Is he dead yet?

Last edited Fri Apr 24, 2026, 07:32 AM - Edit history (1)

Finally "panicked," the way Meidas Touch has been claiming daily for years, and he stroked out?

Sleepily tripped over the Chief Justice while Roberts was prostrating himself before his owner?

Tried to invade LEGOLAND over those Iran videos, suffered an aneurysm while searching for it on the globe?


Just fucking died already for literally any reason at all?

Corrected.

I don’t follow either, but every day the front page highlights trump’s “panic,” “humiliation,” or “chaos in the White House,” none of which ever seem to bear fruit.

from Meidas that pop up in my feed that "Trump panics".

Though I see in the past 24 hours they have 3 podcasts/videos about "Trump Crashes Out"!

Going back through the list of their pods they seem to use "Trump panics" and "Trump Crashes Out" on an alternating basis.

When you hear a "breaking NEW" podcast starting out this way 4 times a day, it 'kinda loses its intended impact, but credit for the thought, I guess. ;_

are going to be eventual mockery-worthy--maybe even on SNL. But, yes, Ben is quite intelligent and presents useful information that most of us don't have time to seek out in real time.

to that golf cart with him...and Lindsey Graham was caught up in the flaming "rescue mission" but wearing flammable clothing with an "effeminate flair" was pushed into the inferno by a nasty-assed "Drag Queen-hating" Steve Bannon & little Mikey Johnson. Rumor has it that the latter effort might have backfired with a widening inferno, but we shall see...
