FFS, he is going on again about pencils and dolls. He sounds like shit.

[demmiblue]

Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

1. Besides educating your children is a woke scam

Who the hell wants smart people to vote?

[electric_blue68]

12. Not Repuglicans,for sure!

[malaise]

2. He is stark raving

MAD

[speak easy]

17. ... or as the Brits would say,

BARKING

[joshdawg]

20. Or more like bat-shit crazy!

[niyad]

25. Bats are insulted!

[JBTaurus83]

3. Please proceed

With the economic tour.

[Maru Kitteh]

24. RIGHT?

This is . . . . delicious

[newdeal2]

39. He really feels my pain

My family needs less pencils and dolls and more steel! - some MAGA idiot

[3catwoman3]

4. Didn't he do the doll rant last year, too?

If anybody had 37 doll for Christmas, it was probably Ivanka.

[electric_blue68]

13. Bwah!

[Prairie Gates]

23. He did the pencils last year, too...this is material from the 2024 campaign trail

Weak.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Melania is said to have hundreds of pairs of shoes.

Some of them costing more than $1000 a pair.
Total cost is unknown but I am guessing at least $200K.

But American children should only have one or two pencils.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

7. Another Imelda Marcos? nt

[Irish_Dem]

8. Yes exactly. She is obsessed with very expensive designer shoes.

And certain styles. She buys the same kind of ballet slipper from every designer and in every color.

[Ilsa]

18. I thought any woman with the last name

Trump was required to wear stiletto heels. Where does she wear ballet flats?

[Iris]

41. Wouldn't she wear them when with him so she is not taller than he?

[Irish_Dem]

44. Maybe she wears them when with her shorter boyfriend?

She is almost 6 ft tall.

[IbogaProject]

19. I'm sure 32 pencils per 40 million kids will close the trade gap

What a dummy.

[niyad]

26. Some Louboutins are nearly 4,000 a pair.

And I just googled the most expensive women's shoes, and nearly choked. 4 grand is nothing compared to some that I saw.

[Skittles]

43. I've always detested women who are batty about shoes

utterly fucking vain morons

[Blues Heron]

6. This is some of the weirdest shit ever in history

[Jack Valentino]

9. Donny, show me what your short pencil did to the dolly...

[Talitha]

29. Well played !!!

[question everything]

10. You can do without an edifice complex; you can do without a $250 million birthday military march

[patphil]

11. Translaton: He's telling us is to do with less (poverty), while his buddies do with more...a lot more.

This the 2nd time he's used the pencils and dolls analogy. The idiot thinks he's so smart; that people will "get it" and agree that poverty is a good thing.
Of course his audience get it, but they're brain dead zombies, so it all makes sense to them.

Note: Pencils and Dolls is a good name for a MAGA rock band.

[electric_blue68]

14. Grabs my 40 pencils, and....

runs away !!!

Mind you, these were 40 different colored pencils......
not, like, (1 doz per case; 3 cases+ 4) 40 2Bs!
🪈🪈🪈🪈
😄😄😄

[llmart]

15. Are they laughing with him or at him?

It's disturbing to think those people behind him think he's just being "funny". I think he belongs in a funny farm and pronto!

Jaysus! Whatever happened to wanting a president who was a great orator? This just blows my mind how far off course this country is.

[ToxMarz]

16. I'm really hoping I get some of that steel in my stocking this christmas

Everybody needs some of that.

[eppur_se_muova]

21. Reality TV sucks.

But the Dementia Channel sucks hardest.

[Prairie Gates]

22. He's really replaying this nonsense from way back when? Get some new material, my guy

Booooooring.

[hibbing]

27. Did he talk about showers too? n/t

[H2O Man]

28. Recommended

His bringing out the "oldies but moldies" is a good sign.

[niyad]

30. "Persians for t####"??? I don't know of any cats who vote.

And who paid for all those expensive, professional, pre-made signs, krasnov? It wasn't George Soros.

[UpInArms]

31. Those people with the "Bigger Paychecks" signs

now can only afford 2 pencils?

[Initech]

32. WTF era is he living in?

[Dave Bowman]

34. I wish it was the Mesozoic so we wouldn't have to endure that sick clown.

[Renew Deal]

33. Trumps Tarrif America: Less toys, smaller cars

How long before he renames Washington DC Leningrad?

[sprinkleeninow]

35. equating his pencil shtick with being in PENCILVANIA?

🥱

[democrank]

36. How many pencils could we buy with The Trump Ballroom money?

How many dolls could we buy with the annual cost of his golfing junkets?

[Buddyzbuddy]

37. Yeah, I'm gonna take budget advice from a Felon that had to pay off

women because he couldn't keep it in his pants. He has 0 control but your child should have 1 maybe 2 dolls. Tell me again how his 18 year old kid made a fortune in digital currency.

[Cha]

38. Would you just look at all

those Fascist Toadies pimping for PEDO & Putin.

Pimping: adjective
petty; insignificant; trivial.

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/pimping

[HeartsCanHope]

40. Why must we sacrifice more?

I think we've given up enough. Time for the Repugnicans to give up some things like--payoffs from lobbyists, fancy trips, RVs, etc. The corruption of this administration is staggering! This man and his cronies are pure evil.
We need to eat, have shelter, healthcare, medicine, clean air and water, jobs--we're fighting for NECESSITIES--not dolls or pencils!
All I want for Christmas is for Trump to go to HELL!

[usonian]

42. Again with the dolls? FAFO

45. just incredible optics here, the president yelling at you about how you should buy less and like it, three weeks before

just incredible optics here, the president yelling at you about how you should buy less and like it, three weeks before christmas, while standing in front of a bunch of stupefied moronic dipshits holding BIGGER PAYCHECKS signs
