No way. He (Hegseth) is the perfect Trump acolyte. Wholly incompetent, unfailingly loyal, a racist, a nativist, and a homophobe. He will be the last man standing with The Wicked Man. The Martin Bormann of the Trump Administration.
Yes it would be hilarious but there’s no mistaking that trump smacker on the kid’s face, although in his defense he hasn’t shown the smugness that accompanies Donald’s puss.
yes...compare photos of Barron and his father when he was about 50 years younger and there's no mistaking how much he looks like DonOld...when Don wasn't OLD . Poor kid...
Wait a minute!! My dressage horse was magnificent to look at, gentle with me (an inexperienced rider) and had kind loving eyes.. MTG is none of the above!
It must have been wishful thinking on my part-- I just looked it up and couldn't find that to be true. It seemed like he was central at first in 2017 and then got marginalized or otherwise quieted later on. Now I don't remember. Not that I really want to remember any of that time period!
But maybe he can still be gotten out of there somehow.
I've read that Miller, along with Steve Bannon and Jeff Sessions, were the original hatchers of a plot to elect someone who could serve as their figurehead and carry out their dreams of getting rid of immigrants. T ended up being their guy.
SM did become invisible as time went on. That way he kept extraordinary power over the horrific actions taken regarding immigration -- and no one could point a finger at him. I always found it ironichorrible that a man whose Great-grandfather and family escaped a pogrom in Belarus and immigrated to the United States to find freedom would want immigrants from other countries to be forbidden refuge. Of course during WW II, many many Jews from Germany were turned away from the U.S., and subsequently died when forced to return to Europe.
Stephen Miller is not likely to be the next to go down. He and Vought are the architects of Trump’s administration and I can’t see them falling out of favor. They don’t have what it takes to piss off DJT. Marco Rubio has drunk enough kool-aide he can’t think straight (if he ever could).
Oh my, I had forgotten all about the pillow guy. And now I'm remembering how the tRump family promoted Goya products. You can't make this stuff up. Every day a new level of insanity.
Chef Pati Jinich switched from Goya products (as a sponsor, I believe) to La Costeña products. I'm sure it was deliberate. She is savvy & has a heart. An immigrant from México, she exudes a warm & welcoming vibe in her PBS shows. Her Jewish ancestors left Europe for México. She connects with immigrant communities & other brown people through cooking & food. She was welcomed in the Obama White House, but I'm sure we'll never see her in Trumpendejo's sullied White House.
Calling his pillows lumpy is the ultimate insult to Mike MyPillow. I saw a clip of him losing it over that (y'all probably did, too) and pretty much all he could say after such insult was "asshole!"
😅😅😅OMG! Priceless! Epstein has become the chief fire-builder in Hell. Preparing the fires for a shitload of quick burning criminals. Definitely a bonfire of the venalities. Didn't you love elmo muck's t-shirt? Occupy Mars. May he depart soon.
I’ve been saying the same thing. It’s like the time I agreed with Lindsey Graham on something (so long ago I don’t remember what). This is truly a parallel universe!
Ms. Graham said that both Republicans options for the 2016 nominee ( Trump and Cruz) would ruin the country. Where is that Ms. Graham now? Sold your soul for Trump? Was it worth it?
Andy and friends....better and better. Helping us all stay sane in these dark times. Since the list is so long...I just want to add Marco Rubio and Kristi Noem (any anyone who works for her) and Caroline Leavitt. Oh, and throw Kash Patel in there. Any anyone who supports his deportation of innocent people, the incarceration of children, and anyone who works for ICE - the new Gestapo. Sic semper tyrannis.
… Trump responded: “The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts. I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!”
… Musk: “In light of the President’s statement about cancellation of my government contracts, SpaceX will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft immediately.”
(Dragon is used to bring supplies to the International Space Station)
… Musk also came back with this: “Time to drop the really big bomb: Donald Trump is in the Epstein files
Brilliant!!!! And yet, the MAGA crowd loves him (T). Inexplicable. And I don't get why they think men have been demoralized and demoted and debunked WHEN the men (not all but in certain categories that hang with this ridiculous attitude) prey on women, demoralize them, use them, discard them and then say Boo Hoo. Please explain.
Office pool! Who does Trump fall out with next?
Hegseth! Please please please!!! And everyone else that folks bet on.
Can I do a group pool on the entire f'ing cabinet?
No way. He (Hegseth) is the perfect Trump acolyte. Wholly incompetent, unfailingly loyal, a racist, a nativist, and a homophobe. He will be the last man standing with The Wicked Man. The Martin Bormann of the Trump Administration.
Martin Bormann good analogy very accurate.
True, damn it.
Would rather see Noem out. Have had enough of her.
Not ICE Barbie!
She gets my vote.
yes please
I was gonna say Gabbard, Noem, Marco, but let’s just lump them all together in one big smelly dung heap.
--and light a fire?
Yes, you may.
I love the idea, but he is such a useful idiot.
She can do better. It would really be funny if she ran off with Elon. And it turned out Elon is Barron's real father.
Yes it would be hilarious but there’s no mistaking that trump smacker on the kid’s face, although in his defense he hasn’t shown the smugness that accompanies Donald’s puss.
Give him time. The night is young.
yes...compare photos of Barron and his father when he was about 50 years younger and there's no mistaking how much he looks like DonOld...when Don wasn't OLD . Poor kid...
too late...that happened ages ago.
Stephen Miller or Russell Vought?
I can't like this one enough.
Let us pray so! Light those candles, swing those beads!
Likes-a-million!
LOVE THIS!
SM AND RV?
Yes -- make it a two-fer!
I'd like it to be Vought first. I don't want to live in a christo-fascist world.
Oh he'll never lose Stephen Miller, that's his boy!
They can't leave. They're the ones running the country.
MTG and Kristi Noem!!!
Please please please!!!
I said both of those too! They’re just so nauseating and face-slappable… and add Boebert to the nauseating group
And KKKaroline Lying Leavitt🤬
She’s a pip and a half!
Like the Walmart or Dollar Tree edition of Macbeth's three witches
Very good!
Throw Bobo under the bus as well.
The Karens of Congress!
But it would also be fun to watch them try to ride out the Trump train wreck.
(Who is MSG? I know I should know, but I don't.)
kdsherpa:
MSG is that "secret ingredient" some restaurants use to "bring out the flavor" of foods, thus stimulating your appetite for them.
MTG causes loss of appetite and, in many cases, nausea/vomiting/diarrhea.
(!)
Excellent!
🤣
Oh good grief!
It's a typo.
I meant MTG!
Sorry!! 😟
Which is more harmful to your health: MSG or MTG?
You can flush MSG with water. Not so much MTG.
If only to flush her out, period!
Just hold her under.
Janeo:
it's contents, however...
BTAM:
MTG, no contest!. [see my prev comment above]
The effects of MSG are temporary (a few hours?) and serve a valid purpose, but the effects of MTG will last indefinitely and have zero value.
She is the typo.
The Uber-Archetype of Typos!
Marjorie Taylor Green
Ptooey.
🙈🙉
No apology needed--you've inspired more great comments!
No problem! I googled MSG hoping for a clue, but all I came up with was monosodium glutamate, AKA salt. LOL!
Salt is NaCl
The whole bunch of these beauties really do make a ClaN
Although MSG is also a salt.
Nothing to apologize for, Patty. You were great.
I wish that Marjorie would put on some clothes with sleeves. I can’t stand looking at her. Is she transitioning to a man…..or maybe a horse?
Wait a minute!! My dressage horse was magnificent to look at, gentle with me (an inexperienced rider) and had kind loving eyes.. MTG is none of the above!
🫣🤣
good mistake to make...it fosters more comedy
Good typo!
MonoSodium Glutamate.
Nice!
Marjorie Taylor Green [MTG]
Now go to your room without any supper for using bad language.
Haven't mtg and the orange sadist already had something of a falling out? Not sure.
I think it’s on the verge because she just dissed his big beautiful bill and said she didn’t really read it (no surprise there)
She can't read
Neither can Trump
lol
Darn, you beat me to it!
--and Jasmine Crockett would have something to say about that,
such as: "Did your eyelashes get in the way of reading this bill, hmmm?"
It's so much fun to watch that merry-go-round of fools try knocking each other off! -- and succeeding.
Make that merry-go-round go faster and faster!
Yes so they can all spin off into cyberspace…
oooh MTG would be good but he can't kick her out of congress. But Georgia voters can.
Please let it be Stephen Miller!
He is the most dangerous, heartless and destructive of all. And he did get tossed out during T 1.0, if I remember correctly, so it could happen.
He did? I don't remember that.
It must have been wishful thinking on my part-- I just looked it up and couldn't find that to be true. It seemed like he was central at first in 2017 and then got marginalized or otherwise quieted later on. Now I don't remember. Not that I really want to remember any of that time period!

