Thanks idiots!
To everyone who voted for Donald Trump: thanks for putting this lunatic back in the White House. That is, of course, written facetiously. Donald Trump gave a press conference on Monday. Raw Story called it “rambling” and covering virtually everything under the sun. This is how Trump always speaks, which adds yet another element to the mystery of him winning the election. One of the things Raw Story mentioned is that Trump said: “No water comes out of the shower” because of Democrats. In addition to water, Trump discussed military action in Panama and Greenland, renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, all while calling America a “horrible place.” Did you people who voted for this nut not listen to him? He’s nothing but trouble, and he will get absolutely nothing done. He’s just going to waste four years of our time, sitting in the Oval Office talking craziness. A former D.C. staffer (@Angry_Staffer) posted on X: “He’s bitching about water pressure. He’s talking about electric heaters making people itch. He says he’s going to try to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. He says windmills drive whales crazy.” Trump should know crazy because he is. Political analyst Rachel Bitecofer responded to Trump’s “idea” to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico: “Someone shoot me.” That’s the way most of us feel right now. Democracy aside, we had the opportunity to keep sanity in the White House, but no, that wasn’t good enough for you all. Are you happy with your choice?
During his press conference, Trump also said: “But the 625 million acres, people can’t realize. It’s like the whole ocean…. It’s like, feels like the whole ocean.” What the hell is this dude talking about? He is certifiable. He doesn’t belong in the White House; he belongs in an institution. Case in point: during his conversation about water, he discussed his dissatisfaction with faucets, dishwashers, and washing machines. These appliances also have “little water coming out of them” according to Trump. He said it’s “all about common sense” and that they are the “party of common sense.” I suppose that’s true if your sense is in the stratosphere. To show just how out of touch Trump is, CNN reported that he wants to declare “a national economic emergency” to impose the tariffs he wants to create. According to CNN: “The declaration would allow Trump to construct a new tariff program by using the International Economic Emergency Powers Act, … which unilaterally authorizes a president to manage imports during a national emergency.” Once again, we see that Trump is literally clueless about the things he wants to do, yet another reason that he’s not qualified for the job of president.
A majority of voters put Trump in the White House. “Why” is not clear. Nothing has changed about him. He’s clueless, incompetent, and hateful. You’re going to hear this a lot from me: The next four years will be hell. Hopefully, we will survive it.
