Trump Vision of Grift

Quiz Time, people.

What do Dotard, Melania, Junior and Eric think the blockchain is?

A) A device to restrict a dog on a walk
B) A valuable necklace with which to show off at a party
C) That emergency thingee to pull to stop a train

Whatever the right answer is, the Trumps have suddenly realized or been told that the blockchain can provide a new line of criminality for them. To remind you, they (Dotard, Junio, Eric and Ivanka) were just forced some time ago to close down their “children’s charity” which was shown to have nothing to do with children or charity (okay, except charity for Dotard’s children). They also had to commit to never running a charity again.

But that still leaves Melania free to grift, and so with big fanfare, Melania Visions was announced yesterday. These will be sold as NFTs on the Solana blockchain (SOL) which is a bitcoin-style monkey business, only monkey-er.

Melania Trump’s first NFT offering is a watercolor depiction of her “cobalt blue eyes”. The announcement says it would provide “the collector with an amulet to inspire.” Each NFT will cost 1 SOL, about $187 yesterday. A “portion” of the proceeds will go to children’s charities. Ha ha ha, Melania, we think we’ve heard that one before. Next joke, please (to quote Martina N). Okay, I suppose 1% is also a “portion”.

Next year, the former first lady said she will offer NFTs in a “a one-of-a-kind auction of historical importance” that will include “digital artwork, physical artwork, and a physical one-of-a-kind accessory.” She did not elaborate.

She did not elaborate,but I will try. Be wary of buying these “eyes”. Their value could go up, but could easily crash based on which other Melania body parts are going to be sold as NFTs. Okay, if after the eyes, we get the ears and then a long wait, the eyes may well climb to 10 SOL. Maybe then we get the nose, the mouth, the chin?

But “physical artwork” is a typical Trumpian type of description, leaving a lot to the imagination. So once we move away from the face to other more interesting “physical artworks”, those eyes may well crash below 1 SOL.

So advice for investors: avoid, unless you are a MAGAss and want it as a souvenir or something to pray to your God Dotard, Blessed Be His Name.

Trump Toilets Inc.

(If you like this, read other posts on my blog. Or follow my blog to get updates when I post something new. Its free 😀) So the world’s most powerful man has now turned his attention to something that apparently urgently needs his intervention. Did you think it was Russia policy, or North Korea  policy, or social security, or health care? Not at all - but something far more important than that in this age - Toilets. Yes, toilets. That’s not a joke. The President of the United States, the Chosen One, Blessed be His Name, spent 15 minutes raging on about toilets, and how because of regulations, people need to flush 10-15 times. Well, he should know. With all the shxt that comes out of his mouth, I wonder if even 10-15 times is enough to flush it down. So away with those useless Obama toilets and let’s have real Trump Toilets - “I know more about Toilets than anybody - nobody can make Toilets as good as I can”. Maybe he’s already thinking about his next business opportunity. But afte

GQP Gun violence "solutions "

  Here is a partial list of “solutions” proposed by GQP Senators and reps, Fox News pundits, and other rightwing, soulless axxholes yesterday, each followed by my comments in brackets. - Give children bullet-proof backpacks. 1 Senator even suggested parents should buy children those instead of toys.  (They don’t wear backpacks in school. How about full bulletproof clothing? Why not give them full body armour? Heck, after your abortion laws have passed, make baby body armour compulsory - straight from the womb to safety). - why can’t we have security like at airports - with full body and backpack screening? (Well, the US has around 5000 airports, and about 150000 schools. They can’t even find enough miserably paid TSA personnel for the airports - good luck for the schools. Of course, since red states are banning books, and firing teachers who dare to mention black or gay people, maybe that money saved can be used to finance those scanners and the people to man them) - From Dan Patrick a

Understanding Talibangelicals

  In his big NBC interview shown yesterday, Dotard said it was a “big mistake” for DeathSantis to sign a 6 week abortion ban. Immediately, numerous pundits speculated that this could cause him to lose a lot of support in Iowa, the first-in-the-nation voters, where evangelicals dominate. And I thought - when will these guys learn? To use a formulation from an interview Jon Stewart did with one of them some months ago, the Talibangelicals don’t give a “flying fvck” about supposedly religious teaching - it’s all about power. To learn from the Brothers Karamazov again, if Jesus came back to earth tomorrow and criticized the Dotard, the Talibangelicals and the MAGA crowd would crucify him without a second thought. When you love and worship a rapist and pornstarfvcker, no other religious norms are going to stop you. ——————- To be very clear, this is true of ALL rulers who rely on religion to keep them in power - whether it’s Putin and Orban defending White Christianity, the Taliban in Afghan
