Environmentalists want us to clean our air but they refuse to acknowledge that China’s dirty air comes over here and gets our air all dirty again. Why bother? > ---

That can’t be true. There’s no way the felon can say _amorphous_. ---

Amorphous surprised me too, but the whole part is hilarious. You must admire the diplomats in the room for being able to not laugh out loud. His stupidity is fascinating. Like, I guess, a landslide coming at you would be fascinating. “And the envymentalists (see? He _can_ say long words!) have refused to acknowledge that.” ---

> [@Pardel-Lux](#): > > Amorphous surprised me too, but the whole part is hilarious. You must admire the diplomats in the room for being able to not laugh out loud. I’m picturing a Doonesbury cartoon. All four panels show an exterior of the UN building: Panel 1: [Trump blathering on what he blathered about today.] Panel 2: “The General Assembly is now adjourned for the day.” Panel 3: Unnamed diplomat: “Yeah, I know, but let’s wait 'til we get back to our offices.” Panel 4: “Bwa-ha-ha-haaaaa! What a buffoon!” ---

> [@Pardel-Lux](#): > > You must admire the diplomats in the room for being able to not laugh out loud. Admire? 😡 Not a bit. I call them cowards for refusing to laugh out loud at Trump’s insanity. They don’t owe him any respect or consideration! The man’s a lunatic, and they are wimps for not responding to him in the way you respond to lunatics! This is not the time for a good manners and decorum. ---

The diplomats are not there to express their feelings or to combat Trump’s fascism speed run, they are there to get what they can for their countries without offending the 800 pound gorilla on meth, they did their jobs. ---

I’ve always noticed that the only time MAGAs can imagine the impact of a porous border is if it’s the Southern geographic border. They can’t wrap their heads around the same concept when it comes to a loose and weak patchwork of state and local firearm legislation – far more akin to a “no peeing” section of a public swimming pool. ---

Someone posted a clip the other day, but I don’t know in which thread, and I can’t find it in a search (here or with Google). It shows Trump saying he’d ended six wars, then seven wars. A German comedian says (in German) ‘Eleven!’ He may have followed that up with ‘Fifty!’ but I’m not sure/ Does anyone know the clip I mean? ---

Compulsive liars like to exaggerate a little bit, then immediately jump to exaggerating a lot, then believe those exaggerations as fact. It gets wildly weird after that is embedded in their brains. ---
