Everyone knows it's a Chinese hoax to damage the USA economy.

I clearly believe it, lord commander Trump would never lie.

Or C) Keep poking fun at Trump and America for electing him.

Being American doesn't stop you from making fun of Canada!

We elected him just to piss off the rest of the world it seems to be working.

Jersey Shore and Kardashians!

Poutine! It's so good and yet so terrible for health. I'm surprised Americans aren't into that much yet.

Don't think that's really sunk in yet. Trump wasn't elected because he's any good at politics, damn he's horrible at *politics* (though amazing at other things). Trump was elected to signal a giant middle finger from the electorate to the ruling political class.

Well Kathy Griffith stepped in something, but CNN has completely discredited themselves by not taking immediate action to fire one of their most disgusting hosts.

I mean anyone remember the rodeo-clown that dressed up as Obama and THAT backlash?

(Newser) – Kathy Griffin has been fired by CNN in the wake of her President Trump photo flap. "CNN has terminated our agreement with Kathy Griffin to appear on our New Year's Eve program," the network tweeted Wednesday. Griffin, who was also dumped by Squatty Potty in the wake of the scandal, has apologized for what many are calling a "vile" and "disgusting" image of her holding what appears to be Trump's bloody severed head. Griffin has co-hosted the New Year's Eve special with Anderson Cooper for the past 10 years, and Cooper responded to the photo saying he was "appalled," Variety reports. "It is clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate." Trump himself also called Griffin out for the photo, saying his children are "having a hard time" with it.

CNN Dumps Kathy Griffin
Comedian will no longer co-host New Year's Eve special in wake of photo flap

Being American doesn't stop you from making fun of Canada!

But we do.

You guys use Cheese Curds instead of chili. That's what makes your food so loltastic.

A Pennsylvania man was arrested at President Donald Trump's Washington hotel early on Wednesday after police found a rifle, pistol and ammunition in his car, a discovery they said may have prevented a disaster in the U.S. capital.

Bryan Moles, 43, of Edinboro, was taken into custody shortly after checking in to the Trump International Hotel a few blocks from the White House, Metropolitan Police Chief Peter Newsham told a news conference.

A tipster had told the Pennsylvania State Police that Moles was traveling to Washington with weapons, and the information was passed on to the Secret Service and Washington police, Newsham said.

"I believe that the officers and our federal partners and in particular the tipster coming forward averted a potential disaster here in our nation's capital," Newsham said.

Moles was arrested without incident, the chief said.

Asked about reports that Moles had made threatening remarks, Newsham said his motive was under investigation and there was not enough information to charge Moles with making threats. The nature of the threats has not been divulged.

The Secret Service said in a statement it also was investigating the incident but said that no one under its protection was ever at risk.

Police had been told Moles had a Glock 23 pistol and a Carbon 15 Bushmaster rifle, an incident report said. Officers saw one of the guns in his car and found a second firearm in the glove compartment.

Moles also had 30 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition and 60 .223-caliber rounds, the report said. He was charged with two counts of carrying a pistol without a license and possessing unregistered ammunition.

Police spokeswoman Karimah Bilal had no information about an attorney for Moles.

Trump's hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue, housed in a landmark former post office, has become a focal point for protests against the Republican president since he took office in January.

Edinboro Police Chief Jeff Craft said by telephone that Moles had no criminal record in the western Pennsylvania town and was not known to police.

You would think being from Pennsylvania was punishment enough.

How dare you disparage an original 13 colony on a Wednesday !
