We the people didn’t dream that dream; a kid named Moe Greene did. And there isn’t even a plaque, or a signpost or a statue of him in that town!
More satire from the Doug* administration: the WH transcript of the SD speech includes applause, boos and chants of USA!USA!USA! from the audience.
*Doug Pirhana – he used sarcasm
It would be hilarious if the family was all kissing his ass because they think he’s really a billionaire and then when he dies the administrator of the estate has to tell them it was all a house of cards
I have been praying for that for years now and I’m an atheist.
Russia : “Now we come for you and, and your… Chevy”.
Trump uses Neil Young’s Rockin’ in the Free World at Mt. Rushmore, Neil files cease and desist. I guess Trump didn’t hear these lyrics
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
That man of the people would be Jesse Jackson. It’s like Reagan using Springsteen’s Born in the USA, hardly a blindly patriotic song. And Sara Palin with Heart’s Barracuda, which has this line - If the real thing don’t do the trick, you better make up something quick.
Trump also used Tom Petty’s Don’t Back Down a few weeks ago, his estate filed cease and desist.
I can understand the statues of Davey Crocket and Daniel Boone, but where are the statues for Bat Masterson and Judge Roy Bean and The Rifleman?
The German lady is more manly than the Girly Man we have as president.
Merkel is more man than Trump will ever be, and more woman than he’ll ever get.
And what about Clyde Barrow? He had great influence on the banking industry.
That’s what I said!
edit - still figurring out this newfangled board, I thoght I quoted you.
Every instance of their communication must have been for her like talking to a child. And from the few reported examples I know that she indeed talked to him like to a child, patiently and calm, but nothing ever stuck. The intellectual gap between Angela Merkel and Trump definitely is staggering.
ETA: that’s why Germany rather looks well in the Covid-19 crisis. Heck, our chancellor is a scientist and knows how to interpret numbers. She even knows what exponential growth means!
I’ve never been the flag-waiving “USA! USA!” type, but I’ve always had at least a little bit of pride in my country. I never thought I’d admire other countries’ leaders more than my own, but I realize that it’s a matter of survival: if you love democracy and good things in this world, I don’t give a fuck if you’re American. If you’re American, you realize that the defenders of democracy ain’t us; it’s Canada. It’s Germany. It’s France (probably). It’s New Zealand. It’s South Korea - yes, South Korea. And Taiwan. They are defending democracy more than we are.
After it was reported that George and Kellyanne Conway’s 15 year old daughter has been on Tik Tok bashing, Individual 1, George went on Twitter and said, that journalists must contact him and Kellyanne, nor their minor daughter. The daughter replied, "you’re just mad that i’m finally getting my voice heard, sorry your marriage failed.”
Kellyanne then took her phone away while she was live streaming on Tik Tok.
Her accounts have since been locked.
that TikTok video is priceless
They should make all the statues like this.
Good question, and it should be asked of Trump.
He will promptly order that statues of Batman and Mr. Bean be erected in the garden also.
In his 4th of July speech, Trump said Desert Storm took place in the jungles of Vietnam:
“In the fields and jungles of Vietnam, they delivered a swift and swiffian, It was swift and it was sweeping like nobody’s ever seen happen. A victory in Operation Desert Storm, a lot of you were involved in that. A lot of you were involved. That was a quick one.”
Wait, we attacked the North Vietnamese with Swiffers? No wonder we lost that one.
I’m picturing the scene in Knives Out:
When the reading of the will is done Walt stands and says “Uh, no!” and the family goes bonkers.
Perhaps the troops where racking the forest floor with them. That ain’t gonna work at all.
