by NoahGiven the outline of the situation in Trump's weak mind, the idea behind tonight's meme doesn't seem far-fetched at all. As the world laughs at King Salman and Bullshit Don, cooking up their childish lies and expecting us to buy them, can't we expect a calendar to be offered into evidence any day now? I can our gangster president see thinking, "Well, it worked for Brett" and hastily borrowing even the very same calendar and trying to pass it off as that of another asshole friend.It was Donald "Donnie Bullshit" Trump who first floated the "Rogue Killers" excuse in explanation of the gruesome death of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi. At the same time, he compared the idea of people accusing his Saudi friend, King Salman, to his new Supreme Court justice, Brett Kavanaugh, by whining "Now it's you're guilty until proven innocent." I wonder if gaining equal status as an obvious murderer was enough to make Kavanaugh grab a keg of beer and down it, not that he wanted an excuse.After the "Rogue Killers" explanation, the next thing we heard about the case was from King Salman who cooked up a beyond incredulous lie that Khashoggi had died in a fist fight with the king's 15 man assassination team. I guess we're also supposed to believe that Khashoggi was some sort of one man Delta Force kind of guy. Funny, he didn't look like one. Besides, how does one engage in a fistfight with even one assassin when half your fingers have already met the bone saw? Of course, Trump's supporters and apologists will jump through any hoop imaginable to believe in and propagate these things. That's how far gone they have always been.Meanwhile, Lawrence O'Donnell has the best words about this:
