This! It offends me to no end that his portrait will hang with the other Presidents (regardless of how I feel about them) and that he now has a place in the history books (regardless of how he will be remembered).
I was really sad when I realized he was going to end up in Disney’s Hall of Presidents.
I say this in all seriousness: Disney will figure a way out of this.
They have championed gay and trans rights, and are no fans of He Who Must Not Be Animatronic’ed.
His animatronic self is going to be in the dunking booth.
It seems as though every president has at least some admirers. Even trickydick is not universally reviled.
That is anti-free market, because there is profit to be made in almost every segment of terror mania. First and foremost, the media, which in turn shares the wealth incalculably thru keeping the mania alive.
Naw. His animatronic will come out of a panel, terrorizing and chasing the other animatronic presidents, shouting phrases like “Bigly!” and “Yuge!” and “Smash Muslims!” until he’s shot through the head by Teddy.
It’ll be pretty great.
That’s how I read it the first time. I actually cringed until I reread it.
Word is that he’s being added as we speak. Speculation is, and I don’t know if it’s confirmed or not, that they’re removing the part where the current president speaks, cutting the ride from about 22 minutes down to around 15. I also have read that engineers were well into the construction of a Hillary Clinton animatronic when the election happened, because of course that’s the way it was expected to go.
The speaking part apparently only dates back to 1993, so it’s a relatively new thing that probably won’t be missed.
Seen somewhere on the internet: She’s dressing for the job she wants.
I just pray that they don’t go Westworld on us.
While Trump was on the phone with Rodrigo Duterte in April (the call in which he praised Duterte’s handling of the drug problem in the Philippines), Trump revealed that he had sent two nuclear subs to the waters off the Korean peninsula. I’m certainly no military man, but I had always been under the impression that one of the key advantages of the submarine as a weapon is that its location can be kept a secret!

As I understand it, the presence of the sub USS Michigan was publicly known, as it had docked in South Korea, but the presence of the second sub was not. To be fair, this could be another of those instances where Trump skillfully revealed a secret as part of a larger negotiation strategy. With Rodrigo Duterte.
The Catholic Church has not required head coverings in church in 50 years. The news article I read said that they wore head coverings “out of papal respect”. I think they just made that up.
Put it on display with the real presidential robots for a week, then move it to a mini-golf course.
Or his 4D Chess strategy, in which this was the payoff to his earlier claim that the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson was off Korean when it was actually off Australia. Now NK never really knows what ship is where, even when he’s telling the truth.
But Occam would say he’s just an idiot.
It’s like a big stupid game of Battleship.
My daughter sent me this picture, and it confirmed my impression (previously solidified by his Yad Vashem guestbook entry) that the man has no sense of occasion whatsoever. I responded that Francis looks like he needs an industrial-strength laxative or a good stiff drink. Or both.
Which I’m pretty sure he couldn’t muster the focus and concentration to play effectively.
Ivanaka is his favorite because she looks the most like him. Tiffany looks like her mother.
Trump: “You sunk my battleship! You were very unfair to me, very unfair! Sad! But believe me, you won’t hit my aircraft carrier because I’ve got it placed in the best position, on G5 through G9. You’ll never find it there.”
