Trump's Second Term

[Regnad Kcin]

Pressure seems to be getting to him.

THE FAKE POLLS USED BY OUR CROOKED MEDIA ARE OUT OF CONTROL, AND SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT IT. FCC TO THE RESCUE! President DJT

Sorry, DJT-hee, I can’t hear you over the sound of your golf scorecards.

 

[kookbreaker]

I'm sure they all are clamoring to move to the US, what with being so welcoming and all.

Let all Canadian Companies that are doing business with America move to the United States, immediately. Many of them are Companies that moved out years ago due to stupid U.S. Leadership. When you move back, there are no TARIFFS! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Yeah, I'm sure aluminum suppliers can just pick up and move, right? They basically just form it from thin air, yes?

Sorry, DJT-hee, I can’t hear you over the sound of your golf scorecards.

On mail-in ballots: “North Carolina is great. I won at golf three times."

On mail-in ballots: “North Carolina is great. I I cheated and won at golf three times."

FTFY

Apparently his own US Attorney needs to go back to law school.

Look what VANDALS did to the grass connecting the vandalized World War II Monument and the vandalized Reflecting Pool, which will be opened again, and better than ever, shortly. Anybody who thinks the Reflecting Pool wasn’t vandalized should go back to Law School! The grass is being replaced shortly, and the Reflecting Pool is almost completely fixed, including the various inflow and outflow pipes, which we were saving for the end of the year, but will do now. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Sure it wasn't Visigoths, Donny?

And it has taken nearly two months to "shortly" replace some grass (baseball grounds do this overnight routinely), and "almost fix" the Reflecting Pool although not counting piping. So you are breathlessly announcing...no result yet. The USA must be SO proud of you...

I wonder if this is a consequence of Trump wanting to rename Canada Geese as American Geese, then being told he can't do that by EO.

Now you’ve triggered my pet peeve again!

If Canada Goose, Branta canadensis, is correct, then the new name would have to be America Goose, Branta trumpisdensis (the Latin works well if you channel your inner Yoda).

 

[PitPat]

We have a ton of Canada geese around these parts. Every time they're around I'll take a gander.

Stop that.

 

[The Atheist]

I'm constantly reminded of an old Soviet joke when I open a news site and see the first article.

A peasant went to the newsagent every morning, bought a newspaper, looked at the front page and threw it in the bin.
One day, the seller asked why he did that.
He replied that he was looking for a bereavement notice.
The seller told him bereavements were at the back.
The man replied "His will be on front page."

 

[PitPat]

Stop that.

Sorry, didn't mean to get your gander up.

 

[Mojo]

He does look like a man born to wear a rhinestone jumpsuit.. 7XL short leg.. and die on the toilet.

Of course he'll die on the toilet. Anywhere he happens to be sitting is the toilet.

 

[P.J. Denyer]

Good point well made.

Donald is lying about using Venezuelan crude oil to refill the strategic reserve

The reserve has strict quality requirements such as a maximum of 1.99% sulfur content. Venezuelan oil is 5.7% sulfur, it is also highly acidic and would eat away at the storage cave walls, likely causing cave-ins and collapse.

There are other requirements, too, such as API gravity. Venezuelan oil doesn't qualify. If you pour it in, you can never get it back out, it's too sludgy. It would basically just become a giant "tar cave" of unpumpable sludge.

I'm sorry but you lost Trump's attention the moment you went past the "crude oil" bit.

The question is whether he and the sycophantic morons he appoints understand the requirements and ramifications, or that they care about anything beyond short term bragging rights to hold on to power as long as possible.

Iran is officially a Failed Nation. IT IS DEAD!
They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, they have no currency, they are not paying their soldiers or police, Inflation is at 300%, and their leadership is in total disarray and incapable of properly representing the country.
The only thing they have is FAKE NEWS from the USA, a willingness to kill their protesters (now over 100,000 people dead. They must be tried for war crimes against humanity!), and a good line of “◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊.”
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

...is this still about oil, or did you switch to metaphor about this administration?
