Trump makes bizarre claims at press event as Cabinet members take turns praising him - Polidicks

[url=http://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/12/trump-makes-bizarre-claims-at-press-event-as-cabinet-members-take-turns-praising-him.html]Article[/url] [quote] After a weekend dominated by discussion of whether he had committed obstruction of justice, the president called in reporters for what he billed as his first full Cabinet meeting. He began with an opening statement laced with the sort of wild, self-congratulatory boasts that are his trademark. "Never has there been a president, with few exceptions … who has passed more legislation, done more things," Trump declared, even though Congress, which is controlled by his party, hasn't passed any major legislation. Typically, a president's initial comments mark the end of on-camera coverage of White House Cabinet meetings, with administration aides then escorting members of the small press "pool" out of the room. But Trump invited reporters to remain as he called on his senior-most advisers to "go around, name your position" and say a few words about the administration's work. "Start with Mike," Trump said, referring to his vice president. Mike Pence, whom Trump kept in the dark for two weeks after learning that then-National Security Adviser Michael Flynn had given the vice president false information earlier this year, responded by saying that serving as Trump's number two is "the greatest privilege of my life." "An honor to be here," said Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who recently offered his resignation amid strains over the Russia investigation. "My hat is off to you," said Energy Secretary Rick Perry, referring to the president's explanation of his decision to abandon a global climate change agreement. "We thank you for the opportunity and blessing you've given us to serve your agenda and the American people," said Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, the subject of recent reports that Trump may fire him.[/quote] Video is in article

Creepy. It's like all his croneys are being puppeted around and made to say whatever Trump wants them to [i]or else[/i] in Priebus' case.

I didn't know he was such a fan of King Lear to live it out in real life.

Trump's cabinet reminds me of all those conspicuously happy-looking North Korean generals surrounding Kim Jong Un in all his official "inspecting the troops" photos.

[quote]We thank you for the opportunity and blessing you've given us to serve your agenda and the American people[/quote] This makes me feel weird

We thank you for the opportunity and blessing you've given to the hive and long live the beauty of the flesh. May we thrive and succeed.

[QUOTE=Judas;52350118]has donald trump done any things?[/QUOTE] He's pulled us out of the Paris Climate Accords. But not really, because we can only officially pull out in 2019, and then after that it'll take 1 to 2 years of actually going through the process of pulling out. So I guess no, not a thing.

Trump's presidency is so bad he needs to make his own echo chamber.

what the fuck has happened to the us

[QUOTE=Judas;52350118]has donald trump done any things?[/QUOTE] No, but he has undone many things and he thinks that's the same.

[QUOTE=Saturn V;52350787]what the fuck has happened to the us[/QUOTE] It has become the embodiment of a clown fiesta.

[QUOTE=Judas;52350118]has donald trump done any things?[/QUOTE] No major legislation has passed during his term. The only things the has achieved is through executive power like rolling back things Obama did as president. [editline]12th June 2017[/editline] There are actually few presidents in the modern era that have done [B]less [/B]during the first few months of their presidency than Trump has.

what a giant fucking echo chamber that is, its fucking ridiculous

[QUOTE=Spacewolf;52350063]This is hilarious and creepy at the same time.[/QUOTE] It's like a prayer what the hell. What was that about idolatry again?

An average day in the Trump Administration is not news.

This is pathetic, yeesh.

Speaking of Rick Perry, haven't heard anything about him lately. Is this a case of no-news-is-good-news? How is the [I]Ambassador to the Oil and Gas Industry[/I] doing these days.

The fact that he's stayed out of the headlines is arguably a good thing...but that assumes that he isn't doing dumb things in secret, which is not reliably true when talking about Rick Perry.
