Two equally serious world leaders

Remember that time Donald Trump had been president for barely five minutes and figured a really good way to assert his newfound authori-tah would be to make phone-yells at Malcolm Turnbull, prime minister of Australia, which is (geopolitical fact) one of America’s strongest allies? Trump yelled at Turnbull about refugees and then really showed Turnbull his anus by bragging about how big his Electoral College win was. Turnbull was obviously very impressed, and the White House’s excuse for one of the first of Trump’s many presidential fuck-ups was that it was like FIVE PM (not kidding!), which meant he was far too sleepy and full of diaper-poo to do proper presidenting.

Obviously Turnbull continues to be very impressed with Trump, who is making good on his promise to restore international respect to America, hahahahahaha we can’t even type that with a straight face. Literally every democratically elected leader in the world (and probably most of the authoritarian fucksticks) thinks Trump is a L-O-S-E-R, and Turnbull has been caught on tape expressing those thoughts! He was at a thing called the Mid Winter Ball, which sounds like some kind of version of America’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, except for how it’s not aired for public consumption.

Until now! Some video/audio has “leaked,” and oh boy, Malcolm Turnbull was teasing Donald Trump in the Australian language!

The Donald and I, we are winning and winning in the polls! We are winning so much! We are winning like we have never won before! We are winning in the polls! We are! We are! Not the fake polls. Not the fake polls! They’re the ones we’re not winning in. We’re winning in the real polls. You know, the online polls! They are so easy to win!

It’s funny because this is literally how Trump talks, minus the Australian sounds.

I know that! Did you know that? I kind of know that. I know that! They are SO easy to win.

A lot of people don’t know Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. Did you know that? Not many people know that. I just learned that!

I have this Russian guy … Believe me, it’s true. IT IS TRUE!

UH-OH. The Australian news guy reporting in the video above said Trump MIGHT NOT think that Russia joke was very funny (because it’s true), but Vladimir Putin might. Haw haw, wonder what old Vladimir is up to … OH look here! Putin is just trolling America by saying maybe he will give James Comey political asylum in Russia like a common Edward Snowden. That fucker.

Reached for comment, the American embassy in Australia was like “pfffffft,” because what are they going to do? Try to defend Donald Trump? We highly doubt career diplomats at American embassies are like “Oh please do not make fun of our president, as he is a very good and truthful and serious person. Just read his Twitter! Wait no, don’t do that.”

Anyway, this is just good stuff. We hate how much we enjoy laughing along with world leaders dunking on Trump, but we DO enjoy it, so fuck off. Just be patient, world — we will make him Not President anymore as soon as we are Constitutionally able!

    Conservatives were like “the world doesn’t respect Obama, they think he’s a f**king joke because he is. Trump will get America’s respect back by showing people they can’t push us around.”

    Now pretty much everywhere except Russia is demonstrating an utter lack of respect for the President, and the conservatives’ explanation is that the whole world is too liberal. The only places that aren’t liberal are Russia and theocratic Islamist states / ISIS. So of course, they’re the ones whose lead we should follow.

      Remember when the National Review crowd all fainted dead away in unison because President Obama was photographed in the Oval Office with his suit jacket off? (And the suit was the wrong color! it was the suit that was the wrong color, sure, that was what they meant! really!) And Rush Limbaugh, that paragon of taste and virtue, had the vapors because President Obama put his feet up on the desk, and never, ever, ever before had a [black] president put his feet up on the desk?

      Now they have Donnie and Dignity. It was all supposed to be so wonderful–it must trouble them so much when others laugh, roll their eyes, and say unkind things. No wonder their response to yesterday’s appalling horror show in Virginia was to amp up their demands for a ban on the First Amendment. Ban words, not guns. Free Speech Is The Enemy.

      • Michael Smith

        Exactly, they would much rather ban the weapon of the intelligent than of the brainless.

        To demonstrate further their brainlessness, conservatives on Facebook continue to gush over the restoration of dignity to the White House. Especially regarding this beautiful, classy, patriotic first lady, a somewhat grumpy foreign fashion model with a thick accent of whom there are nude pictures available, but that’s not relevant. She’s still better than that disgusting, America-hating cow, who graduated from Harvard Law, is a born and raised American, and who attended the role of the First Lady with enthusiasm and passion, but that’s not relevant.

