"That's not how trade negotiations work, you dumb motherfucker."
That's pretty much Trump's presidency in a nutshell: everyone else saying "That's not how [insert thing here] works, you dumb motherfucker."
"How on Earth did Navarro get a job at the fucking White House?" John Oliver asks.
Because Trump has a penchant for picking people who are 100% ass-backwards wrong for the positions he picks them for, because either (1) Trump is a dumbshit moron who is badly playacting at being the President because has no goddamn clue what he is actually doing, (2) he is actively, maliciously seeking to intentionally harm the United States on Putin's orders, or (3) some combination of (1) and (2).

(EDIT) With the creation of this new last week tonight tag, I also went and posted some videos that I had apparently only posted to Facebook previously (with the DW posts backdated to when those videos were published on Youtube, rather than when I posted them on FB). I don't know if all of that shit spammed the feeds of whoever is still paying any attention to me on here (*waves at
