He Has No Deal, He Has No Dice - Trump Thread #162

[Spandauer]

Old enough to remember whole years in which I barely thought about the American president.

eta: in my haste I think I've numbered the thread incorrectly! Oh well.

That's 3 ships attacked today. One damaged.

I'm off to watch The Testaments. At least that dystopian world is fiction.

Where's that woman from? Deport her immediately!

Who was the wag who referred to the Strait of Hormuz as Schroedingers strait ? Could the next thread title be based on that?
Or some twist about Trump requiring a Strait jacket?

That was me, originally 😁

Every day I wonder why my lovely dad's aorta ruptured in his early 70s and Trump's remains intact

Trump is wearing Schroedingers Strait jacket and can't talk his way out for once...

Going on the counter protest - hoping we match numbers a bit better this time! Also gonna be more prepared to dodge bottles ha!

This has (probably unreasonably) spoiled one of my favourite records as a youngster and since - sigh.

It looks like the orange one’s idea to reintroduce mental ‘asylums’ is not so wild after all 😳

From CNN

“"We have very good conversations going on,” Trump said on Iran. “They got a little cute, as they have been doing for 47 years,” Trump added.

“They wanted to close up the strait again, as they’ve been doing for years. They can’t blackmail us,” Trump said, adding that he will have some more information “by the end of the day.”

“We’re talking to them, and you know, we’re taking a tough stand. They killed a lot of people. A lot of our people have been killed,” Trump said."

Pardon.

“....as they’ve been doing for years. "

Another historical revision. I wonder why his MAGA fans do the same. More revisionism than at a Communist Party of China conference.

😬

Wow🤯

How very convenient.

Was that a genuine statement?
If so that's beyond mental and she needs help.

It appears to be

Thank you.
I genuinely despair at what's happening in the world due to one man.

Trump greeted by empty seats at Arizona rally leaving supporters 'totally shocked'.

The president who once filled sports venues across the country couldn't even come close to filling a 4,500-seat Arizona church on Friday night, exposing the dramatic erosion of his political momentum.
^^
According to the Washington Post, Trump was the featured speaker at a Turning Point USArally in Phoenix at Dream City Church. Despite his boast earlier in the day on Truth Social about addressing a "BIG CROWD," the turnout was sparse and underwhelming.
The attendance numbers tell the story. A Turning Point USA spokeperson claimed only about 3,000 people attended — meaning the church was roughly two-thirds full at best. For a president who once commanded arena-sized audiences, the half-empty megachurch represents a stunning reversal.

Well Farage wasn't there ....

I look forward to the day no-one turns up to see him. And we all get to see the real pictures of this pathetic egomaniac railing at the emptiness.

What the fuck is a Paula White? That looks like something from a horror film.

He has to go.

Trump deals double blow to the great British pint.
The Iran war is putting pressure on carbon dioxide supplies needed to make beer — and last year’s U.K.-U.S. trade deal has already been blamed for undercutting British plants.

Joe Rogan was kissing his orange ass in the Oval Office yesterday

Whose face have they photoshopped onto him? And I know she's a lunatic, but surely some joker has done that to her eyes? Are they actually rolled back in her head?

Quelle surprise. (Apologies if this has already been posted.)
