Fine. I’m calling it Gulf of the Americas and reminding everyone that the Americas are the continents, not the country.
A visionary and inclusive move!

Can we pleast waste the next 4 years renaming things and get nothing practical done? That sounds like perfectly good mud to spin the tires in.

The Onion is running out of material

Let's not forget, conservatives, CEOs and all that bunch operate with methods of a parlor magician. The louder they jingle the keys in one hand, the more we should be paying attention to what they are doing with the other.

Exactly this. All this outlandish bullshit is meant to soften the blow of something truly awful cooking.

Holy Lilith it's gonna be so awkward when the Europeans have to make invasion plans together with the Chinese because Trump is Blitzkrieg-ing through America.

You are radicalizing your former allies and neighbors, that is what you are doing.

Well, you see. We let those willfully ignorant fucks in the bible belt vote for some reason.

I've never seen a more vibrant walking, talking example of the need for the 25th amendment.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I low key wonder if that's the Republican plan. Just 25th amendment him and let Vance takeover. Vance pardons Trump who goes on Fox News weekly to yell about Mexicans or whatever.

That is strangely going to the relatives of the oversight committee, what what can you do, eh?

Fine, then we gotta spend the money to care for the natural life there as if it were ours.

Oh you don't want to spend the money? Figures, you cheapskate "conservatives".

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago
