Musk being best buds with the President of the USA is legit friggin' scary, speaking as a foreigner.

Then you remember that Trump, and it becomes terrifying.

Caravan of Fools comes to mind…

The dark and distant drumming 
The pounding of the hooves 
The silence of everything that moves 
Late at night you'll see them 
Decked out in shiny jewels 
The coming of the caravan of fools

Like the wings of a dove 
The waiter's white glove 
Seems to shimmer by the light of the pool 
Some dull, blinding winter 
When you can't help but lose 
You're running with the caravan of fools

Love and devotion, deep as any ocean 
Don't play by anybody's rules 
With your carousel of horses 
And your unforeseen forces 
You're running with the caravan of fools

Caravan of fools, caravan of fools 
You're running with the caravan of fools

This reminds me of so many comments from Americans saying how embarrassing Biden is as a president and that no one takes 🇺🇸'Murica🦅 seriously anymore under the Democrats. It was weird to read as a foreigner because I loosely remember what Trump was like. And now here we are again. Hope Americans are proud.

Nahhh... we're pretty fucking disappointed... Least everyone I know with half a brain.

I wish I knew someone who was disappointed. The only two people in my life that aren't Trumpers are my daughter and her fiance. Everyone else thinks that gas will get back to $1/gallon and food prices will return to pre Covid levels on Jan 21.

No, that's Mike "My son and I know each other's porn habits" Johnson.

Dang it. He's not the master vampire.

It may be real, but why does it look shopped, especially jr looks fake.

It’s because his mouth really looks like a butthole. Some uncanny valley shit. What can I say, some people just got that butthole mouth thing going on.
