No wonder he's orange. He's completely full of s**t (which is brown, but makes his skin look orange from underneath).

That's untrue on so many levels. Yet technically it isn't a lie, since Trump probably does in fact believe what he says.

I literally lol'd at that one. Next he will order the Cabinet to do an All Hail! to the Tremendous Leader. The Hill had one comment that compared this to a DPRK meeting. I agree.

Praised be the Glorious Trump!!

Well, let's look on the bright side... unlike North Korea, nobody is taken out of the building and shot if they aren't praising him enthusiastically enough.

That's because nobody is foolish enough not to praise Trump when they're graced by his presence.

To be technically, correct, Trump has signed a lot of legislation. (Although not since FDR - Truman beat Trump handily, something the WH used to acknowledge, but Trump has apparently inflated a little (going from "since Truman" to Since FDR").)  From the piece,

It is a heavy legislative lift to name a post office.

When it was his turn to speak, did you hear what White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus said about Trump:
"We thank you for the opportunity and blessing to serve your agenda."

LOL.
They are literally treating the narcissistic clown like some kind of god !
You just cant make this sh*t up.
Comedy Hour at the White House ..... talk about this Administration looking like a circus .... well here is the best evidence.

You have got to see this video !
Chuck Schumer was quick off the line to mock Trump with this re-creation of the Cabinet meeting.

The original video doesn't even need parody. Timestamped.

(This post brought over from another thread.)
I read an article about every member of Trump's cabinet praising him after he boasted about his (fake) accomplishments and I thought "this must be one of those stories based on anonymous sources that the media is writing up for sensationalist purposes.' Not only is it true, it was on taped and televised.

How can anybody accept this lunacy?  This is the sort of behavior that would be expected from Stalinist Soviet Union or North Korea.

It didn't hit me until you pointed this out Adam T.
You are correct about this cabinet meeting "behavior" being similar to North Korea.
It is comparable to the video images we see when government officials are ALL seen standing and clapping endlessly, when Kim Jong-Un is present.
Either pledge and show your unwavering loyalty in front of the cameras (and make yourself look like a total idiot on TV), or get-out.