It looks like his family can't make any sense out of him either. Taken over by demons at birth?
I voted for him as the Traitor of the Year! He earned it.
Stephen Miller is not likely to be the next to go down. He and Vought are the architects of Trump’s administration and I can’t see them falling out of favor. They don’t have what it takes to piss off DJT. Marco Rubio has drunk enough kool-aide he can’t think straight (if he ever could).
Yessssss!!!
Laura looms
She crossed my mind
Oh, I'm so sorry! Did you see an exorcist?
Yes! LL was kicked off the island once before by Susie Weils, but Dump cannot resist her. Ewww.
Mike Johnson!
He definitely doesn't have the spine. But I would like to see that bobblehead leave.
Mike Johnson is such a nothing burger. NOT the brightest bulb on the planet and the things he says are lame, like, “How high should I jump, sir?”
Bobblehead is so perfect the name. I wonder if Trump might like the suggestion for when Mikey screws up?
He can take her with him.
That guy is the worst kind of evil. A smiling devil.
Good idea!!!
Putin.......and he will be demanding all of his money back.
Need to see Putin and Musk argue about who really owns Trump. Who paid the most?
I can't like this one enough either!
👏👏👏
Another wrestling match on WWE! Gold lame spandex twisted and pulled
all around.
Then Putin can show off his hunky body on OnlyFans to recoup his losses from Trump!
Will trump be wearing his diaper under his gold lame spandex?
I could have lived without that mental image, Susan.
It would be repaid in meme-coin, bitcoin, or something else equally
useless and ridiculous!
Let’s not be choosy. His entire cabinet, office staff, and family. I think we should limit his options to just Americans for now.
Well, do we count elon and melania as Americans?
For this, hell yes!
LOL!!!
They are both naturalized Americans (I think), and they can be deported.
J.D., when Trump takes away his office sofa....
😂😂
Nixon, also Fromm hell
Please, please, make it be Karoline! I cannot deal with her chirpy little lies for one more minute!
KKK aroline Lyin' Leavitt🤬
Linda McMahon
Laura Looney Tunes
OMG I can't decide. Actually waiting to see who wins Sunday's contest for the most evil in the labyrinth of 47.
Pretty much everyone else in Taco Don's cabal are too spineless and easily dominated to ever stand up to the Fuhrer.
Isn’t the question “who doesn’t he fall out with”. Just for fun how about MTG?
Thanks again for the levity. You never cease to bring a laugh.
Thanks, Julie!
Hopefully Peter Thiel. The fucking bastard
And Stephen Miller
Well said! And along the same lines let’s toss in mike lindell pillow guy with the lousy pillows.
--sewing sheets and linen in prison for pennies a day!
Me like
Oh my, I had forgotten all about the pillow guy. And now I'm remembering how the tRump family promoted Goya products. You can't make this stuff up. Every day a new level of insanity.

