TFG: Marc A. Thiessen
Ever notice that people who spell their name "Marc" are nearly uniformly assholes? Thiessen, Andreessen, are two classic cases. This Fucking Guy returns
This fucking guy:
Look, my wife made me re-sub to the WaPo. I do enjoy some of their reporting, but I have been diligent to avoid the Opinions.
But once in a while I see something that is so batshit insane, and today Marc A. Thiessen is an exemplar.
First, here’s a gifted link to this OpEd, in case you want to get really upset.
Thiessen is a member of the hacky group of Trump taint-lickers on the Opinion staff at the Post, so when he dribbles this “Santorum1” out of his face-anus, it is not surprising:
A day later, Zelensky was engaged in an unprecedented war of words with Trump in the Oval Office — after which the planned signing of a historic minerals deal between the two countries was shelved.
The blowup was Zelensky’s fault. To understand why, one needs to watch the entire 50-minute meeting unfold. Trump greeted Zelensky graciously, praising the courage and resilience of the Ukrainian people, and dismissed their earlier rift as “a little negotiations spat.”
This was after he tongued Trump’s salty nutsack saying how Trump was all in on helping Ukraine during a meeting the day before with UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer that was just factually and contextually way off.
Of course Thiessen has to get his little jab in about the suit…
Even after Zelensky refused a White House request to wear a suit, Trump praised his outfit, saying, “I think he’s dressed beautifully.” Trump extolled the minerals deal they had reached and said, “We look forward to getting in and digging, digging, digging.” He publicly pledged to continue military aid to Ukraine and even held out the possibility that he “could conceivably” commit U.S. troops alongside British and French troops to provide security after a peace deal was reached.
Off course, Thiessen believes that Trump is the ultimate deal broker, and he just wanted to help Ukraine by <checks notes> stealing the mineral resources. Hence the "repetition of the word ‘digging’”. It’s cute that Thiessen really believed that Trump and JD Couchrapist had the best interests of Ukraine in mind.
Puhlease.
There was and is no fucking universe where Trump was going to expend US assets to assure Ukrainian security against his puppet master Putin.
Ok, I am going to admit that I can’t stomach any more of this dreck. Let’s go to the comments. As of this writing there are 8,537 comments. That seems like a lot to me.
I’m sure that they all are cheering on Marc’s incisive
At the top of the ginormous listing of comments, there is a helpful AI summary. Now, by this point you might have noticed I am an AI skeptic. But in this case it is pretty helpful:
Seems spot on. Let’s get to the list. The first three four:
Seems pretty consistent.
Let’s see if we can find any defending Thiessen…
Hmmm, first batch, and no Thiessen love… On to the first “Load More” prompt.
And again,
And again,
Ok, I am done. I finally found one comment that wasn’t vehemently in Marc’s face (look to the bottom):
Gee, Paul Hage said it is nice to see some “balance”. That is as close to agreeing with Thiessen as I can find.
I hereby name Marc Thiessen as “This Fucking Guy” for this just horrid take. He ands his partners on the OpEd pages of the Post, Henry Olsen, Kathleen Parker, and Megan McArdle can go lick the taint of the mango Mussolini, and slobber on the ballsack of Elon Musk, basking in their glory.
Because, you are all scabs on society, the lot of you.
Wow, 4 people have unsubscribed since I sent this...
I’ll admit all I read was the comments flaying him. It’s an injustice that Michael Gerson died of cancer and Thiessen is still walking the earth.