        • disqus_lWwzrwNaw6

          The Republicans’ endlessly slimy and thuggish attacks on Mrs. Obama and the First Daughters remain completely odious and unforgivable. I will not retaliate with commentary about Melania, whose opportunistic marriage has been packed with such unintended consequences, or Barron, a minor child. But the memory of the kinds of things snickering, malevolent Republicans said about the former First Family still burns.

          • Courser_Resistance

            No shit. But honestly, I’ve never once poked fun at any Official’s kids, ever. I’ve always thought it would be a personal nightmare to be under ‘surveillance’ 24/7 as a teen. They’re ALL awkward years.

    • AnnieGetYerFun

      I accidentally ended up in a comments section of some news story the other day about Saudi Arabia doing their best to win over Trump. The very first comment was an all caps scream about how Obama was a traitor and a thug and how the Saudis hated him blah blah more treason yada yada, but now Trump has restored dignity to our country and we should be proud of how the Saudis have embraced him because it proves how awesome he is.

      I just… I mean… I feel like my brain sort of fell out of my head. I thought it was generally widely known that the Saudis may be our allies, but they are not our friends?

      • YoBunnyBunny

        Why the hell should we give a damn if the Saudis hated Obama? Diplomacy and what not aside, fuck them!!!

    It is now painfully clear that Mueller has opened the ballgame on the Trump organization’s entire business model, which always has been aromatic but which now has become entangled with the intelligence community, the institutions of government, and the national interest, as interpreted by Robert Mueller. He isn’t some roofing specialist that you can stiff and then drag through the courts until he can’t afford the trip any more. He isn’t someone you can scare off with your usual gang of billable-hour button men. He isn’t some dingy Russian banker who can float you a loan to tide you over. He is honest and respected and relentless, and the only way you’re going to get rid of him is to fire him. In a way, the country is daring you to do that, just to see if you have the stones for what comes next, and (possibly) as the last excuse it needs to insist on a new president. Go ahead. Make our day.

            the whole festering crew of trumps remind me of straw in that Jon Scieszka story, “Straw and Matches”

            “It was the end of summer vacation. Straw had done everything he could think of. He was bored. So he went over to play with someone he had been warned to stay away from.

            “Let’s play checkers,” said Straw.

            “Okay, I’m the red ones I get to move first I get two moves and you get one,” said Matches.

            “Forget it,” said Straw. “Let’s play ping-pong instead.”

            “Okay I get the good paddle you stand on that side I get to serve first and you have to close one eye,” said Matches.

            “Never mind,” said Straw. “Maybe we should just watch TV.”

            “Okay you sit over there on the floor I’ll sit on the couch I get the remote and we have to watch my favourite video,” said Matches.

            “I think I hear my mom calling,” said Straw. “I’d better go.”

            Moral: Don’t play with matches.”

    Moar OT:
    “President Donald Trump suggested Thursday that Rep. Steve Scalise is in worse condition than many initially realized.

    Speaking from the White House, Trump called the Louisiana congressman a “greater fighter” but indicated the situation remains very serious.

    “It’s been much more difficult than people even thought at that time,” Trump said. “He’s in some trouble.”

    The Republican lawmaker was treated at a Washington hospital Wednesday after a single rifle shot struck his hip during a shooting attack at a GOP congressional baseball practice in suburban Virginia. His doctors indicated Scalise suffered internal wounds and fractured bones, and was due for additional surgery.

    Trump, who visited Scalise at the MedStar Washington Hospital Center on Wednesday evening, expressed optimism that Scalise would eventually recover.

    “He’s going to be OK, we hope,” Trump said.”

          Yeah, I have regular old insurance through my employer and my deductible was $3,200. For the whole family, it was 5k. I hit the family deductible in March.

    • BosGrl

      Why would he add “we hope”? What a jerk. Obviously cares nothing about Scalise’s family.

    • So the slaughter of thousands of innocent people over the years has absolutely no effect on these sub-humans but let somebody shooted at some rich old white men and suddenly it’s all HOPEY CHANGEY and FINALLY HEALED OUR DIVIDED NATION?

      I forgot all those other shooting were FAKE but this one was the REAL DEAL.

