Such a heavy burden to bear, but not to worry -- Trump has always been good at getting others to do the work and pay his bills.

I am sue Denmark will not sell Greenland does this mean Amerikka goes to war with Denmark?

That might be a war the US could win.

Maybe.

If it was lucky.

Not a chance. Denmark is one of those "European" countries of which most Americans are vaguely aware, but could not find on a map.

"European"???

What's European.

Someone from that large tract of land and islands in the northern hemisphere roughly between Russia and Ireland who relieves themselves in public.

What do you mean 'one of those'? Are you saying that Europe isn't a country and Denmark isn't just a town or state?

The Danes have a much prouder and longer history of fighting and conquest ... even if they chose to learn from it, rather than repeat it.

And we're going to annex Canada, Greenland, the Panama Canal, and, if Musk has his way, Mars. The narcissistic attention whore has a lot of competition these days, so he will strive to be the center of attention with outrageous bloviating bullshit. Anything to get those views and clicks!

That's our President. Get used to it. Again.

How sad it is that so many actually believe that man (?) to be worthy of 'leading' anything, let alone a nation.

I have taught primary school children who have displayed greater understanding, rationality and reason than Trump, also doing it in a civil and respectful manner towards others.

Considering team Harris was just as bad, Trump's statements are still shocking.

Many states really do have trouble keeping up with demands for clean water. In Arizona most of the tap water is undrinkable

As for the gulf of Mexico,

Trump is just as foolish as Kamala.

No one can understand ether of them.

Trump probably thinks the Gulf of California belongs to the USA.

So our choice was a brown skinned jew lover, or a fat,white jew lover.

Both suck.

Darkstar's avatar

What part is not valid, Roger ?

Trump's funders want to expand the USA to twice its size.

And since he thinks he can just rename an international waterway to suit him, where do you find fault in my statement?

Trump oughta' rename the planet Mars "Marmerica' and then he and Elon can fly there and make "Mars A-Lago", the first outer space resort for wealthy losers, sociopathic suck-ups and fascist freeloaders.

MMGA ... Make Mars Great Again!!!!

"Trump is just as foolish as Kamala.

Not officially, but he is.

He's at least as Officially Presidential as Biden is now. And yes possibly, for the last 4 years.

I think Trumps (perceived) power has gone straight to his head. He either has a God complex or plans to crown himself King and Don Junior as the Prince of Greenland.

Thankfully Canada doesn't give tourist visas to convicted felons, Trudeau's gun buy-back scheme was a total failure,and 85 percent of our population still lives along the "invisible" border. Does 1812 ring any bells?

Oh, dear lord... I'd forgotten the "joy" of a Trump presidency, but this just brought it all back in a rush. I think I'm going to be sick now. Ugh.

I'll do occasional 'Presser Pustules' during Trump2.0-in-flames, so if you see some good ones, pass 'em my way. Can't lose our sense of humor and the knack of mocking such blowhards.

Humor definitely helps in these trying times. It's Trump's one saving grace--he's the world's biggest clown and definitely looks the part.

(I finally got around to doing a mini-"book report" on JFK and the Unspeakable on this week's post. Thanks again for the book suggestion.)

He’s always gonna do “stuff”, and “things you’ve never seen before”, and these things are always “the greatest you’ve ever seen, never been seen before, amazing things”,

and more “stuff”. He never says anything concrete and nothing makes any sense at all. He’s a parody of himself now. I can’t believe the way people worship at his feet like brainwashed goons.
