It’s Wednesday…
President Shitshow’s public schedule for…

9:00 AM – “In-Town Pool Call Time”
Translation: reporters show up, wander around, stare at walls, and wait to see if he emerges from his lair. Riveting stuff. America runs on Dunkin; this guy runs on vibes and resentment.
2:00 PM – “The President participates in a Roundtable – Closed Press”
Closed press, naturally. Wouldn’t want any cameras capturing whatever fresh nonsense he spits out when he forgets the microphones aren’t supposed to be on. The Roosevelt Room must be exhausted by now.
5:00 PM – “The President greets Pastors – Closed Press”
Ah yes, the sacred ritual where he pretends he’s never cheated on all his wives, paid off a porn star, or openly bragged about both. Pastors get closed-press so they can silently communicate “what have we done” without it ending up on cable news.
News Rewind
After weeks of pressure to get President Idiot Aboard to pretend he cares about domestic issues, he finally ventured out to a casino resort in Pennsylvania to brag about his “achievements” on the economy. Because nothing says fiscal responsibility like delivering policy remarks in a building designed to separate people from their money.
Farmer Bailout Cost us Nothing!

President Brags About Spending Other People’s Money:
I just helped our farmers out because they’re starting to do really well. But in order to try and negotiate, some countries played a little cute and we just gave them right out of a tariff money. Of course, there’s nothing right out of the billions, hundreds of billions that we’ve taken in, we gave the farmers a little help, $12 billion, and they are so happy.
And they all want is a level playing field and now it’s happening and the tariffs are making them rich. It’s going to be — you’re going to see what happens over the next two years.

For argument’s sake, let’s pretend the money really does come from “tariff money.” It’s still our money. Foreign governments don’t pay the damn tariffs — we do. So, yes, this bailout cost us money.
Make Do With Less So Me and My Rich Friends Can Get Richer!
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing… pic.twitter.com/aHYTqkg5jy

We need — the one thing you need, you need steel. You know, you can give up certain products. You can give up pencils, because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need one or two. They don’t need that many, but you always need steel. You don’t need 37 for your daughter. Two or three is nice, but you don’t need 37 dolls.
So we’re doing things right.
Roll Call.com. 12/09/2025.
In trying to find any information on the stupid China only gives out 37 pencils comment, I found a post from The Morning Sun that said; Trump spoke from a 1,200-capacity ballroom at the Mount Airy Resort and Casino in the Pocono Mountains for what White House officials have suggested would be a kickoff to promote Trump’s economic policies – and an attempt to wrangle an issue that has become a political liability ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
Yes, I know it’s a silly detail to fixate on — the pencils — but I wanted to know where it came from. Unfortunately, my search turned up nothing useful, which is extra comforting given that our military will apparently be relying on Google’s AI to help make battle plans.
When the phrase “eat the rich” starts making the rounds again — and it will, because it always does — just remember why people say it. Apparently us peasants are supposed to make do with fewer dolls, while the wealthy go buy more houses nobody but them can afford.
Shows incredible lack of empathy.

President Who Can’t Even Fake Empathy:
She was 20 years old, perfect. She was just getting a little promotion. They were so proud of her. She was on her way up and she was shot in the head. The brain, shot in the brain, shot in the head. They were able to keep her alive long enough for her parents to come in from West Virginia and say goodbye to her. And Andrew is the second one who’s also from West Virginia National Guard.
Racists Gonna Racist
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch … we ought to get her the hell out … she's here illegally."

President Racist:
Please raise your hand if you’re from Minnesota. You know, that’s called the Great Big Minnesota scam with one of the dumbest governors ever in history. I love this Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is, with the little Ching, the little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but complain. She’s always complaining.She comes from her country where it’s considered about the worst country in the world, right? They have no military. They have no nothing. They have no Parliament, they don’t know what the word Parliament means. They have nothing, they have no police. They police themselves; they kill each other all the time.
I love it; she comes to our country and she’s always complaining about the Constitution allowing her to do this or that. We ought to get her the hell out. She married her brother in order to get in, right? She married her brother. Can you imagine if Donald Trump married his sister? Beautiful, she’s a beautiful person.
If I married my sister to get my citizenship, you think I’d last for about two hours, or would it be something less than that? She married her brother to get in, therefore she’s here illegally. She should get the hell out, throw her the hell out. She does nothing but complain.
[Audience chants: “Send her back.”]
Roll Call.com. 12/09/2025.
SNOPES (12/08/2025): 14 rumors about Ilhan Omar, investigated; As we have repeatedly reported, the claim that she married her brother lacks credible evidence.
The rumor first appeared in 2016.
Maybe he should listen to some voices not in his own head…
Spencer Cox: "I disagree with Congresswoman Omar. I think she should be voted out of it. I think I can do that without attacking her religion or race or ethnic background. I know that the president disagrees with me … he's not interested in uniting the country." pic.twitter.com/D5DdzdLjZD

Because he did so well in the event he decided to post a novel on “Lies” social to say anyone questioning his health might be committing treason.

There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before.
In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country.
In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all.
Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now!
After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it.
They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Unhinged. 12/09/2025.
It’s wild that a grown man is as insecure as the sitting President.
