Martha McCallum: “Bernie, r u willing to pay the 52% tax you’re proposing on the money you made off your book.”
Bernie: “Well Martha, I haven’t showered in a week, but I did have a really good burrito 4 lunch.”
Martha: “You didn’t answer the question.”
Bernie: “Trump is bad.”
I have no brain. Be that as it may, I just copied this because someone, somewhere, posted the link. I thought it would be nice to have the whole thread copied. Now I can’t remember where I copied it from (a few minutes ago, closed tabs...)
I wasn’t sure what the McGahn narrative was, so here is a link that seems to explain it, from the New York Slimes:

This new McGahn narrative is nonsense.
If Trump wanted Mueller fired, Mueller would have been FIRED.
I don’t trust this Mueller report of the events at all.
Let’s have McGahn come testify under oath and see what he says.
Let me repeat this again: For the past 2 years, you know who’s been putting tons of disinformation out there to keep the stupid press and Democrats from figuring out what he’s really trying to, planning to do, preparing to do?
THIS GUY and his team.
*IF* you take everything Trump & his people directly say or supposedly leak at face value, you are gonna be so confused at this point you don’t have any clue which way is up.
What do Trump and his own people tell you?
He was ‘surprised’ and ‘shocked’ and ‘flabbergasted’ when Sessions, with supposedly no warning or a ‘heads up!’ whatsoever, suddenly recused himself like 5 minutes after taking office.
What else do Trump and his team tell you? After he fired James Comey, he brought in Robert Mueller to interview for...what was it? [squints at card] Ah yes, the FBI Director job. Which he’d need a special act of Congress to hold again.
TEN MINUTES LATER TRUMP WAS SHOCKED...!
I MEAN ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED FLABBERGASTED CAUGHT WITH HIS PANTS DOWN when Rod Rosenstein suddenly, with no ‘hey heads up dude!’ at all, appointed Mueller to be the Special Counsel.
So yeah, if you buy the cover story, Trump is a clueless dick.
So this is why I have grace for people who buy the cover story. Trump *himself* is the one who put it out there.
People who insist Trump needs to “tell everybody what hes’ really doing” don’t understand what a huge honking mistake that would have been back in 2017 & 2018.
A massive successful COUNTERATTACK is coming *because* he didn’t listen to those people.
