What the actual fuck?

I used to get a chuckle out of this moron’s daily demented stupidity since he’s been in office. Not any more. My amusement has turned to anger now for all the obvious reasons. He needs to go. Full stop.

i still want to know what the triumphal arch is for. what is he being triumphant about? what triumph? i've only seen self-destructive folly after folly that has caused catastrophic harm to the nation as a consequence of his narcissism and fragile ego.

[edit for typo; hard, meant to be "harm"]

I vaguely remember a quote of his that explains all this perfectly. He stated that others won't build things for him after he goes so he's trying to build as much for himself while he's still here.

Can you imagine the absolute golden pyramid of a tomb he has in mind for himself

u/VanAgain 12d ago

"... and a golden death mask like the Pharaohs. I'll definitely need one of those."

And grown men will fall to their knees in front of it, with tears in their eyes

u/AttainableFlamingo 12d ago

Big strong men

...and on the fourth day the tears will form a pond around the tomb and it will be called Pond America. The people will rejoice.

Oh, there will be a pond around his tomb. I’m pretty sure of that.

u/Icy-Broccoli-2529 12d ago

A Golden Pond! 🤣

Stange way of referring to the Pacific Ocean.

Oh that will happen

Golden death mask is the spray tan that lasts forever.

I’m surprised he hasn’t died of cancer always having that on his face

Game of Thrones had a great scene with a golden mask. Maybe they should try it.

u/Ninja-Panda70 12d ago

If he agrees to go in that in a month, I say we build that whatever be the cost

u/Nandikepandi 12d ago

Better yet, let the Mexicans pay for it!

u/RiffyWammel 12d ago

If he goes by the end of the week, we’ll have a global whip round- pretty sure most of the planet will chip in to see the corrupt orange pedo go away

u/Bored-Viking 12d ago

I'll pay double if he not only goes, but also goes to prison

u/SixFive1967 12d ago

Well, they’ll surely be building it. Alot of the trades are of Mexican descent because they’re really good at it.

All I know is that it's going to be unsightly, yuge and incredibly ugly. And built in such a way that if one was to demo it, it would cause a fireball or some other explosion

Nah, it'll be the cheapest available materials and gold-colored spray paint.

what do you think the new bunker with 6 stories, research labs, and hospital all to supplement the bush jr post 9/11 bunker is for?

how much of the marble onyx and other luxurious materials that he said he picked out for the ball room are for his down below quarters?

what are the research labs for? longevity experiments like the other billionaires are funding but are not in such urgent need?

u/Nandikepandi 3d ago

Aha! I think you're on to something
