When Trump has those round tables where everyone tells him how great he is and

thanks him for, (something...I forget) do his people set this up and tell them what to say?

It is so cringey.

Yes, all take turns praising Trump during his Cabinet meeting today. I do think it is mandatory!

“Are you ready for this, media?”
Pam Bondi turns to the press and says Trump saved “258 million lives.”

That’s not a press briefing that’s a cult sermon with a camera crew.

At this rate, they’ll credit him for inventing oxygen next.

LOTS of responses on twitter--All, so far like below.


Truly his finger cannot be that interesting. Castro Rubio is struggling with his conscience. I don't think he will last the year out. If he is truly a faithful man; his spirit is in turmoil.

Donald Trump at the Cabinet meeting:

"This is an impressive group of people."

No, it is not.

It's a group of spineless, inept sycophants fluffing for him.
