Donald I, emperor of the world.

[All uphill]

He will be doing a State of the Nation speech on Thursday.
Could be a doozie.

They'll fill him up with blood fresh from children, give him some uppers and the US public will get an hour of guff, including:

Ballroom, greatest, biggest, never seen before, they didn't think, booming economy,

As the drugs wear off he'll slide into:

Comey, EU bad, they owe me

 

[icowden]

Well fark me...

It turns out that in the US, when a Senator dies they don't have a sort of by-election, they just ask a random family member to do his job for the next x number of years. Someone unchecked, unelected, probably unqualified.

How is that in any way sane?

There will be a relaunch of McCarthyism I think. Lots of talk about evil socialism and wotnot.

Weird, but seemingly quite very common.

“There is a long tradition of family members replacing lawmakers when they die, to finish the term.

According to the US House of Representatives in 2025, 45 widowed women have directly succeeded their late husbands in Congress - 38 in the House and eight in the Senate.”

What day is it? Not a test and you don’t need to check the calendar.
“Donald Trump reverses his threat for a toll on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, as the US prepares to resume its blockade of Iran's ports.”

Trump has finally paid E Jean her $5m.

I wonder if he'll try to sue her now for $5bn because his feelings have been hurt...

For comparison, from about a year ago (or was it ten years?)

Donnie’s thought process (😂🤪😂) biting him.

• On Lindsey Graham: “His father died just about at the same age from you know, I’m a believer in the racehorse theory—if you have problems, you have problems. He had some problems.”

… His racehorse theory is about genetics and breeding. Just a side note that Trump’s father Fred had dementia in his early 80s.

Plus $620,000 in interest payments for not paying up. What a great business man!

Is it just me/that one photograph, but he does seem to be losing that orange glow he once had.
