With the way he always misunderstands everything, I shudder to think about what he will come up with.

Where is what's left of his mind going to decide what a cock fighting arena should be?

and displayed for every American to see for free when tRump and his criminal pals are hanged for treason. The U.S. Constitution empowers Congress to determine the punishment for treason, and federal law currently lists the death penalty as an allowable sentence for those convicted I vote for that!!!

Get out the popcorn and booze!



The fucking moron always tries to look like Mussolini, I hope his public hanging is identical to that day in history.

the following proclamation will be made:
(with apologies to The Ten Commandments movie of 1956)

Let the name of Trump be stricken from every book and media,
stricken from all buildings, hotels, golf courses, road signs, and commercial merchandise,
stricken from every institution and monument of America and the world.

Let the name of Trump be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men, women, and children for all time.

So let it be written.
So let it be done.

UFC Is Coming to the White House. Here’s What You Need to Know

On June 14, President Donald Trump will celebrate both his 80th birthday and the 250th anniversary of the United States’ founding with the country’s greatest spectacle: several hours of undoubtedly bloody cage fights on the White House’s South Lawn.

The event is the culmination of a long relationship between Trump and the UFC’s president, American businessman Dana White. White, who recently told Rolling Stone that he was “right down the middle” politically, has been a staunch ally of the president for Trump’s entire political career. Trump, in turn, has been both Dana White and the sport of MMA’s biggest fan for decades.

“Everyone has their thing, and Donald Trump’s thing is the UFC,” White told Rolling Stone.

snip

“We’re at a fight, and he looks at me in the middle of the fight and says, ‘You know what? We should do a fight at the White House.’ And I’m like, ‘Yes, you should do a fight at the White House.’ White said. “I don’t know if you’ll ever meet anybody more proud of the White House than he is. He absolutely loves that place and he feels like it’s America’s house, and we should do things where more people can come to the White House and be able to experience it.”

bold is mine

i thought that asshole said the white house was a shit place to live (i think b/c obama was there before him) but i remember him insulting it and having NOTHING good to say about it. now he loves it? what crap. if he loved it then it certainly wouldn't be looking like the trash it appears to be
