No no no. They have to come inside the wall. Where we can get them hooked on cheap fast food and freedom. And then they're stuck with us.

Whoa. I just figured it out. Trump's criminally inept coronavirus response is his Stable Genius strategy to build the wall and have Mexico (and Canada) pay for it. They'll do it to keep our plague-ridden asses out.

Ironically, a wall made from corona bottles would be structurally better than the thing Trump comissioned.

In case Trump's deadly incompetence has overshadowed how small and petty he is, here's a two-for-one:

When Trump said the New York Yankees had invited him to throw the first pitch next month, he had not actually been invited, according to a new report in the New York Times.

His public announcement came as a surprise to both the White House staff and the Yankees, the paper reported, citing a person with knowledge of the president’s schedule. The president was reportedly irritated that Anthony Fauci was due to throw the first pitch at the season opener between the Yankees and the Washington Nationals when he falsely announced he was schedule to throw a pitch.

:lol:


Meanwhile, on Twitter, POTUS is focused on what really matters:
So disgusting to watch Twitter’s so-called “Trending”, where sooo many trends are about me, and never a good one. They look for anything they can find, make it as bad as possible, and blow it up, trying to make it trend. Really ridiculous, illegal, and, of course, very unfair!

No I mean financially.

It was an open secret in 2015 that Twitter was insolvent and had 4, maybe 5 years to live before it would be sold off to VC jackals who almost certainly would have liquidated the company. The company's fortunes were reversed practically overnight because of Trump. They literally cannot afford to lose him.
They'd sooner turn themselves into Trumper and just become Trump's personal soapbox than ban him.

Yeah. Twitter's imminent demise was one of the most talked about topics in the tech world in late 2014 to early 2015. The election changed it up completely.
