Foreign Asset Destroys Half the White House

And the Republican voters are bending over with a smile.

No money for hungry kids, no money for medicine, no money for housing, no money for anything except war and a vain self-appointed "King."

I honestly think most of the country believes that somehow everything will just work out. At the very least, the media seems to be carrying the notion that they're just an outside third party observing things and not an active participant who will most assuredly feel the wrath of the Mad King's policies.

They're correct and it will

What's really stupid about this shit is that Yam Tits and his MAGA imbeciles (but I repeat myself) keep yapping about how having a ballroom would've "prevented" the recent assassination attempt.

The dinner is put on by the White House Correspondents' Association, not the president or government. They'll continue to have it at a hotel or some other venue.

And CNN actually committed some journalism and put together a montage showing all the times the orange diaper-load said that it wouldn't cost the taxpayers any money.

hello pollyanna i have some land in S. Fla. for sail waterfront it is 'maybe' a little water back but thats ok it will all work out and you will have dry land after awhile you just have to sit back and wait for it to happen your part is easy. now remember you are in the bleachers we are in the game. but it will all work out now go to sleep sweet dreams

I’m, intentionally, out of the news loop these days.

Is there a news article in this thread suggesting Trump wants a ballroom in the White House?

Not *in*, exactly, but the whole reason he had the east wing of the white house torn down was to facilitate building a ballroom (as well as the bunker/datacenter/whatever being installed beneath it).

Yes, the orange man is pissing obscene amounts of money up the wall on yet another vanity project.

Here. Perhaps a wee Google next time, aye Cap'n?

But that's so boring. Trans people are the real threat.

In case anyone here was still confused as to why Donald Trump is so completely unqualified and incapable of 'running' the US government (I say 'running' as 'the president' would be assumed to be 'in charge' of the country), this would be a perfect example.

it's just me. i have been stupid enough to actually study and understand not only the documents regarding establishing the US, I also studied the writings of the philosophers from whom the Founding Fathers took their ideas.

Of course, those ideals were almost immediately dismissed as soon as Jefferson took office. So, I can see where others think Jeffersonian politics is what the founding fathers wanted.

Now say something about litterboxes, you tiresome, petty little bitch.

That's you in the trans thread.

Then you are scrolling right past yourself and Coluratura. You both exhibit radioactive glowing baboon ass levels of butthurt over any intrusion into your echo chamber.

Okay, pronoun-phobia guy.

Sure. My saying "No" compares to coluratura screeching for half a fucking page.

Apology accepted.
Now let's back to Trump's awful ballroom.

Technically true.

When one of my cousins was 3-4 years old, he rubbed a strong fridge magnet on their CRT TV, and drew rainbows on the screen, and went "ohhhh it's soooo beaaautifuuuulll!!! ".
I imagine that's what goes through Trump's head as he wreaks this desecration.

A penny is too much.

That's a closeup of what used to be the East Wing. The White House is to the left of what's in the image.
