Four of them weren't "wars," two of them we weren't even involved in settling, and at least one is still actually continuing.

"It's getting incredible reviews"

...from WHO? They haven't even drafted blueprints for the fucking thing, let alone started construction!

All you're showing are mock-ups!

is it me or do the mock-ups look far more yellow than what was originally presented back in July?

Isn't Israel and Turkey currently engaged in a proxy war over Syria?

...all I can think of is the plot of Roujin Z, where an experimental medical bed, designed to accommodate all of the needs of it's elderly occupant and programmed with the personality of said patient's late wife, goes on a rampage to fulfil his wish to see the ocean one last time with her.

Well of COURSE it turned out badly, you were having Megatron fire the rounds!

Amanda Montagne @amandamontagne01.bsky.social · 11h

That's a flogging offense.

Traditional gender roles?

Traditional Gender roles...for when?

You get the feeling that one of the reasons why the ballroom is going to be so absurdly large in comparison to the rest of the White House complex is because Trump feels insecure over the Treasury Department building across the street?

Jesus Christ, what the fuck is that second account.

Nevermind his family has used "charity" to launder money back to the Trump foundation, even if he never saw a single cent from that charity coming back to him, you KNOW he would use it as a tax write off.

Well gee, Mister President, if Democrats are "never getting those priorities back," I don't see a reason why we need to reopen the government.

When one looks at the constant sycophancy and pettiness towards the president's detractors as a whole, it's increasingly obvious that this administration's officials don't exist to interact with the public and inform them on the White House's decisions, so much as to manage Trump's emotions for him.

Now, in most instances, a Press Secretary could easily just lie or come up with a plausible excuse to explain the President's actions.

But Trump is so mercurial and so thinned skin, that Leavitt doesn't want to risk second guessing him, because he could end up thinking it makes him look bad.

While it's tempting to just downplay this and mock Leavitt for acting like a child, I think this constant hostility and deflection from even the most basic questions deserves to be picked apart and analyzed.

And I think it boils down to this: "They have no actual answer."

Or look at James Meredith. Not only did a white mob try to lynch him when he attended Mississippi University in 1962 (never mind the bullshit the Governor tried to pull), but in 1966, when he went on a solo run across three states to encourage black participation in voting, he was shot.

...how is that ironic?

Trump Supporters: If Trump was REALLY a king, why didn't he just shut down the National Mall to keep the protests from happening? Checkmate, Libs!

Also Trump Supporters: We need to go after the people who fund the groups that stage these protests.

Amanda Montagne @amandamontagne01.bsky.social · 2d

Real talk, but is anyone in this administration capable of actually ANSWERING a goddamned question?

Amanda Montagne @amandamontagne01.bsky.social · 2d

I don't know how true that is, because no human alive is as big a slut as Elminster.
