The Rude Pundit: Our Deeply Perverse President Won't Shut the Fuck Up
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
One of the weirdest moments from last night's campaign rally for some fuckin' asshole GOP senate candidate in Great Falls, Montana (motto: "We hate those Mexicans so much even though most of us have never met one") was when, for no apparent reason other than that the roulette wheel in his brain of "Shit I Don't Like" stopped on it, President Donald Trump attacked a line that George H.W. Bush said 30 years ago. It's the equivalent of saying, "You know what always pissed me off? That St. Elsewhere finale" to a group of high school students.
Here's what our goddamned demented president said, "All the rhetoric you see here, the ‘thousand points of light,’ what the hell was that by the way? ‘Thousand points of light.’ What does that mean? Does anyone know? I know one thing. ‘Make America Great Again’ we understand. ‘Putting America first,’ we understand. ‘Thousand points of light,’ I never quite got that one." The crowd of slobbering knob gobblers hooted and laughed as Trump did his little prancy jig of derision, all agreeing that a metaphor is just too fucking hard to understand.
Now, I have no love for George H.W. Bush, and I don't give a single, hard rat turd that he's an old, old man confined to a wheelchair with a recently dead wife. Yeah, yeah, he was a war hero and he's done a lot of charitable stuff post-presidency. Fuck that guy. He was a shitty president who helped pave the way for political campaign damnation with the Willie Horton ad. And he jizzed out George W. Bush. Fuck him.
Still, Trump's attack is just fuckin' weird. First off, it wasn't Bush's 1988 campaign slogan. Those would have been "A Kinder, Gentler Nation" or "Experienced Leadership for America’s Future," which are arguably easy to comprehend. "A thousand points of light" was an instantly mockable line, but it was from a speech and Bush was talking about volunteer organizations. He even said he was talking about those. I can remember criticizing the phrase at the time, thinking, "That evil motherfucker just wants charities to take over shit that the government is supposed to do." But it wasn't too hard to understand, for fuck's sake. You'd have to be a fucking moron and/or a Trump supporter to not see what that means.
Trump's tone at his rallies has gotten increasingly deranged, increasingly threatening, and increasingly unhinged (yes, that is possible). Last night, he started his usual riff on one of his obsessions, the "truth" of Senator Elizabeth Warren's racial heritage (which is really of a piece with his refusal to accept that Barack Obama was born in Hawaii). Deriding her as "Pocahontas" - he doesn't even use her name anymore and his slavering hordes love it which makes him do it even more because leadership or something - he then created an entire scenario of facing Warren in a debate.
He literally acted it out as he said, "I'm gonna get one of those little kits. And in the middle of the debate, when she proclaims that she's from Indian heritage...We will take that little kit and say — but we have to do it gently, because we're in the #MeToo generation, so we have to be very gentle. And we will very gently take that kit, and we will slowly toss it, hoping it doesn't hit her and injure her arm, even though it only weighs probably two ounces."
So, let's see, in one small segment of a 70-minute "speech" (if by "speech," you mean, "blabbering from an old man who finally has an audience to cheer on his incoherent brain farts and misanthropy"), Trump was not just racist, but he was sexist, rapey, rape-mocking, and bullying. What a puddle of weak shit our president is.
In a single tweet in response, Warren reamed out Trump, reminding him that there are far, far more important things going on than his ability to get the yokels all het up.
Essentially, we don't have a president. How many bullshit rallies has he done in the last week? No, that's not a goddamn president. That's a mascot. We have a Philly Phanatic out there, getting the crowd pumped up, to distract from the vile, awful things done by the vile, awful people who work for this vile, awful man.

Not seeing yours, I just seeded the same thing. (Great minds think alike.) I'll remove mine.
"What a puddle of weak **** our president is." ? ?
This is all about the base. Only the Trump base. America has issues.
'We have met the enemy and he is us.' Pogo.
Well, that's what you get for listening to these "speeches". Wiser people pretty much ignore them.
Lol, the guy can literally babble incoherently, making no sense whatsoever, and get cheered for it! Unbelievable...
Do the crime bosses who hired the Joker to cause some mayhem in the middle of town care what he rambles on about before gassing them? Of course not, they're getting what they want.
