There are only two things that will lift the chains of a Saturday morning hangover off me. One is a tall cold Bloody Mary. The other is Tiedrich.

That AI fuckery—“Dear Leader with the blackest black people you can find”—is pathetic, but the bbq theme suggests to me where I’ve seen that donkey-duck jacking dance. Doesn’t Rumpo the Dancing Clown look exactly like an animated neon sign of a dancing pig outside some really serious bbq restaurant?

Expand full comment

Not surprising and everything that phony fuck displays is fraudulent, fake or it never happened. However that ridiculous orange turd dance of him doing his version of the tubesteak boogie is still part of his playbook until he forgets the moves or won't be capable of any more soft shoe bullshit.

What the actual fuck is a Black Card? Is there some magical door it opens that leads to a secret BBQ party with palm trees and people with too many fingers? 🙄

Witches sneaking around in Virginia??? Seriously? Witches have taken over Monterrey? Hmmm, I'll have to get my broom out, fly over and take a look. I'm in need of some more witchy stuff and California can be cool. Sounds like my kind of place... ffs.

The dancing thing... how silly can one man (and I use that term loosely) look.

So it doesn't actually "do" anything, like a key card or credit card. It's just a piece of cardboard.

It’s a coke cutter, if you’re into that, otherwise it’s just a fucking piece of metal with a picture of a deranged lunatic on it. Utterly worthless.

Utterly worthless? I'm starting to think that my diploma from Trump University might have the same value. But I still have some Trump Vodka that I use to clean my stovetop, so there's that.

How sad....🤷‍♀️

There's always the Apple titanium card -- you can at least buy semi-useful things with it, and a very few of them aren't even wildly overpriced. You might even be able to use the Apple card as a shuriken, which makes TWO things the Apple card can do that TFG's black card (which I REALLY doubt is titanium, anyway) will not.

What the black card WILL do is make sure everyone knows just how much of a dumbass and a sucker you are... even more so than you'd be if you went around flaunting your Apple titanium card all the time... :)

🤣 might work but I don't have apple anything. 🤷‍♀️

No, no — it’s metal, not pasteboard. So I suppose you could use it as an emergency screwdriver or something. Ooo! Ooo! You could put an edge on all four sides and learn to throw it like a shuriken! 😂

First time I saw this grift. Last one was a pen that he “uses to sign documents “. $20. Made in China for pennies, and we’ve seen him scrawl with his ever present sharpie for what seems like ages. I like the bobble head best - it’s what a head does when there is no f—g brain in it. The flag needs to go, though. He’s humping it like he humps every one and everything. That part really pisses me off. I’m ashamed to say that I haven’t flown my flag or worn my flag t-shirt because I don’t want ANYONE to think that I support the f-ing moron. :(

Is Eric the one responsible for going to Goodwill to buy used suits they can cut up for the suit grift?

I fly my flag on July 4th and that day only. Think of all the American stuff they've soiled. The term "Huge" is fucked. Thumbs up gesture is fucked. The flag is fucked. Any red hat is fucked.

On the bright side, since it does nothing you'll be less disappointed when it doesn't.

At least he groomed his cultists to accept failure with open wallets.

Seems like it is a bank card, like Visa or Mastercard. Of course the dupes get to pay for it…. And I imagine they then have to get the card activated by a real bank. Otherwise it is a useless metal rectangle

Well, it *looks* like a high-end credit card, but as far as I can tell, it’s just a symbol of your allegiance to Der Farter and has no functionality.

::What the actual fuck is a Black Card?::

American Express issues them—officially they're called "Centurion Cards", and according to The Bouffant of All Knowledge Wikipedia:

"It is reserved for the company's wealthiest clients who meet certain net worth, credit quality, and spending requirements on its gateway card, the Platinum Card.... [It is] minted out of anodized titanium, laser-engraved, and accented with stainless steel. The card reports to credit bureaus and does not maintain a pre-set credit limit. It is considered a status symbol among the affluent."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centurion_Card

That's the functional Black Card -- we've been talking about the Trump Black Card, which is just another geegaw offered up to the rubes to part them from their money, in support of an alleged billionaire.

Expand full comment

Ah.

That I have no clue about, other than to say if Trump is selling it? I wouldn't trust it to pay for drive-through at McDonald's!

Expand full comment

That's the thing -- it's basically just a "I Love Trump" membership card, like the sort of thing you'd send 2 boxtops and 10 cents off for to join the "Roy Rodgers Riders Club". It doesn't *do* anything, other than separate you from a minimum $100 donation.

Expand full comment

Yes, but it's got the same name as "The Rich Guy's Card", so if you pay for it you can feel rich, too! 😂 🙄 🤦‍♂️

I confess I'm wondering how deep the scam goes—is it just a Membership Card to The Trump Fan Club? Or has Trump somehow found a disreputable financial institution to "guarantee" the card so every time some sucker uses it, they get hit with astronomical interest rates so Donnie can skim off the top...?

Probably it is the quid pro quo for the Russian owned porn-financing bank in the Caribbean, that the investors in "truth social" were connected to that lent TS money in an 'emergency loan'

"The situation led Trump Media to take emergency loans, including from an entity called ES Family Trust, which opened an account with Paxum Bank, a small bank registered on the Caribbean island of Dominica that is best known for providing financial services to the porn industry.

Through leaked documents, the Guardian has learned that ES Family Trust operated like a shell company for a Russian-American businessman named Anton Postolnikov, who co-owns Paxum Bank and has been a subject of a years-long joint federal criminal investigation by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) into the Trump Media." merger.https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/03/trump-media-es-family-trust-2022-loans

Holy Mike Johnson is a huge bag full of hypocrisy, his moral compass madly spinning in all directions at once. And how does Donny Jr know there are all these New Yorkers giving Trump a thumbs up hidden under their coats (in our present 85+ degree temperatures? Trump as usual lies about how barricades have been put up around the courthouse to deny his cultists the opportunity to fawn over Dear Leader. In fact, there are no impediments for anyone walking by--if they can worm their way through the gaggle of Congressional sycophants gathered together to whine. And one more thing: George Conway reports that another court watcher brought in a thermometer to test Trump's constant whining about sitting in a freezer. The temperature in the courtroom was balmy.

Thumbs up? Um, I think it's one of the other four digits.

1. The fake photos of Agent Orange crowds never fails to make me laugh. As did Sean Spicer’s insistence that Trump’s inauguration crowd was bigger than Obama’s

2. Witch Hunter has never been to Monterey. It’s a beautiful town with cute houses that are very small for the price they’re worth. Maybe he was turned into the eye of Newt Gingrich so we can excuse this lapse.

3. That video of Cokehead Jr was my morning guffaw. MAGAs aren’t shy about their support, or else why would they wear bright red hats? Someone hiding their hands is doing something they shouldn’t be doing in public.

I'm in rural Virginia. More Hung Cao: Rural Virginians are again disrespected by GOP Senate candidate Hung Cao, who doubled down claiming that rural voters are just too inconvenient to bother with.

To contrast, Sen. Tim Kaine visited Tazewell and Abingdon just last week (wayyy down in the SW corner) to take questions from constituents regarding the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Cao: "I’ll sit here [behind the camera] all night if you want to, but for me to drive six and a half hours down to Abingdon or something like that and to stand there with four other dudes and to have 30 seconds to answer questions, it’s just ridonkulous, it’s just crazy."

Indeed he did call the Staunton News-Leader a podunk newspaper. The N-L is part of the USA Today Network. Per Wikipedia, the News Leader was founded in 1904 (with heritage dating to 1890), with circulation 6,146 Daily 6,721 Sunday (as of 2021).
