if you didn’t believe that England hates Donald Trump already: the most recent news of his visit today is that the mayor of London approved protestors releasing a £16,000 Trump in-a-diaper balloon to fly 98ft above ground when he visits, and literally no British person is surprised. Welcome to London.
I’m literally not kidding
the people who are managing the balloon are called trump babysitters. I’ve never loved my country more.
i fucking love this country. Trust us to make the president feel welcome
the best part about this is that trump expected to have a royally welcome visit but as soon as he made an appearance, thousands of angry British people started chanting “fuck trump!” on repreat for hours.
UPDATE: Trump has managed to generate a bigger crowd than Obama did, but for all the wrong reasons. The entirety of London is filled with angry anti-trump protestors, to the point where he is refusing to make an appearance due to fear for his safety.
Here are some fucking awesome protest signs being shown today. I hope we’ve made you proud!
Trump is notorious for his “filing system”: when he is finished with a
piece of paper, he tears it into tiny pieces and throws it away, which
is fine if you’re a CEO (maybe), but is radioactively illegal under the
Presidential Records Act, because the President works for the public,
and is required by law to archive their official papers and save them
for public scrutiny.
White House staffers gave up on trying to explain this to Trump, who
just kept on tearing up everything, from official letters from Senators
to letters from constituents to notes and other paperwork.
The staffers – paid nearly $70,000 year – ended up with full-time jobs
retrieving scraps of paper from Trump’s trash-can and piecing them back
together with clear tape so they can be filed in the National Archives.
Some of these staffers were eventually fired; they’ve spoken to
Politico about their year in the Trump administration as paper-tapers.
Roy Moore Spokesman Ted Crockett: Muslims can’t serve because you have to swear in on a Bible. Jake Tapper: There’s no law that says you have to swear in on a Bible. Crockett: *shitshitshitshitshitTHINKMANTHINK* Tapper: You do know that right? Crockett: *justfinishstrongmanyoucandothis* WELL DONALD TRUMP
I saw this live. I was stunned
Is that true !?! You can swear on the quran for the inauguration to become the president of the United States ?! Guess I have some homework
Yes, because America is not a Christian nation. It was never supposed to have a state religion. As long as you’re a United States citizen and you meet the age and service requirements for President of the United States, you have every right to run.
UPDATE on HOMEWORK:
This what I found( cut and pasted ):
“Theodore Roosevelt did not use a Bible when taking the oath in 1901. Both John Quincy Adams and Franklin Pierce swore on a book of law, with the intention that they were swearingon the constitution. Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in on a Roman Catholic missal on Air Force One”
I had no idea, I like the swearing on the book of law. Like @thunder-the-great said, we aren’t supposed to have a state religion.
