Thankfully it seems to be emerging that the only people on Trump’s side are Putin, Hillbillies, and a small gaggle of fuckwits he’s surrounded himself with.

The entire rest of the world thinks he’s a total basket case who is plunging the U.S. into an irrecoverable death-spin.

He will be ousted before he finishes his four years, I’m certain of it.

'Unethical as you can get': Experts decry Trump's latest 'naked quid pro quo'​


A special VIP tour of the White House or even an exclusive dinner with President Donald Trump can be yours – for a price.

The Trump-owned company that unveiled the president’s official meme coin just before his inauguration announced Wednesday that top holders of the cryptocurrency would be selected to attend a private dinner with the MAGA leader, Mother Jones reported Wednesday. The 25 leading buyers, meanwhile, will be treated to a special VIP White House tour.

“According to the coin’s official website, its top 220 holders will be invited to a special May 22 dinner at Trump’s country club outside Washington, DC,” the Mother Jones report said.

“An even more special perk is in store for the 25 biggest holders, who ‘will be invited for an ultra-exclusive private VIP Reception with the President. And separately by us to a Special White House Tour,’” it added, noting that the coin’s website was riddled with grammatical mistakes.

“This is about as unethical as you can get—essentially selling off access to the president and the White House,” he added.

While Libowitz slammed the action as unethical, he said it likely wasn’t illegal.

“There are, unfortunately, no laws that apply to the president that could be violated here, unless one of the top 25 holders was something like a foreign state’s wealth fund,” he said. Separately, Libowitz cautioned Mother Jones that “any staffer involved in selling access to the White House may have some issues.”



And I thought it couldn't get much worse but..................................................

Have a look at that run of headlines.

Trump is a f***ing dick.

I completely agree, but this is nothing new. Or surprising. It's not like the guy was going to suddenly change in four years from being an insufferable lying bellend, to a president that had empathy, compassion and any kind of plan to ACTUALLY make the USA better.

He's an egotistical fraud who is out of his depth, doesn't REALLY want to be president and doesn't give a shit about anyone other than himself. Again, none of that is anything new!

The Liar's at it again.

"China said Donald Trump’s claims of ongoing trade talks between Beijing and Washington were “groundless” after the US president played up the prospects of a deal to lower the tariffs he imposed on the world’s second largest economy.

Any suggestion about China-US economic and trade negotiations is “groundless and has no factual basis”, according to Chinese commerce ministry spokesman He Yadong.

On Wednesday night, Mr Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that he would set tariffs in the next two or three weeks but said a deal with China “depends on them”.

He said the US and China were speaking “every day” on tariffs.

Mr He said: “As the competent department for foreign economic and trade relations, I would like to emphasise that there are currently no economic and trade negotiations between China and the United States".

Nothing new, of course. I meant more in relation to the war. He was a prick in his first term but things have changed.

He was a prick in the 70’s and 80’s when he was rumoured to be doing deals with the NY mafia and the Concrete Club to get his buildings built.

The war in Europe has shown even murkier depths to his stupidity, cowardice, and cruelty.

So no, he’s not changed but we are seeing even more of it than last time. The world has changed.
