Tangerine Twat is now also threatening another tariff on Norway because we’ve sent two – TWO – people to Greenland to participate in security measures. Other countries are affected too. Fuck him and everyone who stand with him.
(I promised myself after he won the election to curate my exposure to Trump-related news as much as possible, to shield myself, but it’s terribly difficult when it’s all over the airwaves).
Tangerine Twat
Tangerine Nightmare to sadly pun one of our favorite bands… I will forever have him connected with one of the worst days of my life: On January 20th, 2017 he became president the first time my mother died.
Sorry to hear that, Malte. I suppose world events like that become insignificant in the face of something so deeply personal, but it certainly didn’t ameliorate the circumstances.
I imagine that his “joke” about not even bothering to hold mid-terms was to dissuade people to vote at all. But surely he’s not clever enough to think of that possiblity. The sooner the world is rid of this stupid, capricious baby the better. I wouldn’t underestimate the real danger he poses. He’s like a four-year-old pyromaniac in a fireworks store.
Totally agree with what others here are saying about current world conditions. It doesn’t affect my sleep or anything (at least not yet), but sometimes when I wake up in the morning, thoughts about what Trump and his cronies (and Putin) are doing pop into my head, and then I go “Shit! What the f…!”. Not a great way to start your day 🙁 .
Related to what Graham wrote earlier about these things being worse than science fiction, these days I sometimes feel like I’ve been transported to some parallel universe.

Yes, indeed, but since that news broke later the day my reaction was nevertheless like “Not that as well!”…
Graham, I hope I count as one of your friends, but not a deranged one; but if in fact I AM deranged (for how would I know if I’m deranged?) I hope that at least I’m not in a position of power.
Tall, I can count my friends on the hands of one finger, and they (you) are both deranged, but thankfully your’e obviously not in a position of power otherwise you would have had the invoice police onto me and I’d be lying on a mattress soaked in other men’s piss, being pecked at by Franco’s pet vulture.
Just what the FUCK is the tangerine twat up to now? That latest tantrum about “not having to bother much about peace now” seeing as Thor didn’t allow him to get the Knobbly Piss Prize is the work of a top loony. Even Putin liked it, urging him to go ahead and grab Greenland. What a bunch of unbelievably moronic wankers the entire world is full of. All except MY deranged friends.
Careful! The turnips are falling from the roof! SQUAAAAWK!!!
Yes, every day is something outlandish from over there now. Every day. The Nobel committee is of course an independent award body, and has nothing to do with our prime minister or government. But to the twat, it’s all the same. Let’s not forget, this is the guy who says Denmark can’t lay claim to Greenland because “a boat landed there 500 years ago”. Hmmm, that bit about the boat sounds familiar. I think there’s even a great Vangelis score accompanying it.

Not to forget that there were already people when these boats landed… Btw, he has German ancestors and we won’t take him back 😉
Just read that Philip Glass has removed his new symphony’s premiere from the Kennedy Center:
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/philip-glass-kennedy-center-1236486116/“After thoughtful consideration, I have decided to withdraw my Symphony No. 15 “Lincoln” from the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts,” Glass wrote on social media. “Symphony No. 15 is a portrait of Abraham Lincoln, and the values of the Kennedy Center today are in direct conflict with the message of the Symphony. Therefore, I feel an obligation to withdraw this Symphony premiere from the Kennedy Center under its current leadership.”
Funny is this answer of the Kennedy Center PR:
“We have no place for politics in the arts, and those calling for boycotts based on politics are making the wrong decision,”
Since when have arts no place for politics!?
Indeed. What utter bollocks from those fucking hijackers of the Kennedy Centre. Good on Glass for doing that!
“We have no place for politics in the arts, and those calling for boycotts based on politics are making the wrong decision,”
OMG. I would expect something that stupid from Facebook trolls, but not from the spokesperson for an actual fucking arts center!! Where to even begin… Sigh.
And to chime in on this thread in general, the world events do effect me very profoundly. I also feel I have to check the news many times a day, and sort of prepare for the worst every time.
The sooner the orange turd takes his last breath the better, but another problem is that some of the people around him (Miller, Vance, Noem…) are just as revolting, but unfortunately not as stupid. Still, anything is probably better than this constant game of never knowing what to expect the next day, because the orange clown is such a constant ticking bomb. Will he actually attack an allied nation today? Maybe tomorrow? The fact that all of Europe has been kissing up to him up to this point makes me sick. It obviously has not worked in anyone’s favour. Dump only cares about himself, no matter what. On a light note: I’m glad we are seeing a change in tone, and that European leaders are much more confrontational now – finally.
I think Grump is physically and mentally uncapable of having any kind feelings of any sort, about another person. Not to mention he is normalising asshole behaviour on a scale like nobody has ever done before. How the hell are we supposed to teach our kids about anti-bullying when the world’s most mighty person is the worst bully and the most thoroughly sick bastard the world has ever seen?
