  • Donald Trump colours in US flag, gets it wrong


    Seriously?
    I am not delusional! Now if you'll excuse me, i'm gonna go dance with the purple wombat who's playing show-tunes in my coffee cup!

    • Almost as bad as him trying to sing the anthem... Naaa... This is worse. This country needs to correct pass wrongs and grow a back bone. Get rid of this orange toad.

      • I wonder if Trump would get the Russian flag right?

        • Interesting, btw.:
          The WH was preparing a statement regarding the death of McCain in which he was praised folr his heroism and his decaes of service.
          But it wasn't released to the poublic because Trump was opposed to it and told them that he himself would tweet a condoilence:

          https://edition.cnn.com/2018/08/26/p...eet/index.html

          Well, we know what minimalist standard template condolence he tweeted.
          Which, again, proves the small-minded and vengeful character of Trump, even extending his wish for revenge beyond the death of a person.
          (had Trump become pope, I am sure that he wouldn't be above doing something like a version 2.0 of the cadaber-synod on the corpses of papal predecessors he had a quarrel with)

            • I guess that also wasn't unexpctd from such a small mind as Trump:
              It is use to fly the flag at half-staff, after the demise of notable figures (like senators), until their funeral.

              Capitol memorial and other public building have thirs on half-staff in honour of McCain.
              The White Houses flag however already has returned to full-staff, just 48 hours after his death

              • The "Trump doesn't like McCain" hysteria is particularly amusing.

                  It's not hysteria. It's just a fact.

                Lets see:
                1. WH had an official announcement prepared in which McCains Hero-Status and his decade long service for the fatherland were mentioned. Trump overrode this and published, instead (and as only official condolence of the Trump government), some unpersonal thoughts and prayers - tweet
                2. Contrary to general use, the WH is full-flagged after just 48 hours ... instead of remaining half-flagged till the funeral (as it is usus and as other public governmental buildings do)

                It is quite clear that Donnie doesn't even have enough manners in order to rest his resentments / oversized ego long enough, to give a deceased decades long servant of the state the honor that is usual in this situation

                Even the political opponents of McCain honor him more than Donnie does (among them the last real president of the USA)

                      Vietnamese praise McCain.

                      Hopefully, when Trump's Pretorian guards turn on him, it will merit a one line mention on page 42... in the middle of an article on composting.
