Year: 2026
Short of a Full Deck
Donald Trump is finding that prosecuting a Mideast war is very hard,
Especially when you’re up against the ruthless Islamic Republican Guard.
Like he said from the beginning,
We’re not losing, we’re winning,
And as for the negotiations, Trump claims he holds “All the cards.”
Seoul Sleep-Over
When we think of South Korea, we think of boy bands rapping,
But every year in Seoul they hold an unusual happening.
City fathers were worried
That city life is too hurried,
So they created a festival that celebrates competitive napping.
What Ted Said 10 Years Ago
“I want to tell you what I really think of Donald Trump. This man is a pathological liar… He lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth… The man cannot tell the truth, but he combines it with being a narcissist at a level I don’t think this country has ever seen.”
— Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), 10 years ago today.
Chaos in the Republican Caucus
“We’re moving from one fire drill to the next every single week, and then half the time it feels like, why are we even here?”
— A House Republican, quoted by MS NOW, on the chaos this week in the House Republican caucus.
Mystery Desert Shakeup
There were 17 temblors in 24 hours under the hot Nevada sun,
That’s an unusual number of earthquakes — ask almost anyone.
And what of those dead and missing scientists,
Providing fodder for weirdo conspiracists,
But conspiracy theories and mysteries have always surrounded Area 51.
Disapproval of Trump’s Iran War on a Par with Vietnam, Iraq
61%
President Trump’s war in Iran is as unpopular among Americans as the Iraq War during the year of peak violence in 2006 and the Vietnam War in the early 1970s, according to a Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll. Sixty-one percent of Americans say that using military force against Iran was a mistake, with fewer than 2 in 10 Americans believing that the U.S. actions in Iran have been successful.
Trumponomics Hits New Low Approval
30%
A new AP-NORC poll finds President Trump’s approval rating on the economy dropped to 30% in April — down from 38% in March.
It’s Construction Mania
Trump The Builder is involved in a number of construction projects,
There’s the ballroom, the Kennedy Center and the Arch, among prospects.
Imelda Marcos and Hitler had the same malady,
Which features a futile grasp at immortality,
And now Donald Trump is showing unmistakeable symptoms of an edifice complex.
