Trump's Second Term

I suppose you could argue that the Biden Whitehouse was a little austere, but Trump has overcompensated by several orders of magnitude.

The difference in the colour temperature of the photos makes Biden's look a bit bleak, but if you rebalanced it it would look warmer. The thing is that marble looks good, it's classic, it doesn't need to be covered in fake, or certainly fake looking gewgaws or the mantlepiece covered in tacky trophies. For better or worse the POTUS is the most powerful position in the world, it takes a really ◊◊◊◊◊◊ up combination of ego and inferiority complex to create such a pathological urge to make petty and tacky displays of what a psychologically weak man thinks power looks like. Biden didn't have the ornimentation because Biden didn't need it, Trump has it because he needs constant reinforcement.

life as the bag holder for a bunch of crooks: now 401k is able to invest in private equity. hope you weren’t too attached to your retirement

RFK jr is working hard to make sure millions of Americans will never have to worry about their retirement.
 
I was going to paste that he had 'the sense of taste of a ...' but I couldn't think of anyone or anything tasteless enough. An eight year old would tell you her Disney Princess Doll found it too tacky.
It's like when you let the kids decorate the Christmas tree from that giant box of previous years decorations and you foolishly imagine they'll decide at some point enough is enough.

It used to be something you would laugh at when you saw it in videos and photos of Putin at his golden encrusted palaces.
 
Hmmm, Cohen has been strangely silent about the current Epstein goings on. Maybe he has to be?
 
I really wish people would stop using "pet" names for people. It took me a while to figure out that BiBi is Benjamin Netanyahu. There's only one "i" in his relatively long name, and it's near the end of the first word.

That goes for Trump, too. His name is Donald Trump, not Drumpf or the Orange Baboon or any one of a bunch of other insulting names people have for him.

I'm already suppressing posts from one member because I had too much trouble figuring out who he was referring to.
I try not to use too many acronyms. But sometimes late at night when I'm tired I might use something like Bibi instead of Netanyahu He is very commonly called Bibi. I'm surprised anyone isn't aware of the name, Bibi. Sorry.
 
Unilateral trade deals.

BARTIROMO: How many more deals on trade would you expect in the coming month?

NAVARRO: We've got a bunch of deals right now, but a lot of them are unilateral because we had to send letters to people ... trust in Trump

A basic problem with these people seems to be their willingness to twist simple English into new and senseless shapes- if it's unilateral, it's not a "deal," it's dictation.

We all know the (Turkish) saying that "When you put a clown into a Palace he does not become a King, the Palace becomes a circus". Well, it's now been proven that if you put a man who pays pornstars for sex into the White House, the White House does in fact become a bordello.
 
He will wear golden suit before his term is over. Maybe summer.
Honestly, I don't know if he'll live that long, or for that matter stay in office that long. He can barely stay awake for his appearances already. Maybe between his ailing health and the Epstein drama, his handlers will decide he's outlived his usefulness. I've all but given up on hoping for such things given he's a cult leader, but you never know.
