America vs the World VI: Camps of... Concentration...

The trouble is that the current state of the US is entirely of Trumps own making.

Great post and I agree with most of it, but not this line.
You have to put some of the blame on the people who voted for him again.
From the FAFO face-eating leopard voters to the people who just didn't care that he's a convicted felon and awful human being.

The Daily Show did this video to help the astronauts returned to Earth catch up on current events:

Yeah, this. Even if Trump is deposed tomorrow, you've got to make sense of how so many people got out of the house to vote for him on polling day. The problem is you can't dismiss them as a bunch of idiots because 76.9 million people is just too many for that. You've got to consider why/how that happened, or it'll happen again.

There will be so much poor education, footballism of political party choice and other factors like social media etc involved. It's the one area the Republicans are smart in, they're actively trying to destroy the education system and buyout social media platforms because they know smarter folk would see them for what they are. I wonder how much of that 77m is made up of diehards vs lazy red voters vs people simply voting Trump out of protest. Either way, they deserve it almost as much as those who didn't vote and let the obvious happen.

The White House has cancelled Elise Stefanik's nomination to be Ambassador the UN. The reasoning seems to be that her stepping down from the House to take up the role would result in them losing her seat, a staggering reflection of fear within Trumps party after only 8 weeks as she won her seat by +20 and so a sign they are starting to notice public opinion is turning

Trump is still plugging away at owning Greenland:
"We need Greenland for national security and international security.
So we'll-- I think we'll go as far as we have to go.
We need Greenland, and the world needs us to have Greenland, including Denmark. Denmark has to have us have Greenland"
(Actual quote)

At first, JD Vance's wife was coming to watch a dog sled race.
However, she was travelling with national security advisor Mike Walz.
Oh and around 100 secret service agents, so they're not at all checking out Greenland's security ready to annex it.

Then JD Vance announced he was coming too.
Not sure if he's worried about Walz getting it on with his wife, but if Walz is sexting her, he'll probably add JD to the Signal chat by mistake.

However, none of them have been invited by Denmark or Greenland and a recent poll has said that 85% of Greenlanders say they don't want to be part of the US, so they've scaled the visit back to just going to a military outpost.

Even Putin has warned the US not to try and take over the region.

In more positive news, sales have soared for red caps...

I need one of those hats.

****ing Danielle Smith, anti-vax queen of Alberta (aka Premier) is down in ****ing Florida with Ben Sharpie-row (****) at a fundraiser FFS! The same little **** who said Canada isn't a country and told Trudeau he was be working the Panama Canal once we were the 51st state.

So Canada has deployed Mike Myers.
...and reduced our US travel by 75%.

Trump jokes about selling allies dumbed-down F-35s, so Canada starts thinking twice about buying them, causing Lockheed-Martin to tell us they are going to create jobs in Canada. **** off.

Duplicate.

You know, I would have said that's only a joke, but apparently this administration doesn't work on rational thinking but if someone has slighted the kingpresident.

She doesn't have the intellect for the position she holds. Is she just let loose to divert bad press by being herself, unhinged?

She’s the dumbest, gobiest, most bigoted bitch in US government, and sadly there are millions of people who think she talks sense.

She very mistakenly things Trumps appeal applies to her and only gets a mouthpiece because he loves any woman who will fawn over him.

This is amazing. So a couple of weeks ago, Trump accuses Zelensky of not being a legitimate leader of Ukraine and a dictator because he should have had an election by now.
He also said in his campaign a while back that he'll have a Ukraine deal on the table on day 1 (or something like that).

Today Trump is annoyed when Putin says the same stuff: "You could say that I was very angry, pissed off, when... when Putin started getting into Zelensky's credibility, because that's not going in the right location,"
And also Trump says because he is a new President, there won't be a deal for along time. "New leadership means you're not gonna have a deal for a long time."

Then later in the day that he and Putin are best mates and that Putin won't go back on his word.

Only another 4 years of this level of entertainment. Or 2 if Trump decides it's time to use the nukes.

Recently been invited to a Signal chat by Mike Waltz? Got the date of the nuke strikes from the chat?
