Everyone here in COTR-land knows we Chicks LOVE dogs. Every single one of us. They’re one of the greatest creatures God created, if you ask me. I currently have three– one Victorian bulldog and two English bulldogs. I’m slightly obsessed with them.
This is my girl Sophia. We wear robes together while I work.
Yes. I am that person who bought her dog a robe, and believe it or not, she LOVES it. She’d wear it all day if I allowed it.
So dogs. Dogs are life. Apparently, MSM agrees, because I’ve been seeing a TON of articles about how President Trump is a complete alien for using “dog” as an insult. That’s right. This isn’t just about him not having a dog. This is about him using the word “dog” in a negative way. FOR REAL.
Get a load of this excerpt.
This became clear during a particularly frothy late-night tweet storm, in which President Trump, in a pretzel-twist of rage over the perfidy of Mr. Wolff and the president’s former adviser and campaign strategist Steve Bannon, wrote: “Michael Wolff is a total loser who made up stories in order to sell this really boring and untruthful book. He used Sloppy Steve Bannon, who cried when he got fired and begged for his job. Now Sloppy Steve has been dumped like a dog by almost everyone. Too bad!”
There is a lot going on in this tweet. But it was one pungent phrase — “dumped like a dog” — that stuck in Dog World’s craw like a sideways Snausage. “What does being ‘dumped like a dog’ entail, precisely? Asking for a concerned friend (or friends, actually),” tweeted the Newsweek senior political writer Celeste Katz, posting her query above a shot of her dachshunds. The popular account @weratedogs summed it up by asking, simply: “do you … do you know what a dog is?”
This is not the first time Mr. Trump has employed canine similes to describe an especially odious opponent, an enemy who has been not just vanquished but humiliated to the point that his very humanity is in doubt.
“This is not the first time Mr. Trump has employed canine similes to describe an especially odious opponent.” I can hardly take this reporting seriously.
CNN even devoted a segment to this very important news.

Here are some examples of Trump using “dog” in a derogatory manner, since this is a very important issue.
.@EWErickson got fired like a dog from RedState
and now he is the one leading opposition against me.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2016
.@GlennBeck got fired like a dog by #Fox. The Blaze is failing and he wanted to have me on his show. I said no – because he is irrelevant.

Mitt Romney had his chance to beat a failed president but he choked like a dog. Now he calls me racist-but I am least racist person there is

Union Leader refuses to comment as to why they were kicked out of the ABC News debate like a dog. For starters, try getting a new publisher!

Egypt is a total mess. We should have backed Mubarak instead of dropping him like a dog.

I hear that sleepy eyes @chucktodd will be fired like a dog from ratings starved Meet The Press? I can’t imagine what is taking so long!

Robert Pattinson should not take back Kristen Stewart. She cheated on him like a dog & will do it again–just watch. He can do much better!

I can’t stop marveling over that tweet. Our president. He said that. I can’t.
Obviously, this whole “hating on dogs” thing is an impeachable offense. Get on that Maxine!
OMG hurry Another Reason to Impeach Trump 😆

About dogs? Holy Cow! The Lame Steam Media has really lost their grip on reality. Who give a crap about the President having a damn dog or not. That is not we hired him for. He is doing exactly what he was hired for and that is #MAGA.

Oh FFS, I love dogs but I’m not sure I’d have one if I were potus. You’re busy all day, travelling and campaigning all over the place. It would end up being the WH staff’s dog more than mine.

I mean, I would have a dog, but Trump doesn’t really strike me as a dog kind of guy anyway. I don’t even think he’s a cat person. He’s too busy for any pet. Plus, he could just pet his iconic hair. You know. If he really wanted to.
saw this at the gym without sound and couldn’t stop laughing

If we don’t laugh, we’ll cry.
