Hate to contradict you my love, but that's a pince nez

A duvet is when a theatrical performance happens on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon

I hate to be "that guy" and tell you this, but that's a bouquet.

A duvet is a pair of glasses that don't have earpieces, they just rest and pinch on the bridge of your nose.

Sorry, hon. That’s a parfait.

A duvet is a careful picked bunch of cut flowers, often given as a gift or set as decoration.

MAGA before: Why shouldn't our lord and savior Pres. Trump take a million dollar plane as a gift from Qatar? He deserves it and so much more!

MAGA today (from what I'm being told): We are opening a Qatari air force facility in Idaho? How did that happen!?!?

They weaponize awards for peace because the Toddler-in-Chief is jealous that a black man who held the office of POTUS got one, and he hasn't.

Those who seek the award, should never be allowed to get it. Now his buddies try to discredit it. Snowflakes all. #SoreLoser #ToddlerInChief #TrumpUnfit

Trump thanks Putin for saying he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

First, congratulations to María Corina Machado!

Second, I'm afraid this will only make Donny escalate his attacks on Venezuela boats. Maybe even start ground or air offenses.

Yes, he's that petty and thin skinned.

I have no knowledge about how the Nobel committee selects the winners of the peace prize. But I have to believe that they would take all the pain and suffering Trump is causing to immigrants and citizens here, in his own country, into account and tell Donny to go to hell.
