Duke of Bullshit: "The" Donald

Here is another one for those who are amused with clever art work

An apposite offering

The ambition to get America's trade/budget deficits under control seems a reasonable aspiration.
It's all under control though, the magical tariffs (which definitely aren't taxes) will have them rolling in money.

It does seem ridiculous that America was spending so much to defend Europe.
He didn't have to be so spiteful and deny intelligence to Ukraine and he could have given more warning.
I suppose he did give warning but Trump 1 said all sorts of ridiculous contradictory stuff he didn't do.
As has been observed those that observe, Trump II is doing the stuff he said he was going to do.
Maybe the Canadian fearfulness isn't as silly as I thought.

thank you for that. but i think that youre giving us too much credit.

trumpism is a real force in america. i work with people every day who repeat nonsense about current events and the people involved. i cannot discuss it with them because of their ignorance and weird beliefs.

how do you discuss politics rationally with someone who explains that joe biden stays young by drinking the blood of murdered children? or who complain that alexandria ocasio cortez has a bank account worth $40 million? her paltry finances are public record, but that doesnt matter.

people that i work with think that ukrainians deserve to die because zelensky didnt wear a suit.

so i dont know.

Jesus Christ! And not in a good way.

Bullshit: Value Added Taxes (Vats) are just as punitive on imports as tariffs.

Vats are applied to local production of goods and services and imports equally.

Perhaps to improve the efficiency of their economy the US could consider a national VAT, like civilized countries have, instead of a dog's breakfast of local sales/other taxes.

Trump is the problem not America.

He was elected by a majority of voters, he does all the shit he does and the majority of Americans don't seem to mind, many are elated.  Trump couldn't do anything without America, Vance is next in line, America is a problem.

This is a baby sharing a laugh with its mum.

That's one cute baba!

Ye, I'm thinking of imposing two minutes of baby laughter on everyone everyday.
We'll watch them, their responses, if they aren't right we'll send the off to Obrien.
I'm sure Americas drift to mutant ugly toddlerism could have been arrested
It's not too late for Europe though, so I hope.
