Lawrence On ‘The Clear And Present Danger Of Mark Esperanto’ | The Last Word | MSNBC

  1. Trump’s capable of ordering the slaughter of an ally, he’s dangerous and must be removed from office before he committs unimaginable horrors on who knows who…

    1. Claudy, you are as big a buffoon as Lawrence. Your post is simply ridiculous. It reminds me of someone in 2nd grade.

    2. @Christine Wright Weird – I specifically avoid apocalyptic language and comparison but I’m totally with you, something about this guy is Biblical (in a bad way) and Armageddonish.

    1. @Brendan Biele it would be funny if it weren’t so dangerous. And, the folks that follow him…what’s their excuses?

    2. True. He is not concerned about anybody or what they are doing. Several people (Including Omarosa), who were fired, said they were encouraged to STAY ON THEIR JOBS and tell nobody! Why? Trump didn’t want them to leave and write books about him. Just think! They could have stayed at the WH, do absolutely no work and collect a free check!

    1. The Baby King Trump will not be happy nor satisfied until he gets to press the red button. The U.S. is no longer a Republic. It is now a Monarchy, run by a Baby King and his evil enablers.

  2. Trump doesn’t care about being President or acting in the national interest. He only cares about his own immediate personal interests from one day to the next.

    1. This goes along with something, I have suspectected/known for a while, “He doesn’t run Trump International an Army of Lawyers & Business Managers do that for him!” He shows up once a week for Photo Ops and to sign contracts and pay checks…

  3. From one minute to the next he doesn’t know who he is let alone his secretary of defense.
    DJT aka John Baron aka David Dennison. In an imaginary world……

    1. Or “you scratch my bedbug sores…” At Doral there’s apparently a nasty bedbug infestation in the Jack Nicholas “bungalow”. 🐜🐜

  4. “The most laziest president in history and the most ignorant president in history”. 100% Correct.

    1. Jer, your comment is true of obamanure – not President Trump. President Trump is bringing our troops home from the endless wars. obamanure was a warmonger.

  5. Freudian slip on the part of Trump. “Esperanto” means “one who hopes.” For real. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! Keep hoping Trump the Schlump.

    1. > He’d make more sense if he spoke in Esperanto.

      As a fluent Esperanto speaker, I just want to say – I don’t think so.

  6. And right there Lawrence solved that lingering question of how trump retains at least 30% support of the American people – he tweets at their level

  7. And, of course, there is Deceptive Don the Con’s pseudonyms: “John Barron,” “John Miller,” and “David Dennison,” and now we learn of Mitt Romney and his “Pierre ‘In Flagrante Delicto’ Delecto.”

    1. I would argue little analogy between Trump’s motivation in using pseudonyms & Romney’s to have use of a low profile Twitter account. Legions do the latter for obvious and innocuous reasons.

    2. @C A Argue all you want about motivations–it’s an example of slimy, duplicitous behavior so typical of far too many elected officials who have platitudes about transparency.

  8. Another “danger” is that nothing surprises us any more with Trump, and we’re accustomed to just another screw up episode in this wacky reality show.

    1. There can no longer be any question – trump is the Antichrist who is the great Deceiver, who is even now deceiving the so-called “Christian” community, who have replaced Jesus with their new King Trump. Jesus warned us this would happen in the last days. Matthew 24 and 25.
