T is for Turd [View all]

That is what I will remember from America's 250th semiquincentennial...



...only an imbecilic, insane fake gold-plated traitor turd would plan a memorial to himself for having done absolutely nothing to help anyone else ever in his entire miserable self-pitying existence.

From Golf, cows and a fake triumphal arch: Welcome to Trump’s MAGA fair for America’s 250th anniversary, a review of the event by Iker Seisdedos in El Pais:

Trump also signed a separate executive order on “restoring truth and sanity to American history.” This has amounted to an ideological purge of cultural institutions, with U.S. history reframed to ignore issues such as racism or the genocide of Indigenous peoples. Those uncomfortable truths are almost entirely absent from the fair. Amid so much unrelentingly positive history, it was not possible to find any mention, for example, of the civil rights movement or the empowerment of Indigenous communities in the 1960s and 1970s. There are, of course, prominent Black figures on display — and some Indigenous ones, though fewer — but they appear chiefly as icons of music or sport.