Trump fluently speaks their incoherent babble. Brain damage is a relative thing.
Why do you continue to support his policies of you also admit that his speeches are nonsensical rants?
Awww you gotta love trump, he has such a (low) sense of humor, and he makes such CUTE faces while doing his stand-up.
Most people don't get "the Donald" because they're mentally over 8 yrs old.
Rude Pundit is a little too colorful but he makes the salient points.
... and the crowd went wild!!!
Not really.....it was just an idiotic comment by yet another butt hurt Trump hater. Nothing more.
Mocking Bush's Thousand Points of Light platform is almost as heinous as making fun of the reporter with the disability, or besmirching John McCain's war record with his 'I like the guys that didn't get captured' comment.
I don't care who says what, but Donald Trump needs his ass kicked. With gusto.
Oh!! The trumpsters will not be pleased!
I agree, but he turned to be right about McCain. But who's big enough to discipline him. After all, he's becoming known as Teflon Don.
He himself said that he could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot someone... and not lose a single supporter.
Trumps knows that his Unthinking Faithful TM will remain loyal regardless of what he does.
The only thing he could do to lose them would be to seriously work on racial equality. They'd drop him in an instant.
The races are pretty much equal. After all, we had the recent experiment of having a black president. Although highly unqualified and totally inexperienced, he was elected for two whole unproductive terms.
Only a total idiot would say that McCain isn't a war hero. Ask ANY of the men who were with him @ the Hanoi Hilton.
Stormy Daniels, she spanked him with a magazine with his kids on the cover.
Teflon wears off under use and Trump's is flaking off fast.
Just like he knows the butt hurt snowflakes will cry everyday because the nasty hag Hillaryious grandma Hillary lost.
I'll take his SCOTUS picks and overturning all of obamas bullshit EO's over his rhetoric any day.
Nope, as 'obummer' would kick you a$$ from there to breakfast. You may forget that, unlike your beloved fat slug of a President, Obama stays in very good physical shape.
A conservative in Canada made the same boast about Justin Trudeau.
Here's the fight.
It also fails when the heat is hot enough. And it looks like it is getting hotter and hotter by the day.
Great video, Dulay. Thanks for sharing. It was very interesting, and it was nice to see that the two boxers were able to remain civil and respectful after the fight, unlike so many pro fighters.
I can just imagine what Trump would have to say if here were the one who lots such a fight. Not that he would ever be man enough to volunteer to do something like that.
You're going to need a big foot to kick that fat arse:)
I have size 13s, can I do it?
Do you have any really sharp metal-tipped pointy cowboy boots? You'd need something that can go deep enough for trump to feel it.
Of course, then you'll have to throw that one boot away, can't be cleaned.
Who would want to clean it? After where it's been....Ewwww
Trump himself with his own mouth will verbally do just that. While he will blame all kinds of others, the world will know the truth. Only Trump and his hard core supporters who have no moral core will believe someone else is to blame. He can only play the game so long, and then he will bite of far more than he can ever chew and even his hard core supporters won't be enough to sustain him.
Well, it seems the left has degenerated even farther now that they have a "pundit" that writes like a bitter teenager who just learned a few dirty words.
So you agree with these things trump says?

What others say about The Rude Pundit:
“The only commentary about this sick and scary election season that makes me laugh. Who knew obscenity could be so healthy?"
--Michael Schnayerson, Contributing Editor, Vanity Fair
Listed with Robert Kennedy, Jr., Bruce Springsteen, and Michael Moore as ones "who stood up for democracy" - "He reduced politics to the playground. Is there a bully's nose he didn't bloody?"
-- Jesse Kornbluth, Swami Uptown , Former Contributing Editor,
Vanity Fair
" The Rude Pundit is seriously rude . . . and seriously eloquent and intelligent" -- The Reader
"The Nietzsche of the Blogosphere" -- Culture Kitchen
I don't care how "educated" a professor supposedly is. Randa Jarrar has a PhD and is still a disgusting and worthless human being. A persons level of maturity and decency isn't measured by popular approval or how many years they spent leeching off academia.
Are you referring to the pundit or Mr. Trump?
The pundit- obviously.
What a vulgar man we have now as President of the United States. That is not a question...
