We really need to get him a toddler activity center to keep him occupied.

If only he'd just stick to his shitty ballroom.

... And everyone else in the federal mafia would find some offers they can't refuse somewhere padded

It's too bad we couldn't have put AI to good use instead of the thing most of the elite have reached for first (destroying jobs).

We could have generated deepfakes of Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers saying great things about Donvict (while out of office), fabricate an entire election for him in the run-up to 2024, and surround him with a set of paid actors telling him he's President, letting him sign bullshit EOs and legislation. Have someone fashion a Nobel Peace Prize and deepfake the news about it and so on. All "channels" on his screen(s) are just a stream of AI deepfakes all praising Dear Leader Donvict.

Just generally making him feel like a Bigly Important Big Boy, all tucked away in an old folks' home or Mar-a-Lago.

I would even take someone like a Romney over this nightmare. Certainly Kamala would have been 1000x better than this...but apparently we cannot even have mildly nice things.

I guess he's never been shown a topographical map of Iran

He hates the troops and values no lives but his own and those that he can use to further enable his malignant narcissism and further energy himself. They're not even pieces on a game board to him, because games have rules that he'd have to play by. They're action figures that he can smash with a hammer and light on fire.

Trump can't read maps. Or anything else.

Obviously the blue part is the land

I'm sure he has been shown one. What do you expect him to do with it? The man is easily the dumbest creature on this planet.

Is he gonna turn Iran into the US' Ukraine?

I thought Venezuela would be his Ukraine.

Maybe it will be Iran now... or Ecuador... or Cuba. Depends how many more Epstein files are released.

¿Por qué no todas?

Send tacos.

Huh, after all that gaslighting about "woke" wars from Petey Hegseth and semantic word games about it not really being a "war" from several of his apparatchiks.

He's very interested in troops dying, especially liberal ones, so they can't oppose him when he takes over elections in November and beyond.