She connects with immigrant communities & other brown people through cooking & food. She was welcomed in the Obama White House, but I'm sure we'll never see her in Trumpendejo's sullied White House.
That's fantastic. Hopefully some of her viewers noticed the change. I'll have to check out her show -- thanks for the info!
How has tRump survived this long given how he treats his body?
Preservatives? Ketchup, the Magic Elixir?
The only good habits he has are not smoking or drinking; guess they compensate for the rest of his self-abuse.
Yes !...but hold off, plesse...until the jury comes in with a " guilty" verdict !!!
Calling his pillows lumpy is the ultimate insult to Mike MyPillow. I saw a clip of him losing it over that (y'all probably did, too) and pretty much all he could say after such insult was "asshole!"
😅😅😅OMG! Priceless! Epstein has become the chief fire-builder in Hell. Preparing the fires for a shitload of quick burning criminals. Definitely a bonfire of the venalities. Didn't you love elmo muck's t-shirt? Occupy Mars. May he depart soon.
Linda,
Love "bonfire of the venalities.".
Also, "elmo [sh]muck"
Bonfire of the batshit bastards!
Elmo Muck courtesy of Tom Cleaver. Maybe you know his substack?
Linda,
I didn't but now I'll have to make it a point to.
Thanks for the tip!
TCin LA. I believe that is still the title. Most of his writing is under "Poking Around..."
Ta!
I’ll even pack him a nice lunch. And a quarter to call home.
No quarter.
No pennies.
Linda MacDonald, Elmo muck has a nice ring to it.
Looks like Trump got punked by Musk, Putin, Xi, and BeeBee N all in just 4 months!
Aaannndddd I just saw a headline saying Musk says Trump should be impeached.
Correct
Best news I've had in awhile. Hoping he can buy a few Senators to implement.
How odd to find myself agreeing with a schmuck who gave a nazi salute...
I’ve been saying the same thing. It’s like the time I agreed with Lindsey Graham on something (so long ago I don’t remember what). This is truly a parallel universe!
Ms. Graham said that both Republicans options for the 2016 nominee ( Trump and Cruz) would ruin the country. Where is that Ms. Graham now? Sold your soul for Trump? Was it worth it?
You’re on to something!
Not to mention designing the world's ugliest truck ever!!!
He was just an idiot on Ketamine who thought he could buy himself friends.
Oh, wow!
I hate it when Musk says something i agree with!...If Trump gets impeached will Musk get his money back?
No refunds or returns, Janeo.
In fact, he has to pay extra for the "happy ending".
--and Stormy would say that is a long, long time wait with Trump!
🤣
Next the Muskrat buys up enough Republicons to get it done. (They'll be available at bargain prices. If he buys two he'll get one free! )
Yeeeehaaah!
One thing I love about you, Andy - It's Never Too Soon. Baaahaaaa This superego feud should be epic.
Andy and friends....better and better. Helping us all stay sane in these dark times. Since the list is so long...I just want to add Marco Rubio and Kristi Noem (any anyone who works for her) and Caroline Leavitt. Oh, and throw Kash Patel in there.

