The funny part is that a Red LightSaber was only used by Evil Sith characters....

Bald eagles famously don't like Trump

Unlike most U.S. presidents, Donald Trump has never had a pet while in the White House. He was the first president in over a century to not have a pet during his presidency. All other presidents have had pet, often seen as a symbol of relatability and warmth.

Trump has occasionally commented that he didn’t have time for a pet or didn’t see the need for one, even saying he thought having a dog might seem "phony" for him.

And to add to the previous post of Trump stupidity:

 

Trump orders a 100% tariff on foreign movies

 

Gotta love this statement:

 

“Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated,” Trump wrote. “This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda!” 

 

So Hollywood is going overseas to make these movies because they can and are made cheaper and better, therefore it is Hollywood that is the "National Security threat."!!

 

Next he will go after Hollywood because they are making anti-American/Trump fake news material, instead of American/Trump truth social propaganda material.

 

Remember the McCarthyism era of movies

Any trace of actual warmth, affection, or any sign of any other positive aspect of humanity might seem phony for Trump? Yeah, that checks out.

Good grief!

 



 

Reuters - Trump posts AI-generated photo of himself as pope

 

I wish he looked more like Pope Francis. Dead.

 

I and others like your posts, but I cant go that far, sorry.

 

I prefer ashamed and ridiculed. Which is happening day on day although he doesnt see that. Yet.

 

 

You're right, my comment was over the top and I meant to go back and change it. Sorry.

 

But I still think the world would be a better place if Donald Trump had never been in it.





Trump crowned? No faux King way!

Making such „funny witty“ White House jokes, but demanding respect from smarter people ... I won't stoop to that level ... down.

Now, this article from Al-Jazeera news, I can get my head around.

 

No, Trump is not a fascist. He is a hypercapitalist and just as dangerous

Obviously fake and/or AI generated, but still pretty witty (and reflective of how a lot of people are feeling right now!):

It is obviously becoming more and more necessary for the EU states to ‘distance’ themselves from the USA - but if that is what ‘friends’ want, why not? A lot of porcelain is being smashed.

 

We already have a lot on board for this, it just needs to be consolidated and coordinated at the moment. Tomorrow, the new German government will take office.

https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/559926/trump-says-i-don-t-know-if-must-uphold-us-constitution-as-president

 

When NBC's Meet the Press moderator Kristen Welker asked if people in the United States - citizens and non-citizens alike - deserve the due process of law, as the US Constitution states, Trump said: "I'm not a lawyer. I don't know."
Pressed more generally on whether he believes he needs to uphold the supreme law of the land, Trump repeated: "I don't know."

 

(this is despite the orange buffoon swearing that he pledged to honour the Constitution as little as three months ago 🙄)

Oh well, at lease he didn't answer "I can't recall" like most of the Republicans say when confronted.

When you were arrested during a police sting at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport for sexually solicitation, did you say it was purely personal conduct unrelated to the performance of official Senate duties, and use your campaign money to help mount a legal defense?"

"I can't recall"
