this honestly sounds like an excited six-year-old showing off his crayon drawing of the cool new building he just thought up
"it has triangles!"
"drones bounce off it, but they also launch from it!"
"the soldier men can stand on the roof and protect us all!"

Trump, ranting and raving about his ballroom: "This is Rome. They like the flat roof. Greece likes the the triangles, and you see that. This is a porch that looks out over the city. Also, it's developed in such a way that we can have military there. It's also a drone port."

I cannot believe just how fucked we truly are at this point. We have a senile bastard of worthless character looting everything in sight and handing out favors like its Halloween night and everyone is Trick-or-Treating. We have an entire generation of kids hopelessly addicted to anti-social media, screens, and phones; and susceptible to the worst kind of propaganda because they lack both critical thinking or basic reading comprehension skills. We have allowed billionaires to amass fortunes that make Idi Amin blanche and at the same time.
The national debt and the global debt bubble that is forming around AI and datacenter madness is also a ticking time bomb of economic ruin. And we have 40% of this country STILL saying that Trump is A-OK and this is normal and gerrymandering away minority rights and representation is perfectly fine too?
