On Friday, President Shitty von HateFace decided to clap back at Republican Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, who claimed that HateFace didn’t have the “stability” and “competence” to be president. “Strange statement by Bob Corker considering that he is constantly asking me whether or not he should run again in ’18.

Why Sage Steele Needs to Go Sit Down and Stare Longingly at the Stirring Teaspoon
At this point, I wish that sports announcer-turned-perpetual wagging finger of respectability politics Sage Steele would just sit, really sit, and stare at the stirring teaspoon.

‘Teleprompter Trump’ Calls for Unity a Day After ‘Rally Trump’ Spit Hot Hatred

I Have So Many Questions About the Greasy Black Guy With the Ponytail at All the Trump Rallies
When is the president going to stop rallying? The president rallied and won, and the way this works is, once you’ve won, you stop fucking rallying because you won! Nope, not this president.
