The public loves ICE’s large hard muscles! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Helping with bags? Cleaning?

The TSA must have really been slacking, because I never saw them do these things.

Trump’s babysitters are literally showing him a two-minute montage of explosions every morning to convince him the Iran war is a success.

“Maligned”?" “Unwittingly?”

Yeah, sure, Donnie wrote this…like hell.

Every part of that must ring eerily familiar to Melania.

That reference to the “larger and harder muscles” of the “ICE patriots” doesn’t sound like him. Instead, it reminds me of Pete Hegseth, so was he the source of that quote?

Real or Onion? It’s so hard to tell the difference these days. Is Melania grifting with humanoid robots now? This is real.

Let me summarize: the chairs are gilded. The glasses are empty and covered with paper. The robot walks with more grace than Melania. The names are written in Comic Sans. In colors! Be Best is still a thing! 🤣 The microphone is not working properly. She cannot read fluently.  
And I watched the whole 2’58".

Y’know, given the basic rules of grammar, the fact that the last group mentioned before the “great American patriots” bit was the Democrats, it sounds like he’s calling _them_ patriots, and not the forces patrolling the airport.

I should know better than to point that out, but I chuckled when I read his post.

Sometimes I wonder what’s it like inside Trump’s head, I imagine there is no coherent train of thought, just a kind of reaction machine that goes through the motions of behaviour learned when there was actually some trace of intelligence there, but now just responds to stimuli, just that.

That’ll be v3.

Very true. v2 would’ve been during Trump’s stolen election cycle. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

> Named for George H. W. Bush, who I respect far more than his son, George W. Bush. I think because of the existing airport named for the father, there will be no push to name one after the son.

And, after this latest round of renovation/updates, it’s actually a rather nice airport.

The father lived in the swankiest neighborhood in Houston, which is partly why the naming. If any of the big Texas cities names something for W, it’ll be Dallas. But that seems a bit unlikely.

The actual robot displays some empathy.
