In formations that spell out “Happy Fourth of July, 2026, 250 years of this great country, from all your good friends not the MAGA right those losers and dummies. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS PATTERN!” Or something…

We can add electric planes too. Paint 'em greener!

Trump said in a post on Truth Social that he was aware of artists getting “the yips” about their performances, and he is thinking about instead appearing himself at a new rally at same time and location.

“I am ordering my Representatives to look at the feasibility of doing an AMERICA IS BACK Rally on Wednesday, Washington, D.C., same time, same location. Only Great Patriots invited,” he wrote, calling himself "the “Number One Attraction anywhere in the World”.

The yips? And America is Back at the same time it’s going to lose/capitulate in a needless war he started. Perfect.

Can’t the Dumocrats stage something in front of the Capitol? All the yipsters can warm up for, I dunno, Neil Young and make it so loud it drowns out the millions trump will claim saw his clown act?

Undoubtedly not without a permit from the U.S. Capitol Police, which might well not be granted given the current political environment. AIUI, the Capitol Police is under the purview of Congress, which is currently controlled by the GOP, of course.

Trump has, predictably, decided on the perfect replacement for people who were planning on enjoying '90s nostalgia acts at a tacky state fair - himself.

Trump has apparently wrestled his phone away from whoever usually tweets for him, because he’s back to slop-posting and attacking the Pope.

He also posted a picture of himself golfing where, if you zoom in, he appears to not know where he is.

I don’t think that’s a recent pic of Orangeboy golfing because, no orange. (And no gut or diaper.)

So a drone runway (not a port) on top of the Ballroom. Somehow, that seems appropriate for this moron. And just who is he going to attack? Oh, never mind.

Everyone of his teachers, if any are alive, should hang their heads in shame.

If you are talking about his college professors, none of them probably ever met him or even laid eyes on him.

And (I know it’s AI slop but…) they’re going to store a bunch of high explosives _directly above_ the room the President and cabinet and etc. will be sitting in during publicly announced events? That seems to me like a rejected premise for a Tom Clancy novel.

> 
> It’s rare for a professor to disparage the intelligence of a student, but according to attorney Frank DiPrima, who was close friends with professor William T. Kelley for 47 years, the prof made an exception for Donald Trump, at least in private. “He must have told me that 100 times over the course of 30 years,” says DiPrima, who has been practicing law since 1963 and has served as in-house counsel for entities including the Federal Trade Commission and Playboy Enterprises. “I remember the inflection of his voice when he said it: ‘Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had!’” He would say that [Trump] came to Wharton thinking he already knew everything, that he was arrogant and he wasn’t there to learn.” Kelley, who passed away in 2011 at age 94, taught marketing at Wharton for 31 years, retiring in 1982.
