No matter how batshit insane whatever my imagination can conjure up is, I can guarantee it'll be a lot worse.

i miss not being surprised by much.

we'll probably find out he had a private mcdonalds installed at the white house that gets its "beef" from an unethical mortician.

so like that's about how extreme of the batshittery i'm expecting is.

The United States finally has an answer to Stalin.

Stalin was both effective and relatively efficient. This dumbass is neither. More like whatever the knockoff of a Temu Stalin would be.

And to clarify, yes, I'm saying that even Temu is too high quality to be carrying anything Trump branded.

Efficient? I think Stalin probably could have managed with killing many fewer people.
