Or a manager of a china (as in porcelain) shop. "Yeah, I'm the president of China... and fine dining utensils incorporated in Chattanooga Tennessee"
Four Seasons......
....
....
....
Total Landscaping. And then, the country elected him again.
With the way things are operating, I'm pretty sure you could get into the White House or Mar-a-Lago easily if a few people rolled up in a rented fancy towncar, suits, suitcase and someone to act as a translator.
I remember mike pillow enthusiastically taking a live call thinking it was the orange garbage only to find out it's a troll.
The illegitimate son of Puyi and rightful Emperor of Ghyna... Or that's just what his business card says.
They'd just give such a rando some actual position after the fact to save face
Perhaps with an Asian femboy 🤨
Diplomatic backchannels are an idea that Trump is fundamentally unable to comprehend.
China: "We haven't met yet"
China: <backchannels talks so they all get on the same page"
Trump: "China lies, we met this morning when they backchanneled their plans to replace the USD with me and I think it's a fine idea."
"Backchannels? Sounds gay. I'll sign an Executive Order banning it."
Like I'm gonna believe anything he says. This guy was able to hide his own Easter Eggs from himself.
Sure donny… are the Chinese diplomats in the room with us right now?
Fucker mistook the Chinese takeout menu for minutes of their last meeting.
Well they're at least listening in on the signal chat.
So, we know thats not true.
There are at least some 30 million American voters who would believe Trump uncritically.
Trump met his imaginary China diplomats in his imaginary meeting that happened "this morning".
Beijing is like 15 hours ahead of Washington, if meeting was "this morning", the Chinese would be discussing with Trump at like 11 in the evening or even later. I somehow find it hard to believe China could be bothered to discuss with Trump about his dumb shit so late in the day when they could be sleeping or watching a late evening movie with family lol
They could totally Chinpokomon Trump.
Dibs on Shoe.
Uh huh
I.e. his covefe boy stopped for lunch at Panda Express
I'm starting to think that Trump is lying.
Definitely the most sane and stable
Like kids at the kindergarten
Ok someone needs to tell the failure-in-chief that getting his breakfast McDonalds brought by the underpaid Asian they brought in from his New Jersey golf course doesn't count as Chinese trade talks.
Had me in the first half, ngl.
Someone gave him a busy box. 👶
I hope they get paid.
