As the US reeled from the latest shooting of an anti-ICE protester by federal agents, Donald Trump launched a 450-word rant in which he claimed that stopping the construction of his luxurious $400 million presidential ballroom would be devastating to the White House, our Country, and all concerned.
In a series of social media posts on Sunday, the president briefly addressed the situation in Minneapolis following the fatal shooting of ICU nurse Alex Pretti, writing: Minnesota is a Criminal COVER UP of the massive Financial Fraud that has gone on! He also praised allies for their appearances on Fox News to talk about the situation.
But by far his longest message, which he pinned to the top of his Truth Social feed, concerned the threat posed to the building of his White House ballroom by a lawsuit which seeks to stop it in its tracks. Im building, on top of everything else that I am doing, one of the greatest and most beautiful Ballrooms anywhere in the World, with more than 300 Million Dollars of Great American Patriots money, and working closely with, right from the beginning, the United States Military and Secret Service, the president wrote.
Making such a large gift to the U.S.A. was thought to be, by almost everyone, A WONDERFUL THING TO DO But no, as usual, I got sued, this time by the Radical Left National (No!)Trust for Historic Preservation, a group that couldnt care less about our Country!

(54,690 posts)His ticker is ticking away...for about a few more months. I suggest that in lieu of a headstone we make a teeny, tiny ballroom on his grave. Of course millions will want to piss on it so it must be made durable and strong, unlike the fucking moron.

(4,011 posts)just thinking of an appropriate honor. here are a few song ideas
put bitcoins on his eye balls and feed him to bobby's worm
wrap him in epstein's sheets and bury him in a pyramid scheme.
push him down the stairs like the mother of his children.
under the georgia guidestones
or the rubble of the arc d' trump.
there are piles of ashes everywhere he has done business.
real nice if the arc's falls on him during his endless booring dedication to himself.
bury him in a mass grave with the iranians he promised to support
or the afghan women
or the ukrainians
or kurds
or the gazans to whom he brought peace.
launch him on a space x. destination mars.
his life has been a ponzi scheme it should end in a pyramid
bury him in grant's tomb if that's what you want
take him on a midnight cruise like epstein sank the children
buried at sea with the fishermen killed for their oil.
push him on an ice flow towards greenland
with a hungry polar bear.
My apologies to the bear, there is nothing nourishing ina carcass full of bull shit.
helicopter, helicopter, helicopter )to the tune of frank zappa "rutabaga"

(2,993 posts)Once his professional sycophants and propagandists get back to work tomorrow he'll be out with an executive order declaring that everyone in ICE detention needs to start working in the fields to earn their "keep", and thanks for our attention to this matter (or some other ridiculous shit that he's been wanting to see happen).
Like Pavlov's dogs, the magafolk will drool at the prospect, and the trained seals and stenographers of the M$M will be off the topic of Pretti, instantly switching to a day or two of headlines re: the deep question of "can Trump REALLY do that?!?", never to return until the next citizen is gunned down in the streets, by then Pretti and Good have become statistics.
