AccuWeather warns that on Sunday, Washington looks like it will be hit with a “a heavy thunderstorm late in the afternoon,” in which “downpours and lightning could impact the events at the White House.”

Idk, that sounds like absolutely perfect weather for Donnie to go stand in a large open area under a big hastily built metal thing.

In his combover and spray tan.

He’ll look like a drowned weasel.

Please don’t disparage weasels like that. They did nothing to hurt you

I’ll have you know I was scratched up by a friend’s “pet” ferret as a kid, and bitten too now that I think about it.

Oh my gosh if he died due to lightning strike we could power the world on the cognitive dissonance from all the evangelicals.

Could you imagine if he gets struck by lightning? Like literally smitten on live TV. It's so poetic.

We only need a few bolts of lightning to really turn the ship around. No, Pete, not those lightning bolts.

resipsaloquitur@lemmy.cafe · -3 pts · 67d (3 replies)

Both are good.

Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 67d (2 replies)

No, there is definitely a set of bolts that are bad

Right, but "pete" is hegseth, who's a big ol nazi himself, so the bolts are the Nazi SS lightning bolts. The joke is much less fun this way.

Evangelicals, when hurricane happens:

That's Gawd and holy Jeeeeezus being angry at America for allowing Teh Ghey!

Evangelicals, if rain were to cancel a DonOLD event -

Why, that's just tragic.

Excuse me is this space laser kosher?

The salesman said it was halal, close enough for ya? It's basically the same, right? Just a different wizard and incantation?

I was hoping for a hurricane, maybe a tornado. But, ok

Even a mild drizzle will drive out the AntChrist.

Somehow, the world's biggest cry baby convinced people he's a tough hombre.

That one makes me angrier that some of his actual murders.

Look if we just nuke the storm we wont have to worry about it

SippyCup@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 67d

With enough nukes we could cool the planet down and get ahead of global warming.

God tried it with a bit of freezing at Inauguration Day, didn’t work. Thunder and lightning now, what’s next? A Plague of Locusts?

It took a plague to get him out of office the first time, let’s not push the issue.

one of my closest friends shares a birthday with the clown.

I just always feel bad like I have to do something extra nice for my friend to make up for it.

All day he has to hear about Trump on his birthday. All the parade nonsense last year. Now this.

He'll use that as an excuse to stop the whole thing so he can safe face. Oh it wasn't because he is extremely unpopular, a rapist, and a general PoS--- no, it's cause of the rain. Yep.

Steve@startrek.website · 6 pts · 67d
