There’s a term for that: nocturnal posturbation.

Well, maybe, but I don’t see them backing away from the grift trough anytime soon.

I doubt they expect anything from him. Every single one of them has their own grifts going. They are all self-centered assholes who only care about themselves and they are personally enriching themselves any way they can. They learned very well from daddy. You can even see it playing out with his granddaughter joining the game. That’s one fucked up family.

You mean “What’s her name?”.

Unless, of course he has someone else in mind.

Trump is currently on the way to China to meet with Xi Jinping. A President who knew what he was doing, and/or cared about his job, would spend the night before that trip preparing for the meeting, going over the issues at hand, or maybe getting a good night’s sleep. Trump, on the other hand, used that time to send out deranged messages about whatever random angry thoughts went through his mind, well into the wee hours.

I’ll bet that Xi, on the other hand, will be well-rested and well-prepared for this meeting.

The BBC podcast _More or Less_, where they look at numbers in the news and debunk false claims, did this one last December. Spoiler alert: RFKjr is full of shit.

More or Less: Is RFK right about US sperm counts?

Episode webpage: [BBC Radio 4 - More or Less, Is RFK right about US sperm counts?](http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0mls4lm)

It’s a fun and smart podcast. I recommend it. This episode is only 9 minutes long (their typical length).

So the republicans are going for one world government?

Young guys aren’t tanning their scrotums and taints nearly enough! Tucker Carlson and RFK Jr make sure to get in plenty of tanning time.

Yep. A dictatorship. Care to guess who the dictator is?

It might not be AI. One of the premium prop money sources offers [custom bills](https://propmoney.com/pages/print-a-bill). I can totally see a sycophant ordering Trump bills.

I am also tempted to print some myself and pass them in Trumplandia. I might even get more than par.

Either way it’s still deranged slop.

Out of curiosity, if that were to happen, how would Trump and his Maga Cult justify closing the border and expelling everyone who doesn’t look like Trump out of the country?

Gosh, I read that remark to the “Love, American Style” theme song.

_Bantustans, American style,_  
_Truer than the red, white, and blue,_  
_Bantustans, American style,_  
_For me, and for youuuu …_

Black comedy. And chilling, when you get right down to it.
