Brandi Kruse at today's "antifa violence roundtable" at the White House: "This is one of the reasons I recovered from it. By the way, it’s much better to not have TDS. I’m happier, healthier, more successful. I even think I got a little more attractive after I got rid of my Trump Derangement System"

Cult Member of The Day goes to White House Communications Director Steve Cheung:

“President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives. He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will."

Dear Trump supporters,

Your cult leader got his Covid and flu vaccines on Friday.

Because he doesn't actually believe a lot of the shit he tells you brain-dead rubes.

Eric Feigl-Ding @drericding.bsky.social · 16h

Guess who just got both the updated COVID vaccine and flu shots today? Your dear Leader Trump. Maybe you should get them too.

This Day in History...

October 11, 2002: Former President Jimmy Carter wins Nobel Peace Prize for decades of humanitarian work.

Today: Donald J. Trump will continue whining that he hasn't received a Nobel, as if they're participation trophies awarded to international pariahs.

I'm no expert on administration of the Nobel Peace Prize but I'm pretty sure cult members don't get to just award it to their leaders.

Rep. Buddy Carter: "Donald Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. That's why I'm introducing a resolution today that will honor him with the Nobel Peace Prize."

Naturally, if Joe Biden or Barack Obama allowed Qatar to build an airbase here after accepting a $400 million bribe, Republicans would be totally OK with it.

Hegseth: "I'm also proud that today we're signing a letter of acceptance to build a Qatari Emeri air force facility at the Mountain Home Airbase in Idaho."

#Satire (Or not)

Urging his irate loyalists to “stop the steal,” Trump declared, “If you want to win the Nobel Peace Prize, you’ve got to fight like hell.”

In a brief public statement, the Norwegian Nobel Committee said, “What a fucking baby.”

Mango Unchained doesn't given *damn* about the Venezuelan people or their fight for freedom.

The only reason he's posting this is because Machado mentioned his name and he's hoping for some reflected glory off her Nobel Peace Prize.

It's all... about... him. Always.
