Top right. That's an Italian translator reacting to Trump's claim that the US and Italy “have been friends since Ancient Rome.” She was probably thinking: "I have to translate this? I hate my job."
Why didn't you tell US allies in Europe and Asia, like Japan about the war before attacking Iran? > You don't want to signal too much when you go in. We went in very hard, and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? ... You believe in surprise, I think, much more so than us. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8dlpr074q3o
As are we all, every day. Top right: "The United States and Italy are deeply connected, with similar cultural views that we share together for thousands of years, since the time of Ancient Rome," said Trump, the president of the country founded in 1776, while Ancient Rome, founded in 753 BC, disappeared in 410 AD.
Caligula was at least promising to begin with, until an illness claimed the barrier to madness. Most of us rational people have never seen Drumpf as anything more than a clown and a charlatan unfit to live, let alone in the white house. We have watched in bewilderment and disappointment when people voted for him the first time and then in disbelief and horror when the idiots voted him in yet again. That the fanatics would continue to defend a child molester is telling of their values and ideals.
I'm an American living in Japan and LET ME TELL YOU how awkward today was with what Donald said about Pearl Harbor. Of course the news here reported it endlessly.
I'm neither American nor Japanese and I wanted to sink into the floor when I heard him say that. Serves me right, I know it is extremely bad for my own wellbeing to listen to Trump for more than 5 seconds.
I just skip over any video of him anymore. I know he's such a fucking racist PDF piece of shit. That anything said bad about him is going to probably be true.
Japan's PM was in the Oval (lady, top in the picture). Trump said he didn't share the plans of attacking Iran, because surprise attacks are good. Then referred to the Japanese delegation and asked something to the effect of "You know how good surprises are, right?"
Wasn't the exchange like "Why didn't you tell anyone that you'd go after Iran" "Well, you have some experience with surprises, no?"? I mean, the most natural answer to that would be "Yeah, did we ever tell you that we also have tons of experience about the 'find-out' phase of such surprises?"
I mean, that's still not how a President should fucking respond. Also, the two events aren't in any way analogous. It's just a rude, piece of shit thing to bring up.
I understand why ultra-wealthy & technazis like him, he's the repulsive distraction meant to infuriate & bewilder while they all strip America for parts. He's the flaming bag of dog shit you throw into a church so nobody sees you steal the collection plate. But how that pampered, gibberish-spewing, fragile whiny little bitch became the figurehead of America's blue-collar & self-proclaimed "tough guys" I'll never get. I mean, he's just so profoundly soft, weak & stupid.
There's an article resurfacing from 2016 that uses arguments from Plato's The Republic, where once a democracy is too forgiving a tyrant emerges, and it seems to completely explain the Trump effect, down to "an elite that implicates his elite peers in crimes to gain popular support while doing all the bad things." As always I can't find it. I was a STEM kid so I never read the classics but now see the [immense] value in them.
I hate to be the one to tell you, but it's sadly no longer the late 90's and Tony Hawk is 57. Not that he still isn't awesome, but the passage of time blows :(

It's as if the GOP are immensely PROUD to have such an ignorant person representing them. That speaks volumes for the GOP voters.

Let's see... Dictatorship, persecution of non-believers, imperialist agenda, aggressive campaigns of conquest.
They DO share a lot with ancient Rome, even if separated by the ages!
