Sorry John Kelly, but you're not going to find too many Waffle Houses across the pond.

Well, somebody's not telling the truth and I'm pretty sure I know who that is...

Papa John's founder John Schnatter resigns as chairman of board after using racial slur

The best part is he said it on a conference call about how to avoid PR Disasters.

From the article:

The controversy comes only seven months after Schnatter relinquished his CEO role after criticizing National Football League players for kneeling during the national anthem, blaming the outcry surrounding their protests for slowing sales growth at Papa John's, at the time an NFL sponsor and advertiser.

I'm thinking Papa John is a shoo-in to join the Trump administration, they are after all looking for the best people.

Here is apparently what he said:

"Colonel Sanders called blacks n-----s" without any public backlash against KFC", and described "growing up in Indiana, where black people were sometimes dragged from trucks until they died",

I look forward to those "pizza" joints closing up by the hundreds.

If Make America Great Again doesn't poll as well in the re-election campaign, they could go with something like Better Ingredients. Better Administration. Papa Trump's.

In summary...

-Trump, at worst, pissed off and at best annoyed our allies yet again at the summit, allies in something we should all be reminded has been one of the most successful peace alliances in the past several centuries of human history
-Trump insulted Germany and claimed they get 70% of their energy from Russia, they do not
-Trump said other nations agreed to increase spending beyond the 2% of GDP, they did not
-Trump claimed credit for this even though it's only a continuation of a 2014 agreement, and again, didn't happen anyway
-Trump repeatedly characterizes the "contribution" to NATO as if it's some slush fund the US has footed the bill for and other countries have not, when in fact, it's simply what countries spend on their defense
-Trump claimed he could unilaterally withdraw from NATO on his authority, he cannot


No understanding of the real issues. Insults and threats that alienate us from our allies. Claims that he has solved a problem that he either didn't solve or wasn't a problem to begin with. International relations as usual in the Trump campaign!

What a complete fucking idiot. (Looking forward to seeing that baby balloon.)

Things are getting touchy in Columbus...

Stephanie Clifford, the pornographic film actress who said she had an affair with Donald J. Trump before he became president, was arrested and charged with three misdemeanors at a strip club in Columbus, Ohio, her lawyer said Thursday.

Ms. Clifford, who performs under the name Stormy Daniels, had been scheduled to appear at Sirens Gentlemen’s Club in northeastern Columbus on Wednesday and Thursday, according to the club’s website.

She was charged with three counts of misdemeanor sex offenses, according to the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office. She was released from the Jackson Pike jail in Columbus on Thursday after posting $6,054 cash bail.

The charges “stem from an allegation that while performing, she engaged in touching with customers who turned out to be undercover vice officers,” Ms. Clifford’s lawyer, Michael J. Avenatti, said in a telephone interview. Mr. Avenatti said that Ms. Clifford would plead not guilty.

Since we can't trust the #FakeNews, @dash , I think we're gonna all need the address of that club to go investigate this matter personally.

Her lawyer:

This was a setup & politically motivated. It reeks of desperation.

In the city in the middle of the Bluest county in Ohio, with a Dem Mayor and all Dem council AND on the middle of a gerrymandered district with Dem representation, in a state with one Dem (who may run against Trump next time out) and one Repub Senator, (who pushed back against the healthcare repeal). In the state with a Repub Governor who told Trump to pound sand when offered the Veep job.

Here.

Here is where they want to help Trump?

No, jackhole. Maybe your client is just an idiot who didn't read the very strict local laws and didn't know that the CPD has a Vice Squad in every club every night looking for EXACTLY what your fucking retarded client did.

I know EXACTLY where it is!

Because, Yanni's Greek restaurant is right across the parking lot. Oh my God, that place is so great. It's like 5 miles from my office. SOOOOO good. Out of this world desserts.

ohhhhhh, I forgot about good old Mike DeWine. He's the Ohio AG who helped push the puritanical laws in the first place. He wants Sessions' Job and plans to run for Governor next time out should he not get a job in the administration. Trump is an "ally".

She's still an idiot who didn't read the laws, but perhaps there was a bit of extra attention paid to this event.
