The picture of the white house in front of the white house somehow gives me a powerful message: everything in this place is fake, nothing is well thought out.

Like he wanted to have his redneck show in front of the house and then someone told him "uh sir we can't actually see the white house from there, there's all your UFC stuff in front of it". "Oh. Meh, put a picture".

    As a hick, please don't call this Redneck it's below even our standards on average and also tends to at least be cheap. Call it classless white trash profligacy.

    He is merely aspiring to redneckdom.

    He is fundamentally incapable of understanding any breed of redneck culture, with maybe the sole exception of the ones who go yuppie and develop a complete lack of taste. But who am I kidding few if any of my kin have even the mildest respect for themselves.

    Is that a picture of the white house on scaffolding?

    No, there's a scaffold in front of the WH to support the asinine UFC fights tonight (and the stands for those). It's a temporary structure, theoretically (though of course, Dear Leader has floated the idea "as a joke" of just keeping it in place permanently "for other events".)

    My non-american mind failed to understand why a picture of seemingly the white house is infront of the white house?

    Exactly what I was thinking about. President Camacho approves.

    Camacho understood there was a problem, he found the most competent person to solve that problem, promoted him and gave him the resources to solve the problem, and managed to solve that existantial problem this way. Sounds nothing like what the Trump administration would ever do.

    The guys who created Idiocracy should create a documentary style “prequel” showing how Trump leads us down the path to Idiocracy.

    “I mean, in a way Idiocracy kind of looks optimistic right now,” Mike Judge tells The Daily Beast by phone from his Los Angeles office.

    Someone else mentioned that he also hired the most qualified person and provided the resources to solve an existential problem.

    Yup. He was stupid, but knew when to listen to others. He cared about the country even though he fucked up along the way, and openly chose to listen to people he at least assumed were smarter and knew more than him.

    President Camacho might have been an idiot, but he knew how to allocate ideas, and knew what he didn't know when smarter people came around.

    Some countries have universal healthcare paid by their tax dollars instead of roller rink cheeto's circus.

    Some countries have no homeless because their tax dollars help the citizenry instead of lining the orange criminal's pockets.

    Some countries feed their children so that no child goes hungry in the midst of plenty.

    Some countries don't have a fucking fascist shitbag lying and stealing and grabbing anything not nailed down.

    To be fair, even before the orange shitbag, America didn’t address those things and instead funneled money into a few different shitbag’s & criminal’s pockets.

    If anything orange shitbag is a good rep for what the U.S. be like for decades if not centuries.

    Orange shitbag is a symptom of systemic ineptitude of America. But even if he's just a symptom he's like massive rectal bleeding or gangrene is a symptom of something more serious rather than a runny nose.

    His second term is entirely the result of the democrats arrogantly ignoring the rot while trying to go back to normal. And they're going to it again in 2028.

    I was agreeing with you. "Orange shitbag is a symptom of systemic ineptitude of America." You are correct. That ineptitude that includes democrats and the failure to prosecute him for his crimes when Biden was in office.

    Of course there were criminals in office prior to him, but never to this extent - the entire operation from stem to stern is packed full of thugs, mobsters, and outright criminals. Adding to the problem is him working for putin and in lockstep with every other right wing fascist dictator on the planet.

    Almost as if planned...

    In Rome, and other empires, when an Emperor was this egregiously bad, they would not only forcibly depose him, but also tear down all of his statues, works, scratch out his name from documents and dedications, and consign his memory to the garbage bin of history.

    For all of their faults, they appeared to have far more courage than our current populations.

    I'm never one to condone the death of people very much, but I wish nothing more than for Trump to die on camera like when Charlie Kirk got shot. I want the world to be able to watch, rewind, and watch again. I don't need him to die slowly in hospital, I want there to be absolutely zero chance the right could pretend 8.5 billion people didn't watch him bleed out on a sidewalk.

    I actually am hoping more for a Khaddafi or Mussolini type of death. I want a huge mob with "rude implements" in their hands to bludgeon him to death on the steps of the Senate. I would consider that to be most appropriate. Equally appropriate would then be mobs hunting down his administration, enablers, donors, influencers, and some followers. Make it brutal, crude, painful, and bloody. Make the memory of it last two thousand years. Make it so crushingly final that the rest of his idiotic followers will weep for their fallen God in the throes of oppression which follows for all those generations.

    And I haven't even yet begun to express my utter revulsion and loathing for him and his followers.

    At the risk of sounding like Theodor Adorno, I've been saying that a classless society is uncomfortably close to a society without class.

    Anyway, did they at least put a shark in that pool they're jumping over? Pulling a Fonz?
