UPDATE: I have added the following graf to my post, above the one about Donny shitting a massive brick.

"once again, Preznit Fuckwit has failed. just like he failed at running a real estate empire, and failed at running casinos, and failed at running an airline, and failed at running a football team, and failed at running a country, and failed at fighting a pandemic, Donny has now failed at throwing a national party."

Richard Von Busack's avatar

I don't think Charlie Brown will mind sharing his nickname with Donny: "Ol' Failure Face."

Butch's avatar

How about Donnie Dimwit? You know, the paychecks must be awfully fat for the Faux Noise hosts to lie like they do. They have to know what's right behind them.

devourerofpancakes's avatar

I'm shocked they keep broadcasting from the national state fair without even substituting crowd images from some other event. Apparently even they have given up trying to actually convince anyone to believe the lies.

Victoria Wilson's avatar

I was thinking the same thing too. As much as dear leader like to use AI shit, I thought they would spiff up the crowd images a bit. lol

Stephen Brady's avatar

I go to the gym in Bainbridge - smalltown GA. The TV in the cardio room is always playing Faux Snooze and this morning the bobbleheads were alternately gushing over Dear Leaders funfest on the mall, without one person visible outside their hut, and the awful Dems only 45% of whom are proud to be Americans. While wonderful Rethugs are 93% proud to be American...

devourerofpancakes's avatar

LOL. I wonder where those poll number came from. Actually don't tell me. I'd rather not think about FOX news orifices.

Beezerbomb's avatar

Yeah, I'm waiting to see a Sgt. Pepper album cover-like collage of various notables on the Mall.

Joanne Beck's avatar

And we and others have to clean up his disgusting messes.

Jeff Tiedrich's avatar

today in Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit—

Fox News has been once again broadcasting from the Mall this morning, and as of 10:20am, not one person has shown up

Yeah, but Jeff, can we talk about how Trump said He wants to have a threesome with his two sons? Because, really. He said that. And Some White House AssTwaddle approved that on a teleprompter like it was ok.

https://thistleandmoss.com/p/what-survives-the-morning-the-heat-that-won-t-break-the-flag-that-won-t-fold-and-we-wont-either

Let's keep score at home. He delivered this bit off a teleprompter. Someone wrote it. Someone approved it. Someone typed it into a teleprompter. Someone decided the Medal of Honor was the right room to workshop incest material about the president's own children. He then offered the boys a medal "for their genius at hunting" — the genius being, presumably, paying to stand near animals that can't shoot back — and one to himself for "taking on Russia, Russia, Russia," before the obligatory "no, I'm only kidding." A commander who ran on restoring dignity to the military can't honor the fallen without making it about a threesome with his kids. The vulgarity isn't the scandal. It's the tell. It always is. Every sacred thing is a prop to him, every room a mirror, every medal merchandise with his face where the eagle should be.

He is going to get worse.. His prefrontal filter is like Swiss cheese. Expect more inappropriate remarks as he crashes deeper into his oblivion.

Paula Dean's avatar

When my father's dementia became noticeable, it was because he started sending us - his children and grandchildren - pornographic emails describing what he found on websites for porn. In graphic detail. We had to block him. It was horrifying. And sadly, that is the way we remember him.

I should probably mention that my dad was also a narcissist, in case that's connected.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Sorry to hear that. I kinda wonder if trump, having been a predator, liar, and pervert all his life, will suddenly be changed by dementia into a decent human being. Then I come to my senses.

Cyndi's avatar

First rule of dementia progress: the patient will become more and more the person they always were. Then they will become vegetative.

Joyce's avatar

My brother-in-law's mother used to say, "A person doesn't change as they get older: they just get moreso."

Stephen Brady's avatar

Medical aphorism - personality disorders get worse with dementias and strokes.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

My mother used to say that! She always said that as you get older, you don't change; you just become more of what you always were. That's why, shortly before her death, when she had Parkinson's and couldn't get out much, she was still making calls for Women Speak Out for Peace and Justice. (In the 50s, she was marching to ban the bomb.)

Lady Emsworth's avatar

Oh, Doc! Thanks for the laugh!

P123Sunny's avatar

Must be fun getting ‘this many chances’… wow America

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

A retired psychiatrist said pretty much the same thing to me recently. Whatever causes normal people from refraining to say such things seems totally absent.

Janet's avatar

No filters left on site.

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

Just like the Reflecting Pool.

Kevin Rice's avatar

This morning was a 6km walk. Seriously. It ended up another 500m or so in elevation. There, it was BBQ and water and beer. A few hours later, a bus takes us back to the hotel (at least close). I would share pics, but GeoCities won't let me. Everyone got a half rack of ribs, baked potato, grilled zucchini, and more. If I travelogue this, I'll share.

