump said it best, Stupid is as stupid does. But this goes far beyond traditional stupid, even Hillbilly stupid. While FEMA is fighting multiple natural disasters with a low checkbook, maybe MAGA Mike Johnson can call the House back into session to award Vance a special Congressional Medal of Stupid. It would be well deserved, but then Heir Twitler would want one. Whatever.
I thank you for the privilege of your time.
So Fancy Vancy has put his foot in a really high steaming dogpile, hasn’t he. He’s probably now using Snibbo to try to sanitise his shoes, whilst ridding himself of the fleas he’s dog whistled. Fancy Vancy will also not be able to get rid of the stink he’s created. Stupidly crafting and stepping into ones own dogpile does come with consequences and blowback.
I still, to this very day, cannot fathom who would vote for these two (or trump/pence back in the day) or why they would do so. I generally just think it is a Mama Gump thing but after trump’s failed presidency (and it crashed and burned), President Biden’s receiving a poop sandwich and making a stronger country than was left to him, and now all of this reish coming out about trump, after all this and more I do not think anyone who has brain enough to continue breathing 24/7 can be this ignorant. And yet, the fact remains people are voting for the worst possible candidates for themselves and their country. Are these people masochists?
Though I agree with all that he has to say- Joseph “Murfster35” Murphy has a way of saying it that is so repulsive that I’ve stopped reading his b**lsh*t, sophomoric, inane, trivializing crap.
I know for certain that he was raised long after the era of journalists like Bob Woodward, Walter Cronkite and others who did more than just add expletives to news feeds. Hey, Murfster,
making up cutesy names like Traiter Tot ain’t gonna make no differnce to nobody- it only makes you sound like a partisan jackass. Again, I agree with all you got to say–why do you have to make it so repulsive to read?
So, you “agree” with what Murf has written, you just don’t like *HOW* he writes?
As for “the era of journalists” crap, Murf is NOT a “journalist.” I’ve never seen him pretend to be a “journalist”–merely an amateur who speaks/writes his mind on matters of politics.
As for the “partisan jackass” comment, what Murf has written is MILD compared to the REAL partisan jackasses who infest the right-wing noise machine like Fox “News” and Redstate and other sources too vile to mention. Oh, have you visited Twitter–I mean “X”–lately?
I also find it rather odd that you’ve “stopped reading” and yet you’re HERE posting a comment. Comes off a little bit “goodbye cruel world” of you. (Also a little odd that you can “agree” with someone who you’ve “stopped reading.” How can you possibly know what Murf has to say and “agree” with it if you’re not actually reading it?)
Will the DOJ or ANYone go after orange menace for logan act violation? No, of course not. Not because it’s too close to an election, but because it’s the orange menace and they are all afraid of him. I’m shocked, absolutely shocked I tell you, to hear the media talking about him in ways that aren’t kissing his arse or praising him. Too little too late but at least there is a small effort.
Well, blame Woodward for a lack of going after Trump for Logan Act violations. Why did Woodward wait until it was within the DOJ’s guideline (and it is actually just a “guideline”–not a rule set in stone) to not open investigations within a certain point of an election?
At any rate, in the entire history of the United States since the passage of the Logan Act (way back in 1799!), only TWO people have ever been prosecuted for violating the Act–the first in 1804 and the other in 1852–and neither was convicted (that’s from the Wiki article, based on a story from Reuters).
