Trump’s White House couldn’t book him a hotel room, and other incompetent-to-treasonous tales from the right July 12, 2017

While the Internet is going “can we impeach him NOW?” over Donald Trump’s kid releasing his own treasonous emails, here’s a grab-bag of other terribleness the right has been up to.

Donald: “On the campaign trail, Mr Trump repeatedly criticised President Barack Obama for golf outings during his presidency but as of his last trip to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, Mr Trump has spent his 35th day at one his own golf properties.” That’s over 20% of his “presidency,” for those keeping score.

“‘This is an act of insanity,’ a former Trump inner-circle associate told me, ‘but it’s how he functions.’”

Mike Pence: “He touched a piece of critical space flight hardware in the Orion clean room, despite the fact that there was a sign that clearly read, ‘DO NOT TOUCH.’”

The State Department: “His team apparently waited too long to book accommodations for the President [at the G20] and his travelling staff and were told none of the major hotels had vacancies.” And this isn’t even the first time: “Secretary of State Rex Tillerson had to stay several miles away – at a sanitarium outside of Bonn – from other leaders at the February G20 ministers’ meeting.”

The Defense Department: “National security adviser H.R. McMaster, Defense Secretary James Mattis and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson all supported Trump [reaffirming Article 5] and had worked in the weeks leading up to the trip to make sure it was included in the speech, according to five sources familiar with the episode. They thought it was, and a White House aide even told The New York Times the day before the line was definitely included.”

Eric Trump: “…while donors to the Eric Trump Foundation were told their money was going to help sick kids, more than $500,000 was re-donated to other charities, many of which were connected to Trump family members or interests, including at least four groups that subsequently paid to hold golf tournaments at Trump courses.”

Mitch McConnell: “I didn’t expect Donald Trump to win, I think most of my colleagues didn’t, so we didn’t expect to be in this situation [of having to follow through on our own promises].”

Hobby Lobby: Hobby Lobby has been smuggling thousands of illegally-gained artifacts out of Iraq. In case you’re wondering, yes, this almost certainly means Hobby Lobby directly funds terrorists. Hobby Lobby is a sponsor of terrorism.

The RNC: “Political data gathered on more than 198 million US citizens was exposed this month after a marketing firm contracted by the Republican National Committee stored internal documents on a publicly accessible Amazon server.” (Hey, remember how many Americans’ personal data was exposed because of Hillary’s emails? None of it!)

The House: “Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) praised the recent Islamic State attack in Tehran as a ‘good thing’ and suggested that maybe the United States should work with the militant organization.”
