PhD in Bullshitology

Trump appears to be a very rude, crude, uneducated Republican.  Most of that is true, except the last.  Trump is really very highly educated.  He actually has a doctorate, and this week, in the midst of his Spy-gate conspiracy theory, he demonstrated how adeptly he uses his PhD in Bullshitology.

President Trump charged that the FBI planted for political purposes a spy in his 2016 campaign. He tweeted [sphincter delinked] last week, “Reports are there was indeed at least one FBI representative implanted, for political purposes, into my campaign for president. It took place very early on, and long before the phony Russia Hoax became a ‘hot’ Fake News story. If true — all time biggest political scandal!”

The charge of a political spy in the campaign is so flimsy that Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani admitted [GOP liar delinked], “First of all, I don’t know for sure, nor does the president, if there really was one.” As reports show, there appears to be no such political spy in the campaign. Rather, an FBI informant spoke with campaign advisers George Papadopoulos and Carter Page after the FBI learned of their contacts with Russian operatives.

The informant also briefly contacted campaign co-chairman Sam Clovis, who had authorized Papadopoulos to visit Moscow and meet with Russian officials. There is nothing illegal or improper about using informants in a national security investigation. To the contrary, the FBI would have been derelict if it did not attempt to investigate evidence of illicit contacts with representatives of a hostile foreign power.

This latest charge continues President Trump’s attempt to discredit federal law enforcement, undermine the special counsel investigation, and possibly fire Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein who supervises the investigation…  [emphasis added]

Tote that the source article came from a site that leans right.

Lawrence O’Donnell reports on the contents of the secret briefings.

 

That Trump’s entire claim was a lie is now self-evident, but Trump gained in two areas.  Sheeple in the Republican Bubble Machine will never learn the truth.  Trump’s lawyers know more about the case against him.

RESIST THE REPUBLICAN REICH!!

  1. Well, Lawrence doesn’t mince words, does he? “Semantic infiltration” – yes. See last weeks Everyday Erinyes.

    Yesterday, on roughly the same subject, I noted:
    From what I can see, the greatest irony about this opium dream is that the F.B.I DID send someone over to the Trump campaign. Not an agent, but an informant. The reason was that they had learned that members of the campaign were meeting with/involved with/entangled with Russian assets, and they wanted to PROTECT MR. TRUMP (yes, you read that right – “PROTECT”) and any member of the staff not already compromised from BECOMING compromised. Can you say, “it didn’t work out well”?

  2. dt lies on everything he says. Unreal. Ryan bows down and skips town, meanwhile..the free press rocks, so the Dems can get their information on this. unbelievable.

  3. Remember: PhD stands for Piled High and Dry.

  4. PhD in Bullshitology eh, a graduate from trump university then?!
    ROTFL!!!!33

  5. I’m with Animae. The only place Drumpf would be awarded a honorary PhD (never a real one based on actual work) is his own fake university.

    I sometimes wonder if it wouldn’t be best if there was a ‘cordon sanitaire’ put up for Drumpf tweets by the media, and only react with a fact check. By reacting to each and every one of his ?? tweets, Drumpf is allowed to rule by tweet, and have anything he said retracted, denied, turned around or spun by the next tweet.

    By now it should be clear the GOP allows him to tweet anything he likes; the bottom has fallen out of rock-bottom, so why give those tweets even more attention and even help him dictating American speech and thought with his Semantic infiltration. Start paying attention to what he does, and especially to what he neglects to do and stop wasting time on “spy” tweets and whether talks with North Korea are on, or off, or on, or off, or…

  6. Personally I think Twitler is well-deserving of his Ph. D. in Bullshitology …

  7. “Bullshitology” ~ the degree which leaves one knee deep in that substance which is good for barnyards and gardens, but toxic to the human mind and soul. Thanks TC. Be well.

  8. A PhD in Bullshitology indeed!!!

    Drumpf’s attempt to add this new word into the English lexicon should not be allowed to take root.  This is nothing more than Drumpf’s purposeful mangling of Clapper’s words to his own ends.  Unfortunately, repeat the lie enough times and the sheeple will believe it.  To quote Drumpf, “Sad”. 

    Now that Kim Jong-un (N Korea) and Moon Jae-in (S Korea) have resumed discussions at the northern side of Panmunjom for a summit to end the 45 year hostilities, I expect to see more tweets from Drumpf on how he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.  That should never happen in a million years.

  9. Thanks Hugs and Amen to all!23
