Playing is the key word, they never had to wander in the desert for 40 years, we've been celebrating our victimhood since the 13th century BC.

They're raping the gay out of them, so it's perfectly logical. Just some holy liquid all up in it

Headline:

“The CIA had to come up with clever ideas to keep Trump from putting classified info in his pockets”

A couple golden quotes:

“We found he responded very well to images, pictures, videos, that sort of thing” - in reference to trying to keep his attention on the briefing.

“We try to impart those things and sometimes had to use a very catchy headline approach, which is not really orthodox for us, to get him to focus without him wanting to pull products, such as images, which we would try to include on a tablet, so it was not something he could take - or a large poster sized document, that, again, are hard to put in your pocket.”

“But often enough, it was really keeping him on target. There was one particular briefing we had on a sensitive terrorism issue where the president would ride off on a tangent and talk about ordering food or a milkshake…”

That is hilarious. Trump embodies every negative American trait. He’s the perfect cliche for the American alt-right.

Really? I set my VPN to Canada to make sure I could watch it there... clearly didn't click on the video though.

How's this?

If they have the rest of Klepper on there, they're worth watching. It's so mind-numbingly terrible what comes out of these people's mouths

Hubris? Idiocy? Apparently he answered that to a degree at a recent event..:

“I probably took 50 or 60 selfies with people who were excited to just see somebody involved in the narrative surrounding this Trump World,” he says. “There are even politicians at CPAC who would come up and ask if they could set up a time [to talk]. You become like a villain in the Trump universe. It’s always that the rallies are like a sporting event. There’s ideology, there’s pomp and circumstance, it is fun, it’s entertainment and that also speaks to why people talk to me.”

So is he saying that this whole alt-right movement thingy is just something for bored, simpleminded, middle class folk to indulge in? Like a tailgate party or 4th of July parade? Jesus. Don’t they understand the consequences of their ill-informed actions?

Have you watched The Boys on Prime? Season 3 is a mirror for what’s going right now.

I wonder if these people ever see the footage afterwards? Probably not as they don’t trust any media except Fox, Breitbart, Thuth Social.
