Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsWhile listening to news radio in the shower, I heard DJT say
something to the effect that he didn't intend to depict himself as Jesus, he thought he was depicting himself as a doctor and the nurse was a Red Cross nurse.
Either way, he's out of his effing mind. Why is that not obvious to every single person in this country? Every single day is a double dose of WTF. It's so tiresome (and frightening) to me.
Edited to add: In BumRushDaShow's post in Latest Breaking News, response no. 22 from muriel_volestrangler has DJT's exact quote.

But upon reconsideration, nah . . . . . .
And BTW, my father was a doctor. Trump is decidedly not practicing medicine according to the standards of the AMA.

(25,503 posts)It defies belief that he (or someone) altered the image, replacing a US soldier with a flying demon, and did not know what the image was.
This was not an inadvertent error. This was not an innocent mistake. Someone planned this out, presumably showed it to him, and he was delighted enough that he posted it himself.

He can't do an executive order to issue one to himself.

(2,856 posts)but sometimes it just sneaks up on me. I've been listening to news radio in the shower for years, especially when I was working. I always liked hearing the latest news, traffic and weather every morning. After I moved closer to the office, I wasn't so concerned with the traffic any more. Now that I'm retired, I still listen to the news channel, but only in the shower. I guess old habits die hard.
And yes, hearing his stupid voice while I was trapped in the shower was a horrible experience. 😫
