Today in things that are bad for country...

Pictured: just some of the seven
billion humans I find more credible.
Wai-wai-wait. The President is upset because he thinks NBC News is spouting bullshit. The current President. Trump. Donald Trump. Ok. So the bullshit or probably not bullshit story is that the President said he wanted a 'tenfold' increase in America's nuclear arsenal...which totally sounds like something he'd say, right? Besides, according to NBC it comes from three officials who were in the meeting this summer, he totally said it and seriously who are we going to believe? Donald Trump or literally anyone else on the planet? Living or dead. Real or fictitious.

Hey, while we're on the subject of
things that are bad for country...
Anyway, in his blind denials and Tweet flailing, the President threatened today to get NBC's FCC license revoked. Behold:

"With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!"

-President Trump on how
the press is bad for country

I know what she'll be doing tomorrow...
For crying the fuck out loud. So obviously the suggestion is A: a bone-chilling and fascistic assault on the First Amendment and B: not a thing he can do, but what the shit? He then reportedly followed the Tweet with a rare verbal comment, using his mouth and everything:

"It is frankly disgusting the press is able to write whatever it wants to write."

-The President...no, really

Frankly disgusting or the first responsibility of a free and independent press? Because I get those two confused sometimes too.*
He knows freedom of the press is like #1 on the list, right?
It's even before the one idiots think is about assault rifles.
*I don't, I'm just trying to be magnanimous.
