What stupid shit has Trump done today?

Now WTF?
Once you remember that a retired neurosurgeon is running the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the head of the Environmental Protection Agency doesn't believe in environmental regulations, it makes sense that pollster Kellyanne Conway has been tasked with ending the opioid overdose epidemic in the United States, despite having no experience in public health or with drug policy. On Wednesday, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that President Trump has asked Conway, his counselor, to become the opioids czar. She will "coordinate and lead the effort from the White House" to solve the problem of opioid overdoses, which killed tens of thousands of Americans in 2016, Sessions said.

Kellyanne Conway is now in charge of solving the opioid crisis in the United States
 
Tbf May isnt getting involved as theres nothing useful to achieve.
She may be a crap politicion but shes a politicion Trump isn't he's a celeb and a conman.

Hilary and obama and cheney may have been mediocre or actively evil but they knew how the machine worked Trumps randomly pushing buttons without a scooby the more tweeting and golf he doe does the better.
 
I wonder if Trump knew about the ad prior to it's release

The ad, titled "Contrast", touts Moore's positions on supporting a wall along the U.S.-Mexican border, Second Amendment rights, tax cuts and conservative judges. It also opens with a photo of Jones together with 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

The ad then switches to the video of Trump speaking to reporters as he departed the White House for a Thanksgiving vacation.

"And Doug Jones?" the ad's narrator said. "Well, we'll let President Trump tell you about Doug Jones."

The ad splices together Trump's comments on Jones.

"We don't need a liberal person in there," Trump said in ad. "Jones, I've looked at his record. It's terrible on crime. It's bad on the border, bad on the military, bad for the Second Amendment."

And of course there's still this up with the king's president's son in law, the one supposedly fixing the Middle East "problem."

Jared Kushner can't pass his security clearance investigation, officials say

Jared Kushner is a security risk embedded in the West Wing since he still hasn't passed a comprehensive background investigation required of anyone seeking a permanent security clearance—and no one will question the president's decision to put his son-in-law in a crucial government role, experts and officials told Newsweek.
His permanent security clearance was stalled because he initially omitted 100 foreign contacts before revising his forms three times. Kushner's complicated business interests are also being considered after he repeatedly revised financial disclosure forms, but experts said the sheer volume of his ongoing ties to foreign investors are enough to deny anyone access to classified information.
 
Just came across this story, which really says everything about what an abnormal (subnormal?) human being Trump is: The Time Donald Trump Turned Away in Disgust While a Man Was Bleeding to Death in Front of Him

Short version, Trump decides to tell Howard Stern about how he is afraid of blood with the following story. At Mar el Lago charity meal, old geezer falls over, cracks his head open and bleeds everywhere. Trump talks more about the horrible blood being on the lovely floor than the actual guy, and that his response is to go ‘This is gross, I have to get out of here’, and once some Marines who are in attendance carry the guy out, his first thought is that the floor must be cleaned, because it’s a lovely floor and he can’t stand blood. He even adds for good measure that he never called to find out of the injured man was OK because ‘that’s not my thing’.

I mean, presumably his fans would claim this shows what a straight-up, warts-and-all guy he is, but of course this is not about honesty. It comes over loud and clear to me that Trump tells it simply as ‘This Is A Story About How Much I Dislike Blood’. A normal human being either would either keep such an ugly incident to themselves, or at least would say when telling it: ‘I am ashamed to say I had such a fear of blood that I didn’t help the guy or even think of checking if he was OK afterwards’, to be clear that they have a really bad phobia and aren’t just a terrible person, but nonetheless they are sorry they acted that way. But Trump just saw nothing wrong with this because all he was trying to convey was that he doesn’t like blood. Fucked up.

I'd heard about this. The fact there seems to be absolutely no evidence of him showing anything like compassion to a fellow human being, not even family, you'd think would be a teensy weensy cause for worry.
 
(I'm aware I keep going on about twitter, sorry, I spend too much time on there. There are, I know, more real and consequential things that Trump can and is doing.

There's the appointment of ludicrous idealogue idiots to the courts as Yuwipi Woman pointed out upthread. There's this insane tax bill, which I read (mainly on Twitter) might just fail because it's such a mess. There's the ongoing assault on the truth by him and Fox and Breitbart and so on.)
 
By the way, he seems to tweet a lot about how great the economy/employment figures are doing but I can't see that he has implemented anything that could have any effect on these things one way or another. In fact I don't know if any leader could do anything that effects the economy within 12 months, which shows just how little he actually understands about economies. I've certainly heard it said that any positive performance is still in the realms of effects from Obama's presidency.
