More hubris. More hissy fits.

Ozero actually did revert to this make believe ghetto inflections. There was also a hint of reverb in the speakers too.

All show, no go. The guy fortunately has not just become an international laughing stock, he is now a domestic one.

I still fear what will happen when he realizes he is not going to get his progrom sic though. Head for cover when he explodes back. My sense is there will be a fairness doctrine proposed, more gun control, and more executive orders to move as much as he can without legislation.

From www.usconstitution.net: (after the TOTUS and HPOTUS)

* Speaker of the House of Representatives (Pelosi)
* President Pro Tempore of the Senate (Byrd)
* Secretary of State (PIAPS)
* Secretary of the Treasury (Tax cheat Geithner)
* Secretary of Defense (Gates)
* Attorney General (Holder)
* Secretary of the Interior
* Secretary of Agriculture
* Secretary of Commerce
* Secretary of Labor
* Secretary of Health and Human Services
* Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
* Secretary of Transportation
* Secretary of Energy
* Secretary of Education
* Secretary of Veterans Affairs
* Secretary of Homeland Security

The only one in that list I might not be at vomit-level red with, is Gates...”might” not...

IMHO the numbers are likely to be HUGE. This is not because many people, like myself, like him or want him to succeed; indeed, the opposite is the case. Rather, I am fascinated to see how he responds to the massive electoral defeats he's suffered in in VA, MA, and NJ elections and what steps he's going to take to deal with those defeats.

I see. The same reason people enjoy demolition derbies!

“I suspect he’ll double down and put the pedal to the metal.”

Since he is such a lying cretin I’d expect him to both triagulate in words and double down in deeds.

[JohnBovenmyer]

Unfortunately he's chosen a cabinet that makes Sect. 4 of 25th amendment moot. He could go King George and they not only wouldn't act, they wouldn't notice. Biden would be preferable. He's merely incompetent, not malevolent and would soon be laughable even for the MSM. Zero is competent at doing bad. He's only incompetent at doing good.

[Chief Engineer]

Except from your list Pelosi is implicated in signing off on the eligibility of Obama which is still questionable, Byrd would fall asleep before he could even take the oath of Office and Hillary is questionable as she is an Obama appointee. That takes you to the tax cheat who according to an earlier posted story is not in a favorable position with Obama right now, which would bring you to Gates. Eliminates quite a few doesn’t it?

[Shane]

I agree with your assessment.

RIGHT ON!!