Lady Emsworth's avatar

I THINK he meant to say he'd get a MoH with his two boys.

The threesome would probably be reserved for Melania and Ivanka. . . .

Robert Eckert's avatar

Melania? He'd want to be with Arnold Palmer and Ivanka.

Lady Emsworth's avatar

Thank you, Robert.

Now I have to go and scrub my brain. . .

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

"I'll give them the congressional Medal of Honor award for ....something." OMG.

SethTriggs's avatar

I have literally had more people in my party at Mother's Day brunch this year.

Joyce's avatar

I'm by myself in my house right now, which is therefore 100% more populated than the Mall ShitShow.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Where's Sean Spicer when trump needs him, insisting on the largest crowds ever?

It's also amusing to see the Fox liars keep on flogging their false narratives of throngs of attendees. I figure it must be soul-sucking to do so, then I remember they have no souls.

David M Marko's avatar

It wouldn't shock me if Fox put their set in front of a green screen with an enormous AI generated crowd backdrop.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I've seen more people gape at a rotting whale carcass that washed ashore. Of course, rotting whale carcass could be applied to him.

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

Was one of them RFK Jr.?

HI2thDoc's avatar

Was Bobby Brainworm there with his chainsaw?

Lol, don't stand too close to that rotting whale carcass.

I have more people at my house right now and there’s two of us. Four if you count the pets

Douglas Paul Truhlar's avatar

Dopey don would count the pets for his grift but not count them as cabinet members, it’s the wiesenburg accounting system.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

No self-respecting pet would want to go to this. And most dogs want to go anywhere.

Tish Grier's avatar

With less restrictions and better food, too!

Mateo gee's avatar

You would think fox would pivot and broadcast with a different backdrop by now but Nope! Just like the sinking MAGA ship they are doubling down!

rlritt's avatar

Does anyone know if the individual state presentations are air conditioned? That's where the people could be.

Paula Dean's avatar

A woman attendee who got heatstroke there said most of the tents are not air-conditioned. She went to the baptism tent to use their pool to cool off...and still had to go to the medical tent for electrolytes.

I'm just shaking my head over the baptism tent. So inappropriate for a celebration of our founding! The first pilgrims here were escaping religious persecution! FFS.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Aaaand she's still a MAGA

Sharon C Storm's avatar

According to a video I saw last evening, there is no air conditioning anywhere within the confines of the ‘fair’. A woman suffering heat exhaustion was taken to a tent where there was a pool for baptizing people. She got into the pool to cool down.

Jan Moon's avatar

I wonder if she was baptized by default.

Gayna's avatar
22mEdited

What in the actual fuck is a baptizing pool doing at the Great American State Fair? Which state, pray tell, was proselytizing for Jesus? God, this is bizarro world.

On another note I wonder 💭 f fuckhead is still planning to give his longest blather ever tomorrow just to show he can. Fingers crossed he dons his uniform and marches out onto the 107 degree mall and keels over from heat stroke and is doa . Thats what I call a celebratory event.

Cyndi's avatar

They are more like booths, with fronts open to the Mall. I doubt it. And even if they are, the power keeps going out.

Susan P Thatcher's avatar

They probably fear his wrath if they leave the site

Mateo gee's avatar

Kind of a damned if you do damned if you don’t situation. I can’t imagine showing the empty mall is making dear leader happy either. Probably should just AI some folks milling about in there with 12 fingers and 3 hands. 😆

Susan P Thatcher's avatar

Waiting to see : 1) how this is Biden and/or Antifas fault, 2) how much Obama's big party in Chicago outdraws it.

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

Thanks for the Mother Jones video. It similar to how I describe having to review a terrible movie: it's something I get paid to see so that you don't have to.

Rachel C's avatar

At least today they could use the Heat Dome as an excuse. But then donnie will want to blow it up for messing with his fair👹

Linda A's avatar

Anyone who is there at 10:35 got the privilege of extreme heat, no shade and jet fighters flying overhead with their thunderous engines. When they weren't flying low, they were circling overhead doing loop de loops. What a great idea over a city of millions.

Wendymae's avatar

Oh man, I am so enjoying this party!

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

I would never put up with all the hoops you have to jump through to get in. At our county fair, they may glance in your bag but that's about it. And there are LOTS of exhibition barns that are .... air conditioned! I get annoyed when they make you walk out of the way to get into something because of fencing, but if you wouldn't take in what you need, I wouldn't go. I'm annoyed enough that last year FreshFest was not letting people walk into the event: you had to go to another location and take a bus — one block. You could've walked it in 5 minutes. I waited for the bus for 40 minutes. Hey FreshFest people – what's the deal?

