One of the top 10 displays of Trump's dumbassery. The guy literally has no idea what he's doing in any scenario unless it involves lying, or yelling at clouds during pep rallies.

Deciding a Trump Top 10 of dumbassery is like picking your favorite sunrise.  An abundance of data points makes comparison too difficult.  Not to mention that if you wait until tomorrow morning, there's a good chance the master of dumbassery will have topped himself again.

personally, my favorite one is denying US Citizenship to children of gay couples (either adopted or IVF) from earlier this month.

Several members of the dotard fan club think Kellyanne Conway is hot so things are relative.  But you're not wrong by any stretch.

To be fair, Kellyanne looks like she was probably decent looking in her past life.  She probably went down hill when they reanimated her corpse and stuck the current brain in there. 

She looks like D'onofrio in Men in Black when the bug wears his body as a suit.

Wait, what?

This stupid getup was talk of the town on the old site during the inauguration.  Others of us were quite bewildered by the lack of vision confirmed by some of our esteemed right wing lunatic posters.

Compared to now?  Well, OK.  On a scale of 1-10 for her age?  Nope.  Not awful, not the current reanimator look, but still a 5-6 on her best day.

He created the Laffer curve. That’s all I got. 

Say no more:

"Laffer was one of four economists who acted as advisers to Donald Trump's 2016 campaign for the presidency of the United States."

The Laffer curve is the bone spur of fiscal responsibility. 

yeah, it's pretty much the backbone of Reagan's trickle-down economics theory.  Presidential Medal of Freedom.  After Tiger.

Hey, Rob, uhm, this is John again. Uh, maybe, I-I-I'm-I'm sympathetic; I understand your situation, but let me see if I can't ... state it in ... starker terms. If you have ... and it wouldn't surprise me if you've gone on to make a deal with, and, uh, work with the government, uh ... I understand that you can't join the joint defense; so that's one thing. If, on the other hand, we have, there's information that. .. implicates the President, then we've got a national security issue, or maybe a national security issue, I don't know ... some issue, we got to-we got to deal with, not only for the President, but for the country. So ... uh ... you know, then-then, you know, we need some kind of heads up. Um, just for the sake of ... protecting all our interests, if we can, without you having to give up any ... confidential information. So, uhm, and if it's the former, then, you know, remember what we've always said about the President and his feelings toward Flynn and, that still remains, but-Well, in any event, uhm, let me know, and, uh, I appreciate your listening and taking the time. Thanks, Pal.

damn. he's the dude that advised Brownback to bankrupt Kansas.

Laffer was an economic adviser to Kansas Governor Sam Brownback, who in 2012 zeroed out state tax liability for approximately 330,000 of the top wage earners in the state, contending it would be a "shot of adrenaline into the heart of the Kansas economy."[30][31] The state, which had previously had a budget surplus, experienced a budget deficit of about $200 million in 2012. Drastic cuts to state funding for education and infrastructure were implemented to close budget deficits and the Kansas economy underperformed relative to neighboring states.[32] Brownback's tax overhaul was described in a June 2017 article in The Atlantic as the United States' "most aggressive experiment in conservative economic policy".[33] The drastic tax cuts had "threatened the viability of schools and infrastructure" in Kansas.[33]

The Brownback experiment didn’t work. We saw that loud and clear.

— Heidi Holliday, executive director of the Kansas Center for Economic Growth 2017

I think it's pretty sound reasoning to assume that there is a tax rate where revenue is maximized.  It's not 0% and it's not 100%.  

The problem is that the supply side twats always assume that rate is somewhere below whatever the current rate is.

The best part is watching the supposedly principled guys like Rand Paul, Mitt Romney, and Lindsey Graham have to completely deny reality for Donald Trump. 

Everyone’s mask comes off as they all put their Trump hats hoods on.