OMG! Get the popcorn ready!
Loved the comment about the Dragon Spacecraft. I could hear Musk snicker.
He has strategically positioned his businesses to be able to control the world.
Yet once again I am audibly laughing!
Audibly laughing? I spit out my tea. Andy, thank goodness for your column. I don’t know how you do this so often and so well. But I’m glad you do.
I've said he needs to post a Snort Alert on a scale from, say 1 to 5, with each post. I hate snorting hard and having my tea come out my nose! LOL
I think there's a TBR hilarity scale in the making:
Level one: tittering
Level two: quiet laughter
Level three: LOL
Level four: snorting
Level five: spitting out a liquid
Level six: paroxysms of laughter
Level seven: can't catch your breath for 5 minutes laughter
Level eight: reaching humor nirvana? Expoding? Not sure where we go from here.
Wetting pants. Duh!
😂😂😂
Loved the wetting pants, Duh!!😂😂😂
Gotta add "snortle" in there somewhere, whereby each time you snort, you laugh at the snort and snort again, and on and on..
Definitely have to add that!
Like the snortle!
One becomes one with the Cosmos of the Universe Ridiculous.
I should have consulted you earlier!
Guess I've collected enough of these reactions and here's the best place to release them:spitting
snorting
spraying
spewing
Snickering
splattered

guffawing
one possibility of throwing up from laughing so hard

laughing and cringeing
standing ovation and whistle followed by caffeine spew
<snort laugh>
choking on my breakfast
sniggles (snort-giggles)
dissolves in laughter
(me pondering, wheels turning, smoke coming out of ears...)
hit me like upside the head and I couldn’t stop laughing
picked herself off the floor
empty one's bladder before reading
belly laugh before coffee
caused a giant breakfast mess across my keyboard
You're killing me to death

coffee, tea, OJ or cereal coming out the nose
laughing so loud I woke up the dogs
morning belly laughter

my snorting woke up the cat
coffee splatter

snorting and on the floor
(LOL) involuntary, loud, long
Dying!!!!!!!
I laughed my Trump off
coffee-spitting, pillow mouth-stuffing, side splitting hysterical laughter
howling
fucking howling
almost fell off my chair
nearly fell off the couch
literally weeping
actually clapped out loud
(snicker)
crack up nonstop
Laughing hysterically, bows deeply.
gave me a very large smile
caused an unknown substance to discharge itself from deep inside my nose.

was about to add wetting pants and snortle, bust decided to post and END this!
The Trump/Musk feud reminds me of a playground fight at Eddie Haskel Junior High.
Or a spat between two teenage girls over a boy. How pathetic is the USA?
The bromance came to an end. Finally. No worries Jeffrey, you’ll have company sometime. Not sure when.
Not soon enough.
Truth Social vs Twitter(X). I hope they knock each other out!
Steve Miller, because … just because. I love it when fascists destroy each other.
Visibly! So we can all enjoy it without having to be on Xitter or False Social.
Brilliant!!!! And yet, the MAGA crowd loves him (T). Inexplicable. And I don't get why they think men have been demoralized and demoted and debunked WHEN the men (not all but in certain categories that hang with this ridiculous attitude) prey on women, demoralize them, use them, discard them and then say Boo Hoo. Please explain.
Inexplicable. Needs further research. I'm willing to donate to that.
There’s so many how do we pick?? I’m laughing and laughing!!
Class action??
