  • How to suck up to Trump

    Everybody is learning that if you suck up to him, you can get whatever you want. He is SOOOOOOO easy.

    The latest example if FIFA
    They give him some made up first time ever Peace Prize, and all of a sudden he is demanding that American Football changes its name because Soccer already took it.

    Let's guess what the results would be if you asked Americans if Football needs to rename itself. We all know the answer to that one
    Keep on Civin'

    We have a long standing tradition at my family foundation, the Chang Family Trust. We have the very prestigious price for “Best President Ever”. Shall I announce that Trump is a finalist?

      Yeah, that "peace price" is a total joke. But Trump also got awarded a medal on top, for whatever

      FIFA Pres Infantino is pathetic.

          Handmelon is I believe the correct term.
          One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

            Only the most special statesmen get peace prizes from soccer leagues.

                So in another forum, I was having a discussion about Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson, and their relation ship with Hitler and fascism.
                It made me wonder, how will history record those who meet with tRump, fawn over him, and hand him 'tribute' - either rarities or (sometimes made up, one off) awards? Will history say they were MAGA followers, or simply trying to manipulate a powerful narcissist?
                I suspect it will depend upon individual's other words and deeds.
                And, let's face it, who will history remember anyway?​

                    A friend pointed out that if you peel back the gold on tRump's new 'FIFA peace medal' you have a chocolate inside...

                    Now I know why tRump likes Netanyahu's visits so much...​

                      I've always felt that American football shouldn't be called "football" when only one player on each team can kick the ball and then less than once per possession (on the average) at that.

                        Most (all?) United States National Parks require a small fee for entry, but there is a list of holidays when those fees are waived.

                        Trump's birthday is now on that list.

                        To make up for it, MLK Day and Juneteenth have been removed.

                        I wish to God this was the Onion...

                          American Rugby?

                          (then Canadian Football could be called Canadian American Rugby)