You stated it more nicely than I may have, but yes he is fairly much an obnoxious lout in an expensive suit and over sized tie.
The really, really, really weird part was the Elton John reference with the "organ" and the "brain".?????
A lot of people thought he was having a stroke. Read back the transcript for yourself.
I'm starting to focus on the people cheering and lauding him. Are they listening to his words? Would they like to hear those words directed at themselves or a loved one? Do they just mindlessly support him, requiring nothing but lies in return? I'm reminded of some dark moments in history.
Of course. Trumpism is a plague on our great nation, and the Trump Supporters (we are required by Newstalkers moderation to always include the word "some" when describing Trump supporters) are the main component of the spread and continuation of this plague. If he didnt have his cult followers the cult would shrivel up and die. We need to focus on the followers.
All 60 some million of us? Good luck with that.
Ummm..... being as the current population of the United States of America was 328,054,892 on July 4, 2018, s of today the population is 328,080,321 and rising.
Source:
Thus, your claim of 60 million, if true, is not really as impressive as you like to think compared to the overall US population, and pretty much a drip in the cup.
Sort of like the 2 million more votes or the 60 some mikkukion that voted for Hillary huh?
I didn't say that the number of idiot hillkary voters was exactly now did I.
Doesn't matter either way the numbers were irrelavent to the outcome anyway
Why? There's a saying 'You can't re-raise someone'. Why waste time and energy on THAT 40% when we could concentrate on getting the 40% that didn't vote to get off of their asses and get involved.
The GOP doesn't work so hard on disenfranchising voters for nothing. They know that their agenda fails with higher voter turnout, they admit it willingly.
Nope, not at all. You see, that number of vote for Hillary is a matter of fact, whereas the 60 million votes stated by Greg has not yet been proven by any accurate statistical fact.

trump received almost 63 million voted.
embarrassed my self to you?
That number is still irrelevant compared to the overall number of people in America. At least 119,000,000 in the 2016 election. (source: )
So the 63 million votes for Trump out of the at least 119,000,000 votes in the 2016 election is still a drop in a cup. Yet, you still try to make that sound like Trump won the majority of votes, which he didn't. That is still foolish.
(Deleted)
Where have I ever claimed Trump got more votes nationally. He did not he did not need to. He received that majority of the votes in 30 of the 50 states and 305 electoral college votes. The is significantly more than enough to win the election
Oh btw Hillary got approximately 65 million votes that would be a drop on the bucket also. even at that your source has a serious math problem Trump did get just short of 63 million votes Clinton got right around 65 million votes. That is a total of 128 million and there were other candidates that also received voted. Oh well they got the numbers wrong but they tried so give the a trophy.
[deleted}
I'd much rather focus on getting the 45% of the voters that didn't vote in 2016 off their asses...
These are dark days indeed, and focusing on Trump's supporters is exactly what we need to start doing. Trump is an amoral moron who will never be a decent human being, let alone president. That's the problem with this place, we aren't supposed to discuss each other, but Trump's supporters ARE the problem and what needs to be discussed.
You are correct Lenny.
Whatcha' gonna do with us. Call us names and try to hurt our feelings?
Sure why not? After all, your whole 'mission' is to mock liberals. Goose, gander.
I'm not whining, I'm QUOTING what he said in another seed.
Shhhh! Here is a little secret just for you!
TRUMP IS THE PRESIDENT!
How can that be a secret? Trump makes enough stupid noise with his mouth they can hear him in all parts of the earth. And he is making a fool not only of himself, but, of America as well.
So yeah....the fact that Trump is President of the US is by no means a secret. The whole world knows the asshat is the laughing stock US President.
You might want to get a hold of lennylynx. He's the one that said Trump would not be president in comment #9..
I don't need to get a hold of anyone here. (Deleted)
Wake up call! It is now July or 2018 and he has been president for a year and a half.
Really Arky? Damn, and I was just starting to think that Obama was still president and the Trump presidency was just a bad dream!
You were the one that said he would never be president a few days ago.
Uh, no Arky, I didn't say Trump would never be president a few days ago. Why would you say something so nonsensical?
(Deleted)
Look at your comment #9
Read it over a few more times, comprehension is key.
