LOL! Ironic that this MAGA-loving moron blames "snowflakes" for his Trump-themed restaurant failing. Tried looking in the mirror? A little retrospection can go a long, long way 😀

 

Thoughts and prayers, stone the flamin' crows, etc etc.

But you do realise that US government superlatives no longer impress anyone except a more and more decreasing number of MAGAmericans. Donnyboy, your tiring showmanship will soon have to be intensified or at least delivered so that someone will pay attention. 😎

Trump Café at the end of the universe.

 

Self flagellation runs deep with MAGA, proof of being true MAGA.

 

Thing is you can't be loyal to Trump and hold him as your leader and be loyal to your own country.

 

Trump is 'America First', 'America Only' , your country is only there to enrich 'America'
(Ok Trump thinks he owns America, so 'Enrich Him' )
Trump would make you a Banana Republic, which America can draw off wealth and resources.

 

Trump basically said that in front of the Canadian Prime Minister.
You will have nothing of value and you will pay to buy from our exclusive store.
( A Trump version of COSCO where prices are high all day every day ? )

 

So you fly your Trump flag as you want to live in a true Banana Republic ?
Similarly for those here flying the flag.

Extreme Corruption Alert!

 

The NY Times - Trump to Accept a Luxury 747 From Qatar for Use as Air Force One  (free unlocked link)

 

breaking

 


The plan, confirmed by a senior official, would amount to possibly the biggest foreign gift ever received by the U.S. government. 

 

The gift raises substantial ethical issues, given the immense value of the plane and the fact that President Trump plans to use it after he leaves office.

 

 

Estimated cost US $400 million.  An egomaniac's dream come true!  😏

Apparently it was Trump who made the assumption he could use it as Air Force One. He doesn't know it's only a radio-controlled model about two meters long.

American mechanic mentioned tariffs affecting car parts, even on classic American cars'

Trump really pissed off the once-friendly neighbors.

YouTube, jump to tariffs discussion

Interesting reading all the breathless news about the US-China trade deal. In fact China tariffs have dropped to "only" 30% (and Chinese tariffs on US imports to 10%) which is certainly a lot lower than 145% but actually represents a massive increase on what it was before numbnuts started his trade war, and the 10% global base rate remains. It's not over by any means, but Trump can now tout himself as the winner who made a deal with China, so as far as he's concerned he got what he wanted.

Nice to see Apple an All-American company not intimidated by the anti-diversity environment Trump's team is trying to establish. New wallpaper in today's update and new watchband available for purchase:

It looks like Google caved some time ago. I wish consumer me had known this before buying another Pixel.

The New Zealand Herald states the obvious just for the record:

Anthony Fauci not charged with negligent homicide in New Zealand

I should not be surprised all that nonsense is still going on but I am.

The irony (hypocrisy?) coming from the orange buffoon here is, well, not surprising, really.
