He is on a roll. A real problem solver, but maybe with too much food colouring in the diet.

Flying water tankers. Get in.


Edit: the president said that the cathedral was “burning at a level that you rarely see a fire burn.”

What an absolute cock.

He really is a walking exemplar of the Dunning-Kruger effect. What I like best about that is that he really thinks he's helping - like there are people in France standing next to some "flying water tankers" doing nothing until they see his tweet and shout, "Bien sûr! Le water tanker. C'est façile!" And then they jump in the plane seats and Donald is hailed as the hero of France for his idea making.

I'm sure the professionals on the ground were very grateful for his input.
But they were probably too busy trying to rescue all that priceless, flammable artwork from the interior.

It looks/sounds like the decision to let it burn itself out was made pretty early on, presumably for good reasons.

Away from Trump, humanity has lost a part of its soul tonight.

Absolutely WT.

Seriously, does that fat fuck do anything other than watch telly?

This is the fault of the homosexuals! The creator was simply striking his vengeance upon these fornicating symbols of ungodliness by destroying something of his own! Just like the Tibetan monks setting fire to themselves, he was making a sign! THIS CANNOT GO ON! Cleanse the world of this unbearable sin!

...

Now let's wait a day or two for Billy to come out in support of that atrocity above...

And seriously now, what a tragedy. I'm glad I got to attend mass there, but my kids may now never get the chance

Paris fire chief has said they couldn't use water bombing as the it would tear down the actual structure.

AKA, Paris isn't a forest. Different areas have different considerations.

Seems like a good reason to me

Trump must have been thinking about flying water tanks ever since that chap tried to set himself on fire outside the Whitehouse

Trump- the ultimate WUM. Have to admit, he's very good at it.

It's not a wum. His "gut" reaction to a christian place of worship burning to the ground in a country run by white people was to offer advice that he thought sincere.

The wumming is the daily torrent of conspiracy regarding the actions of muslim members of congress manifest in an all out attack on social media platforms not amenable to fact checking and review. I'm not even going to look on the fucking internet and see how the audience for this sort of shit has undoubtedly shaped the Cathedral narrative into some sort of anti-diversity affirmation. I'm just sick of these cunts.

Sweet mother of god someone please shut this little bitch up. How much longer can this cretinous legume keep up a charade of possessing even a skerrick of competence? How hard do you need to fall on your arse before your head registers the impact?

I like this new idea the executive should cooperate with Congressional oversight by refusing to talk to them, what could go wrong?

It's essentially being reported the Whitehouse has in essence stymied progress to inhibit foreign agents adversely influencing future elections as it's a sore subject to bring up with Trump. Mulvaney, the acting chief of staff, is even reported as having advised people not to bring it up with the President. Mulvaney says he never said anything like that in any meeting leaving the rather obvious thought he made such comments outside a formal meeting

This is rather appalling from Trump who should be saying democracy and future elections are far more important than him, a tricky position for a demented narcissist in fairness

Dude is tweeting dozens of messages per day, invariably after watching something on TeeVee. In the last few days alone he has reported 138 million dead in a terror attack, demanded that Twitter be fair to him after seeing a few thousand bots erased from his follower tally, claimed the Mexican military drew weapons on US border patrol to aid drug smugglers, accused UK Intelligence of officially spying on his campaign for Obama. These are just the highlights, wedged in between quoting Fox News.

Well done 'Murrica. You are a fucking joke.

That's a lot of dead people, our fake news is obviously failing to report a simply gargantuan story

He's sort of right GCHQ spied on him, but it's not exactly a fair point he's making all the same

An awesome speech from the man on preventing opioid addiction. His one idea was to run an advert telling kids not to try drugs, perhaps he doesn't know that already happens, a lot. Then he moved onto praising China for the death penalty, a dress worn by Melania (at least it wasn’t one of Ivanka's) , how he's unfairly harassed, and around a minute in praise of dogs, there was more but it's genuinely hard to keep track, and this is when in theory he's staying on a specific single issue

Stopped clock? Or time to reassess my pet priorities?

Much informed by his thinking that modern life and technology is too complex and thus it's better to use old fashioned tools, such as sniffer dogs on the border. In fairness dogs can do a remarkable job, but Trump might now hold the world record for the must uses of the word dog in a single ramble.

A truly weird man says now that measles is going around people should get shots to protect from it, luckily he's not such an incompetent lying wanker that he was part of the crowd berating vaccinations before there was a problem with measles

In other news a truly weird man says there it was a perfect answer that claimed there were good people on both sides in the stand off between white supremacists and people protesting those supremacists

And in other news the truly weird man turns out to be the greatest hostage negotiator, and not just the greatest but better than Obama, who knew

I'm actually really pleased that Trump's come out with a pro-vaccination statement (although it's certainly just because the last person to speak to him was pro-vaccination). Say what you will about him (and I do), but he has a lot of pull with stupid people who are mistrustful of scientists and "the establishment" which is a major part of the non-vaccinated group. Him saying it's important to get your shots will drive immunisation rates more than any amount of facts or logic.

Puja

Say immunisation rates go up how does one strip out that positive derives from Trump rather than dead/dying children?