Tonight, the president - a man credibly accused of sexual assault by 16 women - openly mocked the me too movement, suggesting that victims are ultra sensitive or hyperbolic. The whole crowd laughed. They roared with laughter. Don’t tell me to be kind to these fucking people.
Where is a single criminal indictment much less conviction. Where are the civil judgments
Want more?
You do understand that none of those are Trump. That was the accusation
Why yes, YES I do. They are all indicted for sexual harassment after the start of the #metoo movement started.
The 'allegation' was that Trump openly mocked the #metoo movement.
BTFW, what ever happened to all of those lawsuits that Trump promised?
The Rude Pundit: Our Deeply Perverse President Won't Shut The Fuck Up
Thankfully this guy doesnt know when to shut up. Instead he doubles down over and over. Someday that will be his downfall. I've always said let trump be trump and eventually he'll trump himself.
I see no one able top take trump down but trump himself, let him speak !! Often and preferably about shit he knows little about. Eventually I believe he'll cook his own goose.
I have said many times, Trump is his won worst enemy, more than anyone else in the world. His big mouth will over load his a$$ one day and he will have no one else to blame for his downfall, although, he will try and blame Obama or Hillary, or anyone else eh can think of to blame. Anyone but himself. And the way things are going at this point, it won't be that much longer until he himself blows out the fire in his supporters who are still willing to think for themselves.
There are many better qualified and intelligent Republicans out there who may be willing to put country first over party. Trump will be a thorn in the side of the Republican party for several years to come. And not all of them are to blame.
All true
There might be a small handful but it seems that Trump truly represents what the GOP and Republicans in general have become - the latest incarnation of the Know Nothing party.
I disagree. Most of the Republicans that I know are not Trump fans, and are very much aware of his many, many faults, and did not vote for him in the election.
And they are not alone. Folks here on NT like to pretend that Trump won because he got all the votes in the election, but, in fact, he merely got enough Electoral College votes, which does not equal the total number of all votes cast in the election which taken in consideration, he would not have won.
Let see. Who lives in the White House, traveles in AF 1 and Marine 1, works in the Oval office, signed bills into law or vetos them, is the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces and is called Mr. President. That's right it is Donald Trump .He did win!
Do learn about how we elect the president in this country. the president is elected by getting the votes in the electoral college.
BTW Trump won more than enough electoral votes to win
Yes, but, my point was, he did not win the majority of the votes, only enough to meet the requirements of the electoral College, which does not represent the total votes.
However, he is not the only one to use the Electoral College to win. Others have as well. But, even so, they were a far better President than Trump.
That is irrelavent. The president is not elected by the majority vote of the whole country. He never has been. Ever.
That is all that is required by law and the constitution. It has been that way for 230 years.
It was never intended to.
No, it is not irrelevant. And I never insinuated that any President has ever won the vote of the entire country as you are trying to words in my mouth...again. However, they have won by the majority of the votes in the country.
(Deleted)
Only because of happenstance. It is not necessary to win the majority or even the plurality of the votes nationwide to win the presidency. It many times works out that way but it not required. It is that way for good reason.

Just maybe, if people would quit obsessing over Trump's every word and action, perhaps he might shut up and go away. He continues to get all this free publicity.
trump would very quickly UP the ante. trump wants to be what he is and what he does. He knows he's controversial and unpredictable and he wants it that way. That's one of his working strategies for getting ahead. At this point I doubt anyone could ignore trump for long.
Ignore trump and HE will still take the stage and YOU will know it. WHINING... sorry winning !
lol
So we aren't supposed to listen to or believe Trump? The people who give air to the worst of Trump's inclinations are his base. I know a lot of republicans like to think they aren't part of that disgusting racism, bullying and total ineptitude, but with approval in the 80's from the gop, all of them absolutely own him and his values. He is absolutely incapable of doing the job, and he couldn't care less how much damage he does. Pretty funny you don't think we should pay attention.
Why? Trump lovers here can't stop obsessing over Bill and Hillary Clinton or Obama's every word and action, and they no longer have any skin in the game. Yet the Republicans still just can't seem to stop obsessing over every word and action they have ever said or done. So who is the more obsessed?