    • miss_grundy

      Not only does he trip over his feet, he trips over his tongue. Who told this asshat to make that kind of statement? That kind of statement only increases the anxiety for Scalise’s family. Jeez, this guy is an ass.

    Obstruction of justice is probably the dumbest crime. Only dumb people either 1) try to obstruct justice or 2) fail at obstructing justice. He did both.

    • clairence

      not yet. save it for the indictment phase at least.

  • Jenny

    Lol @ Nikki Haley. “the world knows we’re back, and leading.”

    Leading the clown parade of the circus, maybe. Our president and his cabinet of idiots are an international joke.

    • Robbertjan Brandenburg

      The two biggest late night shows in the Netherlands always have a segment showing the funniest and news worthy clips about halfway of the shows. 75% are about ridiculing trump and the administration.

    • cmd resistor

      Maybe she meant to say Bleating.

    • proudgrampa

      That display of his cabinet going around the table thanking him and praising him was pretty damn disgusting.

    • clairence

      showing the world what it really means to “lead” from behind.

  • Ilgattomorte

    You know, one has to wonder if Trump would be so cruelly mocked if he were White …
    … or any other color found in nature, for that matter.

  • Flashman

    “Donald Trump was the butt of his jokes…” Haha, Aussie broadcaster, nicely played.

  • Great. Now Trump will nuke Australia and the world will be overrun with giant mutant death animals.

    • Mildred Broxon

      Giant mutant marsupial death animals! Which, as we all know, are weirder and worser.

      • AnnieGetYerFun

        You know that the platypuses will be in on it. Fortunately, Trump can probably be convinced to grab a few before he realizes that they aren’t what he thought. And are poisonous.

      I still hold out hope that someone has traded his nuclear football for a fake one – you know, like how parents get that Playskool kitchen set for their kids so the kids can pretend to cook without burning down the house?

    • laughingnome

      New band name!!

    • wait! what?

      Hyooge Pepe death cane toads.

      • H0mer0

        I thought Pepe was a frog, not a toad and what’s Pepe doing with a name associated with a talking bird from the Enchanted Tiki Room at Disneyland?

        Oh wait, Pepe Le Pew, how obvious, I’m an idiot.

    “He was at a thing called the Mid Winter Ball, which sounds like some kind of version of America’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, except for how it’s not aired for public consumption.”

    And except for how it’s actually attended by an executive branch chief with a sense of humor.

  • azeyote

    it’s mocking or cringing and mocking is better for self preservation –

  • fawkedifiknow

    Their celebrities and television stars use the Australian colloquialism “I grab them by the down unders”, just as an example of how we talk differently so often.

  • thewalkindude

    Surprisingly, this wasn’t at a Trump casino-

    Imagine, if you would, how absolutely giddy you’d be if you won a $43 million jackpot while playing a casino slot machine. You could burn a lot of bridges with that amount of cash.

    Then imagine the opposite feeling you’d get when the casino tells you there was a “malfunction” and, hence, you’re not getting that jackpot even though the slot machine lit up and said it was “printing cash ticket $42,949,672.76.”

    That really happened in August 2016 to Katrina Bookman, who is now suing the Resorts World Casino in Queens County Supreme Court, demanding that she get her payout from the Sphinx slot machine.

    • John Resistant Tovarich Smith

      The only malfunction was that no one was supposed to win.

    • alpacapunchbowl

      Did they at least offer her something? There’s a good chance she wouldn’t be suing if they had honored at least part of it.
      In other news, whatever casino manager made that dumdum decision is going to be Dolt 45’s next cabinet pick.

      • thewalkindude

        A steak dinner and a $2.25 credit for the money she had remaining on her spins

        • alpacapunchbowl

          Seems fair.

    When Trump first said the whole world is laughing at us, it was not true, but it clearly is now.

      • Latverian Diplomat

        “That was different. This time, it’s ME!”
        — Donald Trump

  • We could impeach this fucker tomorrow, but the stank he’s rubbed all over America’s standing in the world is never going to entirely scrub out. It’s like when someone barfs inside of a car.

    • miss_grundy

      Good. Then that stink will be a reminder to everyone about the importance of voting–especially Democrats. It doesn’t matter what the polls say, even if they are saying your candidate will win. You get your butt out of the chair, get the keys to the car and you go vote or walk to your polling place. BUT YOU GO AND VOTE.
