"Catturd" is trending on Twitter because the President of the United States is retweeting someone who calls himself Catturd.

There are at least 2 other Catturd retweets in Trump's Twitter feed. I do see that there's a way to claim that this is a deviously clever move.... It does cause his antagonists to retweet his retweeting... It's the first thing I found bloggable this morning, and I've passed on about 50 things at this point.

It’s Biden’s cat.

It's undignified for The President to retweet someone who identifies as a cat turd.

I'd set my hair on fire if I had any.

Otoh, maybe he's got patterico coming around. So there is that. Who's next, kieth Olbermann

Catturday?

tim maguire said...

What’s the two ways you can’t have it? You can’t dismiss the evidence AND say there’s no evidence? That sounds like one way. Giuliani has made too many sloppy mistakes to be used as an authority—most recently in PA taking vote numbers from a web page and presenting them as official.

Iman said...

Batshit-crazy Patterico with catturd on his mind. Sounds about right.

rehajm said...

Presently Catturd is a more informative source than any cable or print mainstream media. Let that sink in.

rehajm said...

I remember long ago when it was hip for Presidents to use the lingo and the trendy stuff the youngsters are using- no malarkey!

Iman said...

Ride that Gascon wave, Patterico. Enjoy!

Catturd ™ has 462,000 followers and is hysterical, but informative

I ve been following Catturd for a while. Funny; clever, and generally spot on

Patterico’s swamp was disturbed, kind of like Shrek. He gets a binder for people like Comey and McCabe and Brennan. His peeps.

wendybar said...

Catturd is one of the brightest, funniest, and informed tweeters....Surprised you haven't read him before. I'm not even on twitter, and I have read numerous tweets of theirs!! Of course the activists on the left are cowering and shaking in disbelief...but that's because they know he is right.

Tom T. said...

The Trump years really revealed Patterico to be a huge snob.

Bob Boyd said...

The Mean Girls are so predictable.

Birkel said...

Patterico is not the real name of the person tweeting. Right?
What's the beef over a name?

The people saying there is no evidence have not rejected the evidence.
They have repeated the assertions of those who claimed - without evaluation - that there is no evidence.
Most of them are lemmings.

I am a fan

Of Catturd®️

Patterico is another SP to be mocked shunned and destroyed

~ Gordon Pasha said...

Is Patterico still a thing? He’s blocked everyone who has ever disagreed with him.

Qwinn said...

There are only two classes of non-leftists I know doubting that voter fraud took place.

1. Those that were NeverTrumpers to begin with.

2. Those I call NeverTrumpSupporters. Even if they preferred Trump to Biden, they still have infinite contempt for Trump supporters. They hold that Trump himself is preferable to Biden strictly from a policy perspective, but Trump's supporters are all moronic scum worshiping him as a cult, and they're just the flipside of Biden's moronic leftist supporters. These people's self regard depends on considering themselves to be "better than both sides", and can be counted on only to never actually choose a side. Example: J. Farmer.

PDT has a sense of humor. What's your point?

Leland said...

He’s blocked everyone who has ever disagreed with him.

And that's a large and increasing number of people.

Mary Beth said...

I follow one of those two on Twitter for humorous and informative tweets. The other I quit reading in 2016.

Hes an assistant la prosecutor who was attacked by a predecessor of the thousand currents scammer. So he targets the only force that might protect him in the future.

An anarchist terrorist named brett kimberlin, who walked out of prison with a phony story about selling quayle drugs he set himself as a vote fraud activist with money from streissand and other marks

Joe Smith said...

A lot of really smart people on Twitter have stupid handles...

Books, covers.

Some assembly required.

Dr Weevil said...

Patterico banned me when I hadn't even contradicted him or anyone else on his site. My comments just stopped appearing. I think he must have banned me for comments made here or on Ace of Spades, none of which were about him, by the way.

Iman said...

He’s the Ian Faith of bloggers. Here’s a taste of the man’s brilliance...

Howard is talking over my head again. SP ="Simple Person?"

I know Patrick personally. We attended Cathy Seipp's funeral together.

Oh yes, he has banned me after I disagreed with something. That made me a "liar." He has admitted that 85% of his readers have left. His original thing was explaining LA Times fake news but he is about as far as Drudge from what got people paying attention to him.

narciso said...

he banned shipwrecked crew the fmr prosecutor that he showed he was over his ski's, he trawled trash about hope hicks and niki haley from michael woolf, which he's never apologized for,

the surprise is not him, but his hangerons like drj, who I thought was sane, but a whole host of sensible folk, left him, you have pengun, there are a host of nazguls over here,

Iman said...

I’ve always been a “policies over personality” supporter/voter. Trump, for all his faults, exposed people for what they truly are. In Patterico’s case, he’s the kind of shitheel who will call the opinion of others lies, vilify and ban those he disagrees with, champion Vox, Haberman, Rupar, Bill Kristol, Goldberg, ADAM SCHIFF, etc.

He will then faithfully post a religious piece of classical music just after midnight Sunday and write about love for his fellow man and how he must work on improving his heart, soul, and demeanor. Enough to make one retch.

About 12 to 15 commenters are all that remain.

Michael K said...

but his hangerons like drj, who I thought was sane,

I did, too. She was threatened one time, back when I read the blog and almost quit commenting. Now she is sort of a co-blogger. She used to comment on my blog, too, but got quite hostile when he did.

Jupiter said...

Where did you dredge up Patterico? He was a good read for a while, but went off the rails pretty comprehensively when Trump was elected.

There seems to be an internet archetype, the Heart Of Darkness blogger who first becomes angry with an annoying commenter or two, and bans them, then slowly declines into a moat-encrusted solitude in which every dissenting voice must be -- and can be! -- suppressed. Obviously, Althouse has avoided this trap, perhaps because she is as interested in learning about other people's ideas as in expressing her own. Does anyone know, does this happen on the Left, or only on the Right? There are no Lefty bloggers in my echo chamber.

Greg The Class Traitor said...

Someone who calls himself "Patterico" (little Pat, IIRC) really doesn't get to throw shade other people for their stupid names, either.

He's another formerly sane individual who let TDS destroy his mind

rcocean said...

The Democrats committed massive vote Fraud, depriving Trump of a sure and legal win, and Althouse doesn't find that "bloggable".

Its people like her than enable the Democrat liars and their disgusting, illegal behavior. but somehow Patterico, a grifter and Fake Con, is somehow "Blogggable". LOL!

Birches said...

These blue checks won't take someone seriously because their handle is Catturd, but they still take Jen Rubin seriously so I'm not sure I'm going to trust their judgement on this.

Narayanan said...

What is the difference between
Voter fraud
Vote fraud
Fraud on voters

Looking like nobody is using clear terms!?

Michelle Dulak Thomson said...

Dr. Weevil, if Patterico banned you w/o any sort of direct provocation, he's round the bend. The accepted way of doing this is to provide notice and wait for the grovel, and then ban you.
