The Trump Administration: The Clusterfuck Continues (Part 2)

Hell, he lies in his grave, out of his grave, and anywhere else he happens to be!

:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

There are times I have to remind myself that however flawed other administrations have been, none behaved like mean middle schoolers. We live in weird, awful times.

I like to point out that they called the sport “Golf” because “Mierda” was already taken.

How many ways can the Trump phone fail to succeed?

At first I was surprised that they were doing the due diligence of informing customers and investigating it. rather than just sweeping it under the carpet.

Then I read…

An Australian programmer – who has been working in IT for nearly 20 years and asked not to be identified out of fear of being the target of personal attacks – told the Guardian they had incidentally discovered the site’s possible security flaws and reported them to Trump Mobile.

So they only did it because the cat was already out of the bag. Which reassures me that the world has not turned upside down and all other Trumps ventures remain purely untainted by even the hint of a scruple.

They are nothing if not consistent.
:enraged_face:

These must be the “circumstances relating to government” that Trump had to miss his son’s wedding for.

“The Huckster” was the disparaging nickname the WWF gave him after he left for WCW. Also the name of a satirical character, along with the Nacho Man and Scheme Gene.

OK, someone explain that map to me, please, like I was a dumb foreigner (I am, incidentally). Does the US flag over Iran mean Iran has won, and does now own the flag? Do you have to pay royalties to the mullahs from now on to use your flag? Or does it mean the USA has won, and will impose the flag on Iran, whether they like it or not? Is Iran now the 50-somethingst state of the USA, after Greenland, Venezuela, and Canada? Is that the reason there are suddenly four red stripes below the blue square with the stars? Why do some countries on the map have names but others do not? Or in plain, simple English: What the everloving fuck is this all supposed to mean?

And to add insult to injury, here in Florida we have so many former golf courses that you can sometimes spot them from randomly looking at Google satellite view, yet there is still a desire to build new courses. I think it is because golf technology has increased drive distance so the old courses are no longer challenging enough and indeed may put the surrounding houses at increased danger from longer yet still erratic drives from new players.

And the governor had a wacky plan last year to put new golf courses in State parks of all places. It wouldn’t be so bad on the environment if they just kept the old courses open.

The one upside is that they are turning some of the old courses into parks themselves. (The bad side of that is that golf course looking parks are my least favorite type of park scenery, only beating out parks that are only used for sports. I guess golf course style parks would be ideal for a family picnic on the grass in front of a pond.)

This is just my opinion, but I believe that map is trump’s wet dream about the USA taking over other countries. Like Greenland, like Cuba, like Canada. Reminiscent of when “the sun never set on the British empire.” He wants to be able to say the sun never sets on where the American flag demonstrates our sovereignty. Except he doesn’t know the word sovereignty, because it’s more than one syllable.

As far as the stripes and stars and colors, he can’t count and he’s probably color blind, and has no idea what an authentic American flag looks like so those are just petty details.

Band Name!

DEMENTO Don wants to have a remembrance of him in all these places. I agree and would love to see one of his arms here, a leg in this country, some organs interred in that country, butt cheek buried there, …

Sir, here is a pencil and paper. Yes, sir, erasing is allowed.

Your task is to draw a clock-face, with the numbers 1 through 12 placed correctly, sir.

Once you are content with your clock-face, sir, please draw in what it would look like if the time was four-forty, sir. You have fifteen minutes. To assist you, keep in mind the minute hand is longer than the hour hand.

  • one part of the Montreal Cognitive Test, which he claims to have “aced” at least four times.

He phones in to the Stern Show, and I assume Stern didn’t go on to ask what the answer is. Yet doing math in your head is part of no cognitive test that I know of. I just want to see him draw a clock. Not sure who could convince him of the challenge.

I’m sure he goes to his Doctor, and says, “I aced this test. Repeat that back to me.” And the doctor quacks back, “You aced this test.”

The Department of Justice has officially scrubbed its public website of all historical news releases documenting the criminal prosecution of the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

We are proud to reverse the DOJ’s weaponization under the Biden administration. We will do everything in our power to make whole those who were persecuted for political purposes.

Maybe turn the old golf cart path into a walking/jogging/bicycling path.

Except that after the environmental damage caused by constructing the courses in the first place, the maintenance of them to keep them open is an ongoing and horrible disaster for the environment.

Evidently Rip van Simple can only count to 51. Iran is yet another 51st state. And regarding the stripes, I’m more interested in why there’s an extra white stripe at the bottom.

Hey, there’s nothing wrong with being colorblind! But you know the felon isn’t because he’s first and foremost a racist.

But of course he doesn’t know what it looks like, just like he doesn’t know what anything or anyone else he’s raped looks like.

First the felon gave us cofefve. Now secretary of war crimes Hegseth has demonstrated a brand-new concept: clusterfuckup.

& (The bolding is mine.)

A Republican representative called the felon’s slush fund what it is: reparations for the felon’s supporters.

Mind you, he thinks it’s a good thing.

Department of Just Believe What I Tell You is erasing the insurrection.

Huh. I looked him up, and he’s still alive. Haven’t heard anything about him for years.

Shot and chaser.

He has endorsed cruel stupidity, and told millions of Americans that they don’t have to even try any more. “Might makes Right” is official policy now.