Chris Hierholzer's avatar

I'd get some booze and celebrate.

Stephen Brady's avatar

But, I'm sure that when he delivers his polemic tomorrow night he will have crowds far bigger than Obama... to breathe the hot, polluted air just to bask in his orange stinky magnificence.

Stuart's avatar

Donny made his flunkies delete their social media posts! how deliciously infantile is that?

I don't know... probably on a level with hiding the name of the Kennedy Center behind a tarp.

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

Haven't seen it in the news lately. Is the tarp still up?

Sher''s avatar

Well. Qe can rest assured that folks snapped them up way before his minions had time to hit delete!

LoveMuley's avatar

I thought everything was permanent with social media. Like no one took screen shots before the posts were deleted? So disappointing!! 😆

Bren M's avatar

Jack Smith needs to be put in charge of the American Nuremberg’s.

Joyce's avatar

I watched his interview on Deadline White House....Even as Smith was being cordial and pleasant with Nicolle Wallace, his laser eyes still could burn holes in the MS-NOW set. That guy must be fucking terrifying in a courtroom.

Kathleen Weber's avatar

If Jack Smith was a dog, he'd be a combination pit bull, Doberman, and dire wolf. One bite and you DIE!

Cassandrascat's avatar

In 2021, we got a Fed Soc adjacent AG. If there’s a next time, we need a prosecutor who’s working for US. We need the Senate, too, because Rs won’t vote to confirm anyone who’s going to look into what they’ve done.

rlritt's avatar

But sadly, I can see the Democrats just saying let's move on. There is no point dredging up the past.

serenity's avatar

I can see the corporate beholden democrats doing that but eff that. Just letting it go will embolden all these jerks to do it again, only worse. No one seems to get consequences for their actions anymore. We have to get back to a place where people just don't shrug at wrongdoing. None of this is normal but it's starting to look normal because it's so constantly thrust in our faces.

rlritt's avatar

Well you have start emailing your Representative in Congress and your Senators. I do fairly often and always get a response (from an aide) but the correspondence gets noticed. If we all send emails demanding Trump be prosecuted, even the squeamish Democrats in office will have to do something.

Mary Lou Williams's avatar

Any Dem incumbent needs to have to promise to prosecute these miscreants to the fullest extent of the law. Gerald Ford's pardon of Nixon is a reminder of what can happen if not promised to prosecute.

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

We can't allow that. We made that mistake after Bush Jr. and started way too late on Trump 45.

We need a non-politicized DOJ that relies on the law and the facts to systematically prosecute. Some of the criminals may get away with it, but not all of them should. The precedent is Watergate.

Sharon Hudnall's avatar

Mike Johnson said he fully anticipates Trump, his family, and their accomplice associates to face federal prosecution if the GOP loses the House and Senate in November. Knives out!

Heather Horning Mohr's avatar

How they incriminate themselves! Next under the bus, line up, fools!

Terri Nighswonger's avatar

The Dems sure as hell better not turn wus.

David M Marko's avatar

Alas, much to my chagrin, I concur. Most of these miscreants should definitely made to suffer some sort of consequence for the ruination of this country they helped create. Unfortunately, they will become lobbyists and write books and continue to profit off of their crimes.

Mary Lou Williams's avatar

That is why we must track the miscreants and the companies that hire them like who hired Pam Bondi? Put a hex on that company/firm. Isn't there a law that these people can't be lobbyist for a certain time after leaving office? Silly me that that is not enforced.

Michael Guenon's avatar

I think that is why a few are losing their primaries.

Richard's avatar

I agree with you 100%!

Susan Niemann's avatar

Tomorrow would be the perfect day for the felon to croak. Then EVERYONE would have a reason to celebrate. Although it would be awesome to let Jack Smith have his way.

This shit is getting old.

Stay hydrated, friends.

RZolu's avatar

I said the exact same thing! Can you IMAGINE the celebration? The cheering, the horns honking the dancing in the streets!

Especially where he's supposed to "speak" in 100+ degrees? Come ON blood clot, do your thing!!!

Diana's avatar

You too Susan ‼️🥰

HI2thDoc's avatar

Why the transparent tote bag and other restrictions? Isn't this 'Murikkka, where MAGAs want ever'body to be carrying, locked and loaded at all times?

Hey--it's not an elementary school classroom, you know!

Ooof. Or a shopping mall or movie theater, where antifa commie atheist pool-vandalizing Muslim socialist woke terrorists are stalking

Mary Lou Williams's avatar

Speaking of pool vandalizing I don't see a report on all the governmental black limos driving next to the Reflection Pool after the initial announcement of completion where there was a warning not to do it.

