Who exactly is running this country. (we know who is ruining it).
Trump sleeps, puts his names on things, insults people, obsesses on ballrooms and the triumphant arch, and plays golf.
Who is running the country??? Steven Miller???

Perhaps Donald Trump should sign an executive order declaring June 14 (his birthday) to be National Racial Animus Day.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.
They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Yeah... making shit up is a shitty thing to do. And MAGA does it ALL THE TIME!

I hate these people... These immigrants go through EXTREME VETTING before being allowed into this country. They come expecting to be living in the best country in the world. Sadly we can no longer claim to be the best. On the contrary. We are a mess.

OMG, further Proof of Trump’s Big Lie and proof Trump is Inciting Violence. Recently he stated that the six Members of Congress that reminded Our Proud Military, that their Oath states it is OK to not follow an Illegal Order, enraged Trump, who said All Six should be Killed. No military, NO COUP👊⚖️🇺🇸😎

This is well said. Trump is exhausting like any two year old.

What's with his latest thing about God being happy with him? Who exactly is running this White House?
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”
In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

It's so hard to deal with an idiot who has no shame...
I give it six months before he’s donning a military uniform and giving four-hour speeches from balconies.
"The Donald Trump administration has changed which holidays qualify for free entrance to national parks, removing two holidays celebrating Black people and adding the president’s birthday."

no surprises here. A rapist allowing rape
It's hard to explain to normies how much effort Trump is putting into anti-trans policies.
This is like the 12th thing just this week. And there were 12 things the week before, and 12 things the week before that. There will be 12 things next week.
This is almost everything the government is doing.

BREAKING: Trump administration plans to end prison rape protections for trans & intersex people, memo says. A DOJ memo says certain standards under the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) do not align with Trump’s Jan. 20 anti-trans executive order, @byadamrhodes.bsky.social reports.

A fair trade off: extreme weather, species extinction, loss of habitable land, and more disease in exchange for bringing back the Woody. Hooray.
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

Rand Paul: "Secretary Hegseth said he had no knowledge of this and it did not happen. It was fake news. It didn't happen. And then the next day, from the podium of the WH, they're saying it did happen. So either he was lying to us on Sunday or he's incompetent and didn't know what had happened."

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.

Interesting. I don't recall the Democrats demanding any of these things. This Nazi is doing that thing where they add or take away a word or two to change the meaning. Gotta keep the MAGA cult happy.

While Cabinet members praise his energy and fitness, Trump sleeps.
No satire in the history of film and television has ever been this on the mark.