HI2thDoc's avatar

MS Now said the motorcade drove THROUGH the pool after it was painted and before it was filled.

Frank Nuts's avatar

Excellent point Doc!

rlritt's avatar

Yeah. I mean people can carry guns everywhere now because that's their right.

Joyce's avatar

Well, except for NRA conventions.

rlritt's avatar

That is really unbelievable. It tells me that gun owners dont trust people with guns. Maybe they realize they are paranoid and unstable.

HI2thDoc's avatar

No, they don't

Richard's avatar

Mary Lou Williams's avatar

Too many will want to put the country out of misery by ending his reign of terror.

SethTriggs's avatar

Who but Maladministration 2.0 for your best fuckups? But hey, how could this sort of thing happen with someone who's well known as a two-bit chiseling conman who stiffs his contractors, right? Certainly THAT guy knows how to put on an event.

Apparently one of my local Republican Congresscritters decided to do a little puff PR spot on the Mall and it looked really sad and pathetic.

So I guess all that's left is for them to do the shelling of Washington, D.C. with the inordinate amount of fireworks, and terrorize the citizenry. So the racist carnival barker can have his boombooms.

Robert Eckert's avatar

He might end up doing the Full Nero and setting his capital city on fire. (Never go Full Nero!)

From Fox5. "Dangerous heat and the chance for isolated storms could affect Fourth of July fireworks across the Washington, D.C., region on Saturday." Poor Donny.

Paula Dean's avatar

Donny will be saved from humiliation if his Grand Finale is canceled. I was really looking forward to that...the chance of witnessing his heatstroke and choking on fireworks smoke. It's a great fantasy!

rlritt's avatar

You know he'd be watching from a specially built air conditioned booth.

Isn't he supposed to give an interminably long speech.

Robert Eckert's avatar

That's what he promised us! It's to show how manly he is.

Mary Lou Williams's avatar

Any residence with pets needs to leave town.

Heather Horning Mohr's avatar

On the bicentennial in1976 and again for the re-dedication of the Statue of Liberty, New York City turned into one big party. While watching fireworks for the statue at the harbor, a drunk Irish sailor leaned between my friend and me and said, “So, d’ya have this sort of thing here all the time, then?”

Let’s HAVE FUN AGAIN!

HI2thDoc's avatar

The regime-described largest fireworks show in history checks all the trump boxes:

The main purpose is to stroke his ego? Check

Needlessly lengthy and showy? Check

Wastes taxpayers money? Check

Causes environmental issues? Check

Endangers citizens? Check

Another job given to trump donors (Pyrotecnico)? Check

Business as usual, where something that should be dignified and meaningful is reduced to a crass stunt by the King of Chintz

Steve in SoCal's avatar

How many ppl will be killed or maimed by errant aerial shells? I'm thinking zero, as no one will show up.

HI2thDoc's avatar

How many with respiratory issues will be endangered by the particulate matter from all those shells? Lucky the weather will be hot and most will stay inside.

rlritt's avatar

In this weather normal cities would be canceling their fireworks show.

Eileen's avatar

I woke up this morning after having a dream during which I pleaded with the Democrats to get their messaging locked down in time for the midterms. The CORRUPTION , CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION- Trump is taking your money and buying palaces for himself is the way to go.

In fact, I think Democrats should do fundraisers with Corruption Bingo as the theme. It would be a cinch to fill a bingo card with all of Trump’s, his family’s and his cabinet’s self dealing corrupt schemes. The audience would be all the elderly who love bingo across the United States. I am 60 years old and I’ll admit it, I freaking love bingo. I would happily pay 10 bucks a card!

There would also be another bingo for the GenZ and younger crowd called. How many times and how many ways Trump and his administration have made women second class citizens. Shut up, piggy, etc.

Anyway, I am channeling Jon Ossoff, whom I credit with the ability to encapsulate the breath and simplicity of Trump‘s hand in your pocket, stealing your money and using it for utter bullshit. LFG!

RZolu's avatar

I'm so disappointed by the democrats messaging...are there as many of them in a grift themselves and that's why they're not speaking up? I certainly hope not, our side needs to dig out of this horrible Repugnican mess!

SarahRey16's avatar

We could have had a month long folklife festival planned by the real 250 committee and the Smithsonian but no— I heard the administration refused to grant the permits. They had awesome performances actually lined up ready to go. What a sourpuss.

devourerofpancakes's avatar

I saw that message from the Smithsonian employee and just wanted to cry. Why can't Trump leave well enough alone and just take the credit? I know, I know it's the grifting.
